There are a few things that are important to keep in mind when you accept a casino bonus, no matter if it’s for $500 or $5.  First, find out if the bonus is sticky, which would mean that you can’t withdraw it.  This is a pretty standard thing among online casinos.  The good news is that you can win money off of your casino bonus, but just once you try to cashout it will be deducted from your winnings.  It’s not actually free cash, it’s just free money that you can win cash off of.

There are terms and conditions (like most things in life) that come along with accepting an online casino bonus.  It’s really important to know them as they vary from casino to casino.  The most critical thing to look for, or ask about, is game restrictions for wagering requirements.  Along with not being able to withdraw the bonus, most online casinos have wagering requirements that you have to reach before you are eligible to withdraw period, one you have accepted a bonus.

It’s important to know which games don’t count towards the casino bonus wagering requirements (game restrictions) because if that’s all you play, then you might not want to accept the bonus.  These games tend to include blackjack and roulette, but not always.

Also, if the casino bonus is advertised as a really high number – like $777 or $888 or $1000, make sure to read how it’s given out because 9.9 times out of 10 it’s broken up in to the first 3 or 4 deposits.  That way, you’ll know how much to deposit each time to make the most of your bonus (i.e., if the first deposit you only get 100% up to $100, it doesn’t makes sense to deposit more than $100 on your first shot.)
