Beginners Guide

Our Beginner's Guide to gambling at online casinos is designed to help players make the most informed decisions while looking for an online casino to play at, as well as while gambling in a player's casino of choice.

The very first thing a player should be concerned with when selecting an online casino are its security and safety features.  The sure way of doing this is to check if the online casino is legally licensed (which should be divulged on the website), and to determine the brand of software the casino uses.  The most trusted online casino licenses are issued by the government of the Caribbean island, Antigua & Barbuda, or, the Kahnawakee Gaming Commission in Canada.  As for software, play at only those casinos using PlayTech, Microgaming, Cryptologic, Boss Media or Odds On software and you will be guaranteed the best in security features.

Other things to look for during the selection process are casino payout percentages and customer service.  All games should be tested for game fairness each month, and posted on the online casino site in the form of payout verification reports.  And always try emailing and telephoning customer service to see just how friendly and responsive they really are.

After joining an online casino, there are several conditions that you should be weary of (Remember, you will not have to worry about any of these if you play at an online casino maintained by any of the aforementioned software providers).  For all others, be on your guard for delayed payout of winnings, locked player accounts, delayed bonus deposits, casino terms and conditions which are unreasonably binding, unanswered emails and non-preview of games nor non-access to trial software.
