[POLL] Signing up for new online casinos

[5W-KILO]

When you are going to sign up for a new casino, do you think about your signup and how it is processed (a referral or not)? Do you think about it as supporting fellow members or is it something that never crosses your mind? I used to be somebody who doesn’t care when signing up for these sorts of services, but now I usually try to take advantage of signing up for something and use it as an opportunity to help someone I know with a referral. How about you?

I am the type who bounce from one online casino to another simply because they have alot of offers and bonuses to offer, most times I am satisfied with a single or two online casinos with good reputation.

Somewhere I can deposit money and not worried that one day when I come back the website will stop working, somewhere I can see so many other gamblers talking about or promoting.

This is why I am always in debt to this forum for leading me right to the appropriate online casinos, I would be struggling still if I don't come on this forum for many reasons like gambling, investment and crypto advices.

When it comes to which method of how I usually register on crypto casinos, to be honestly speaking, I will say that I don't have a particular method of how I have registered on these crypto casinos, because depending on the mood and what platform i am at the moment, i could decide to use the casino's url if im very familiar with it. Whereas if the casino happens to have an active presence on this forum, and i intend to register account on it, I might use the the link on the casinos official ANN thread on this forum, or also just click on the signature campaign of whoever i happen to come acros wearing the casino's signature.

If I'm signing up for a new casino, if someone who has already signed up in the same casino ask me to use his or her referral link to sign up I will gladly honor the request by signing up with the person referral link . I'm a person who will help a brother achieve his goal in whatever thing he's doing provided the thing is legit and I won't be wanted by the government after rendering a help to a brother.

I don't see using someone referral in signing up for a casino as helping a friend or even supporting forum members. There are alot of casinos who are coming up here and they all have different features and games depending on what they offers. I Casino may appear appealing to someone else but may not be appealling to me.Any casino that, I want to sign up on, I don't need to wait for the referral link of others I go and do the finding myself and if the said Casino is worth it I sign-up by myself.

I have the same attitude towards this matter. I don’t think there’s even much people who are still into this referral code stuffs. The only time I know forum members actually use the referral codes of others is probably when a campaign manager launches the casino’s campaign and maybe puts their own referral link on the signature campaign thread, so that way you’re automatically using the referral code when signing up for that casino (for those who requires you to sign up on the casino. Asides this, I’m not sure there are many people who actually pays attention to this.

Yes I would have to agree that if they have a good reputation on this forum I am more inclined to sign up and give them a go but if they dont in am more apprehensive with signing up because reputation is a big deal

We never lose anything by using a ref code, and sometimes the casino will gives us a bonus for being invited. I don't understand people that remove the referral for no reason

Referral is just like an icing on the cake, so it is not the real thing. Although I look at three things which are how close is the person to me, how persistent is the person that I should remember to use it and what is the percentage of the referral that the owner of the referral link will get. So if the percentage is small, I may not bother but if it is high then I will know that the benefit will be high for the person. For example, if referral bonus percentage is around 1-5%, then I may overlook it but if it climbs to around 20% +, I will use the link. But not using the link is to encourage the person to win and not to only rely on what bonuses to get from referral link.

On one crypto exchange, I've made more from referrals than from trading - and I'm not even an active referrer.
A friend and I arranged a cashback deal: I used his referral link, and he gave me back 50% of the bonus he got from my referral.
The problem with referral links is that you often get fake information from all kinds of “reviewers.” They don't care who uses their link, they don't play themselves, and they just take a cut of your gambling.

I really don't pay that kind of attention whenever I try to sign up through one of the gambling-related links found in the signature spaces of our users here.
^{- It's worth mentioning that I tend to stick to one or two casinos at most, while only signing up for testing purposes on others, so regardless of those links containing a referral ID, I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference to a fellow member.}

That is how strong communities are formed.  Imagine the difference in funds this community would receive if nobody used referrals for signups vs if everyone used referrals for signups.  Little things like that can make a big difference at scale.  This is just one reason why it is important to try and maintain a positive atmosphere in the community.  If people all work together it can benefit everyone in ways they don't even realize.  I think the gambling community here at bitcointalk is pretty strong and supportive.  That's why it has done so well.

Honestly I don’t really think about it, not like I have any problem with signing up with someone else’s referral code/link, I would if it’s just right in front of me, but going to look for someone’s referral before I sign in, simply because I wanna support them, that I haven’t done and that I’m not sure either if I’ll do because I honestly see it as a waste of my time.

