No Deposit Codes for Players from the Netherlands

Introduction

The Netherlands offers a thriving online gambling environment for players because of the country's nascent but strong regulatory framework, good competition among providers, and the overwhelming enthusiasm of its citizens in playing real money gambling games online. To play, you only need to find a list of operators licensed by regulator de Kansspelautoriteit (KSA). After that, all you have to do is register and deposit money to start playing with a reliable operator who follows all the guidelines that the regulator has set forth. There is nothing more straightforward.

Playing with a bonus can be a bit more complicated as the regulator continues to fine-tune rules and regulations regarding deposit incentives and other enticements to play, such as when KSA banned cash-back bonuses. Authorities believe that offering cash back based on losses can encourage risky betting behavior.

Restrictions like that, and the cap on welcome bonuses along with other factors like the operator's ability to afford to offer sometimes costly incentives means that the very best available bonuses might not be found at locally licensed casinos. Out-of-country and offshore regulators are less stringent in their bonus rules, not to mention the fact the operators don't give up roughly 30% of their revenues to the government as KSA-licensed operators do.

If you seek bonuses or simply seek novelty outside the confines of Holland's regulatory system, you need to know what to expect. We'll look at one particular type of bonus in the article - one that lets you play with the operator's funds for a chance to win real money and do that without putting any of your own funds at risk. The vehicle we'll explore is simply called a no deposit bonus (NDB).

There are several ways the gambling houses approach this marketing tool, but in essence, they all boil down to the same thing - funds you play through on selected games within certain bet limits a minimum number of times and then cash out if you have enough funds left to meet the minimum threshold for a withdrawal. There are nuances and details to explore, but that is the essence of a no deposit bonus.

Offshore-licensed operators may offer you incentives to play, whether you are a returning player who has been away for some time or a new player. They do this to encourage you to join the site in the hopes of keeping you on as a customer. In the long run, the house always has an advantage so the more players they can recruit - even if it costs them a little to sign you up - the more money they will make in the long run.

All bonuses have terms and conditions; operators can’t just dish out money to every player who comes along in the hopes that they will return and risk their own money. The basic bonus terms are always included in the listing, but other terms could mean the difference between an enjoyable romp with the casino's money and the potential disappointment of believing you have won something when, in fact, you may have violated the simple contract that allows you to cash out for your efforts and luck.

Before we enter a listing into our database for Dutch players, we break down all of the elements you will need to be aware of and make them accessible with a glance or by hovering over the offer. We let you know the casino that is inviting you to play, and what the bonus is whether bonus funds or casino spins, we provide a code you can click to copy then visit the site to redeem, and a way to simply click and redeem the code through our link.

You'll also see the lowest wagering requirement needed to cash out, when the bonus expires, and the most you will be able to cash out if you are successful in meeting all the other requirements.

You can vote on the offer with a thumbs up or thumbs down and see how others have voted, and you can share the bonus via social media. There's also a comment section that is usually populated with additional terms or notes of special interest.

Unfortunately for players in the Netherlands, the government hasn't followed the UK model wherein robust player protections are afforded to players at state-sanctioned sites but consumers are also free to play anywhere they want to as long as they are willing to forfeit those protections.

Great Britain has found that a truly free market with plenty of choices for consumers eventually results in more players 'staying home' and feeding the local government coffers without the need to block websites, payment gateways, and other avenues of freedom. Nonetheless, Dutch players still have plenty of choices even if they might have to get creative to exercise some of them and many are driven to less than-desirable operators in the process of finding a place to play that offers what they want.

One way that you can play a few slots without risking your funds at an online casino is to claim no deposit bonuses through the codes we provide here.

The codes are all keyed into our user-friendly and accessible database which is prefiltered for players in Holland. You can finetune the display by filtering and sorting the offers to your wants and needs. Look for high maximum cashouts, and low minimum wagering requirements after choosing a gaming provider on the "software" dropdown menu if you have a favorite.

You can sort by the latest offers, the oldest, the expiry date, or the biggest bonuses. From there you can see the offers on each listing and choose the one you like best.

If you aren't familiar with the casino you can read a review headlined by data that can tell you a lot about the operation. You'll also see our rating and ratings from several other trusted portals - some of the ratings are solely driven by player votes. You can also give the gaming house your vote of one to five stars.

