Before signing up to an online casino to play games for real money, there are several things you should be aware of. Here are ten useful tips for signing up to a new online casino for the very first time.

Top 10 tips for signing up to an online casino

There are thousands of online casinos to choose from today, some of which require you to complete the KYC (Know Your Customer) verification process, and others which don't, the latter of which is known as a no KYC casino.

At whichever type of online casino you decide to sign up to, there are several things you must remember. The top things to remember are the following:
  • Ownership
  • Licensing
  • Games & software
  • Bonuses and promotions
  • Policies, terms and conditions
  • Security
  • Mobile/tablet friendliness
  • Payment methods
  • Currencies
  • Player support
  • Wagering requirements

Let's take a closer look at what each of these things means.

Ownership

The top tip is to find out who owns the casino. Don't ever sign up to an online casino that's controlled by a dodgy operator. Only sign up to one that's controlled by a trusted operator with a good reputation.

Licensing

Only sign up to play at licensed online casinos, preferably ones that are licensed by a mid to top-tier licensing authority. Today's best casino sites tend to be licensed in the UK, Malta, Gibraltar, Kahnawake, Alderney, and Curacao.

You can also find plenty of trusted sites that are licensed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Delaware, West Virginia, and Connecticut.

Games & Software

Always check that the casino uses games from trusted online casino game development studios/software providers. You know their games can be trusted and won't be cheating you in any way. Avoid playing games from software providers that nobody has ever heard of.

Bonuses & promotions

Always remember that online casino bonuses or promotional offers that sound far too good to be true often are, so avoid signing up to an online casino just because it has an amazing bonus, which may not be legit.

Policies, terms and conditions

Another important tip is to take a few minutes to read through the casino's policies, terms & conditions before registering an account. It will only take a few minutes to do, and it can be very revealing about the integrity of an online casino operator.

Security

Remember to check that the casino is secure by clicking on the padlock icon in the address bar. Check that it's protected by SSL encryption technology and that it's a safe site.

Mobile-friendliness

Remember to check that the casino is mobile-friendly. The best online casinos will be optimised for use on most modern Android and iOS (and even Windows) operating smartphones and tablets.

Payment methods

Always head to the cashier before signing up and check they accept secure online payment options and a wide range of credit & debit cards, e-wallets (aka digital wallets), prepaid cards, and bank transfers. Many online casinos also now accept cryptocurrency.

Currencies

Also, check that the casino accepts multiple currencies (including your preferred currency).

Player support

Today's best online casinos provide round-the-clock (24/7, 365 days a year) support that's usually toll-free and available via telephone, live chat, and email. If they provide little or no support, don’t sign up.

Wagering requirements

Before accepting an online casino bonus, remember to find out what the wagering requirements are. Anywhere from 1x to 25x is regarded as good. 30x to 60x is around average, and 70x to 200x is relatively bad.
