When it comes to online gambling, graphics are essential and Vegas Casino Online knows how to use this very important tool in many aspects. Sometimes the gaming demands an authentic feeling while some games require a more illusionary touch.

Good Money
There are several progressive jackpots available and they keep growing by the minute. This is of course a great attraction to many players. All though the chance to actually hit a jackpot is quite small, the very notion of it is enough for most to enjoy the gaming a tad extra. With numbers that pass $200,000 it could truly change a person's life to actually win a jackpot and this is a mind tickling thought.
While the new player won't be rewarded sums that are equal to the jackpots it is certainly rewarding to join the Vegas Casino Online. For the player that tries this casino for the first time there is a 125% initial sign up bonus for the first deposit. $20 to $100 must be deposited to get this bonus. If a player deposits more than this he will get $125 on the first $100 deposited and 25% on the rest of the amount. A player should also study carefully what payment options will give some additional bonus in order to start off with the maximum amount of money to play with.

All are Welcome but some with Restrictions
Vegas Casino Online is open to all but there are some things that are specific to certain countries. One of these things has to do with the payment options. The popular e-wallet systems are specifically rewarded with extra bonus but unfortunately this offer can't be fully enjoyed by all gamblers. Due to changes in policies US, Canadian and Turkish citizens will have to look over just what options they are allowed to use when it comes to this kind of money systems online.
US players are welcome in the casino but just like with the payment options it is up to the individual player to know what is legal in the state that he resides. Gambling always comes with the responsibility of being aware of these things. Turkish and Chinese players have to wager more than the regular customers in order to cash out their bonuses. Unfortunately such rules usually stem from abuse and this is the only way for a casino to tackle the problem.
Playing and paying it Safe
It is quite common to feel a bit apprehensive about making money transactions online. Even people that are used to carry out their regular bank business through the Internet can hesitate to exchange their personal information and details with an online casino.

The Vegas Casino Online staff goes to great lengths to keep each player safe and secret so that the information shared stays where it belongs.
Fair Gaming
Vegas Casino Online is powered by the Real Time Gaming software. This is software that is known to deliver fair gaming through a random number generator. The software company also carries a certificate by the TST, Technical Systems Testing. This ensures that the number generator has been evaluated and that it works properly to hinder any calculations of what numbers are coming up.

The casino also makes monthly reviews of the payout percentage to make sure that this complies with fairness and randomness. It can certainly be said about the Vegas Casino Online that they are a responsible and serious establishment.

