Need advice about bonuses from experienced players :)

Hi everyone! :) 

I have a desire to play in a casino (I want to try different games, such as slots, roulette, and blackjack). I started looking for a casino and saw different bonus offers. There are many of them, so I decided to figure out what's what. Reading your forum I noticed that many players are looking for a no deposit bonus. I'm curious, why this one? I also see that there are often hidden conditions. How do you choose a bonus for yourself? How do you know that this one is good? What type of bonus is better to choose?

Also a question about the casino. I was looking at the list here on casino guru, I saw a lot of filters. What do you pay attention to when you choose a casino? Let's say I choose a bonus, but I do not know anything about this casino. What helps you know that this is the place to play?

I would be very grateful for your help :)

Hi Radka! :) Thanks for the reply!

I read all this information and understood the difference between the bonuses. Also about the casino, I see the parameters and understand what they are responsible for. But, unfortunately, it doesn't answer my questions :) I am interested in why the no deposit bonus is chosen by players, as it seems to be quite unprofitable on some points. As for me, the deposit bonus looks more attractive. But everyone is looking for a no deposit bonus, why?)

Thanks! :)

Hi tamtrum46,

Ok, allow me to be more specific and share my point of view 😁.

I think, that most player reflects the "no deposit" keyword. The rest comes up only if you manage to pass the wagering and gain some profit. So it's not an immediate concern.

But the magic lies in the fact, that you register in the casino, gain the bonus and after a few minutes, you are ready to spin and possibly win! Sounds awesome, doesn't it?

I think that there are far too few no-deposit bonuses truly worth the try.

Why do players prefer deposit bonuses?

I'd say that it's probably because you gain a wider pool while utilizing the deposit bonus, it means a better chance to win big if you adjust your stakes accordingly.

With the no-deposit bonus, you must stick to the maximum bet limit, you can mostly play only on slots and if you manage to win, you usually have to make the deposit to be able to withdraw...(!)

Did I answer your question? 🙂

Thanks for the answer, Radka! :)

Indeed, "no deposit" sounds cool, but when I read the conditions for wagering I get scared)))) Also, for the sake of testing, I decided to try 2 no deposit bonuses in different casinos and I managed to win quite a lot of money. When I looked at the conditions to win them back, they seemed to me cosmic. But I have a suspicion that this "luck" was just to grab me. Once I start wagering, that kind of luck won't be there anymore. But having already spent some of the money I won't have much choice. That is, it looks like nothing more than a trap to me. Am I wrong? :) So, it seems to me that just playing with your money would make more sense (unless you have a fat wallet). Or at least use the deposit bonus :)

Can I make an assumption that other players are just chasing free "cheese", not paying attention to the conditions, and how to get it? Is that the only reason why the no deposit bonus is so popular? Or I don't understand something and there are other reasons?

I also thought that players take it to try this or that casino. But there are free game options.

In any case, you made some clarity on this for me :) Thanks! :) I would like to players to tell their opinion, but they somehow are not very active here))) Just shouting "give me a bonus"))).

What about the casino? I know we have a few "officials" in Ukraine. And if I see another casino that I like? Again, how does a player know it's safe? I know that there are licenses, but they do not tell me anything, unfortunately. There are standard parameters that all have (payment methods, payout time, customer support, and others), but from my observations, they are quite similar from casino to casino. What other parameters can be used to determine that the casino is good? 

Thank you! :)

I'm sorry, one more point. You say, "I think that there are far too few no-deposit bonuses truly worth the try." Why is that?

It's because of the rules and conditions that apply to the bonuses. You get the bonus for free, but casinos make it extremely difficult for you to win any real money from it and when you're lucky and win something, then the max. withdrawal is almost always capped so you get only a fraction of your original winnings.

Hi there 😁!

I'm happy this topic cached your deep attention 😀.

Just think about the no deposit bonuses as a tool used by casinos to lure players and make them make deposits.

It's simple as that. Hence I agree with you that it's much more reasonable to take some sticky bonus added to your own funds occasionally, keeping a close eye on wagering and the max cashout, rather than constantly hunting for free spins.

I'd say that there is a fair portion of players preferring deposit bonuses over getting anything "for free".

We're working on a fresh new feature to allow players to start their own surveys or polls, so you should get a better chance to ask fellow players soon, I hope 🤩.

And what about the casino?

Aside from all the parameters you already mentioned, how about using some no deposit bonus to check the casino a bit in advance? Ask the live chat about terms, and restrictions, make your own picture. Don't want to say "use their own weapon against them", but I think you catch my meaning. 😀

You can learn more about how we review casinos and take it as an example:

Thank you, Radka and Daniel! :) You've cleared up a lot for me about bonuses and casinos :) And about the feature with surveys from users, that's just great :) I look forward to testing it out! :)
