Some crypto casinos really get creative when it comes to allowing you to withdraw bonuses. The terms are so restrictive it's almost impossible.

They may give you a bonus, let's say in the form of free spins... And then your free spins may end up netting you 20$ in winnings. Well,.you will find out that free spins are limited to up to 5$ per giveaway of free spins... And then you at least have 5$ right? Well, no! You still have to fulfill a wagger limits. And your 5$ had to be staggered at least to a gross turnover of $300! That's 60x... And not only that, you can only wagger on a selection of slot games and nothing else. If the wagering could be done on dice or something with low house edge, whatever. But they really really don't want you to win anything by forcing you to play slots with 5$.

Anyway. When I see something like this for free spins I'll be sure to never use any deposit bonus in such casino. Bonuses don't have to be huge when you're forced to lose everything. Just give a few cents and might as well keep it simple and give nothing. Right?
Bonuses and perks are really that getting inline with some terms and conditions on which this one is really just that standard, there are really just that those individuals who arent that knowledgeable enough or simply those noobs arent aware with these rollovers. Speaking about the differences about rollovers then these are not really that far to each other but we do know that the lower the better. This is why its really that important that you do really know on what site or platform you are really that dealing on with on which at the moment or time that you do find yourself doesnt really like their terms, then you can anytime switch into other platforms.

They do differ in numbers but not really that much on which it is really that normal that they will really be that having always the advantage towards gamblers. This is how business works and since you've been dealing up with bonuses then you do have to bare on the things that they are really that setting on. This is one of the main reasons on why bonuses isnt something that sparks out my interest because of these kind of terms on which it do really sucks big time. You wont really be able to get out easily if you wont really be that lucky enough.

I have concluded that all bonuses are just beautiful marketing to keep the player in the game as much as possible or to invite even more people by advertising bonus promotions. All the bonuses I heard about from my friends did not bring any profit but tickled my nerves well and worked exclusively in favor of the casino.
isn’t all bonuses really just beautiful attractions for you to be lured in to their platforms? the more enticing, more attractive the offers are the more gamblers will sign up and play but the casino’s desire for customers will not outweigh their need to make profit so first and foremost even with these bonuses they will make sure that they still earn and you don’t
That's marketing, now many big companies have similarities even with small companies if they want their business to grow then there must be creative actions to make many people curious and do it so that's where the benefits are especially for those who are addicted to gambling, this makes it difficult for them to get out or eliminate their curiosity that is already closely attached to them.

In addition to casinos, other companies will definitely do something like this even though it is likely that they have previously spent a number of yes and considered it all in terms of time, and themselves must also be willing to lose money. The bonuses that casinos give will not make them immediately poor and because I think they have thought about it carefully.

The terms of use of casino bonuses have been made so to make sure that some greedy people do not take advantage of them.
I find casinos terms and conditions like a small  English essays to test one's comprehension.

Online casinos try their best to be open when they give out their bonuses and there is a part where you are required to either accept or reject the bonus. I don't blame them when players complain about the bonus. It is just that the players are too carried away by the bonus that they confuse it for free money when indeed it is not free.

I don't aways support some casinos and their behaviours but players also have some portion of the blame because they forget that it is business and foundation that gives out free money like financial stimulus

Every casino or bonus has some sort of conditions or terms. So it is the responsibility of the player to understand the terms and conditions attached to it and see if they can comply with such requirements. Definitely, they will put an ad which is like a bait to the users. It is now up to the user if he will understand such conditions.

Online casinos have different ToS when it comes to free bonuses and spins, and for me I found so many of them to be too demanding for me, it is the reason why I don't give face to free bonuses, I would rather ignore them.

If you don't know already, free bonuses are still part of a marketing strategy from online casinos, if you are someone like me it is better to avoid but if you are up for the trouble surrounding the criteria then you should be fine.
You see those deposit X amount to get a certain amount or welcome bonus. I don't do that; I do my regular despite doing my regular bet and leave the casino without thinking about the stress of clearing a bonus wager requirement that might want to ruin my day because the majority of them usually lead to one result, which is coming out with nothing after the stress of trying to hit that target. You will always end up burning your balance before you reach there.

