Entering an online casino is very similar to setting foot in a land-based casino, but there are some differences that you should be aware of. This article will help you to understand how to play at the online casino and to best orient ourselves in the vast world of gaming dealers, each with its own unique characteristics and peculiarities. We will see what the types of online casinos are, what gaming licenses are, how to recognize them, how to behave in this regard and many other things. So, ready to embark on this journey? Let's go!
First of all, you need to know that not all online casinos are the same. In fact, there are different licenses in the world of online gaming, which are characterized by rigidity and regulations that are totally different from country to country. Italy, through the control of the ADM (Agenzia Excise, Dogane e Monopoli di Stato), is one of the strictest authorities in issuing such licenses, which is why casinos authorized by the ex-AAMS are among the safest in the world. In this first part, we will therefore see in detail all the advantages that you can get by playing in authorized online casinos and what the major differences are with the others.
First of all, and this is a feature that is more or less the same for all online casinos, there are welcome bonuses and a significant number of promotions that are constantly updated. This is a peculiarity that makes an online gaming portal very advantageous, and It differs from physical casinos which instead do not have them. Getting a welcome bonus when you sign up, perhaps with free spins to use to try out new games or new slots, is a significant advantage that will allow you to start off with an extra edge. In addition, in online casinos you can also take advantage of daily promotions to get additional prizes, such as percentages on deposits, increased odds, or prize pools from point-based competitions.
The other great advantage, which however is exclusive to authorized Italian online casinos, is the safety of the gaming environment. Recognizing a licensed casino is easy: on the home page, clearly visible, there must be the logos of the ADM, Responsible Gaming, exclusive gaming for adults and the license number linked to the license. To carry out further checks, you can also go to the official website of the agency for the licenses and make a comparison.
Once you have identified a safe and authorized online casino, the next step is to register. Most sites use the SPID (Public Digital Identity System) registration method, which will then allow you to access the portal in a secure and unique way. In fact, digital identity allows you to avoid any type of profile exchange and guarantees security to the dealer himself, who thus verifies the actual identity of the user. Alternatively, the method required to carry out these checks is to send a valid identity document accompanied by a selfie in which the same document is held in sight.
After the necessary checks, you are authorized to play, and therefore to make deposits into the game account. Also in this case, there are many deposit methods, from PayPal to Neteller, from the classic bank transfer to the deposit with cryptocurrencies. What allows you to make these banking movements with the right serenity is, once again, the ADM gaming license, which applies very strict controls in terms of privacy protection, management of sensitive data and connection security. In this regard, the SSL data encryption protocol allows you to navigate on gaming sites with a protected connection.
Last but not least, when we finally get to the games we can be sure that they have already been checked and inspected before being put online. Even the games produced by the various software houses must in fact pass the standards of legality and correctness necessary to become part of the roster of products offered. Especially with regards to the system for the random extraction of numbers and the percentage of return to the player compared to the general takings.
These are, in conclusion, all the things you need to know before entering the magical world of online gaming, where fun must reign supreme without ever endangering the user's tranquility and safety.
