Understanding Online Casino And Poker Room Bonuses
Casino bonuses are when a casino offers a bonus in the form of
free money or chips to players. These bonuses are used to entice
new players to come into the casino and play their favorite
games of chance. These bonuses are also given to current players
to thank them and to encourage them to return to play again at
another time.
Casinos offer the bonuses in two separate forms, the first
deposit bonus and the loyalty bonus.
The First Deposit Bonus
A first deposit bonus is when the casino gives the player money
to thank them for joining as a playing member. This casino bonus
is most often paid after the player has signed up and paid their
very first balance into their casino account. In some instances,
when the player makes an initial deposit the casino matches the
deposit. The matching bonus does have a limit, which is most
often set at one hundred dollars. At other times the bonus may a
percentage of the amount the player deposits.
Percentage deposits rarely exceed a maximum of fifty percent of
the player's deposit total. These percentage deposits may also
require a minimum deposit of two hundred fifty dollars or
better. Of course the deposit amounts and the matches put forth
by the casino will vary from one casino to another. Casino
bonuses also tend to change on occasion.
The Loyalty Bonus
Loyalty bonuses are given to casino clientele as a gesture of
appreciation for the continued patronage of the player. Usually,
these loyalty bonuses are given out on the first deposits made
in any given month. The percentage may be a fixed percentage, or
may increase slightly with continued month by month player
loyalty. Loyalty bonuses can also have a lower percentage per
bonus, but the bonus would be applied to every deposit made in
the month.
In exchange for the loyalty bonus, the casino has expectations
of the player. The player must agree to and abide by all casino
terms and regulations regarding conduct, accuracy of personal
information, and the conditions which apply when cashing in the
player's chips.
If a player accepts a bonus, they are expected to fulfill a
wager through requirement. A wager through requirement is a
clause which requires the player to bet a minimum amount of
money before they can qualify to receive the bonus. This
information is usually found in the casino's terms and
conditions statement.