In my experience, it's the casinos that offer the lower matching bonuses but with small wagering requirements that are the fairest. I'd much prefer to only get $100 matched as a welcome bonus with a wagering requirement of 3x as you are likely to end up with a reasonable amount, but the reality is that "get $5000 matched on your first deposit" is just a catchy headline that they can put in adverts to draw people in - the sort of people that believe it get stung the first time when they realize it's totally unachievable to actually make money from it. However by that point they've probably got bored, forgot about the bonus or are chewing into their actual deposit amount and feeling a bit annoyed - but continue to play.

Yeah most bonuses are literally just promotional offers and the concept is pretty logical since there are numerous casinos all over the internet and what would possibly give you the urge to pick up a particular one? Well it's simply choice . Bonuses give you the opportunity to test that particular casino and in the end you may end up liking their services and continue using them other times you may not be pleased enough.
Sometimes flipping bonuses on casinos can. Be difficult but it doesn't directly mean you were programmed to lose rather most times it's more of being very lucky too.

I don't find a valid reason to bother with them. It's quite sensible that they wouldn't be handing out money just for depositing an X amount; that would be absurd; however, I do find some of their terms ridiculous. I'm not sure if they're still a thing, as this was more than 10 years ago, but I remember platforms like eToro, Forex, etc. that had a "demo" account with a fake, digital balance to play with stocks and so on. This is what I consider casino bonuses: trial balances to mess around with. You can hardly ever withdraw your winnings, either from the deposit bonus or from your winnings that derived from the free spins you were gifted, like in the OP's example. It's just money to mess around.

This is the main reason I don't bother; if I'm given something for free, even if it has those requirements, that's fine, but I'm not going to go after them.

I have received many different bonuses from casinos and the conditions have always been feasible. I remember bonus promo codes for spins, as well as for roulette, which I won in poker tournaments. And the conditions were always empty and complicated but quite feasible. These are the usual conditions for wagering the required amount, these are the conditions for verification and for replenishing your deposit. And it was always possible to either play the bonus money or win something on them and withdraw.

And it worked quite normally, so I will say - no, I have not seen very strange or impossible conditions of bonus programs.

Unfair casinos may use bonus as some kind of  "bait and switch" and advertise it as bargain opt at gambling while fair ones did not generally offer much for the free spins and don't take "a hard-sell approach" in their business. Thus your reasoning is quite understandable for me.  Any way one should always pay attention to the relevant "Terms & Conditions"-clause before making decision on whether it worth  to use the  free spins or not.

Sad to say but this is the norm of new casino nowadays. It’s better to play without this shitty bonuses since you don’t need to force yourself on playing to complete the wagering requirements that almost hard to complete.

There’s still some casino that offers no bullshit bonuses but expect the reward to be much lower compared to the casino that offers lucrative rewards but backup with tremendous requirements just to claim the rewards.

Worst requirements so far is the max win and the restrictions on bet amount to push user to become impatient on playing to commit gambling mistakes.

Most casinos do not restrict which type of games you play and that type of games like dice can help you reach that x60 wager requirements. I don't like though such type of casinos and in those casinos I may have left my accounts with bonuses to be unlocked but that are very difficult to achieve so for this reason my accounts in these casinos are abandoned. Personally I like casinos that do not give a damn even if you withdraw your bonus with 0x wager requirement, they are not good no and they are not thinking about you, they just know you will come back and lose your money.

Although every casino has their own rule and gambler's requirement to claim a bonus, for the casino I frequently use, they have some requirements that I don't usually get to fulfill to be able to withdraw the bonus and because of that, I don't see any need for the bonus. The only bonus that I get more frequently is from a bookie and they don't have so much conditions on that bonus, all you have to do is place a bet with the bonus and if you win, you can withdraw it no matter the amount.  @OP, there's no casino without conditions attached to their bonus.

