New Online Casinos are Safe and Secure

Joonas Karhu, Chief Business Officer at Bojoko, says that new online casinos like MegaRush offer Canadian players the highest levels of protection

Online casino is a hugely popular entertainment activity enjoyed by thousands of players across Canada and indeed North America. If you are reading this, the chances are you too enjoy spinning the reels on a variety of slots or playing a hand or two of blackjack.

New online casinos provide players with a fresh environment in which to enjoy playing these games, and MegaRush is quickly emerging as one of the most popular – it has already received incredible feedback from the Bojoko community and our team of expert testers.

This is because it provides a smooth and seamless player experience across desktop and mobile, has a well-stocked game lobby as well as a wide range of payment options for depositing into and withdrawing from your wagering account.

But most importantly, MegaRush takes responsible gambling and safe gaming seriously. The casino gives you all the tools you need to stay in control of your play – and gambling spend – at all times which means your time spent at the casino remains fun.

These are some of the tools you can use to stay in control of your play at MegaRush and any other new online casino that accepts players from Canada;

Deposit limit: this allows you to set a maximum value for deposits over a set time, whether that be a day, a week or even a month. Once you have reached your deposit limit, you will not be able to make additional deposits until the time limit has elapsed.

Loss limit: this allows you to control your losses. You should never gamble more than you can afford to lose and by setting a loss limit your play will automatically be stopped once you have hit your loss threshold. Again, limits are set for a day, a week or a month.

Bet limit: You don’t have to bet big to have a fun and thrilling experience at an online casino. Most people do not have a big bank roll, and while it is tempting to bet big to win big, it is far more important to stay in control of the bet size you are placing.

Session limit: Online casino is fun and it can be easy to lose track of how long you have been playing for. By setting session limits you can be automatically notified after set time periods – 15 mins, 20 mins, 30 mins etc. Use these notifications to stay on top of how long you have been playing for.

Cooling off: If you think you have been playing more than you should, then most new online casinos will allow you to have a cooling off period. This is where you block access to your account for a period of time – a day, a week, a month – and have some time away from the casino.

It is always recommended to set these limits as soon as you sign up to a new online casino such as MegaRush and to keep them in place at all times while you are playing – in most cases it will take a couple of days for a change to limits to come into force.

As well as using responsible gambling tools to stay in control of your play, you should also pay close attention to the bonuses and promotions offered by new online casinos and in particular the terms and conditions they come with. T&Cs can and do include:

Minimum deposits to trigger the bonus

Limits on the amount you can win

Wagering requirements

Time limits to complete wagering requirements

These terms and conditions can have a significant impact on the value the bonus and promotion offers. Take a wagering requirement, for example, this is the multiplier you must wager the bonus, bonus winnings and sometimes both, before you can unlock your winnings as cash.

Wagering requirements can range from x10 all the way up to x60 and beyond. So, a deposit bonus of $100 with a x60 wagering requirement on the deposit bonus would mean you have to wager $6,000 before you can unlock any winnings as cash.

Of course, this could lead to you betting outside of your means, placing bigger bets than you can afford and playing for longer sessions than you should. This is why understanding T&Cs, and setting limits, is so important when it comes to ensuring gambling remains fun.

If you do not like the idea of having to complete wagering requirements then you will be pleased to know that a growing number of new online casinos in Canada now offer bonuses that come with low wagering requirements or no wagering requirements whatsoever.

Even for casinos that do impose wagering requirements, more and more brands are now making their terms and conditions clear and simple for players to understand. And at Bojoko we also clearly explain the terms and conditions that come attached to the bonuses offered by our partners.

More and more players across Canada are enjoying online casinos, and new casino sites can and do offer a superior experience to some of the more established brands. And this is certainly the case when it comes to how players are protected.

MegaRush is one of those casinos and that is why we are happy to list the brand on Bojoko and allow our members to share their experience with others as we know it offers one of the best casino experiences to players in Canada.
