Taking Your Casino Experience Online Post-Pandemic

If you were a big casino fan before the pandemic, you probably want to return to the game floor. However, while the industry is bouncing back, it is still unsafe. You may take all the precautions you like, but there is still the chance that you could get sick. Eliminate all the risks by moving your gambling experience online. Many gamblers now spend their time online instead of actually going to a physical casino. Here are some reasons why you should take this option.
It saves time and money
One of the advantages of online gambling is that you can directly start playing without any extra expenses or wasted time. Brick-and-mortar casinos are common, and you can find some excellent ones. However, it does mean leaving your house and piling on the expenses. The trip and accommodations are not how you want to spend your money. You want to focus your bankroll on the gaming floor.
With online gambling, your money will directly go into your gaming experience. For example, when you want to start playing, you can log on to a site like CasinoDays and start playing. There is no need to get on a plane or travel before you can start enjoying a game. You also avoid overpriced drinks and food. If you are hungry, you can order some take-out and continue your gambling fun.
It provides a comparable experience
The attraction of dropping by a casino is the complete gambling experience and the ambience. While you may not fully get it with online gambling, you will still have a fun time and full experience. In the past, online casinos limited themselves to slots. However, modern technology now allows for a lot of variety. Live gaming tables are very popular since they allow interaction with dealers and other players. Players stream videos of gaming tables, whether it is roulette or blackjack. Poker is also available for online players, but the virtual table is very different from looking at other players in their eyes. Overall, online casinos will deliver all the games that you want.
Freedom of choice
The real advantage of online casinos is the freedom it gives you. Going to a brick-and-mortar casino adds limitations to your gambling experience since you can only play the games that they offer while following their rules. Leaving is also a complex process that locks you into play. Online casinos make it a lot simpler and easier. For example, you can log in and log out at any time that is convenient for you. Additionally, your payment options are up to you. Set your limits and use the payment channel that you prefer. With these choices, you will be safer and more comfortable.
Final thoughts
Going fully online for your gambling needs can make it simpler for you. All you need to start playing is a decent internet connection. Combined with the reasons above, you should be able to have your gambling fun without leaving your home.

BCLC
BCLC Reminds Public to be Cautious of Illegal Online Casino Scams

BCLC has reminded the public to be cautious of a series of social media scams that imitate B.C. casinos and trick individuals into providing their financial details on illegitimate websites.
Highly deceptive, these scams share fraudulent posts and advertisements exploiting the logos, names, and exterior images of local B.C. casinos, and may claim to offer players exclusive bonuses and promotions if they register with their website or mobile application. BCLC warns that none of these sites are associated with casinos in B.C. or BCLC.
PlayNow.com is the only online gambling website permitted to operate in B.C. BCLC’s official apps are BCLC Lotto!, PlayNow Poker BC, and PlayNow BC Sportsbook. All BCLC-operated social media accounts, such as BCLC, PlayNow BC, PlayNow Sports, Lotto BC and Casinos BC, are verified with a checkmark.
While BCLC and its casino partners continue to work on having the posts removed, British Columbians should stay vigilant when it comes to these predatory and sophisticated scams.
To protect themselves, individuals are encouraged to:
• Be on alert when a website or app asks for personal or financial information. BCLC’s verified websites and apps will never ask for your social insurance number (SIN), banking information or credit card details online to claim a prize from a B.C. casino.
• Carefully check the URL and domain of the website to verify its legitimacy. Often, scammers will use a similar URL and domain to legitimate websites with a minor spelling difference.
• Always verify the company and its services are real before providing any personal information.
• Look out for other red flags, such as the suggestion of fees or taxes to be paid on a prize. There are no fees or taxes on prizes won in Canada.
If individuals feel unsure about an account, post or advertisement claiming to represent a B.C. casino, they can contact BCLC directly by calling the Customer Support Centre at 1-866-815-0222, or using the live chat resource on corporate.bclc.com or PlayNow.com.
