How to Claim Casino Bonuses?

Before you start chasing after every bonus you see, it’s wiser to study which types of bonuses are there and which ones suit you best. The first kind of bonus you are likely to encounter is the welcome bonus, the first one to be offered after you sign up. It is often called the first-deposit bonus, as well.

This is a match deposit bonus, the one where the casino matches your deposit up to a certain percentage, most frequently 100%. This way, you get double your deposit to play with. Other kind of match deposit bonuses is the reload bonus, which may be offered right after the first deposit. In other words, on your second, third etc.

Casinos also offer free spins bonuses on slots, which can come as part of the welcome package or at any point as a promotional deal. On occasions, casino operators will offer no deposit bonuses – a small match percentage to motivate players to register, or a set of free spins. One doesn’t need to make a real money deposit to win this bonus, only complete the registration.

Cashback bonuses are also available, although not as often as free spins or match deposit bonuses. When you receive a cashback bonus, you will be able to gain a percentage of your losses from a certain period, for instance, from the previous week.

Bonuses can take the form of tournaments and cash giveaways, where players must play certain games and achieve certain results to win a share of the prize pool or a reward (a vacation, a smartphone, a cruise and the like).

To take advantage of the best bonuses, you need to do your research and find all the good, recommendable casino sites to consider joining. There are no benefits of casino bonuses if the venue you are playing at is unreliable or, worse yet, unlicensed.

You need to make sure that your preferred casino has a valid license from a trusted regulator, that it pays out winnings timely and without unreasonable limitations, that it provides a helpful support service and has a rich promotions page with loads of bonuses to pick from.

Once you have decided where to play, the next step is to sign up and register an account. This is generally an easy process; it starts with clicking on the button which is usually in the top right corner of the website that says “Sign Up” or “Register”.

This will activate the registration form and you will be asked to fill it with specific information. Some personal information may be asked of you, such as your name, birth date, address and phone number.

As soon as the form is complete, the casino software will automatically send a verification email to the address you’ve shared and attached to your account. Go to your email, click on the activation link and you’re good to go.

All casino bonuses are, in one way or another, dependent on real money deposits (the only exception is the no deposit/sign up bonus). So, in order to become eligible for any type of bonus, including the welcome bonus, you need to go to the cashier, pick a deposit method out of the list of available options and finalize a successful deposit.

With the deposit credited to your account, the welcome bonus should be added automatically, as well. Sometime, you may need to confirm as you approve the transfer that you indeed wish to claim the welcome bonus.

At some online casinos, bonuses are attached to coupon codes, combinations of letters and numbers that you need to type in to confirm that you wish to redeem the bonus.

The bonus codes are normally published alongside the bonus offer description, so just copy them and enter them where needed. Make sure you use the code which corresponds to the specific bonus you’re about to redeem.

You can’t go wrong if you follow the instructions given by the casino. Each bonus deal and promotion comes with a description and a list of requirements and conditions. Read the text to find out how to qualify for a bonus and how to claim it, in case there is something specific you need to do.

Perhaps there could be time frames you need to abide by or deposit limitations. When you claim free spins bonuses, you may not be able to use them on any game, but specific machines predetermined by the casino. There are all details to pay attention to.

It is vital to be aware of the terms and conditions of a casino bonus before redeeming it. Make sure you read all there is about the offer you’re interested in, especially the small font. Also, read the casino’s general bonus policy. Pay special attention to bonus wagering conditions.

The wagering requirements represent the number of times the bonus (and often the deposit) amount must be wagered at the casino before the bonus fund become available for withdrawal. The fewer times you need to wager, the more favorable the bonus.
