Post How to check if a online casino can be trusted
My name is Chas60 from Norwich England,I enjoy playing at the online casinos,but I think it is very important that you know what you are dealing with,here are a few hints that should help.
It is pointless to win in an online casino game but is unable to cash out the money or worse, find out that site in which you have spent hours and money betting in is an illegitimate one. There are several things you can check out to make sure that the online casino site is a trusted one. Here is a checklist of well, the things that you need to check:



1. Where the office is

Knowing where the office of the online casino that you are playing in is a good move because should you have any complaints about the company but are not getting any response through the communication that you have sent online, then you can redirect all communication to their office. Having a physical address also is a better indication that the online casino is a legal one as those who have something to hide will not usually divulge their location, or even have one at all.



2. The registration and permit

This is the best way to determine if the online casino is a legitimate one. Several online casinos would not hesitate to provide you this information, and you can always cross check this with the related government agencies if you doubt the authenticity of the details given to you. This is best done before participating in any games so that you are saved from being scammed.



3. Reviews

Just perform a Google search and you will be greeted with abundance of information. Reviews from fellow gamers are the best way to tell if the online casino is a trusted one. This is also a good way to know what are the plus points and the grouses that the others face while placing bets on the site.



4. Background check

This can be done online too. Details to take note of are the length of the time that the online casino has been in operation, are the amounts of payouts verified by auditors who are hired externally and how long is taken to process payouts. There are several sites which have been known to delay payment with the intention that you will give up and then play all those winnings back into the site.



5. Listed in the leading stock exchange

You will know that your funds are safe and secure if the online casino company is listed in the stock exchange. Companies that are listed in the stock exchange have to abide by the regulations and legislation that are set by the federal government, so you’d know that the online casino is run legally by the law.

Agreed great post. I think that the key thing is to look at the software provider that the casino uses. The more I look at things the more I feel that Microgaming and Cryptologic are probably the two most pronounced and trusted gaming software development companies out there. So if you're not from the US and you can play at casinos powered by either of these software providers I would say that you're probably in pretty good hands.

Thanks for the information about finding out the trustworthiness of an online casino. I will Add one more point Check for eCogra certifications. This is one more point that points towards the legitimacy and trust for an online casino.

One way for sure is to check and see who is managing the online casino. I know at betcroc.com it is clear that a well know Las Vegas Casino Executive Rory Hascall does not mind putting his photo and info right on the website. Be leery when you can not figure out who is in charge or of they are legit.

This is probably the most frequently asked question by beginners. The great news is that the vast majority of online casinos is very safe and loads more fun than their land-based counterparts do. Keen on reading to see why Internet gambling is really exciting and with reasonable efforts safe too!

We’re not saying that there are no crappy online casinos lurking around out there because as with any industry, there are those who, given the chance, would take your money and run. Most online casinos are fair, honest and work hard to please their players. However, exceptions are everywhere.

New players naturally worry about not receiving their winnings – or it taking months to receive them. Fortunately, those fears are mostly unnecessary. All winnings will be automatically added to your casino cash account, so you are able to see them once the gameplay is completed and your name appears on the final scoreboard. Each online casino will display a list of approved withdrawal methods available to a player. You don’t have to withdraw your bank balance at the end of a playing session; rather any positive balance is remembered by the casino for the next time you log in.
