In general it seems as though the kinds of online casino bonuses and promotions are rehashed so often and that there is really very little originality in how the bonus schemed of free casino money and other promotions are setup. I think that to some extent that there has been some innovation in the last 2 years or so but I see the same things over and over again.

My question is really in regards to where people think that online casino bonuses and promotions that are offered by the casinos that we play at are going and what the future holds for players in terms of bonuses both for new players who are depositing at an online casino for the very first time and for existing players.

I do think that some of the Microgaming bonuses with free play and free credits have been one of the innovations in the bonus structures offered by online casinos over the past 2 years like I mentioned but other then that I haven't seen too much that's new or exciting that really draws me away from the casinos that I'm currently and already playing at.

Thanks Everyone,

I personally think that there's still a lot that's going to be done in way of bonuses and that we haven't really reached any limits in terms of innovations when it comes to giving away free money to players. There will always be a new way to go about doing it but I do see your point in the fact that it will always be a bonus where the player just get's free money. I think that as things evolve and Las Vegas does get involved you'll see more in way of comps that involve trips to casinos and physical rewards and offers.

This is kind of an interesting thread. I think that it needs to be assumed that the future of online casino promotions and bonuses that are offered will be dictated by the state of the online gambling industry. If the industry is fully regulated in the United States and over the globe then it's likely that well see all sorts of wild promotions and much larger and bigger promotions then we're currently seeing right now.

We'll just have to wait and see. I too do beleive that a lot of the future based around where things go with regards to bonuses, etc... depends on the whether las vegas does in fact get into licensing and running their own online casinos.

Many portals has its own online packages and freebies, online casino software providers still updating their system
for the demand of their clients and be more competitive to other online casinos.

Yeah agreed. If you go to various portals like this one casinoadvisor for example a lot of the deals you'll find on these sites are generally geared more towards the player and they've negotiated better deals then often times what the default bonus offering that's made by the online casino brand is.

Online casino providers has its own strategy before they launch their new freebies and bonuses, they are researching other online casino and its qualities for them to determine what's the best for their product and to become more competitive.
