The system awards $2 for every $60 wagered however i can set you up with bonuses that awards $10 for every $300 or $20 for every $600 etc etc
Actually, we can do any combination, the player can choose how they want to receive the cashback whether it be in $2 increments or even in $100 increments. We have this working with a number of players and we guarantee it with some players i.e. if a player has a run of bad luck and does not earn the cashback, we will simply add it manually. They can continue to play with it or they can cash it out.
Unfortunately we cannot let it all accumulate in the account for later use, because we carry over unearned cashback for every deposit, there are some tech issues with this we still have not been able to solve. The above solution almost solves this by changing when the cashback is released and how much is released in each increment.
If ANY players want a custom cashback bonus at Wintingo, please PM me your account details and i will set it up for you
I re-read the post, sorry for that, was not my intention, i was generalizing.
Hmm...
Double hmmm.
Requested by whom? Sounds like censorship to me, which is very anti-CM.
What's the go Matt?
Out of interest, what's the tech difference between crediting the $2 into a seperate "account" rather than the normal playing account? Doesn't appear to be that hard, but then I'm not a programmer.
I'm just not a fan of the "drip feed". It just doesn't really help me to win, which is kinda what you suggest other casinos do. If your system DOES help me win, them I'm happy for you to explain it to me.
I never said that our system helps you to win, our system simply removes the restrictive conditions that stop players from withdrawing their own funds and the funds they win without meeting wagering requirements of bonuses. As i mentioned in previous post, we can avoid the "drip feed" by changing how you receive the cashback i.e. from $2 in $60, to $10 in $300, $20 in $600 etc etc... depending on the type of player you are, we can accommodate pretty much all requests relating to cashpay release (apart from the batch processing of course which i explained above)I'm just not a fan of the "drip feed".

I was told that we are not allowed to mention a players bet amounts so i requested that the post be edited.
Again, i'm not attacking 32red in this instance. This was not my intention at all. I'm generalizing about why casinos want players to play with bonus money.
We have a one wallet solution and therefore there is no separation between real money and bonus money, its all just real money. To develop separate wallets now is a very complicated and time consuming process. We also need our regulator to approve the development work as it deals mainly with customer balances. It's not really justified in our opinion however we know players are requesting this functionality. We thought rather allow players to control "when" they receive the cashback instead by changing the wagering increments that trigger cashback release. It's "almost" the same thing and a temporary solution until we get to figuring out how best to implement a true automated batch solution.

I dont believe i mentioned anywhere about "bank roll guarantee"?? All i mentioned was allowing players to withdraw their own funds and any funds they have won at any time.I played loaded on massive hands to see how would real cash drip correlate to huge bankroll bets for myself. It didn't - as you said yourself it only cashed back at 16% instead of the advertised 100% (i think) and that's directly correlated to generated volume so there is no bankroll guarantee.
so as a result i was seeing how far my cashback goes in proportion to the advertised 100% on playing high volatility at large bet size - as you said 16%. it's self protective and that's great. If i happened to hit lucky in the first few hands then id have hit lucky with my initial balance anyway on any casino.
On the other hand, please understand that "we the sneaky ones" guarantee the double bankrolls as an amount upfront and do not have it volume controlled and as such need to protect ourselves from players playing at our casinos exatly how i played on yours. Your protection dropped my bonus amount from 100% as advertised to 16% - our system give 100% upfront, but as such needs the WR and the max bet as deterrent.
I don't call your system evil or sneky for giving me less bonus that my promised 100% as such you shouldn't berate ours(32Reds or anyone's) without understanding it either.
Rather than have to arrange this with the casino, why not have a "preferences" page for players to tailor aspects of their account, and this could include adding the value of the increments for the awarding of cashback. If players set a high enough value, then it IS pretty much "the same thing", even though players would have to keep on top of their profile settings in order to control the triggering.
What players need is an amount that they notice going in to their balance, and $2 is hardly going to get noticed at all, so even though they are getting it, players are not "experiencing" the benefit, so it is effectively like playing without any kind of incentive.
The benefits of a "batch" solution are that players would have something they are familiar with, the cashing in of loyalty points at most other casinos, but coupled with a far better rate of accrual than the standard 0.1% seen elsewhere.
I dont believe i mentioned anywhere about "bank roll guarantee"?? All i mentioned was allowing players to withdraw their own funds and any funds they have won at any time.
Yes but if you hit lucky in the beginning and you played with a bonus then you would need to complete wagering before you can cash out. This is a restrictive term, this is my main argument.
Please also note, with Cashpay if a player does not manage to earn his full cashback (like in your case), should the player want to deposit again (even after he has a withdrawal pending) he will still be eligible to earn any un-realised cashback from previous deposits and any cashback that is connected to the new deposit. We carry over any un-earned cashback from one deposit to the next.
Your 100% upfront bonus sounds great, its standard industry practice as far as i can see. Our protection (as you say) did no such thing, the way you played (High volatility/large bets) could happen at any casino.
