Why Do We Love to Play in Online Casinos?

 

Regardless of whether you are a player or not, you are probably aware of how big online casinos are nowadays. Now, if you are not a gambler, you might not know why that is so. To learn more and see whether this is something that might interest you as well, keep on reading.

 

Playing from Home

One of the biggest reasons why individuals decide to join an online casino is the fact that it allows them to play casino games from the comfort of their own home. For one, there are no crowds of people that can distract players from the game and mess with their focus. Being at home means that everyone can create the perfect atmosphere they like to play in. Maybe they need silence, maybe they want some chill or loud music in the background – playing from home makes all that possible. Then, there are no lines at certain games or tables. If all the slot machines in a land-based casino are taken, players have to wait. This is not an issue with online casinos. Finally, there are simply no traditional casinos in certain cities and people would have to travel far just to gamble for a few hours. It’s oftentimes not doable on a regular basis.

Mobile Apps On the Go

However, playing at home is not all online casinos are good for. Most reputable operators have released apps that people can use to play games when on the go. Whether it’s on their smartphone or tablet, these apps allow individuals to play during their commute to work, when on a lunch break or while they are waiting for an appointment.

Wide Variety of Games

Another big reason why people love playing in online casinos is the range of games they provide. When compared to traditional casinos, the online model simply has more to offer. While you can find the classic table games and slot machines in land-based establishments, there are more varieties of every single game online. From poker, roulette and blackjack through thousands of different slot games all the way to keno, there is truly something for everyone.

Live Events

In addition to the variety of games, online casinos have also started offering live casino games. People that love the real-life casino experience but cannot travel to a land-based casino most often choose this approach as there is a real croupier as well as players that can interact with each other using a chat system. Games such as live roulette, live blackjack and live Texas hold ‘em are just some of the available options.

Free Bets and Bonuses

Online casinos often offer free bets to individuals to show them what they can expect from their website or app. These are usually a free spin in a slot game and are given in a current game. On the other hand, there are also all sorts of bonuses that players that sign up can expect. From welcome bonuses that are offered when someone joins to refer-a-friend bonuses that are pretty self-explanatory, these deals allow people to play a few extra games that they don’t need to spend their own money on.

Special Promotions

Besides the aforementioned bonuses, online casinos are also aware of the importance of marketing. This is why they often include special promotions in their marketing strategy. Some players use this opportunity to only then deposit money into their account. For example, Christmas, Easter, Halloween and Black Friday all come with certain offers, which players are ready to jump on and get a great deal.

Ease of Depositing and Withdrawing Money

Just like one can play from the comfort of their home, they can also put money into their account from the same spot. Most reputable casinos accept Visa and MasterCard debit and credit cards as well as various e-wallets and regular bank transfers. The same goes for the withdrawal of one’s winnings. This means that there is no risk of being robbed on the street while carrying huge amounts of money that were just won in a land-based casino.

High Security

Other than not having to walk around town with loads of cash, online casinos also implement the latest security technology to keep their users’ data safe. The encryption they use means that no personal information can be stolen. Knowing that the casino is verified and licensed gives the players confidence that they will not be scammed.

As you can see, there are many reasons why someone would choose to play at an online casino. The variety of games on offer and continually advancing technology, designed to immerse you into the gaming experience, are hard to dismiss positives. Add to that the ability to safely test your skills for free, gain bonuses and promo offers, the appeal of the online gaming experience becomes clear.

StatsDrone now supports over 2000 affiliate program integrations

StatsDrone now supports over 2000 affiliate program integrations

 

StatsDrone has achieved a significant milestone in their journey to being the best affiliate stats app both with accurate data and with the most affiliate program integrations.

The company recently achieved a milestone of over 2000 affiliate program integrations. Most of the integrations are for iGaming affiliate programs while others include affiliate networks, finance affiliate programs and crypto related programs.

Since launching the app over 4 years ago, the other milestone achieved is nearly 1200 affiliate programs marked as migrated or closed.

The multi-award winning app connects to affiliate programs through credentials using scraping or through using API keys. API data is supported by 61% of affiliate programs listed on StatsDrone currently as of August 2025.

COO and Co-Founder Darrell Helyar had this to say about the milestone: “Achieving this milestone reaffirms StatsDrone’s position as a leader in affiliate marketing, enabling affiliates to optimize performance and drive results. With an exceptional team committed to accuracy, innovation, and support, we continue to build trust and deliver outstanding results for everyone we support.”

The data that StatsDrone can get for customers is on the following levels: account, brand, campaign, dynamic variables and postbacks.

Dynamic variables, advanced data solutions for affiliates

Dynamic variables are proving to be one of the more popular tools offered at StatsDrone.

Dynamic variables is supported with the following affiliate program software: MyAffiliate, ReferOn, Mexos, CellXpert, Income Access, Affilka (SoftSwiss), RavenTrack, Alanbase, tap (Smartico), MAP, Post Affiliate Pro, Affise, Affelios, Entain / BetMGM, FlexOffers, NetRefer and PartnerMatrix.

Postbacks are currently available in StatsDrone for MyAffiliates, Affilka, Affise, Cellxpert and a few more.

StatsDrone helps affiliates identify when affiliate programs closed or migrate affiliate software which can render their old tracking links as invalid.

Finding affiliate programs

StatsDrone doesn’t just have 2000 affiliate program integrations but every integration is a review and part of our program database.

Affiliates can search for programs by affiliate software, if they have an API for accessing their data, postbacks, dynamic variables and exclusive deals too.

By far the most common integration technically falls under proprietary which means operators that choose to build their own affiliate program and not use a platform.

MyAffiliates has been the most popular platform as operators choose to launch their platform off of. Affilka, ReferOn and RavenTrack have been the fastest growing platforms.

On top of getting stats to affiliates, the company does it all with accuracy in mind. If an affiliate finds any data point not to be what it should be, they can report it to the StatsDrone team to have it fixed.

Likewise, if an affiliate wants a single program added, it is added to the list and most of the time the program is added within minutes.
