How payment methods for online casinos has changed in the past decade
Financial operations have always been one of the key elements of the online and land based gaming industry, and in our current days, the two are driving innovation together.
If you have been an active player in the early 2000s, you must remember how depositing and withdrawing from an online casino or sportsbook has changed.
While there are now more effective and hassle free KYC processes when it comes to depositing, the withdraw process has been also made more user friendly.
I remember that back in 2014-2015, you had to wait around 48 hours to receive your withdraws from certain operators.
The impact of payment options on player onboarding, retention and safeguards has been heavily researched by payment providers and with the help of operators the process has been mind as seamless as possible.
Every player wants âto be paidâ as fast as possible when they play and win. And why not, we live in a time when everything is moving fast. Many studies have shown that it is one of the worst experiences when a player has to wait days to get their winnings payout to them.
This is why Same Day Payouts and Instant Withdrawals have been implemented in many online casinos.
Here comes the fun part of things, instant withdrawal through Bitcoin.
There is no doubt that Bitcoin is now here to stay and some online gaming operators have long been using the cryptocurrency as an asset in their operations to drive more players.
Bitcoin has revolutionized the way online casino players can make deposits and withdrawals at online casinos, as it was a bit of a hassle as many e-wallets and financial institutions didnât want to process payment coming from gambling sites because of legal reasons.
Cryptocurrencies has also become a game changer in the UK gambling sector. In 2020, the UK Gambling Commission has banned the use of credit cards by players as well as accepted by operators in the online gambling sector. This decision gave a boost for the use of cryptocurrencies by operator.
The use and integration of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in online gambling websites has vastly improved the process for operators and gaming experience for players. Thanks to their unique and user-friendly characteristics, cryptocurrency provide payment transactions that are better and even safer compared to credit cards.
Other than fast withdrawals, players get to appreciate the small fees required for every withdrawal transaction. Their cashouts then go straight to their designated wallet addresses, which also highlight anonymity and security.
Fintech companies have received a huge boost during the lockdowns and itâs safe to say that each region is now slowly beginning to have a favorite payment provider. Whenever we are talking about the USA, Europe or Asia.
Just as an example, Quickbit is very popular in Norway, thanks to their mission of making the use of cryptocurrency simple, fast and available to anyone.
Each Fintech company has contributed to a better future and it seems that we are just a couple of years from living in a cashless society.b

Nolimit City revisits the brutal factory life in Outsourced: Slash Game
Nolimit City takes you back to the grind with its latest release, Outsourced: Slash Game. For those who thought their consumerist cravings were a safe indulgence, think again. Following in the footsteps of Outsourced, this new addition pulls back the curtain on the sweat and sacrifice lurking behind those everyday luxuriesâthis time with a dash of danger. Outsourced: Slash Game is the studioâs second venture into crash-style gameplay, the first being xCrashâą in Skate or Die – but this time itâs a standalone crash game!
In Slash Game, players have to make some cutthroat decisions as a laser traces the outline of their hand, increasing the multiplier with every pass. Players hit âstopâ to cash out, locking in the multiplier when they feel the timing is right. After which, they will be shown the potential winnings if they wouldnât have stopped. But hereâs the catch: if players hesitate a second too long and the laser slips, all the winnings are lost. A live scoreboard displays the Top Win, Top Miss and Last Round, so that players can keep track of their previous rounds.
Outsourced: Slash Game is not a familiar Nolimit City slot to some players but could cause some excitement with an increasing multiplier and a maximum payout of 1,500x the base bet. Outsourced: Slash Game, unlike Nolimit Cityâs high-volatility slots, is rated as âMedium Volatilityâ but donât let that fool you as it still includes the risk of losing your hand.
Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “Get back to work, will you? Weâre bringing players back to the unrelenting factory floor of Outsourced with an all-new twist. Slash Game is a standalone take on our crash-style games, and itâs packed with plenty of heart-stopping moments (and maybe a few hand-stopping ones, too). Weâre thrilled with how it turned out and we hope that our fans will be too!â
âOutsourced: Slash Gameâ will be available to all Nolimit City partners on November 5th, 2024.

Set sail on a pirate quest with Belatraâs Tortuga Codex
Belatra Games, the specialist online slots developer, has launched its pirate-themed title, Tortuga Codex. This 5×4 slot casts players on a journey on the hunt for untold riches buried on a mysterious island.
A Skull symbol acts as the Wild and will substitute for any other symbol to increase the chances of a win. An intriguing element to the game lies in the Additional Reel feature which sits above the main frame. Itâs in sync with the main reels, displaying Wild symbols, special pirate icons, and numbers from one to nine. When three or more bomb Scatters come in, numbers on the Additional Reel become active multipliers in the bonus game. The more Scatters appear, the higher each multiplier value, amplifying the potential winnings.
In the main game, the Wild scatters a random number of Wild symbols onto the reels if there is a Scatter underneath it. When the Bonus Game is hit, the Wild symbol will be replaced by the number 9. Pirate Bob, Pirate Patrick and Pirate Girl symbols replace all minor symbols if there is a Scatter symbol underneath them. These symbols will be replaced by the numbers 8, 7 and 6 respectively.
The Treasure Chest symbol awards players with a random win ranging from 5 to 1000 bets if there is a Scatter symbol under it. This symbol is replaced by the number 5 when the Bonus game begins. A Coin gives the player a win of 10 bets on the game if there is a Scatter symbol underneath it – transforming into the number 4 for the Bonus. All numbers on the Additional Reel that fall out or appear in place of symbols will go into the Bonus Game when three or more Scatters appear on the reels. Hitting four Scatters will increase each number by one, landing five Scatters will increase each number by three – the maximum is nine.
Players trigger the Bonus Game with three or more bomb Scatters. Before it begins, the first and second cells open up on the Additional Reel at the top, then players must choose a chest that contains either a Plus, Multiplier, or a noose, which concludes the round. As players move down through the levels, the multipliers can increase depending on the chestâs bounty – the maximum is 59049x.
Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Gamesâ CCO, said:Â âTortuga Codex takes players deep into the perilous seas filled with hidden mysteries, legendary treasures, and ancient artefacts waiting to be uncovered on the reels. The Bonus feature gives players the perfect opportunity to chart a course to winnings.â
