Online casino wagering is dominated by slots machines. Therefore it is natural that most of the promotions offered by online casinos are oriented to slots games. This article discusses a few such promotions.

Most online casinos offer promotions by way of bonuses. Bonuses that can be wagered only on slot games have more attractive terms and conditions. You get a larger percentage of your deposit as a bonus and have less rigorous wagering requirements to meet. The reason for this is that online casinos want you to wager on slot machines in preference to other casino games. On an average slot machines offer lower returns to players compared to other games, so online casinos make more money from slot machines. Despite this slot machines are an overwhelming favorite of online casino players. Therefore more attractive bonuses for slot machines is a win win situation for both players and casinos.

No matter how attractively packaged, slots bonuses must be availed only after due consideration. In most cases you will not be allowed can withdraw the bonus. It can only be used for wagering and you can only withdraw the amount that you win from it. In that there will almost always be a limit to the winnings that you can withdraw. Even though the wagering requirements are less than that for other games, they are not always easy to meet. Slots bonuses are suitable for players who are in for the long grind.

The most attractive slots promotions for new players or casual players are the free spins offers. Some online casinos offer free spins on popular games as a part of the welcome bonus package. Others offer them on new games released at the online casino. Here also you may be asked to make a deposit and there would be a limit on the winnings that you can withdraw. But your investment would be considerably less. And since you would be wagering on the new slot games in any event, there is no harm in availing the free spins bonus.

Online casinos host wagering contests in different formats. The essence is that you are ranked on the leader board based on the amount that you wager in a given period. The top players in the leader board share a prize pool. If you participate in such contests you must not get carried away. Wager only to the extent that you have planned based on your bankroll. If you win that is a bonus, otherwise you have not lost anything.
