Choosing a casino with low wagering requirements shall take less time and lower the risk. It’s important that you check out the ‘terms and conditions’ of the bonus offer by clicking through to the casinos promotion page and then the ‘terms and conditions’ page. The important parts to note here will be the WAGERING REQUIREMENTS and also the EXCLUDED GAMES (normally roulette). Even though the bonus list is generally kept up-to-date, it is still vital that you check yourself. Generally the terms will say something along the lines of ”the deposit and bonus must be wagered X times before withdrawal”. If is says 5 times for example as well as the offer is ‘deposit 50 get 50 free’, then therefore 500 must be wagered before you decide to withdraw.

Choose between the download as well as the no-download (sometimes called flash or java) versions. Over a 56k standard modem a download shall take around 25 minutes and about 2 minutes on a broadband connection. ‘No-download’ games should load up pretty quickly however the game-play is usually slower. If you decide to download then remember where you have saved the file and when it has finished double click on it and choose to save it to the directory it suggests. If you’re using an Apple Mac it’s quite likely that you’ll only be able to play the no-download (flash/java) versions.

Register a ‘play for real’ or ‘real money account’. Remember to fill out all the correct details and also the address where your credit/debit card is registered to. If you are offered a choice of Ł or $ play, and if the bonus offer will be the same for both (which is normally the situation), it’s a good idea to pick Ł (GBP) should you have a sterling bank account- you can find unlikely to be any transaction fees and also the bonus will be worth over 50% more. Make sure you make note of your account name/number. The software will run slightly quicker if you have a broadband or network internet connection and Remember to turn the sound off from the options menu as this significantly speeds up play. If you have downloaded the software, it’s also advisable to change the video options (generally within the options menu) to either ‘run in window’ or ‘standard resolution’ to improve the speed as well as the graphics.

Find out how to claim the promotion. With ‘Boss media’, ‘Real Time Gaming’ and ‘Playtech’ software, the bonuses are generally automatically added upon deposit. With ‘Microgaming’ software, you often have to fill out a claim form found on the our website and enter within your user name as well as a promotion code. Occasionally these might take up to 24 hours to be credited. Don’t start playing ahead of the bonus has been credited as this will not count towards your required wagering amount.

You should always try and keep a rough track of how much you have wagered. There is usually a facility to check the amount you’ve bet* and they’re going to always tell you if you email their support address. How long the wagering on an offer takes depends a good deal on the software as well as the stake per hand used and how well you know the tables.

In case you are losing, stop for a while, close down the casino and then come back. NEVER double your stakes to try and claw back losses. This is the quickest way to lose your money. Play with whatever stakes you feel at ease with, but I would suggest you go for $1 or $2 at first – if this is available. It may take longer but it makes the opportunity of a loss a lot less.

Once you have completed the wagering requirements you are free to stop and withdraw. If you have not kept an accurate tally of your wagers, email support and ask whether you have completed their wagering requirement – they are going to generally reply quickly. Go to cashier/bank section and cash within the full balance. DO resist the temptation to chase that next win. Note down the withdrawal codes and exactly your withdrawal amount. This is necessary to tell on your credit card statement who may have paid you and where the cheques in the post have come from.

Do not try and register and claim a bonus with the exact same casino twice. They are going to know your IP address and could deny you your winnings. Some casinos might also prevent more than one account per household being opened. Check in the conditions if this may be an issue.

Cash all foreign cheques in bundles. Often casinos will pay back the winnings by cheque (with the original deposit being refunded to the credit card). Do not pay them in one at a time as nearly all of banks charge a set fee no matter the amount of cheques cashed. BY FAR the simplest way of dealing with casino deposits and withdrawals is through NETELLER which works a bit like an American checking account. Occasionally as part of a security check, online casinos may ask for some verification documentation, usually a statement showing the address and also a drivers license/ID card or passport. It’s a great idea to scan these in to your computer and have them saved in your email account (e-mail them to yourself) to speed up proceedings.

Keep an excel spreadsheet log of all the casinos you have completed, their bonus and minimum wagering requirements, deposit amounts, and the way much you have won/lost. Keeping accurate records will speed up your payout process and keep you from getting casinos mixed up. Make sure you add up all your winnings too! The only way to beat the online casinos is by making the most of their bonus offers. Since you start ahead, the goal must be to stay ahead.
