To me, a session n n should last until the gamblers close the browser instead of being online and when you want to backspace or check out some feature outside your current mode the prompt for a new login comes up.

I feel unsafe with this and I have avoided the casino,  but that is just my thought but it be nice if I had your views on this.

Are you positive or negative on casinos asking for log-in frequently or do you feel unsafe in putting your login details every time?

I believe it’s case to case basis because my casino account is still login until now even I play yesterday. Probably it’s due to settings of your browser that automatically delete any login information on any website once you close it.

Your concern will be easily resolved if you will use 2FA on your casino account since the hacker can’t access your account even though they have username and password without your 2FA code. I believe the only time I will be uncomfortable login my account is when I’m using device that is not mine.

With the recent happening as related to phishing, and hacks of accounts a lot of awareness has to be created around the gambling community most especially,  in the area of security and safety of accounts.

This has led me to desire to know the community,  reaction on this subject matter of user login details being frequently asked by a casino,  do you feel safe to see a casino asking you for user name,  or phone number and password each time you open the site in your browser.

To me, a session n n should last until the gamblers close the browser instead of being online and when you want to backspace or check out some feature outside your current mode the prompt for a new login comes up.

Like log in credentials right? If they are the legit casino asking that since they always clear the log in sessions of their user for protection then I would provably do it. Since this is what we supposed to do to log in our account and use it. But we also need to be aware that phising attacks exist so proper checking of url is really important so that we will not caught up by those phising site. Some people fail to detect that the site they are using is fake one so verifying is really important with this so we can avoid any risk that might happen to us.

Actually I'm not negative on this since I always consider that if our device lost and those people who picked up our phone can freely take out our balance since we didn't log out our casino accounts on that device so I guess for that reason its fine that casino frequently ask our log in details once we want to use their casino.

It's frustrating at times because most of my accounts have 2FA, but i'm okay with that extra inconvenience if it can save me from losing my account in the future. It does bother me a bit when I get logged out or my previous session expires because it sometimes gives me the thought of logging in at a potential phishing site, so I always double or triple-check before typing my username and password. In casino apps, it's easier to log in and out since they can use your fingerprint to store your login info but only a few casinos have a mobile app.
You are very correct on that because for an account that have an 2fa security lay out it can become o pain in the ass since in most cases you 2fa app could possibly be on another device and may be we ant with such device but juts want to have a few games outside, this of course is one of those thing that I have in mind before creating this thread for us to share our idea's and suggestions that can help us to make better choice as far as account security is concerned.

Frequent log-in requests at casinos can be seen as a security measure but it can also be inconvenient for users. It's essential for users to assess the casino's reputation and security protocols. If you're uncomfortable, consider using two-factor authentication or choosing a casino with a more user-friendly login system. I think players should always prioritize their online safety. Personally, I prefer where I don't have to input my personal log in details too often.

If I can change the details of my name, telephone number, etc., after I can find the comfort of gambling at the casino, I will use a fake name first until I can find it. But if the casino had asked me to provide everything completely and it was really my personal identity, maybe I would postpone gambling at the casino. But if a casino asks me to log in every time I want to gamble, that happens at every site. And usually, the username and password are stored in the browser so you don't need to remember the password. For this reason, you have to be careful when browsing the internet and make sure everything is safe from phishing and other things.

Usually, the login details are saved... if you need to retype the username and password it should be a red flag! Phishing sites are a real danger, especially when it comes to casinos and some other services where we have some money. So people should be extra careful if we are not careful
it can hurt a lot, financially of course.

This doesn't happen with me on stake,  but there is this new casino that a friend my mine introduced to me and to some extent I have used the xmxasino for up to 15 hours now and within this time,  I can't tell how many time I have to input my password just to resume the session,  and this is unlikely and unfamiliar with me since I have gambled on stake for over a years now I'm and I haven't experienced such before.,  Anyway,  I am not saying that I have proven that anything is wrong with that.

But then me in my personal terms I don't feel secure having to forget my password at a regular intervals.
Maybe this is a security measure by the new casino. It could be very stressful to keep logging in after a few minutes but it is worth it for security reasons. It will be helpful if you fail to log out after you are through with gambling. But you can also check the settings of the casino to check if you can extend the login time.

It cost you nothing if you are asked to log into your account with your username and password,  but some people are so stupid that they use the same password on their special accounts like social media and bank accounts, once the hackers get a hold of your password they wi start trying it out on other platforms.

You are correct mate. It is wrong for you to use the same password on more than one platform, it could be very risky. However, asking for login details frequently within a few minutes can be frustrating and time-wasting.

