This is true, there is no problem if these streamers will have a disclosure that they're promoting a casino and the kids or whoever is in not at the right age shouldn't patronize and gamble. It's only for the adults that have jobs and can sustain their gambling enjoyment. Otherwise, it's not for all the audiences of the streamers that are doing their thing and livelihood through that craft they have. There are many responsible and as well as irresponsible viewers that the streamers can't control but the same goes to them when they don't tell a lot of facts about the casino that they promote.
Most of the time, they'll be given some demo account and it's going to have a lot of money on it and letting the fans think that they've got a lot of money deposited in there. But little did they know, it's not what they think. All of the money that are into that account of streamers are actually activated by the casino themselves and they're just demos so that they can show it to their viewers on what kind of gamblers they are. Another twist is this, the chance of winning of those streamers account are very much high compared to the accounts of the customers that will try to sign up under them. It's just so crazy and the marketing level is on a different level with that because they want to take advantage of those streamers that has a wide engagement.
Streamers are delicate. They must entertain and pay the bills, which is difficult. Flashy demo accounts with cash? The picture is deceiving, right? These accounts are rigged to lure you in. Smart marketing, but dishonest.
I agree, they're not to blame here as that's how they do it with their livelihood but with sort of deception with how they market a casino. That's how many have been hooked thinking that those cash they're winning are for real and could also happen to them. It's really a marketing strategy that many don't realize it and they're biting that way of marketing so they think that the chances that these streamers are getting are also going to come to them.
Not all streamers are to blame. Lack of upfront disclosure is the issue. Simply saying "Hey everyone, I'm getting paid to promote this" is enough. Knowing the score, adults could choose. We need true transparency with kids. They must realize that what they see isn't everything. Education and protecting the vulnerable
I have seen a lot of them that are disclosing that they're sponsored by a casino and always get to the point at the end to gamble responsibly and moderately. So, with that, they know that everyone that should gamble because they've promoted the casino needs to be responsible as well and they never lack of reminders to them. Yes, they earn money from these promotions but not all of them are having that sense of responsibility for the fans that they're going to drag into the casino and deposit and becomes addicted later on. They don't think of that much because many of them think about the affiliate and commission that they're going to get from them later on.
