Big Casino Bonuses
Big Casino Bonuses
The world of online gaming is getting increasingly competitive, with many casinos and poker sites now offering big initial bonuses and referral perks to new members. Although tempting, some bonuses are better than others so make sure you read the fine print very carefully before signing up and depositing. There are many different types of bonus available but they generally fall into four bonus types.
Sign up bonus: As the name suggests, this is a bonus that is paid when you sign up as a new account holder. They take the form of either matching deposit amounts or set amounts. There are generally upper limits to these bonuses but they are often very generous.
Reload bonus: This is a bonus that is paid to existing account holders and paid after depositing additional funds into their account. As with the sign up bonuses, reload bonuses come in many different shapes and sizes including matching 1 for 2 and have quite generous maximums.
Referral bonus: Referral bonuses are paid when you refer a friend who opens a new account. The bonus is normally paid after the friend has earned a set number of points or played a set amount of money.
Bonus points: Many online casinos use a reward system whereby you earn reward point by playing. The more you play the more points you can earn. Some sites offer the bonus points site-wide, others pay bonus points only on designated games or at designated times. Bonus points can often be exchanged for money into your account, special bonus points games or tournaments, or merchandise.
Each site has its own rules determining how and when bonuses are earned and paid. Some of the more ambitious sites usually try to be very aggressive and offer higher bonuses to attract more clients. They may compensate this with a greater house rake or with more house odds on normal games. Again, have fun, but read everything carefully before committing to it.
