What is this about? It seems that they dont have any thread related to some campaign, more over for some positive reviews. Any link to this? May be you should give some link here and let anyone notice it for the new one

I would like to warn everybody who are making decision to join Oshi based on reviews on few major sites:
They may not be genuine because Oshi currently running campaign where players get free spins in exchange for positive review.

Actually this is their official announcement thread becase the other one has just been closed by Cyrus, because of duplicated announcement threads, and he also posted a link to this thread while closing it.

 Reference here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17706198

This is a dead thread, Oshi has their new thread somewhere else in this gambling section. Please bear in mind to check whether the thread is still active or not before bumping it. If the thread is not active for long time, then try to find other thread which is updated up to date and belong to the same site.

Great feedback, many people will play here when they see your feedback. But I had bad luck here, my opinion is that 40X rollover is too high, we need to set it to 35X. I am gambling addictor, so give us eaiser bonus terms.

Oshi casino has been incredible.  The speed of their payouts along with fantastic customer service is what makes them the best bitcoin casino out there.  The game selection is diverse and odds and jackpots are great.  I would highly recommend Oshi.io to all bitcoin depositers as I have had great sucess in receiving instant payouts.
I love the fact that customer service is available 24/7 and again speed of payouts is fastest I have seen at any bitcoin casino. 

Thanks for the kind words Mark! And yes, you're right, the wagering requirement at Oshi applies only on the bonus amount and not the amount that you deposit.

Happy to hear that withdrawal requests were processed right away!


Hello Mark! Pleased to meet you

Thanks for the feedback as well. I'll keep that in mind when moving forward and discuss it with Nick in the near future.

Casinos with 30x wagering requirements are rare except casinos with 30x(deposit+bonus) wagering requirement at Oshi it apply on bonus amount only.

Oshi put effort to make their casino outstanding and have no intention to stop, for now I have only compliments.

All withdrawal requests were processed instantly.

on my part though, i really dont object to this requirements since it is afterall a bonus. its just fair since the casino or in this case, oshi.io, is taking a risk/chance too..yes, other casinos usually have 30x playthrough requirements but,oshi, is awesome when it comes to loyalty bonuses. i know this for a fact. 

Nick Garner here, CEO of Oshi (in case you didn't already know    )
The 40 times wager requirement is an interesting one. I will ask the team to do some comparative analysis between us and the other Bitcoin casinos and see where we stand.

As you know, the whole idea behind wager requirements is to encourage people to play on the casino but mitigate risk on our part. So it's a pretty standard thing for any iGaming brand to levy a wager requirement.

Saying that, the question is what is an optimal wager requirement that means we don't get completely rinsed and therefore go out of business… And is attractive to potential and existing customers.

I will have a talk with the bonus team about this today. Back soon.

Really nice slot games there, but the requirement of 40x wager the amount of the bonus is a bit high, why such limitations, as a new casino you should distinguish yourself from others ,by offering that which others are offering not, meaning free 15 spins can be withdrawn directly if they are a win, even if they are a jackpot or a huge win.

In case you don't know, I am Nick Garner, CEO of Oshi. I'm going to ask Marko, our affiliate manager to talk about this. I'll also ask him to do much more detailed breakdown on this knowledge base article here
http://kb.oshi.io/kb/affiliate-administration-fee

We have put a lot of effort into making our affiliate commission structure as flexible and motivating as possible. We have different commission structures for different circumstances i.e. heavy hitters, people who just want to roll along and those who aren't really that sure about outcome. Each commission plan is designed to maximise the payouts we can offer affiliates.

And one other point, we are essentially in a start-up cycle and so are strategy is to make the website better than anyone else's, offer better affiliate commissions than anyone else can and offer better bonuses than anyone else does. By having this combination of factors, hopefully we will get more pickup from the community and in turn it'll help build our customer base.

I am going to work with Travin and a number of the team on the whole question of loyalty bonuses. As I mentioned before, it's pretty important stuff and collectively, we want to get this right. Back soon.

first off, hello travin.
going back, yep, i think it will definitely engage players to play more often. come to think of it, its a win-win situation since both parties will benefit with this loyalty bonus  arrangement..ofcourse,im just saying this an opinion. final word still rests on the managements decision.

Thanks for the intro Nick

Hi everyone, I'm Travin. I've been on-and-off with crypto over the past three years and have been involved with various crypto communities under different usernames. I'll be using this one for everything Oshi-related.

I'm also working on the signature campaign at the moment and will make a post about it once things are ready.

Yes. Absolutely. The thing with deliberated about is how to do this.

The problem with loyalty schemes is they so abstract. You play on the site, you earn points over time and you get stuff. There's very little relationship between doing things and here and now rewards.

Other operators sometimes run cashback schemes, where if a customer loses money they get a refund. But weirdly these cashbacks are a reinforcement of the pain of loss, which is not good.

Loyalty ideas
We've got a project in our pipeline where you can play in a weekly lottery draw and the more often you engage on the site, playing games or whatever, the more tickets you get and so the more likely you are to win.

I think the problem we have is that none of us really know what you would like most. I qualify 'you' as marknoval and any Bitcoin gambler.

Essentially as I see it, there are two viable approaches

• make gambling cheaper i.e. through bonuses or whatever, effectively improving the return to player
  
• have more opportunity to win more. Through lotteries, or free spins et cetera

They're both connected, but different as you can see.

Just going back to your idea Mark, " that player gets a nicer bonus each day until that particular player misses a day to which he has to start all over again.."

I like this a lot, but the one thing I wouldn't do is penalise anyone for missing a day of logging in, because real life intervenes and people have got other things to do.
So I would do it based on cumulative engagement over the previous week perhaps. I need to have a think about this and talk to my team and see what they feel could work.