It is crystal clear that these casino bonuses lead nowhere. Casinos use these features to keep us gambled, and of course, they benefit from it in return. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that because it is our choice to play, but let us not expect to actually gain anything from these offers.
My advice to beginners? Be cautious about the flashy promotions and bonuses casinos offer because most of them don’t do us any good. In my opinion, these so-called “bonus features” only make things harder for us in the long run.

Well you need to read the bonus term very carefully because like you have said before sometimes it just to lure a new user to play and most of them has Ridiculous bonus terms especially in the new casoino

The bonus is tempting but look again about the wagering requirements and how much to deposit, sometimes more bonus deposits will be more but don't be fooled even though the bonus is real it is difficult to win.
So I myself am not interested in bonuses, in the sense that playing gambling is not to pursue bonuses, especially with high betting requirements, you can lose the game.
People must concern about the wagering requirements because many of them having difficulty to understand the rules and just makes themselves in trouble. If they can think twice for the requirement that is not easy for them to fill, they don't have to force to take the promo or bonus. They can wait for the next promo that will comes because the casino will always gives the promo continouosly.

We must be wise to take the bonuses and let us in trouble. Many promotions that the casino will launch so we must choose the promo that we can participate and leave the other promo because that is too difficult for us.

Won't people who do not gamble much are likely to be attracted by free spins or any kinds of bonuses offered by the casino? They can justify gambling by saying that it is okay because they only gamble not so often and it is free anyway until you see them getting desperate for bonuses just to play.
Yes, that is right but before they take the bonus, they should consider to read the rules so they can understand and can decide to take or leave it. Free spins is something that attract people to try so they willing to participate because they know that free spins can gives them the winning. But they must realize that behind on that bonus, there will be requirements that they must fill.

Some people do not think too much to be honest. A free whatever is free. Period. All people can think of now is that they are getting something for free even if technically it is no longer free because they still need to pay.
So the free one will not be free when they still need to pay. But yes, something free will always makes them curious how good their lucky in that games. So that makes them want to participate with the promo but they must make sure that they are understand the rules. They should know what they need to choose from the promo so they will not get in trouble while they can enjoy the free bonus.

All the bonuses I heard about from my friends did not bring any profit but tickled my nerves well and worked exclusively in favor of the casino.

Bonuses have tickled nerves, the same as regular game would do, so its no difference then.  I see bonuses as a regular game, but with extra spicing. And I came to conclusion that people use bonuses wrong. Usually wagering requirement scares them. However, nobody force to nobody to complete that wagering requirement instantly or quickly. People should take their time, spend hours or maybe days, gambling carefully, without unnecessary risk, trying to find easy bets. But instead, they go max bet, max risk kind of thing, lose quickly, rushing to finish requirement as quick as possible, and claim that bonuses suck.

The similarity here is that every casino will most likely provide or offer its customers bonuses or promotions that they can claim but with some slightly different rules but with the general rules not much different, Maybe for people who gamble with a response to make a profit they will always be ready and respond to the bonuses or promotions offered quickly, but with you who ignore it is not strange because not everyone is happy with the bonuses or promotions offered by the casino.
Indeed, it is a fact that the bonuses that casinos provide are still their marketing strategy to develop their casinos in many ways, be it popularity, reputation or profit. This is natural for them to do because they also want their business to grow.

yeah that's right, bonuses are definitely something that casinos do even though they have to spend some money but behind that they definitely have a goal to keep them profitable and another goal is to keep players comfortable and stay in their casinos with them getting bonuses then it can make them think that the casino that gives the bonus has a good reputation.

The bonuses or promotions that casinos provide aim to make their players more comfortable gambling in their casinos, some people will be happy with this but some people might ignore it because it has slightly different requirements than usual.