Of the several casinos where I have played, as far as I remember, only two casino will still leave the user's account in the logged in position even though the browser has been closed for days, for some reason this is quite easy and the rest will still log in even though there is no activity, meaning it will only log out when I press log out button .
Not for security reasons, but if the casino account will log out automatically when there is no activity for a while, it is quite annoying and it is better if the gambler's account is logged out when the browser is closed or when there is no activity in one day, not a matter of hours, but the casino method is to log out the player's account automatically because there is no activity there must be a strong reason and players have to accept that and if they are disturbed they can use another casino which has many choices at the moment

Are you storing money or leaving money behind on a casino? I don't worry about my casino accounts because I won't leave behind a penny, I only deposit some amount for gamble on that same day and if I lose the money I will leave with 0 balance until another day, this should be the right thing to do.

I think you should care more about your device security, either you are using a computer or a smartphone make sure they don't get compromised, and also make sure that your password on a casino is different from what you using on other platforms, if one is compromised the others won't be affected.

When a platform asks for login details too often it is annoying for users, because users need to retype their login details which is more risky (does not apply to those who have auto-fill passwords enabled). I don't know the reason why casino platforms make their sessions so short, because for security and other issues they can use third party services such as Cloudflare or others. The platform should set their sessions long enough and have a robot verification system to prevent bots.

It's rare for me to have an experience like that. Usually when I ask for live chat they will ask for a little account data for verification such as asking for a username or email. I don't mind that because maybe they need to verify us, anyone can claim to be someone because anyone can contact the livechat service.

As long as you know there's no issues with their system that you know of I think that's normal. Always update your cached password so you'll not be mad that they'll ask it everytime, maybe you don't save those password for that site but I'll understand I don't usually save passwords on my browser for security purposes as well. For example, if your phone got lost or you have left it opened, that really causes some threat for me if they goes through my accounts that has money in it, I mean saved passwords it's really an easy login.

For me, it is normal for a platform to ask us to log in.  I feel safe in this kind of system.  We just need to make sure that the browser link is correct.  We can even save the website link in our notepad to make sure that we are on the right page.

Although it is annoying, I prefer it over a casino that keeps our account logged in even after we close the browser.

I hate casinos to be asking me for login details all the time that I want to gamble on the casino, but I am not feeling unsafe because that is not making the casino unsafe and my account on the casino too is not unsafe because of it, but it is frustrating. On most casinos that I am using, as long as I am using the browser that I use to enter the casino, no login is needed again.
I agree with you on this,  because of the frequent asking for login, anyways,  it may not cause any security risk for both the gambler and the casino but just as you have rightly said,  this is a frustrating thing and I don't know whether or not that there be security challenges.

The thing is that most reputable and popular casinos don't indulge in such things because at some point there is no need to ask gamblers to input at timing intervals.

I think it is normal for websites to prioritize an extra layer of security. It doesnt seem to be much of a problem. I think it is related to maintaining active focus on the site. If the active focus is lost, for example, you open a new window or new tab and the casino site ends up in the background, I do not see it as problem for the casino to request login information again. Imagine a scenario where the casino website remains active in the background, and you forget about it, and someone else accesses your computer after a long time? In such cases, requiring re-authentication actually seems like a good security practice.

Yeah I understand that,  it doesn't cost anything to input those log in details,  but you still should be aware that there are sometime where you may be venerable to spy who may have phased into the site and even though you may be dealing with the right site,  you input your login details exposes you details to possible attacks.

This situation may be rare but there is a casino I am currently playing on and they are frequently asking me for passwords and user details even though I just minimize,  or stay away for a short time.
When I read the OP at first I didn't get it but now, I see your point. My input on this is that if you have been gambling at this particular casino for a long and this just starts to happen, then you should be concerned. Reach out to their customer support and share your concerns with them. However, if this is how it has been happening since you registered with them, then you shouldn't be worried at all. This is just a security feature. If you have ever signed into a US government's website, you would notice that once you stay idle for more than 5 - 10 minutes you will be logged out. And you would need to log in again.

This is merely a security feature and I understand how stressful it may be.
This doesn't happen with me on stake,  but there is this new casino that a friend my mine introduced to me and to some extent I have used the xmxasino for up to 15 hours now and within this time,  I can't tell how many time I have to input my password just to resume the session,  and this is unlikely and unfamiliar with me since I have gambled on stake for over a years now I'm and I haven't experienced such before.,  Anyway,  I am not saying that I have proven that anything is wrong with that.

I think this is more safe that to keep your account logged in even if you are not using here.
Even here in the forum I always choose to logged out my account so whenever I’m not around I still have the peace of mind that no one can access my account same thing with gambling. Casinos should be more secured and you should always use their security feature, the purpose of 2FA as well is to be more secured every time you log in.

Barely encounter this kind of situation but on some occasions, I don't really mind it as long as you're logging in on the correct website then there shouldn't be any issue as they already have credentials on their system.

Also, this usually happens when someone has a VPN or constantly changing or hiding their IP address whereas casinos or even other platform will automatically log you out of your session. This happened to me once until I turn off my VPN and it keep my gambling session active until I log it out.
