Introduction
When it comes to doing well at an online
casino, there are essentially three
different steps that will help you get off
to a good start with that online casino. The
closer you are to getting off to a good
start, the better your entire experience
will be. That is why these three steps
involve downloading the software package,
signing up for an account and claiming your
new player welcome bonus package.
Downloading the software package
Downloading the software package from an
online casino is very easy to do. If you
have ever gone through the download and
installation process for any file that
you’ve downloaded from the internet, you
shouldn’t have any problems going through
this process. All you have to do is download
the package from the main site of the casino,
install it and then you will have it readily
available on your computer. These days, many
online casinos will actually offer a flash
version of their casino that does not even
require a download to be used which is
something that could appeal to a potentially
wide range of people.
Signing up for an account
Signing up for an account is the second
thing that you need to do. This is also very
easy and is only slightly more involved than
signing up for an account with an e-mail or
a social networking website.

After the
initial signup, you will need to register a
payment method that will allow you to make
cash transfers to and from the website. You
can use any of the payment methods accepted
by the website and in some cases you might
even be able to use others if you e-mail
support and get special permission. These
instances are rare though, so expect that
you will end up using something on the
approved list 99 times out of 100.
Getting a welcome bonus
Just about every online casino these days
offers some kind of welcome bonus for new
players. For some casinos it will be free
bets at the slot machines. For others it
will be a single bonus. Others still will
offer a series of bonuses or maybe even a
period of time during which you get a much
better rate of redemption with loyalty
points earned by making wagers at the online
casino games.
No matter what the bonus offer is, you
should be aware of it before you start
playing. This will allow you to see not only
whether you can use the money before you
clear it, but also what it takes to clear
the bonus before you can actually withdraw
it. Most online casinos will require you
wagering some multiple of the combined
deposit and bonus amount before you can
withdraw the bonus. Many will also exclude
lower house edge games like blackjack from
the wagering statistics. The more you know
about that, the better off you will be.
Conclusion
Now that you know some online casino
basics, you should have no problems with
getting up and running with every online
casino the internet has to offer.
