The Quick Guide To Casino Bonuses
That Every Player Should Read.

For most players, the most important bonus, is the sign up bonus. There are two types of Signup Bonuses

  1. No Deposit Bonuses or NDBs
  2. Deposit Bonuses
The "other" bonuses, which a lot websites don't talk about, but is just as important as the Sign Up Bonuses are the Retention Bonuses.

No Deposit Bonuses or NDBs

A No Deposit Bonus, is a bonus which you receive without making a bonus.
They can range from $5-$25. NDBs come with higher then usual requirements if you want to withdraw your winnings.

Meaning, that if you say win $500 with your $10 NDB - there may be requirements.
You may have to wager x100 of your NDB (In this case $10 NDB x 100 = $1000).
So in this case, you need wager at least $1000 using the $10 NDB, to withdraw any winnings.

Some online casinos can also enforce a limit on how much of your winnings you can withdraw from your NDB.
This isn't so bad, because if a casino gives you $10 FREE as a NDB, and you complete the wagering requirements with money still in your casino account, you have money you can withdraw!
And you haven't spent a cent of your own money yet!

So why do casinos offer you NDBs? Well for casinos, its a great way for players to try out the casino, using real money, and hopefully even win!

Deposit Bonuses

Deposit Bonuses, are bonuses which you receive when you make a deposit.
A casino may offer you a 100% deposit bonus. That means, if you deposit $100, the casino will give you $100, having $200 to play with at the casino.

To withdraw the bonus $100 the casino has given you, you may need to wager x15-x35 of the bonus. But with the extra $100 you deposited to the casino, the wagering requires becomes 7.5x - 15x.

Deposit Bonuses are your best bet when it comes to winning at online casinos.

Retention Bonuses

Retention Bonuse are bonuses which casinos give you to keep you happy! Whether it be a bonus (whether NDB or Deposit Bonus) for a week to week promotion, a new game launch, a special day - retention bonuses are very important!

If a casino doesn't give you a bonus, ask them for one! You'd be surprised at how willing a good casino will be in giving you a bonus. If a casino won't give you a deposit bonus, consider changing casinos!
