No Deposit Bonus
A no deposit bonus is a free bonus you receive if you register at a casino.
So it is in fact free money, given to you to explore the casino games, without risking to loose any money of your own.
Of course, these promotions also attracts a different kind of client. A client whose sole interest is in the bonus itself and his goal is to cash out the bonus as soon as possible and than simply leave. Because of this, mobile casinos have specific wagering requirements before allowing a withdrawal of the bonus. These wagering requirements are explained below.
Deposit Bonus
Nothing charms a future client more than free cash and mobile casino bonuses are just that. The most popular form of a bonus is the deposit bonus, which is also called sign up or welcome bonus. The size of the bonus differs between the different casinos, but it usually revolves between 50%-200% of the initial deposit. Some casinos spread the total bonus over more than 2 deposits though.
For regular players casinos often also offer loyalty bonuses throughout the year. These bonuses are similar to the initial welcome bonuses.
There is usually some kind of limit to the bonus, so you can’t just deposit €100,000 and hope to triple it up. Like no deposit bonuses, deposit bonuses have specific wagering requirements.
Wagering Requirements
The wagering requirement is a total amount you have the bet in order to be able to withdraw the bonus. The actual number varies from casino to casino, but a typical number could be between 10x and 20x the amount of the bonus. So if you deposit €500 and receive €500 as a cash bonus, your total betting must be above €5,000 to cash out the bonus.
This may seem like a big amount, but remember that if you are playing a game like blackjack using €5 bets, you will win many hands (as well as losing), so the requirements can usually be cleared in a short period of time.
Many casinos block some games from qualifying as a method to clear bonuses though. This usually includes the bets games that casinos offer, like a very liberal version of blackjack (for example a very small house edge single deck game) or some forms of video poker.
Conclusion
Bonuses are an attractive way to build up your bankroll if you are just starting out in the world of mobile gambling. Just remember to read the casino’s terms and conditions in order to be sure what the wagering requirements are, so you will have a better idea what you are up against.
