7 Rules For Online Gambling

 

Read these 7 tips before you begin to gamble online.

1. The Law

There is a reason why this is number one on this list. It’s because the laws varies as to whether it is legal for you to gamble online. Know your states local laws before you begin to gamble on the Internet. If you are unsure, contact your local authorities, or as a reference, visit this site: http://www.gambling-law-us.com/State-Law-Summary/

If you are outside of the United States, the same advice still applies. Do a search on the Internet or contact local authorities to determine whether it is legal or not for you to gamble over the Internet.

2. Casino Research

Keeping track of trustworthy casinos is the primary reason this website exists. I would still suggest you do your own investigation before making the first deposit. This includes your opinion of the website. Is it a shallow website without much content? Do they have customer service numbers and email addresses posted in a visible manor? Are their policies, terms, and condition statements vague or short? These are all ways to determine just how serious the company is about their operation.

Additionally, search for message boards and forums for any information regarding the casino in question. There are few websites like Casinofy that “approve” or suggest casinos. That does not mean it’s a reliable casino. Seek out more than one positive review for a casino.

3. First Time Playing

Almost all casinos and online poker rooms allow you to play for free. Once an account is made, there will be options to play for free, or play for money. Be smart! Play for free for a while. You may find out you don’t like a certain game, or the way the casino operates. This is your chance to move on before you make that first deposit.
If the casino does not offer the chance to make a free account, that would be a cause for concern. Move on to another casino if this is the case.

4. Payouts

Most importantly, when we sign up for a casino, most are thinking about winning! That’s the fun of gambling. Being a safe gambler means understanding that winning at a casino is not a given; however it’s a huge rush of excitement and adrenaline when it happens!
In the case that you win, you will want paid! Read the casinos payout conditions. Be sure that there are no stated stipulations that could prevent you from accessing your money outside of the online casino.

5. Customer Support

As stated earlier, customer support is an important way to judge the quality of the online casino. Research to make sure there are multiple ways to get in touch with casino staff. 24-hour phone numbers live online chat and email addresses are common industry standard customer services. It’s actually a great idea to call the customer service numbers and talk to the individual. Ask them a question or let them tell you about their sign-up bonuses.

6. Know The Game

This is no different with land-based casinos. Know your specific game rules before you begin to play. Different casinos will have different in-house rules that always apply first before what you are used to, or what you experienced elsewhere. Additionally, online casinos choose different software vendors. All software vendors and their licensees are not created equal. Read before you bet!

7. Adopt A Playing Style

With a land-based casino, you are often forced to play at a certain speed. You also don’t always have a nice dealer that will explain the difference in games or even how to play to you. I’ve made the same “first timer” mistakes myself. That ends up in loosing money fast!

After you research the in-house rules, be sure to use your own personal playing style with the games. Take your time! Think about your bets. Even more so, do some research on game strategy. There is plenty of free information available on the Internet that gives you an edge at playing the games. I will warn you that some “strategy” scams do exist. Use only free information, and carefully consider the tips or techniques before you employ them. After all this, HAVE FUN!

Fiat & Crypto: King Billy players get the best of both worlds

Fiat & Crypto: King Billy players get the best of both worlds

 

See how the casino players can deposit in crypto and play in fiat. 

Since the dawn of e-gaming robust payment systems have been crucial for the success of any online casino, as they are a key factor in creating a positive and satisfying gaming experience. Moreover, the availability of different payment options allows players to choose the method that works best for them, whether it be classical fiat money or cryptocurrency.

But is it possible for an operator to give its players the best of both worlds, fiat and crypto at once? Yes, it is, with the King Billy feature “deposit in crypto, play in fiat”. The concept is simple. A casino player deposits in crypto (choosing among 4 cryptocurrencies King Billy supports). Then, the system automatically shows them their balance in the currency of their choice (among the 14 currencies King Billy supports, used by more than 3 billion people worldwide). When the players withdraw, their transaction takes place back in crypto. 

What are the advantages of this system? Ruslan Legenzov, King Billy Casino Head of Affiliates (or “Lord of Affiliates” as the internal etiquette demands) has the answers: “Good things come in threes, and there are certainly 3 very good things about our “deposit in crypto, play in fiat” feature.

