Online Craps Bonuses

One of the exciting things about playing casino games online is that you get to participate in promotions that brick and mortar casinos don’t have. Our favorite online casinos offer some of the best craps bonuses on the web today, especially at our featured site, Bovada.lv.

Bonuses are free money promos that the online casinos offer to their players to encourage them to sign-up and deposit for the first time, come back, deposit and play more, or just to reward them for playing so much.

Does free money sound good to you? When doesn’t it?

Well, below we’ve listed the casinos that have the best bonuses for craps players. Just choose a casino, create an account and make a deposit to get started.

6 Facts to Know About Craps Bonuses

1. (Most) Casinos Don’t Allow Craps Players to Earn Bonuses

Unfortunately, the majority of online casinos don’t allow craps players to participate in their bonus offers. The only way you can participate in a bonus is to play a game like keno, scratch tickets or slots. Even games like video poker and blackjack are excluded.

The casinos do this because the edge on these games are much smaller compared to slots or keno. For example, on the pass bet the house edge is only 1.41%. That’s nearly a coin-flip. Casinos don’t make money on coin flips, but on games where the edge is 10, 20 or 30 percent in their favor. In fact, with a coin flip it’s possible that the casino experiences a short run of bad luck and lose money to the players. That’s on top of paying them their bonus.

2. Casinos That Do Have Absurd Clearing Requirements

If you do find a casino that lets craps players participate in the bonus, they’ll tweak the clearing requirements to make it harder for players to complete. For example, a typical clearing requirement might be 20x the deposit plus bonus. So if your deposit and bonus is $100 each, then you will have to wager $4,000 before you will get your bonus money.

However, with craps (or blackjack or video poker), the casino will ask that you wager 2-4x as much. So instead of $4,000, you’ll be asked to wager $8,000 to $16,000.

That’s a hefty price to pay for a $100 bonus offer, wouldn’t you say? I don’t even think it’s worth it at that point.

3. Craps Can Participate in Other Promotions

There is good news, though. If you aren’t able to participate in the deposit or reload bonus, you still might be able to participate in one of the casino’s other promotions. Online casinos run all kinds of promotions, from tournaments to cash back to VIP programs.

Keep in mind that (most of the) promotions will have clearing requirements. You may or may not have to wager more money if you choose to play craps. You’ll want to read the terms and conditions to make sure.

4. Casino Promotions Have Expiration Dates

While you’re reading the terms and conditions you’ll want to be on the lookout for an expiration date. The majority of online casinos will state that you will need to clear your bonus within a certain time frame, usually 30-90 days. If you don’t clear the bonus within that timeframe you can lose whatever money you didn’t manage to clear, and sometimes your entire bonus.

You want to know how long you have to clear the bonus, because if you need to clear something outrageous like $8,000 for a $100 bonus, and you only have 30 days to do it, you’re better off passing on the bonus altogether. Or find a casino with better terms – or take it a notch higher and just get bankrolled/professionally staked by someone looking to invest in your action.

5. Craps Systems Will Not Help You Clear the Bonus Requirements

This whole website is about craps systems. So it wouldn’t shock me if you were reading this and thinking to yourself, I got just the system to clear these bonus terms quickly.

Excuse me for a moment while I laugh to myself.

Seriously, though, craps system don’t work. I’ve already explained that. So they won’t help you clear your bonus any faster either.

However, what I will say is that if you do use a system and go on a hot streak, milk it for all it’s worth. Earn money and clear your bonus faster. Especially since you’ll probably have to wager more money to do it anyway.

6. Cheating at Craps Will Though

If you want to earn promotions faster through craps you’ll have better luck cheating than you will using a craps system.

However, you won’t be able to cheat online unless you’re a super user or have some sort of inside connection.

The only way you can cheat and try to earn promotions faster is to play live and earn comp points that you can use for buffets, free shows and hotel rooms. I wouldn’t recommend it, though, considering that the consequences of being caught playing with loaded dice or trying to past post will be a cost much higher than paying for whatever it was you wanted in the first place.
