THE WORKINGS OF NO DEPOSIT CASINOS.

What are no deposit casinos?

These are generally internet websites that offer players opportunities to gamble by wagering
and winning real money. These no deposit casinos often offer bonuses to their best players in
the hope that they will return to gamble some more. Even though giving of bonuses may be
deemed bad for business as it represents a loss on the part of the casino, the tactic is seem a
way to beat competition from both land based casinos and other competition online casino for
the players. In essence the players do not require any deposits in order to join and participate
in wagering in these casinos.

Why give incentives?

Similar to the case in traditional brick casinos, online casinos have to offer incentives to their
best players thus keep them coming back. In the former case, physical casinos would offer food
and drinks as incentives but in online casinos, cash bonuses are offered to the best players as an
incentive. Though this may seem as a loss to the casino, the goal of making profits in online
casinos is attained by keeping your best players coming back due to the presence of numerous
competition online casinos. Other casinos may give away free chips meaning that the players do
not require identification to join these casinos.

Requirents.

Since these casinos do not require any cash input to join on top of the bonuses offered, the
process of joining is quite easy. Identification may be required in some instances but in most
cases no identification is required. The only essential tool for validating one’s membership is
the age. It is stipulated expressly in the laws of most countries that for one to participate in
gambling they must be atleast a certain set legal age. In some states in the U.S.A the age is as
low as 16 years while in others as high as 21 years.

Problems encountered by no deposit casinos.

The biggest threat to the no deposit casinos’ existence is the problem of bonus abusers. These
are generally unscrupulous individuals out there with the sole aim receiving bonuses an then
afterwards taking having practically looted the house clean. On the other hand non
requirement of identification may prove tricky in following up the individuals and this also does
not guarantee of the players’ loyalty to the casino. Due to the nature of tansactions over the
internet there are usually trust and reliability issues that may make the traditional gambler view
these casinos with skeptism.

Safeguarding against the problems.


In combating this issues addressed above, the casinos may decide to restrict the number of
household joining their sites to just one i.e. one IP address in order to curb the problem of
bonus abusers. Also, the casino may for blanket punishment as a way of preventing excess
traffic from one region. In this case the casinos refuse to accept memberhips from a particular
region. Though this may seem harsh on the part of genuine gamblers, it is the most effective
tool in curbing the bonus sbusers menace.
