Taking Your Casino Experience Online Post-Pandemic

Published

on

 

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.

AGCO Removes Cap on Seller Commission for Charitable Lottery Products

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has updated several lottery policies to remove the cap on seller commission for Paper Raffles and Media Bingo, along with removing the prohibition on Catch the Ace paper lotteries, to align with other charitable lottery products.

Licensed charities may now negotiate commissions directly with sellers and determine commissions, provided they are reasonable and tied to the cost of service provided by the seller.

These updates further the AGCO’s commitment to adopt an outcomes-based regulatory approach and reduce burden for the charitable gaming sector. Local charitable organizations will have greater flexibility to make decisions that best serve their fundraising objectives.

Important Reminders

• Charities must still receive approval for other expenses incurred under their licence and retain receipts for seller commission paid.

• Licensing authorities will not require documentation to be submitted as part of the application process, however, charities are still subject to audit to determine compliance.

• Charities are reminded of their legal requirement to meet their obligations under the Criminal Code and with respect to conducting and managing a charitable gaming scheme.

• As with all licensed charitable lottery events, charities must take the necessary steps to ensure that they are conducting and managing the lottery event within Ontario.

For charitable gaming-related inquiries, email an AGCO Eligibility Officer at [email protected] or call AGCO Customer Service at 1-800-522-2876, Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
