With the rise of the smartphone market, it seems that one of the big winners in this space is the Gambling and Betting industries.
The ability to place a bet or have a quick spin or roulette, particularly while waiting at the bus stop, or in another few spare moments is one of the key growth areas for these companies. But with so many different apps around how do you know which one is right for you and most importantly, your wallet. FreeTips.com investigates the different apps available and gives you the inside scoop on them, so you know what you are getting for your money and can make sure you have the best app for your buck.
Apps are one of the key inventions to come out in the early part of the 21st Century. Allowing the smartphone in our pocket to be your access to an entire online world of entertainment, education, connection, or just simply having fun. The fact that you can carry all this around in your pocket is one of the killer features leading to the rise of the app culture. Online casinos have been quick to pick up on this offering a customised experience tailored to on the go action rather than having to access a full website, which can be slow or cumbersome on a small display. The casino apps are perfectly customised to your device, offering seamless controls and clear action designed for the small screen. Allowing the user to play from literally anywhere using 4G or WiFi signals which are nearly ubiquitous now. However, with ease of access, there are still a few things you need to consider before plunging in.
A quick search of your play store or apple store will reveal a whole host of different casino apps available for you to download. The adage of ‘caveat emptor’ still holds true though as there are still plenty of unscrupulous vendors out there who have made apps that have passed the strict controls, both Google and Apple put in place. This is particularly true where you are going to be handing over details of your credit card or bank account so that you can play. Several things you should bear in mind when shopping for your casino apps. Is the company offering the app one that you have heard of? Many of the big names in gambling such as William Hill, Ladbrokes, BetFred, or Bet365 all have their apps, and these are a great place to start. You know the company is reputable, and you know that they are not going to steal your money. Even so, there are still a number of less recognisable names that are worth investigating as their offering are generally good.
Bonuses are the main tempter into downloading a casino app as it seems that most of the apps are offering a signup bonus, free plays, or even free cash to get you to join. Again this is an area you need to be wary of, as if the offer sounds too good to be true then it probably is. Sometimes you will need to create your account on the website using your desktop before you can start playing on your app, but most of the time you can dive right in, so this gives you an excellent opportunity to check out the company before you sign up. But if you want to jump right in, nothing is stopping you. Again with the signup bonuses, you want to look for the recognisable names as mentioned above as these are amongst some of the most generous, and you know you are not likely to be ripped off. All in all, there are plenty of good apps out there, and you should be able to find the right one for you.
