Casino.online expands its offer for Canadian users

Published

on

Casino.online is a company that started in the DACH region and is now growing in the UK, Japan, US, and Canada. It is a company that offers online gaming, lottery, and sports betting. New players from Canada are not the only ones happy about the new online gambling regulations in their home country. The market is booming for international operators like Casino.online, which has just unveiled a brand-new version of its website, especially for Canadians.

With this move, Casino.online has become one of the first and most successful operators that acknowledges and addresses the needs of Canadian gamblers. Now they can enjoy all the best games from their own country and begin a new, more exciting chapter in their love affair with the slots in general and with specialties such as Video Poker or Multi-line Slots that have great potential to become even more popular with Canadian players than they are right now.

Check out the new Casino.online platform

The new Casino.online website is designed to be easy to use and navigate and to provide a top-level user experience. The site is completely responsive, so it will automatically adjust to look good on any device or browser, including mobile devices. The design and colors of the site are elegant and inviting, with a focus on Slots as the main attraction. The top-level menu will help you find everything easily and quickly. Some other features might make a difference to you. This is even more important to Canadian players since they will be able to access the site without having to download or register an account – which is not allowed by the laws in their country. This makes the experience smoother and more convenient for everyone.

Welcome bonus for new players

The rules of the welcome bonus for new players are straightforward, which is not surprising since the operator wants to make sure that Canadians get the most out of the generous offer. The first thing you should do is to sign up with your email address and name. After registering, you will receive an email with a link to activate your account and make your first deposit. The minimum deposit is CAD 40 and you can choose to have the bonus added to your account immediately. This will give you a nice head start for your future gambling activities.

200% match bonus for all new users!

The welcome bonus is a one-time gift, but the operator has prepared something even better for all the new players who want to experience the best Slots games at Casino.online. The operator is offering a 200% match bonus to the first deposit on the first five consecutive days! The maximum bonus amount is CAD 800, which is quite a lot. You can withdraw your winnings after you have gambled through the bonus amount five times.

VIP program for loyal Canadian players

A VIP program is a very popular feature among online casinos and a great way to reward loyal players. The Casino.online VIP program is not yet available, but the operator is planning to introduce it soon. The program will include rewards for loyal players, such as bonuses and special offers.

Casino.online has been one of the best gambling sites for years, but it has also always been one of the most popular sites for Canadian gamblers. The new platform will give players even more reasons to love this casino. The new design is modern and sleek, and the site will be fully responsive so that it will look great on any device. Now Canadian players can access their favourite slot games without having to download any software. The new platform will also have an improved loyalty program and new games.

2023 saw Hacksaw Gaming go live in West Virginia and New Jersey and now we have made our long-awaited entry in Ontario, Canada. Securing this trio has hit new heights and hopes for further successes throughout the rest of this year.

DraftKings Casino entered the iGaming market in Ontario in May of 2022 and partnered with Hacksaw Gaming in the back end of the same year. As Ontario’s regulated iGaming market only went live in April of 2022, the pair have given an outstanding performance with effective launch strategies and expansive footing in North America.

Apart from gaining an unprecedented reach across regulated markets, the mobile-friendly format of Hacksaw Gaming games can be visited on phone or tablet via the DraftKings Casino app. Boasting an impressive online casino’s selection of over 300 games, DraftKings now welcomes Hacksaw Gaming favourites such as Chaos Crew, Mines, Omnom and Boxes.

“The benchmarks we have set as a partnership are remarkable and we are ready to take on more challenges continuing into 2024,” the Chief Executive Officer for Hacksaw Gaming, Marcus Cordes, said.

Exploring Canada’s video Game Market: Survey Insights

Published

exploring-canada’s-video-game-market:-survey-insights

 

Technology has become a great source of entertainment to many. Video games particularly have garnered interest from all demographics. In Canada, the gaming industry has experienced significant growth, fuelled by increased accessibility to gaming platforms and the growth of online gaming communities.

Statistics indicate that a large percentage of Canadians are engaged in gaming activities, whether it be playing console or PC games, mobile games, or online multiplayer games. The popularity of video games extends beyond leisure pastimes, with many Canadians participating in gaming competitions, attending gaming conventions, and consuming gaming-related content on platforms like Twitch and YouTube.

The number of video game users in Canada reflects how broad the sector is, from mobile games to digital video games, download games and live streaming. In 2024, the gaming sector will see millions of users in each of these categories. Statista projects 13.38 million users for digital video games and 7.35 million users for online games respectively. It estimates that revenue in the Canadian video game market is expected to reach US$3,925.00m in 2024, so it is no surprise to observe the increasing popularity of the sector.

Well-known online casino provider BetVictor has compiled some key points from major surveys detailing the video game market to give further insight into its makeup and potential. The gaming culture in Canada is growing, which means the type of games and genres will grow along with the sector. Statista recently conducted a survey of 1 576 respondents aged 18 – 64 who are avid video game players, with telling results. ​​In December 2023, a survey about preferred video game genres in Canada revealed the top four genres as being Action, Action – adventure, Adventure and casual games accounting for 31% of respondents’ preferences.

David Winter, Marketing Manager at BetVictor notes that “We’ve seen a steady increase in the popularity of action-themed and adventure-themed slots and many providers are exploring how to expand further into this market.”

The popularity of Action games such as platform and fighting games can be attributed to various factors, such as: social interaction, accessibility and inclusivity, social appeal, and cultural influence. With such a diverse audience, all these factors are crucial to understand the appeal of Action games.

In the digital age, gaming has transcended mere entertainment to become a cornerstone of culture, and nowhere is this more evident than in Canada. From coast to coast, a diverse community of gamers is thriving, reflecting the country’s inclusive spirit and passion for technology. Whether it’s the casual gamer enjoying a quick session on their smartphone or the dedicated enthusiast meticulously building a custom gaming PC, Canada offers a welcome haven for all kinds of gamers.

Diving deeper into the Statista results, Strategy games accounted for 29%. This shows us that players have a strong interest in tactical and decision-making games. While role-playing (RPG) and sports games garnered 22% each, simulation and shooters trailed slightly behind at 21% and 20% respectively.

MMO (massively multiplayer online games), as well as MMORPGs (massively multiplayer online role-playing games) and MOBA (multi online battle arenas) came in at 13% and 8% respectively, representing a significant but niche following. With such a diverse array of preferences, the survey underscores the multifaceted nature of interests among Canadian gamers. It highlights the need for game developers to cater for a wide range of genres and gameplaying styles in the Canadian market.

From action shooter games to role-playing adventures, the industry has something for every gaming enthusiast in the Canadian market. Overall, the popularity of video games in Canada reflects a growing cultural phenomenon, where gaming has become a mainstream form of entertainment and a significant aspect of modern-day leisure activities.

Statistics anticipate a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.10% for 2022-2027, resulting in a projected market volume of US$24.52bn by 2027. Canada’s online gaming market is experiencing a surge in popularity, with a surging number of Canadian players engaging in immersive virtual reality experiences.