I'm not being arrogant here but we are fortunate enough that we don't need to protect ourselves from players that play in your style. All types of players are free to play how they like, when they like and any game they like (games do however have different weighting in order to earn the stated cashback). This is my whole point Igor, as you say you came onto Wintingo, you placed massive bets and still earned 16% of your bonus (volume controlled), if you won big you could have cashed out straight away because you already completed the required wagering in order to earn the 16% and therefore you did nothing untoward or you did not break any complicated bonus rule. In this case you were lucky, its gambling, you won and because there is no wagering requirement to withdraw, you are owed the money.
Again, please do your research. If you deposit a 100 now, get 100 bonus, put 100 on bacarrat and make the real balance in to 200 - now you will have 200 real and 100 bonus. You can withdraw the real balance of 200 and anul the bonus balance of 100.
Much of what you argue is true Igor, but this:
is generally not the case: most Casinos never even will let you play table games on 100% match ups, or make bets consisting of more then half of your bankroll, which i think WT was referring to, but to me it is understandable to ensure some basic level of AP-protection
So maybe it is the case in Bet-At-Eu, but "normal" MG operators, and heaps of other provider-powered Casinos do have restrictions on bonuses, and force you to bust or make playthrough under set terms.
Nothing new really but for the sake of argument, i think i should point that out
If my RTP happens to be particularly bad for that session my awarded cashback will be far lower than advertised at the point of my deposit and i will get nowhere near my 100% cashback on my losses.
Its something we are working on, i have said it before, i think you are right here, a batch solution would be GREAT!. Unfortunately at the moment its manual but its very straightforward. You simply need to PM me with your details, it takes 5 minutes to implement it.
For a single session, this is true, and in such cases a traditional bonus would at least offer a chance to climb back out and get a better overall RTP, but the disadvantage is the WR. Wintingo, however, allow the unearned cashback to carry over, so a player that continues to deposit will get closer to the long term expected RTP, and thus would end up having a balancing good session that earned all the carried cashbacks from previous offers.
The original Clearplay DID allow the withdrawal of real money and winnings at any time, with the bonus then removed, it was simple in concept, but it didn't take long for Advantage Players to spot the main flaw, and it was to bet 200 on Baccarat (100 real, 100 bonus), and withdraw 200 on a winning bet, but lose only 100 if unlucky.
Clearplay did nothing to protect casinos against advantage players, so operators modified it, most only keeping the concept of game weightings, but going back to the traditional locking in of all money till WR was completed.
Most casinos still like traditional bonuses, and many players like the idea. What they DON'T like are all the complicated terms, and the fact that some casinos use them as "traps" to punish even the minor mistakes like a misclick, which is using them to maximise profit, rather than to protect the casino from determined Advantage Players.
This is an argument between two different attempts to address the issue, we have the bonus free cashback model vs the redesigned bonus model that should mean most players CANNOT ever reach a point where a casino confiscates their winnings, yet Advantage Players find that their usual strategies are blocked at source, such as overlimit bets being declined, or outstanding WR being increased in proportion to any breach of bet limits.
The thing that needs to be addressed now is ID for players. This is getting so complicated that some players just cannot comply, even though they are fine, honest, upstanding citizens, not devious scammers.
Just as some clubs and theme parks do, the industry should operate it's own system for giving players a universal ID that can be used at any casino. It would mean players getting thoroughly vetted and verified once, and with whatever ID and documents they get from their government, along with various database checks, and issued with a "Casino photo ID" card in the post, that they then use to prove their ID to each casino they play at.
If I buy an annual pass for the big theme park company in the UK, they don't ask me to show my passport each time I enter (relying then on an internal database to check my pass status), they issue me a photo pass valid for that year, and this is checked upon entry. This means that even without a passport or driving license, I would still be able to purchase an annual pass, something that would not be possible if they relied on government photo ID and a database check.
Like online casinos, a theme park is part of the "entertainment industry".
How do you mean ? You already have code written to do batch payments and just want a PM of specific requests? Or that you think it could be coded quickly if somebody sends you details of HOW it should be plugged in?
I totally agree that the option to let all the cashback build and collect in one go would be fantastic, as it stands I can definitely agree since signing up last night and collecting £12 of cashback I didn't notice receiving the payment even once and infact by the 5th time was watching my balance when it clocked over to see if it was actually happening or not, wondering if perhaps i needed to go find a button to redeem what I had collected...
It's definitely a great idea though and the fact it rolls over between deposits is again, really really nice.
Side note: Whilst I have been experiencing some ROTTEN runs of luck at Wintingo since last night, somehow I am also sitting pretty at nearly 6x my deposit .. the first time I've not busted out before doubling my money in weeks! Please lord say I have reached the other side of my money sucking chasm ??? ...
I'm going to mosey on over to betatau later on tonight. Is that the clearplay system?
ID is totally irrelevant to this discussion.
Why would you even bring that up, besides the fact it is your "bugbear of the decade"?
Yes, this is my whole point - these players should never join a site unless they do, they are a danger to themselves. If some sites idiot-proof then players will become even more complacent when playing at those who don't and will surely be stung eventually, then will appear here bleating after the event.