At the Golden Casino.com everyone should be able to busy themselves with something that they love. Whether it is video poker, table games or a progressive slot machine chances are great to find just what you are looking for in this casino. It is not the sum of over 80 games that is impressive, after all many online casinos offer a great deal more than that, but rather the nice composition and variety of the existing selection.
It is recommended to make a download of the casino software to start to play but for the one that so wish it is also possible to play in an instant online version. The instant Flash version is also something that opens the casino to MAC and Linux users. The backside of the instant version is that it doesn't contain the full variety of games like the download but it can definitely be enjoyed at the same high level. The download runs smooth and is easy to make even for a less computer oriented person.
While there are casinos with a greater number of games available it must be said for the Golden Casino.com that the slot collection is quite outstanding. There are traditional slots, 3-reel slots, 5 and 7-reel video slots and progressive slots. Each category holds a great number of machines so this casino can certainly be recommended to the person looking specifically for a casino with a great slots repertoire. The table game section is also well sorted with a nice selection of poker games. When it comes to video poker the most popular versions are available all though the selection isn't the largest seen online.
The Golden Casino.com offers graphics that are pleasing to the eye and makes navigation easy. The casino lobby has a very nice and logic layout where the design doesn't interfere with the gaming. The games are also beautifully designed leaving the player with a good feeling of genuine casino fun. The Keno machine isn't only pretty to look at but also very easy to read and understand. The Roulette tables are presented in a real fashion so that it is clear by their very design when you're looking at the European and when it is the American Roulette.
For players that like to participate in tournaments the Golden Casino.com has a few to offer. All games can be played in tournament form which means that a player can enjoy his favorite game in competition. All he has to do is to think of a nickname and then he has a chance for a great time and to win additional bonus or credits for his gaming. This could also be a fun way to be more interactive with friends that are also playing in the casino all though each one sits in his own home.
Promotions that are worth the while
Except for many generous offers the part of the promotional section at the Golden Casino.com that stands out is their VIP program. Most casinos offer some kind of comp points program to reward their steady players with but it isn't always designed in an attractive way. At the Golden Casino.com the program is presented in levels that are all represented by a gemstone. The highest level is the Diamond or Level 9. This is where a player will get bonus money for the least of points and the weekly cash backs and bonuses given are also at the maximum level.
The VIP program has 6 levels, it starts on level 3 and goes up to 9, and for the busy player they should be traveled pretty fast and with great enjoyment as each level presents certain treats. A new player will automatically enter this lucrative program but he will also get the generous welcome bonus of 100% match bonus up to $555. This could very well be one of the most generous welcome bonuses available online at the moment as it can be received through the first deposit at once. As always it is important to remember that a bonus is meant to give more gambling not cash money.
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays are special bonus days at the Golden Casino.com. It starts with a 25% up to $1000 on Monday and continues with 50% up to $500 on Wednesday and on Friday a 100% is given up to $250 for the first purchase of the day. This is a nice way to keep the week full of good bonus offers also to the regular players. Apart from this there are daily and weekly surprises to spice up the gaming with and certain deposit methods will earn additional bonus.
Dealing with money
The Golden Casino.com is open to all but all business is made in US dollars. If a player makes a deposit in another currency he will have to keep in mind that the money will be converted according to the rate of his bank or Credit Card Company and this could reduce the actual money to play for. The same goes for withdrawals of winnings and this is something each individual player will have to check up before starting to play for money.
To make a withdrawal the sum has to be at least $50 and it can't be greater than $8000 in one payout. If a player has made a greater winning than $8000 he will receive the amount in several installments. There are many ways to withdraw money and no matter where a player resides he should be able to find one suitable to him. To deposit all the major credit cards can be used as well as Click2Pay, MyCitadel, Neteller and Solid the prepaid debit card.
A new player is requested to leave his credit card information when he registers but to some this is too much to ask for and the casino understands that. A player that doesn't want to send such sensitive information upon joining the casino can contact the customer service and get help to go through the registration process while excluding this information. This is a nice and flexible feature that shows that the casino takes measures to meet the needs of the individual player.
This is a casino for players that can conduct their gaming in a normal fashion. It doesn't offer special help links for addicted players the way many other online casinos do. While some might see this as a minus it should be said that the casino staff is very dedicated and highly likely to spot a player displaying abnormal behavior.
Is my identity and money safe with the casino?
This is a question that must be posed by anyone thinking of sharing his personal details through the Internet. The Golden Casino.com does take precautions when it comes to the safety of the person and the money that are up to the industry standards of today. Transactions are guarded by the known and internationally recognized Secure Socket Layers (SSL) technology and this means that the casino is as safe as any commercial bank to deal with.
Feeling safe isn't only connected to all of the technical precautions but also very much to how the interactions between the casino and player works. In a land-based casino the communication between customer and staff is always faster and face to face. Online this must be replicated somehow. The Golden Casino.com uses two methods that are fast and easy, that is the telephone and email support. The phone lines are toll free from the USA and both services are available 24/7. The replies are fast to return and in a very friendly and pleasant manner. This is probably the closest a person sitting at home in front of his computer can get to the casino staff.
The Golden Casino.com is a serious establishment and they are licensed in Curacao. All players are carefully checked before any transactions are made to ensure that they are who they claim to be. This might lead to some delays in payouts but the benefits of the casino acting careful are greater than the irritation from a day extra of waiting for a withdrawal. Anyone looking for a fun but serious casino to play with should feel at home at the Golden Casino.com. It offers the perfect mixture of great gaming and good chances to actually win some money and is suitable to all levels of players.

4 STEPS TO TAKE IF YOU ARE NOT RECEIVING YOUR PAYOUT
Introduction
One of the worst things that can happen to a person during their online casino experience is to not receive the payout that they requested. This is because casino players tend to have a dim view of the online casino business already and that is a view that is accentuated when something like this happens. While it is quite understandable to feel angry and betrayed if you do not receive your payout, if possible you should try to avoid giving into those emotions because they can only make the situation worse. If the casino is indeed a rogue casino, then lashing out at them is going to do nothing to make them process your payout and if the casino is a reputable one and a simple mistake has been made, then lashing out at them will do nothing good and might make the situation worse.
If you have not received your payout, try and follow these steps in order to get it back.
Step 1
The first thing you should do before anything else is to contact the customer support service that is located at your specific casino. This is because the first thing that you should suspect if you have not received your payout is that the casino in question simply had a hiccup in processing that payout and you should expect that reminding them about it will cause them to get on the case immediately. Well over 90% of payouts that are not received are not received because of some oversight and not because of ill motives on the part of the online casino, so make sure that you contact them first in order to get the situation straightened out.
Step 2
If customer support does not resolve the problem for you, either through inability to do so or in rarer cases flat out refusal to help you, then your next step is to go over the heads of customer support and contact the manager of the casino. This is either the person that is listed as the webmaster of the online casino or it is an e-mail to a supervisor that you can get from customer support (they are required to give it to you in the end, even if they might be reluctant to do so originally). Contact that person and forward the case up to their level so that you can ensure that your payout is received. This should be your second step, before doing anything else.
Step 3
In the rare cases that neither the customer support team nor the manager is able to help you, then take your case to the software dispute service. This service will be any third party service listed on their website as giving them certification because of course the third party services have to stand behind the endorsements that they give. If you do this, you will have a much better chance of getting your money back or at least getting the full story about what has happened to it.
Step 4
If none of these steps work, then as a last resort you should consider talking to a lawyer and getting some advice about what your legal options are. However, doing this right at the start has the potential to ruin your relationship with the casino and court cases are very long things and will prolong the amount of time it takes you to get your money back. It is highly preferable to solve these things before they go to court.
