Crafting with Kids

I am going to give you some information about casino bonuses and why you should be wary of accepting them. On the face of it, a bonus obviously sounds very good and it can lure people to online casinos easily.

A popular thing to see on an online casino’s website is some sort of appealing slogan, promising hundreds of dollars free with any deposit. The way the casinos advertise these bonuses you would think that they were just giving you free money.

Thinking sensibly, is it actually possible that you will simply be given this money with no strings attached?. Of course they wont, the bonus comes attached with some very firm rules.

The usual process is you make a deposit, then the casino will give you a bonus to match it, this can be anything up to $500. You can’t just simply cash it out though, you need to play with it and meet wagering requirements.

Usually, the amount you must wager is 40 times more than your bonus. Therefore, if you are only given a bonus of $200, you will then have to go and bet $8000 simply just to cash this out. With this in mind the bonus suddenly doesn’t sound very attractive does it?.

Things get worse, if you intend to play roulette or blackjack the bets you place won’t count towards the wagering requirements. This is because games like roulette have safe bets which you could use to complete the wagering requirements.

If you try and withdraw money before completing the wagering requirements the casino will take the bonus off you and class your withdrawal as void. The bonus offer is nothing but a con used to lure you into an online casino.

There are other requirements that you also need to meet, including playing on slot machines and games such as this which have a very low win rate. My advice is to simply not bother accepting the bonus; you will save yourself a lot of hassle.
