Main features of a reliable and fair online casino
Yuriy SheremetThe online casinos offer the opportunity to play and make money on the internet. But the network has a lot of fraudulent sites besides real ones. As a result, users not only lose money, but also secret data. What characterizes a fair casino?
Brand awareness
Thousands of online casinos appear every day, but the reliability of each site is not guaranteed. In order not to be mistaken when choosing, one should first take a close look at the casinos that sound familiar.
The best online casinos & games are represented on the internet by the following brands:
- volcano
- PlayFortuna
- 777
- Fresh Casino
Every gambler has heard of and encountered these established brands. When an online casino tops the rankings of independent resources, it is controlled by large corporations and visited by millions of users. It is safer to gamble on than to risk on a private and unknown project created a week ago.
Official sites only
Many scammers use the names listed above. Vulkan Casino cannot be called fair as it has a lot of websites. There are hundreds of spellings, different domains, and corporate recipients.
To find a safe casino one has to select the official site. But how is it to be found? The official websites often have original domains in the correct spelling and without additional characters. Their professionally designed websites are of high quality.
Visiting the owner's website is another way to find the original page. Mostly these are the foreign companies that own the casino. Curacao eGaming is the most striking example. The originality of the sites indicated on the owners' resources is guaranteed by them.
Verified mirrors
It must be corrected: The official websites may temporarily not appear on the first search pages and may have unattractive domains. These are not main pages, but mirror pages.
This is the name of additional websites that are created by developers when the primary ones are blocked. Online casinos are illegal in many countries, which is why they are blocked very often.
With the mirror page address copied in advance, you can access the official website and continue playing even if the previously used domain is blocked.
Certified slot machines
The whole concept of online casinos is mostly focused on slot machines. There are thousands of them in modern casinos. The famous devices Book of Ra, Major Millions and especially Crazy Monkey can be found in every club.
There are plenty of other slots too. However, you must determine their certification before entering any money into the system and placing bets.
Each slot machine has a certain win rate and works according to the system set by the developers. However, the owners of dummy clubs can change the program in slot machines by adjusting the coefficient and changing the algorithms.
The originality of game scripts is checked by eCOGRA, IGC and the like. They evaluate the compliance of software in online casinos so that nothing differs from the developer settings. When the honesty of the slot machines is officially confirmed, you can play.
SSL certificate
In addition to the technical characteristics of slot machines, it is necessary to evaluate the security of the site. The online casino must have a secure SSL certificate. In order to top up the account and withdraw funds regularly, users must provide personal information including payment details. This can be dangerous, so convince yourself that the project is serious.
Confirmation from the independent company through an SSL certificate is a clear guarantee that the website is secure and that the data is protected from being viewed by third parties.
If a certificate is missing, the domain name is marked red instead of green and the browser warns the user that the page is not protected. You shouldn't enter any information and rather leave the page.
Kine "money distribution"
Casino fairness can also be judged on the basis of the playing conditions. Honest gambling halls promise gamblers no mountains of gold. You honestly state the percentage of profit you can win, and it's not millions.
Many casinos organize promotions, give extra bonuses for various actions, and play out enviable jackpots. But they are extremely rare and the classic slot game is not very profitable.
When an online casino promises a lot of money, it is a cause for caution. Maybe the site isn't entirely fair to customers.
