What To Look For in An Online Casino If You Are A Newbie
So, you have decided to try out online gambling. Naturally, an online casino is a place where you would want to go. You may have given this careful thinking, or you may have decided to jump into it on a whim. Either way, one of the first things that you would need is the place to gamble online–your casino.
However, there are simply too many choices for you to pick from, as there are thousands, if not tens of thousands of online casinos out there–and there are even newer ones that get established every day. You may try to read online casino reviews, but that, too, may end up as a confusing thing for you without the proper direction or approach. So how would you be able to easily find the online casino that is the right fit for you? Here are some of the most helpful tips that can narrow down your choices for you.
The basics
Of course, no one would want to go to an online casino that is not recognized as legal under the law. So, naturally, you’d want to make sure that the one that you are looking at is registered under the government. Additionally, one more thing you need to check would be applicable certifications that would prove that the games and software used by the site were inspected and were certified to be secure from rigging and are fair to players.
One more thing that you need to check is the availability of the payment and withdrawal methods that the site or app is offering. Do they accept the method that you are intending to use? Most of the time, an online casino would accept payments through credit and debit card, a bank transfer, and even the most popular e-money wallets.
These are only the basics. There are more other things that you would need to put into consideration, too.
Fair reviews
You may have had the idea to read reviews of casinos online. That is a good thing, but you should understand that you should not just read any reviews.
Did you know that not all reviews are real and trustworthy? Some positive reviews are called “affiliate reviews,” or reviews that have been paid for by the site developer to have a positive word about them published. On the other hand, not all negative reviews speak the truth about the site, too. Some can be maliciously posted, either by trolls or by people who are only disgruntled in one way or the other.
So, learn to distinguish a fair review from one that is not. Only fair reviews can give you a real and balanced perspective.
Great customer support
Since online casinos run on computer software, you know what that means–anything could go wrong anytime. When something out of the ordinary happens, you would want to have someone to assist you to fix the problem.
In situations like this, what would you prefer? Asking help via email only to get a response in three to five business days? Or to open a live chat and get support in real-time? This is how important good customer support is.
Live casino
Playing online casino games is fun–you get to play games at your own pace, at your own time. However, some people still long for the real human element of playing in a land-based casino–having a real person deal the games for you and seeing live, breathing humans interact with you. This is what live casinos can bring you, and this is one more thing that you should look for when finding the right online casino for you.

N1 Faces: Daria Maichuk — “Communication as the Key to Strong, Effective Partnerships in Affiliate Marketing”
In iGaming, many things start with a simple “hi” in chat. Messages turn into long conversations, calls follow one after another, yet the goal remains the same — to make traffic profitable. Behind every dialogue is a person with their own background, approach, and communication style — and that’s exactly what defines the success of any partnership.
Partners need to see more than just a messenger account — they need to see a real person they can trust with their traffic and their goals.
N1 Faces is a series of short and lively interviews where N1 Partners introduces the managers behind the affiliate program: their values, their workflows, and their unique management styles.
Today’s spotlight is on Daria Maichuk, Affiliate Manager at N1 Partners, who shares her journey into the industry, her approach to building reliable long-term partnerships, and how she maintains internal balance while working at a fast pace.
Daria Maichuk
Affiliate Manager, N1 Partners
Daria is the kind of manager whose calm mindset, attentiveness, and quick reaction become obvious within the first minutes of communication. She maintains a fast pace, yet always leaves room for a genuine conversation — and that’s what makes working with her both easy and productive.
How did you get into the affiliate industry, and when did you realize it was the right fit for you?
I entered the industry in 2019, starting as an account manager at an advertising network. We worked with push, pops, native — and I had the chance to dive into each vertical.
After four years, I felt the need to focus on one direction and look at the market from another angle — to understand how different traffic sources operate. The role of an affiliate manager offered exactly that: an opportunity to explore the product in depth, build long-term relationships with partners, see campaign launches from the inside, and directly influence performance.
Why N1 Partners? What aligned in terms of values and approach?
I had known about the company for a long time — since 2020. We ran push-traffic tests together, and met often at conferences. I always noticed the team’s energy, openness, and genuine passion for their work. N1 Partners felt like a place where people truly love what they do.
When the opportunity to join the team appeared, I immediately felt that the rhythm and atmosphere matched me perfectly.
What advice would you give yourself in your first month on the job?
Don’t be afraid of the information flow — trust yourself more. At first everything may seem overwhelming, but over time each puzzle piece falls into place, especially once real practice begins.
How do you usually start communication with a new partner? What’s important to understand in the first five minutes?
It’s ideal when both sides have time for a quick call — to meet, exchange expertise, and discuss all details and expectations for upcoming launches. We share the results we aim to see by certain deadlines, while the partner outlines their vision — which GEOs they want to run now and what conversion they expect.
For me, it’s important to understand how open the partner is, how willing they are to share details about their launch plans, and which approaches they intend to use. Our goal is always the same: find terms that are mutually beneficial.
How do you build trust with a partner to ensure productive cooperation?
Personal communication is key, and conferences help immensely. Face-to-face interaction allows you not only to discuss business but also to learn more about the person. Small details can significantly improve future communication and make it more trusting.
Sometimes one meeting is enough for the dialogue to become smoother, faster, and more efficient.
This personal contact becomes a bridge that simplifies any further work.
Are there cases when you need to give tough feedback? How do you do it while preserving trust and a good working relationship?
Yes, it happens — and in such situations I always rely on statistics and concrete data. Numbers speak for themselves, which keeps the conversation transparent, grounded, and efficient. We look at facts together and make decisions based on them.
Constructive feedback with clear recommendations often becomes the most valuable tool for mutual growth.
What personal communication rules help you maintain speed without sacrificing quality?
I follow several principles: be polite, listen carefully, ask the right questions, avoid interrupting, and clarify anything that may cause misunderstanding.
These simple rules help keep both the pace and the quality of communication high.
What energizes you outside of work, and how does it help in working with partners?
Anything connected to movement and social interaction: sports (three workouts a week), yoga, walking my dog, warm moments with family and friends.
Time spent outside work helps me recharge, stay balanced, and maintain my energy levels. Thanks to this, I remain attentive, calm, and ready for constructive dialogue with partners.
If not iGaming, then… who would you be?
As a child, I dreamed of becoming a flight attendant — I loved the atmosphere of travel and the feeling of being close to the sky.
Speaking of my current interests, I would probably choose marketing — maybe performance or targeted advertising. I’ve always been drawn to its dynamics and opportunities for creativity.
Name the Top-3 tools you can’t imagine an affiliate manager working without.
CRM systems and convenient communication channels
They structure daily workflow, simplify interaction, and help keep important details organized.
Monitoring dashboards and analytics tools
They make it possible to evaluate traffic quality, build reports, and make data-driven decisions.
Work devices & messengers
The backbone of daily communication — calls, quick discussions, approvals, and keeping constant contact with partners.
Phone, laptop, Telegram, and MS Teams are my essentials.
