Free Spins vs. Match vs. No Deposit

Is one casino bonus better than another? Some of them certainly make bigger headlines than others, such as the ones we'll cover here. We're going to look at three of the best:

• Free spins
• Match offers
• No deposit bonuses

How does a free spin offer work?

This deal gives you a set of free spins, each bearing the same value, to use on slots. According to the details, you might be able to use them on all but the progressive jackpot slots, slots from a certain developer, or a named game - usually a newly-released one. Some free spin offers require a deposit while others are granted as no deposit offers (see below).

What are match bonuses?

The match bonus is designed to give you some bonus funds to match the qualifying deposit you decide to make. They usually impose a minimum deposit amount, although the best casinos keep this low, with $10 a common starting point. There is usually also a maximum amount of bonus cash you can claim. For example, you might see a 100% bonus to the value of $100, so if you deposit more than $100, you will still get the maximum amount of $100.

How do no deposit bonuses work?

You won't need to make a deposit of any size to get one of these. Indeed, some casinos offer this ahead of a match bonus. They're designed to cater to the newest visitors who haven't created accounts yet.

Check the terms for these deals, as there might be a ceiling on winnings gleaned from a no deposit offer. Alternatively, they'll have wagering requirements to hit prior to withdrawing becoming a possibility.

Which deal is best?

There is no clear answer here, as casinos will impose different rules on each offer. This means one offer could be significantly better than another depending on which site you're on. However, it's worth comparing all three whenever you find them, so you can be sure of claiming the offer that is most suitable for you. They're all appealing, especially with fair terms connected to them, and they give you a chance to explore a new site too.
