How to Choose an Online Casino - FF Gambling (original) (raw)

There are so many casinos out there. They all have shining banners, catchy slogans, and hefty bonuses for players. To a newcomer, they all seem the same. However, there are striking differences among casinos. Some will meet your preferences while others would be no-go options.

Since it is not easy to choose where you want to play, this is how to choose an online casino:

Your location

It may be true that no one on record has been arrested on the ground of gambling. However, there are state and federal laws that make banks uncomfortable when transacting with gambling sites. Due to stringent laws, many casinos and software developers were forced to pull out of the US gambling market. You should check and ascertain that the casino you are likely to choose is US-friendly. It could be disappointing to win only to mean hurdles when making your transactions.

Your gaming devices

Some casinos are still stuck with desktop sites for their games. This would mean those with tablets and smartphones cannot play here. Others have both desktop and mobile device-friendly sites. Do not assume that all casinos will be compatible with your computing devices; you need to confirm.

Reputation and trust

Do not leap of faith with any casino. You should first see their 5-year track record before you decide to game with them. You would want to know how their customer service is and if they have any issues with payments. Reputable casinos will always go out of their way to best serve their customers.

Bonuses

It is a standard rule that you get 100% bonus on your first deposit in all casinos. Most casinos will also cover the first four or five deposits with bonuses. This takes good care of the small depositors. However, do not blindly fall for these bonuses. Some of them will clear fast leaving you cash-strapped. Be sure the bonuses are in good faith before you make your choice.

Games and gaming software

Each casino has a different set of games. Wagers will be attracted to different games. You should choose a casino that has games you love to play. If not, you move to the next until you meet your match.

Worth noting is that casinos run on a range of software. The likes of Real-time, Microgaming and Plat tech are some of the big software developers in this industry. The software will give you a different experience. You are bound to have a favorite from the lot. Going forward, you will only choose casinos with that kind of software.

Depositing method

For international players, this might not be an issue. There are plenty of options for them. However, for US gamers the options are limited. You should check whether the casino accepts credit card deposits. It is equally important that you get familiar with their terms and conditions. You could be walking into a trap.

Do not just pick any casino and throw your money at it. Know what you are walking into. I hope this post has been of help when it comes to choosing the best online casino.