But the principle is very good i.e. more engagement more reward.

What's your opinion Mark? And would anyone else like to contribute here?

Another post from me. Just so you know who I am, I'm the founder and CEO of Oshi and if you look around for 'nick garner' , you'll find lots about me online.

Oshi Mike
Firstly, with Mike… He just kind of drifted away. People do that. He moved to a different part of the world, re-prioritised a bunch of stuff in his life and I guess he just thought Oshi was not that important anymore to him. So that's fine. Were all cool and if he resurfaces; Great! because I like him a lot.

We should have a new community manager coming on board very soon. It's actually very hard to find somebody who is likeable, knows Bitcoin really well and is into what were doing with Oshi, but we may have found somebody. So I hope you'll be gentle with him when he makes his first appearance. 

And then there's me. I'm not a Bitcoin expert relatively speaking, but at least I can tell you about the casino and hopefully help out were necessary.

What's been going on
firstly, a little bit of history. We launched the casino back in November 2015 and we started out with a standard theme/site infrastructure from SoftSwiss. We then immediately started pulling it apart to make it more of what we believe a casino site should be.

Around December it was clear that we couldn't work with the existing web front-end and so we began the huge task of completely rebuilding the front-end of the website, along with a new middleware which could then talk to SoftSwiss. I'm being slightly technical, but in short we built everything from the ground up.

Why? Because just having another 'same as' casino is a quick way to burn through a ton of marketing cash and end up nowhere. So we decided to follow our convictions and rebuild the whole site around a simple idea:

You go to a casino to play casino games. Make it as easy as possible for you to find the games you want to play.

And with that principle, with rebuilt the whole website around making it easy to find games that you want to play. Essentially, we've taken an e-commerce approach to online casino. If you think about a real estate website, or an auto sales website, they are designed to get you from the homepage to the property or the car that you want to buy. Another good example would be Steam, who are brilliant at navigating you to those games you might want to buy.

And that's what were doing.

There's a huge amount of work still to do, but I think were getting much closer to something special, where you can actually sift through all of these hundreds of casino games to find the ones you actually want to play. Have test drive and see what you think...

Random fact:
Every single casino game goes to a categorisation process, where we have 97 attributes and 1441 sub attributes which we used to categorise a game, for instance:

Attribute: Theme Color Algo primary - i.e. where we use a tool that has an algorithm for describing the primary, secondary and tertiary colours on a casino game.

Theme Color Algo primary : Black
Theme Color Algo primary : Blue
Theme Color Algo primary : Brown
Theme Color Algo primary : Green
Theme Color Algo primary : Grey
Theme Color Algo primary : Orange
Theme Color Algo primary : Violet
Theme Color Algo primary : Yellow

Why is this useful? Because people like certain colours more than others and therefore they might like games which are brown, more than green games.

The big idea is to catalogue games just like someone catalogues features in a car when selling it on a website. And with this categorisation, we can then do some really interesting stuff which were only beginning to explore. For you, we just want a completely seamless frictionless experience. A bit like whatever your favourite e-commerce websites are.

There is a fairly complete list here  http://kb.oshi.io/kb/oshi-attributes-and-sub-attributes

 

Free deposits
honestly, I don't know the answer to that because I'm really not clear on what the potential for abuse could be. It's something that has come up a few times and so I'll have a talk with the bonus team about it. Also just to say, I don't really know that much about bonuses. But saying that there must be some kind of creative way of issuing free deposits to people who are genuinely interested in trying out Oshi. I will follow up on this.


Signature campaign
We have recently organised a signature campaign, which is being managed by one of the team. I'm glad you like the idea, because it just gives me more confidence in the campaign were going to be launching.  


Cash out minimums
On minimum amount restrictions, that's interesting. Coincidentally I had been looking at this:

This is our cash out/commission table:

BTC
Deposit commission percent: 0.0%
Deposit commission fixed: 0.0 BTC
Min cashout: 0.00011 BTC
Max auto cashout: 0.5 BTC
Max cashout: 5.0 BTC
Cashout commission percent: 0.0 %
Cashout commission fixed: 0.0 %

Question: Is this cash out amount okay? Min cashout: 0.00011 BTC, equivalent to 5 cents USD ?



House edge
So you know, the way house edge works is that the game provider actually sets it within the game and as an operator we have no control over the return to player/house edge. So the best we could do was to at least list them all out where we could get the data and then people could make your own minds up about which games you want to play.

https://oshi.io/about/fair

Also, we have got all the games tested by a company called iTech labs who certify that everything is exactly as advertised. And if you really care, all the SoftSwiss games have a testing tool embedded in the game itself where you can validate its return to player percentage.

Having looked at the numbers recently, the return to player percentage across the board seems to be around 96.5%

Random fact: craps has a really low house edge, but it's quite a complicated game to play:
    Pass/Come   1.41%
    Don't pass/don't come   1.36%
    Odds — 4 or 10   0.00%
    Odds — 5 or 9   0.00%
    Odds — 6 or 8   0.00%
    Field (2:1 on 12)   5.56%
    Field (3:1 on 12)   2.78%
    Any craps   11.11%
    Big 6,8   9.09%
    Hard 4,10   11.11%
    Hard 6,8   9.09%
    Place 6,8   1.52%
    Place 5,9   4.00%
    Place 4,10   6.67%
    Place (to lose) 4,10   3.03%
    2, 12, & all hard hops   13.89%
    3, 11, & all easy hops   11.11%
    Any seven   16.67%

Hi everyone,
firstly, thank you so much for your feedback and sorry about not getting back to this sooner, I thought I'd set up an automated alert, but i didn't....durrrrr.

In short, I'm going to have a talk with the bonus team and will work something out, because clearly it's important.
