Players that want to start out big on a new NZ casino site will usually look for the biggest welcome bonus advertised. Signing up for a site is free and easy, but casinos are focused on persuading users to actually make the first deposit. A considerable welcome bonus is going to make it more appealing to put real money into the game, and the casino advertisers are more than willing to make new players feel at home. The deposit amount must meet the minimum requirements, and the user might need to wager a certain amount to generate the bonus. There is a common trick that online casino regulars use to collect as much bonus money as they can before settling into one site. The practice of bonus whoring entails meeting the minimum requirements to collect a signup bonus, which will be cashed out to use on another new site. Since the casinos don't have a restriction on using a number of different sites at the same time, players are able to make the rounds to collect incentives.

Online gambling has taken off in New Zealand, a move that is slowly making land-based casinos to be obsolete. If you are new to the concept of online gaming, you probably don’t know that online casinos are so generous that they give out free money to players.  Well, it may not be “free” at all due to attached strings but technically, it’s free money. One of the most common bonuses offered by online casinos in NZ is the sign up bonus.

What’s a sign up bonus?

Do you know you can get a couple of New Zealand dollars just by registering with an online casino? Well, now you know. A sign up bonus is a bonus given to players after initially registering with an online casino. Meaning, you can only receive the sign up bonus once in your gaming career. They are several variants of the sign up bonus as discussed below.

1. Deposit sign up bonus

To give you a financial edge, online casinos in New Zealand offer you with an opportunity to increase your bankroll in your first deposit after sign up. The deposit bonus is usually expressed as a percentage of deposited funds and hence “the more you deposit, the higher the bonus” you get.

2. No Deposit Bonus

Another variant of the sign up bonus is the no deposit bonus. A no deposit bonus is a cash bonus ( or free spins) offered to new players without necessarily having to commit financially. Meaning, every player who signs up with the casino is given a fixed cash bonus which can be used to wager on games available. This bonus –as is with all other bonuses- can’t be withdrawn instantly but the player has to meet the wagering requirements.

3. Free spins

The sign up bonus can also be in the form of free spins. With free spins, you are given a chance to spin virtual reels either on your favorite pokie or specific pokie without having to place a wager.  If for instance you are given 30 free spins on Starburst slot, you can only redeem the free rounds on the starburst slot before they expire.

How do I get a sign up bonus?

Getting the sign up bonus is pretty straightforward since you only have to sign up with an online casino offering the bonus. It is imperative to note that you may be required to input a bonus claim code when signing up to be eligible for some sign up bonuses. Additionally, to be eligible for sign up bonuses such as deposit bonuses and deposit free spins, you have to make a deposit to receive the bonus.

Almost all New Zealand online casino offers a sign up bonus. Some even offer multiple sign bonuses and hence you will be always spoilt for choice. However, it is worth noting that the bonuses are not “technically” free money but they come with conditions which you must satisfy to be able to withdraw the bonus as well as the accrued winnings.
