If you’ve never gambled online, you might wonder why it’s become such a common pastime. What is it about gaming on your phone or desktop device that’s so entertaining? Isn’t it just easier to go to an actual casino and gamble there instead? It’s a fair question, which is why we decided to dig a little deeper and find out just what it is about gambling online that makes it such a popular choice.

1. Convenience. By far and away, this was the number one reason for online gambling’s popularity – its amazing convenience. Think about it. When you feel like having a flutter, you have to make a special trip to an actual casino, which involves driving, or sometimes even flying there. You have to go at certain hours, you have to dress a certain way, and when you get there, the game you want to play might be too full, or even out of order in some cases too.
Now think about a casino that’s open 24/7. That’s available wherever you are. That doesn’t have a dress code, that’s always open, and that’ll always let you play, no matter which game you choose. That’s online gambling – a casino wherever you are, whenever you want to play. Open up your desktop device and turn your lounge into a casino. Logon from your smartphone, and turn your commute into your winning streak. It’s the ultimate in convenience, and it’s one of the main reasons online gambling continues to grow in popularity every year.

2. Variety. Sure brick and mortar casinos have a wide variety of games on offer for players – usually everything from slots and progressives to table games, parlour games and video poker too. However, they’re limited in the number of games they can offer simply by how many they can fit within their walls. With online casinos existing in a virtual space, there’s no limit to the number of games they’re able to offer – which is why when you sign up you’ll find hundreds of casino games, any number of table game varieties, and a host of other traditional and brand-new games as well. All regularly updated, and all guaranteed to provide engaging, rewarding gambling entertainment.
Even better, as you’re always the VIP in your own personal online casino, there’s no need to wait for a slot or queue for a seat at the table. Just choose the game you’d like to play and you’ll be able to place your bets immediately. There’s no waiting and no fuss, just huge jackpots to be won!

3. Welcome offers. Ask any new online casino player what they enjoyed most about their initial experience, and they’ll most likely tell you about their welcome bonus – an offer they were given simply for signing up. Welcome bonuses are huge in the online casino community, and they’re designed that way for a reason. With so many online casinos competing for players’ attention, they need to do something or offer something that makes them stand out from the crowd – which is where welcome bonuses come in. The more attractive casinos can make their welcome offers, the more players they’ll incentivise to join them. So if you’re a player looking to sign up with a casino, you’ll be hugely spoilt for choice. Browse all the different offers you can find, choose the one that’s most valuable to you, and go from there. It’s a win for you, and for the casino as well!

4. Perks. While we’re on the subject of offers, let’s take a look at the other perks you’ll be able to enjoy when you sign up at an online casino. Brick and mortar casinos offer their loyal players certain privileges, and the same goes for online gambling sites as well. Pay attention, and you’ll see there’s more to casino bonuses than just a sign-up offer – there are plenty of other rewards to claim as well.
Invite a friend to join you at your casino and you’ll receive an affiliate bonus. Pay with certain deposit mechanisms and you’ll be given a payment bonus. Make deposits into your casino account and you’ll be rewarded with a reload bonus. Wager a certain amount and you’ll be given a cash back bonus. The list is almost endless!
Of course, all online casinos are different so there’s no guarantee you’ll be able to redeem these exact bonuses when signing up, but they are among the most common bonuses on offer at most reputable online casinos. The trick is to stay alert, keep an eye on your inbox for notifications, and take advantage of all the perks you can whenever the opportunity arises.

5. Cost. It’s always a fun experience gambling at a real-life casino, but the costs that add up can soon be prohibitive. We’ve already mentioned the transport involved – either driving, or flying, if you’re making a resort holiday out of it. Then there are the food and drinks you’ll buy, the accommodation you’ll need if you’re staying overnight, and any other entertainment you might participate in. Not to mention the actual cost of gambling itself – which can be high in some games, particularly when betting max on slots, or playing at high roller or VIP table games.
By contrast, the expenses involved in gambling online are relatively low. You won’t need to travel anywhere, you won’t need to pay for extra refreshments or accommodation, and you won’t need to adhere to any kind of dress code. All you’ll need to pay for to operate your online casino is electricity and an internet connection, which are more than likely part of your usual monthly costs anyway. And when it comes to gaming expenses, in fact gambling online can be more cost-efficient than gambling in real life, with lower minimums on table games and wider betting ranges on slots in order to accommodate all budgets. So you’ll be able to gamble whenever you want, wherever you are, for much less, and with your slippers on too. Talk about hitting the jackpot!

Happy Spinning 🙂
