A Beginners Guide to Gambling Online

Online casinos? They’re loads of fun! Whether you want to play blackjack, roulette, craps, slots, poker or even Yahtzee this introductory step-by-step information guides you on how to best get started playing your favourite casino games online.

1. The first step in getting started at your first online casino is to choose an online casino to play at such as 32Red*. There are countless options out there. Choosing a trusted and reputable online casino can be difficult if you don’t know what too look for. Here are a number of ways to ensure that when you play in the online casinos that your games will be safe and enjoyable:

Check for:

– Approval by the eCOGRA (e-Commerce Online Gambling Regulation and Assurance) – this is a regulatory body established in 2002 as a non-profit organisation by Microgaming, and 888.com. It has certified almost 100 casino sites;
– Safe Payment methods;
– Making sure there is live technical support;
– Insuring that you are dealing with an established company. Many online casinos such as Grosvenor have their roots in “offline” bricks and mortar casinos – that’s a pretty good indicator of their legitimacy.

If at any time you feel that you are wary, threatened or feel you are not being given all the facts, leave. The whole point in online casino games is to have fun and maybe even make some money – there is no point in playing in online casinos in which you do not feel safe or comfortable.  The last thing anybody needs to do with their leisure time and cash is to be swindled or even suspect that they are being given a raw deal.

Online casinos powered by the big four software providers Microgaming Casinos, Cryptologic Casinos, Chartwell Casinos, Playtech Casinos should be fine as casinos powered by these third party software provides are generally considered reputable.

2. After you’ve chosen an online casino to play you may need to download online casino software. You may also need to enter your e-mail address and fill out a few details about yourself before proceeding or otherwise the download will begin automatically.

3. Install the software on your computer. Follow the onscreen instructions to download the online casinos software correctly. This process should only take a few minutes to complete.

4. Run the software. You’ll normally have the option to play for real money or to practice and play for fun. If you choose to play for fun you can always upgrade your account to a real cash account and play for real money at a later time.

Some casinos such as those powered by Microgaming will require you to provide account information before playing in either fun or real mode. When you play for fun the form you have to fill out require far less information. When you play at Cryptologic or Playtech powered online casinos you don’t have to register to be able to play in fun mode. You can simply start playing. If you choose to play for fun you can start playing your favourite games by selecting them in the casino lobby and beginning to play. If however you want to play for real money please read on.

5. Real money players will be required to register a real money account. Having set up a real money account you’ll have several options to manage your casino affairs making deposits and withdrawals to and from your online casino account as you wish.