First of all, depositing in crypto means less hassle and paperwork for the player and elimination of the dreaded “transaction not coming through” issue. This has been a problem and actually a torment for many of our players in remote areas of the world. As a global casino, we are happy to act in ways that give peace of mind to our players.

Secondly, this system offers a greater player experience to the King Billy Citizens and Nobles, as they can now take advantage of our numerous promotions and offers in fiat. For example, players who deposit in crypto can now participate in our extremely popular fiat-only “Slot of the Month” offer, that’s been a staple of our casino since our launch. 

Finally, with “deposit in crypto, play in fiat” our players, especially the not so cryptocurrency-savvy have a much clearer understanding of their wins or losses. I am sure that a player, let’s say from Vietnam, prefers to see, in real time, how much his slot win is worth in the Vietnamese Dong than running in parallel a crypto converter tool to do the math!”

Well said and well done your Majesty. 

For those interested in the “deposit in crypto, play in fiat” feature, King Billy Casino accepts the following currencies: Euro (€), US Dollar ($), Canadian Dollar (C$), Australian Dollar (A$), New Zealand Dollar (NZ$), Norwegian Krone (kr), Indian Rupee (₹), South African Rand (R), Vietnamese dong (₫), Indonesian rupiah (Rp), Malaysian ringgit (RM), Thai baht (฿) and the Philippine peso (₱). King Billy also accepts the following cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC) and Tether (USDT).

King Billy Casino is a new-generation online casino, launched on St. Patrick’s Day in 2017. It is available in 4 languages (English, German, French and Finnish) and it has an impressive record in awards with 25 wins, shortlists and other distinctions, and an amazing variety of features and games. King Billy has prioritized the creation of a superb user experience, focusing on the myth of King Billy and his Kingdom and treats all players with the specialness they deserve.

The number of unique show visitors attending iGB Affiliate London ’23 totaled 5,763 a 40% uplift on the April 2022 edition (4,116) and 19% ahead of 2020 (4,844) which was the last edition of iGB Affiliate London to take place prior to Covid. The number of visitor days which measures return visits, stands at 7,176.

The brand’s impressive international credentials were once again in evidence with visitors travelling to London from 101 nations – the first time that iGB Affiliate London has broken through the symbolic ‘three figures’ for international representation.

With every show metric in positive territory Portfolio Director Naomi Barton expressed her thanks to the entire iGB Affiliate community for its support and for helping to make the 2023 edition so successful. She stated: “We’ve worked in partnership with colleagues active in the iGaming Affiliate sector to deliver an event that provides what the industry requires across all fronts.

“Our focus was to deliver on our pledge to provide delegates with access to new business strategies, new thinking, new trends, new technologies and new content, in the process keeping the iGB Affiliate London proposition fresh and compelling.”

“This edition of iGB Affiliate London was physically the largest on record and the continued demand for space from both new and existing exhibitors underlines the fact that iGB Affiliate London is regarded by our stakeholders -who are based throughout the world –  as being their flagship event.”

“Significantly 24% of attendees were making their first appearance at iGB Affiliate London with 1 in 10 affiliate visitors new to gambling. The ability to bring new people into the igaming affiliate space represents an important attribute of the brand.”

Away from the exhibition show floor a total of 450 sector professionals attended the prestigious iGB Affiliate Awards which recognized the ‘best of the best’ across 19 categories. Better Collective Co-founders, Jesper Søaard (CEO) and Christian Kirk Rasmussen (COO) were awarded with the blue riband ‘Affiliate Idol – Lifetime Achievement Award’ for their successful contributions to the industry.

On receiving the Award Jesper Søgaard, Co-founder and CEO said: “I speak for Christian too, when I say that it is an incredibly humbling feeling to not only have been considered but chosen to receive the Affiliate Idol Award. Christian and I may have laid the foundation for something great but without our dedicated colleagues, Better Collective would not be where it is today. I am very honoured but also trust that with our vision to become the Leading Digital Sports Media Group, ‘the best has yet to come’.”

The Affiliate Awards sponsors comprised V.Partners (Stage Sponsor), Safe Affiliates Programs (Photobooth), YGAM (Safer Gambling) and Trueplay (NFT).
