Yeah! This is definitely a marketing technique to keep the player in the game longer at a given casino. I agree, of course, that 5x is still a lot, but we should all take into account that many players, starting to play in an unknown casino, do not read the ToS at all, where these parameters for the deposit should be specified. However, I’m not sure that all casinos print such data clearly and clearly so that the player understands everything in advance. But it still has to be done in some way. Such a large coefficient of course irritates the player, the player becomes dissatisfied, swears and grumbles to himself, but is forced to continue playing.
This is actually what the casino itself needs. And this casino evaluates as marketing.
The average user, myself included, gets very bored reading entire ToS pages. In fact, reading the ToS page is the most important part before we register on a particular site, this is of course intended so that we never blame their terms of service which we have previously agreed to.
But however, there is always an not good feeling when one of casinos expect you to bet more than other casinos after you make a deposit so that you can safely withdraw your fund. Of course it's each individual's way of marketing, but a pleasant and convenient user experience should be considered instead of expecting them to bet more.
Yeah, of course, definitely any casino writes huge ToS pages in such a way that no one will read them. However, such giants of the IT industry, such as Google, also usually write multi-page documents guaranteeing their protection and their rightness in the event of legal disputes. Or, for example, Blockchain.com, also wrote a whole book about its wallet and exchange, although its very bad overall image goes along with this service. Well, of course, no one reads, and if they do, they don’t go into detail and interpret individual norms of these rules.
Sometimes it seems to me that the lawyers of various casinos and other mass Internet services in general specifically write these clauses in such a way that it would simply be impossible for a simple player or user of the service to understand everything and understand the nuances of their service.
