Topic: Top 5 Things to Consider When Choosing an Online Casino - page 2. (Read 447 times)

The majority already said it and I have to agree, a casino license shouldn't be one of the top things to look out for because a casino license doesn't mean gamblers are safe from most issues. We shouldn't prioritize these licenses when other unlicensed casinos can provide the same quality as most of these licensed casinos.

A license is needed to operate a business, and it is an important document that every business person has for their business. The license issuing process can be hijacked and bought with money in some cases, that is why you should never just trust that a business has operational license. Licenses can be obtained with enough money. I like to read extensive reviews about casinos before deciding if a choice is good for me. Reading reviews is a way of knowing the opinion of people who have gambled there before you based on their experience. Real reviews, not fake ones.

We do all have our own preferences when choosing a gambling site. Some would say a licensed one, others would go for platforms offering huge bonuses and rewards, some are not into ones with KYC, and/or the games being offered. But what would make me stay in a gambling platform is the service I am getting. Any gambling site could give the same offer to their players but not all platforms could give their players a good service quality perhaps with overall maintenance of the site or how fast transactions are being done both with deposit and withdrawal of funds. You could move from one another but for sire only a few would make you stay for awhile.

I didn't find reputation and trust in your thread among the things to be considered when choosing an online casino, maybe they are there if we click that little link but I didn't do that because I didn't feel like it, but anyway, I believe reputation and trust are two of the most essential things one should look for when joining a casino platform, if a platform doesn't have these two things, all other things are basically useless because the community simply doesn't like that platform and there must be some reason for that.

One more thing is the amount of time the platform has been around. So, when you are looking to join a casino, you should see how old it is and based on that, how much trust and reputation it has managed to gain over that period, and if that ratio is good, you are good to join it, otherwise, keep looking.

I would agree with most of the points in your read except for one: Licenses. While in the past they certainly held some value as licenses require rigorous registration and authorization processes before you could even get signed with a reputable gambling license provider like Curacao, nowadays they're cash grabs that do not hold up to what they stand for anymore cause most of them aren't even that hard to work with. You could literally just pay your way into a license and then voila, you're now a "reputable" casino. In my opinion this is bad as it could be abused by scam sites and fake casinos to make their unwitting users think that they are trustworthy, and then from there consider your money stolen.

There are better ways to choose the right casino for you, as it stands today however, looking for a licensed one may seem like a hit-or-miss idea really.

Look for a license

Most online casinos have licenses. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look and make sure. Licensed online casinos are by far more capable of handling arising issues than unlicensed online casinos.

Casinos with licenses, for example a license in Costa Rica, means the casino can operate under the governing laws of that nation. It also means the online casino cannot break the nation’s laws.

Consider security

Security is the most important aspect of any online casino. The most secure online casinos currently in existence are those that are bitcoin casino or other crypto casinos.

When we say security, we mean your information and your money. Non-crypto casinos require all your information, sometimes even the last four of your social security number, before you can open an account and start betting.

Crypto and bitcoin casinos require an email. That’s it. Also, every deposit and withdrawl is via a specific code. So the chances of your transactions being hijacked is close to zero.

Choose an online casino with game variety

Always look for game variety. By game variety, we mean a lot of table games and a lot of slot games.

Nowadays, bitcoin and crypto casinos offer as many games as traditional online casinos. The difference is that BTC casinos and crypto casinos are truly fair. Some online casinos say they use an RNG, but they don’t always.

I am glad to see Nitrogen Sports is still around and still a no KYC casino. I disagree that having a license makes a casino more capable. BetKing.io was a casino that was based in Costa Rica and their owner turned out to be a massive scammer. BitDice was originally based in Costa Rica and later Curacao and they ended up scamming also.

From what I understand Costa Rica doesn’t actually issue gaming licenses.

Yes, it's true, even the Stake site often holds a giveaway on their Twitter for users who have verified KYC level 2 or above, maybe there are many other benefits that I don't know about on other sites, but still it all comes back to trusted sites because by playing on sites that are not trusted, it will be difficult to feel safe about the KYC that we have provided, that's why it's important to do research first

Not everyone is happy with giving their KYC but sometimes when playing honestly and everything is clean the casino won't ask us to complete KYC and even withdrawals can be made. So far what I've caught is when there are winners who are suspected by the system they will be asked to complete their KYC. to prevent fraud and money laundering, but even so you still have to prepare KYC so that at one time when the rules change then we won't have a problem with that KYC.

Is there a Costa Rica Gaming License?
No, there is not. While people refer to a Costa Rica gaming license, it doesn’t exist and there are no laws or regulations for online gambling in Costa Rica. Rather, operators need to incorporate a Costa Rica gaming company and make it clear that the object of the company is to provide online gambling services outside of Costa Rica. Online gambling is illegal within the country so operators need to refrain from catering to Costa Ricans.
Just to be clear, the Costa Rica gambling license does not exist and the operations of Costa Rica-based online gambling sites are not licensed, regulated, or supervised in any way. Even those in possession of the “Data processing license“, are still not regulated.

They cannot pay all the people to write good reviews here they can do that on review sites but I doubt it on forums like Bitcointalk, many scammers are abusing their licenses they are still scamming their users, Licenses are just an attraction but the real foundation is their reputation.
Many posted that reputation is also important OP should include a good track record and reputation this is the first thing many are looking for in a gambling platform.