I don’t think anyone will also want to go through that trouble just because they want someone to benefit from their signup. The only scenario in which it’s possible to search for someone to click on their ref link to use is if I’m unsure of the right URL to the casino, but I know someone who is a partner or should have the link. Only then can I search for them.

[Bitinity]

I dont really care about it, if someone ask me to register through his referral link then I can do it as long as I know him well. Otherwise, I will create an account directly from the link provided in the ANN thread of the casino but I will never ask someone for their referral link first. However, it will be good if you add one more option in the pool which is "using referral link because of a bonus offer". Out there, some streamers or reviewers may offer small bonuses, bigger rakeback (as part of a deal with the casino), or maybe an offer of referral commission share.

It’s a lot more easier to simply visit the casino directly if they already know their name. I think the best scenario where referral links usually works better is when someone you know or trust genuinely recommends that casino to you and also tells you why they enjoy using it and then maybe you buy it, then they can easily send their referral link to you, and not to expect people to just search for someone’s link simply because they want to help them earn some commission.

I won’t lie I don’t think about anything, if I come across a casino I like and I want to try it out, I just sign up and start using. I won’t start waiting or looking for referral codes to use to sign up just because I want to help someone but if I have a friend or someone who uses same casino and ask I should use their referral code, why not, I will do so because it doesn’t cost me anything. But if no one comes to me for that, I just go straight forward and sign up.

[Cointxz]

I usually type the URL directly since I’m always cautious on casino sign-up to avoid phishing scams. The only time I sign up using a specific URL is when I’m joining a contest which they require to join on that specific link.

I don’t really care for the referral link if someone trusted give it to me while I was originally play on that casino regardless with or without bonus.

Most user here probably just clicking the banner in the ANN thread during sign-up since that’s what I’m doing before when I’m still not too cautious.

I register in a casino to thrill myself so I don't really concern myself about referral links, I tend to ignore any features that is not necessary when registering on a casino, I like to get done with registration and explore their games. Ofcourse if a friend asks me to register through his referral link I can oblige him but I don't really care to register through somebody that I don't know, if it's not through somebody that I know very well I cannot use their referrals. Referrals for me is a secondary matter what matters primarily is the reputation of a casino, if I believe that a casino is trustworthy I can go ahead to register without bothering about their referrals or reading through their terms of service word for word.

Typing the URL is much better because the usual casino domain name is not complicated and easy to remember, which is more dangerous never do a search on Google or DuckDuckGo because the usual phishing sites are always in first place.

The search engines are sometimes misleading, unless they are careful which ones are official.

Most user here probably just clicking the banner in the ANN thread during sign-up since that’s what I’m doing before when I’m still not too cautious.

Including clicking on the signature banner, this is also a good reference, sometimes I also do that faster than than banner clicks.

Sometimes I give attention to referral benefits but not all the time. In a situation someone close to me refers me to any platform, my sign up includes his referral details so that the person can get that benefit otherwise I pay no attention to it. Using referral links can be beneficial to gamblers because it helps to increase your wallet balance, the bonus given to you will be used to gamble, and if you are lucky you can equally make some wins from it. If you are interested in getting bonuses through referral links or code, it is compulsory it must be a known person, there are reputable people, possibly some of these celebrities who promote casinos online, using their referral link too can equally increase your wallet balance when you make the required deposit.

[YellowSwap]

I don't think tooo much about anything gambling related, when I come across a good online casino I will just sign up and try it out, how much are we even talking about here? $2

I am in a good shape or safety shape to try out any online casinos that I feel like trying, the limit you go with online casinos the probability that you will be in safe hands.

Always risk what you can afford to lose especially if it's all about new online casino, what if they are scam but losing a dollar or two can't do me shit.

Absolutely right, and the most profitable thing is when a friend registers at an online casino using your link, and you register at another online casino or bookmaker using their link. Because it's essentially a win-win scheme. I also generally try to register using the links of friends and acquaintances, but I don't register using the links of strangers like influencers and bloggers. I don't care that I didn't help them, to be honest. In fact, recently a wealthy friend of mine registered using my referral link. But unfortunately, he didn't become my source of income, because he gambled at the casino once, albeit heavily, and then quit.

This is indeed the major concerns about signing up thru referral links and signature banners.
 
Because who knows, maybe there's some jerk spreading their malicious link thru those options mentioned.

That's why same as you I directly input the url of the site and try if its worth it to stay or not. But also situation is different if I know the person referred the casino and also if I know that the one he suggest is very popular. Because most probably I will sign up under his link, just to show respect with the person I know.
