As part of the ongoing fight for new customers and to replace customers that have left the casino, the casinos have needed to find ways to induce players to tryout their casino. The offers to make this happen are varied and show a great deal of imagination. The no deposit casino bonus is one that shows the extent that casinos will go to, to get players to try the casino without risking any of the players hard earned cash.

The offers are over a range of money and it depends on the casino as to how big the bonus will be without a deposit. The only requirement is the player needs to open an account to put the bonus money in. After this is done the player is usually able to play the money at any game available on the site. One thing a player is wise to check out is the rules on withdrawal of this bonus money or any other form of bonus. There are other bonuses that do not require any deposit on the part of the player. Referral bonuses and loyalty rewards can deliver no deposit bonuses, as neither requires a deposit to be earned. Referral bonuses are just that, a bonus for referring a friend to the online casino. If the friend then opens a money account, the referring player gets a stated cash bonus for getting the friend to open the account. At some casinos the existing client will get a small percentage of any further deposits the friend makes to their account. This bonus is very easy to get if you know a group of active gamblers who value your opinion.

The loyalty bonus will only come from playing actively on the site. The customer earns the cash that can be obtained by converting loyalty points due to active play. Cash earned this way usually has few if any restrictions on it as far as keeping it in the account or sending it home. Players have many options with their loyalty points. Converting to cash is only one of them.

Another way that players earned bonus money is by having another birthday. Casinos like to have a personal touch with their clients and sending a birthday gift of cash is one of the more appreciated ways of staying in touch. This birthday cash has no strings and can be used anyway the player wishes to use it.

There are other bonuses that are contingent on deposits and their size and when they are made. After the initial no deposit account is opened and funded by the casino, the next step is what happens to the deposits of customers and how will they be matched. Each casino will come up with their own program and the amount of money that will be given on each deposit. This program is a natural follow up to a no deposit plan to get new players.

The no deposit bonuses are great sounding to all players looking to open an account to gamble. The problem with many new players and casinos that use this advertising plan is the casinos in some cases really never expect to lose any of the money they give out. Their withdrawal rules are so tight that it virtually locks up the money no matter how much the player plays or stays active. This is unfair and players have a simple option of not participating with casinos that operate that way. If the plan is fair and the player has a reasonable chance to collect their winnings if there are any, then that casino at least is entitled to a fair try out period. Some casinos realize that the playing public is pretty smart or they are learning what to look for.
