The online casino gaming trend has seen massive growth over the past few years which has been enhanced by the growing number of Europeans who have their Smartphone almost permanently attached to them, allowing them access to online casino gaming 24/7.
The Casino market in Europe constitutes approximately fifty percent of land based and online gambling casinos worldwide with a respectable 17 percent of this dedicated to top online casinos in the EU.
The Olive Press predict that the Spanish online gaming industry alone could grow to 9 figures over the coming years as European online gaming, particularly in the casino gaming sector skyrockets in popularity.
The Favourites
To get to the top of the European online casino gambling tree where there is a lot of competition, online providers need to have a point of difference or preferred features, bonuses and rewards.
Casumo Casino, listed in the top 3 European online Casino gaming providers has enhanced its offering to attract more of the European market with players in countries like Norway being one of their biggest areas of growth. This could be because Casumo casino’s bonuses offer European players up to a whopping €1200 welcome package plus 200 Free Spins. This far outweighs the offering of their top two competitors Dunder and Rizk whose welcome offering at its best is just half of this.
Aside from the bonuses there is very little between the top 5 European online casino providers. All have an excellent range of games and features that will keep even the most seasoned gambler glued to their screen and transfixed with the possibility of a ‘big win’.
Other aspects that should be considered are each providers level of payout and indeed their customer service offering as there is nothing worse than not being paid out instantly when you have come out ‘on top’. Even more disappointing or course is not coming out on top after some hearty investment, as such, we all agree payout levels are of great importance.
Game Selection
The more immersive and engaging the more play activity an online casino game will command. It is well worth researching the top games offered by each online European casino gaming provider, this is best achieved through reading real reviews from real players. Games are made popular through a combination of factors which not only relate to the style and features of the game itself but also to the ease of understanding how to play, the payout percentages and the chance to ‘win big’.
Most of the top providers of online European Casino games offer ‘live play’ where you experience playing other players around the world. Whilst the game concept itself is the same, the excitement and knowledge that you are playing an actual person and not a computer makes the experience that much more immersive.
Top of The Slots
European online casino games include every game you would expect to see in a land based casino such as Black Jack, Roulette and Poker, yet slot machine games were still by far the most played type of online casino game in 2018.
The most popular slots of 2018 include Starburst, Twin Spin Deluxe and Gonzo’s Quest to name but a few. Starburst is a timeless classic that clearly still holds the attention of players whilst Gonzo’s Quest makes the Top of The Slots as a newcomer only developed as a slot game in 2018.
The Virtual Casino Experience.
Many of those in Europe and the rest of the world that play online casino games have never actually set foot in a physical casino. The increased accessibility of online casino gaming means that anyone, almost anywhere in the world (that is over 18) can have the casino experience coupled with the comfort of being in their own armchair at home or even tucked up in their own bed without any of the dress code or trading hour restrictions that land based casinos are known for.
No wonder the industry has seen such a dramatic increase and is set to be one of the biggest growth sectors of the future.