Among the top-line data you can peruse before choosing to read the review is the licensing Jurisdiction, Minimum Deposit, Minimum Withdrawal, Cashout Time, KYC time, Pending time, Weekly Cashout Limits, and whether or not a downloadable version of the gambling venue is available.

The listings are updated often; when new gaming sites open, when trustworthy operators launch new promotions, or when we negotiate an exclusive bonus offer for readers in the Netherlands.

Finding the Best NDB

When you browse the list of no deposit bonus codes you will notice that it has already been pre-filtered for players in your region. If you visit while using a VPN or other IP masking device you may need to adjust the filters by choosing "Netherlands" from the dropdown "Country" menu item.

If you'd like to know more about NDBs and what it takes to claim one, complete the terms, and cash out your winnings, please read on and we'll explore them more deeply with a focus on common rules you will need to follow and ways to learn about any special rules.

Please recall that each listing 'card' with be stuffed full of pertinent information in a format that makes it easy to digest and understand. After looking over a few offers your eyes will naturally navigate to the information you are most interested in. Then you can reject many out of hand and explore the ones that are most interesting to you with confidence that you are on the hunt and about to score the best possible bonus for you.

When an offer piques your interest and you want to know more about the casino inviting you, click through to read the review. Is it a highly-rated gaming house? Can you accept payment via the available withdrawal options? Would you prefer to play an offer from a casino that offers a download client? These and more questions can be answered without even delving into the text of the review.

Alternatively, you can simply click the "Claim" button to visit the site. In most cases it is a good idea to click on the NDB code before you visit to be sure you get the NDB offer, otherwise, a landing page might offer another exclusive bonus or you might be directed to the main site and would have to sort through the promotions page for any NDBs. Many of our codes are exclusively for our readers. 

Netherlands No Deposit Casino Bonuses

When you view the list of Netherlands No Deposit Bonus Codes you will see the best offers at or near the top of the list. Conversely, the least valuable offers or those from casinos with lower ratings will be found at or near the bottom.

The monetary value of any particular offer is not the only data that drives placement on the list. Our more thorough examination of an operator's integrity, the ease of completing an offer, the relative worth of a specific bonus relative to how simple it might be to clear, and some other factors can go into our ranking of an offer on the list as well.

To be eligible for a no deposit bonus, you won't need to make any deposits. You will, nevertheless, need to create an account. If you win, the operator may need a small verification deposit from you to initiate the document verification procedure. If this is the case, they will require the deposit to be made using the same payment method that you plan to have your winnings sent to.

Most of the offers available nowadays are strictly for slots play but some might allow you to play keno or scratch cards with the same wagering requirements. You aren’t likely to find any NDBs that allow play on roulette or baccarat but some will let you clear wagering by playing blackjack or video poker. These are rare but they do exist. Practical wagering requirements will be higher for low-volatility games with a low house edge.

Types of No Deposit Bonus

For the most part, the two types of offers you will find here are free chips "bonus funds" and free spins (slot spins you can create a bonus funds balance from). There are other ways for an operator to allow play with "their money" with a chance to cash out but they inevitably boil down to bonus funds in the final analysis - and that is the bonus money that must be rolled over a certain amount of times before you can cash out any winnings.

A set number of spins at a predetermined value will net some winning spins and some flat or dead spins. When the allotted number of spins is completed, the resultant balance will be your bonus funds.

A freeroll tournament, whether slots, blackjack, or another game may award top-tier winners with bonus funds or a free chip worth a certain value. That, then, will be your bonus balance that you will use to meet the wagering requirements.

Cashouts from any bonus, whether it requires a deposit or not will be subject to terms and conditions.

Terms and Conditions

In order to successfully complete a no deposit bonus offer you will need to abide by the terms and conditions without fail. Most of the information you need, at least to choose an offer is found on the listing 'card'. However, other important elements such as restricted games, game weightings (how much each bet on certain games counts toward wagering), and other things such as whether or not a verification deposit is required will only be found on the casino's pages.

There will be general terms and conditions that could tell you the minimum withdrawal amount, and bonus terms and conditions which might tell you that restricted games remain restricted even after the wagering requirement has been completed.

Restricted Games

You won't have to worry about restricted games during the first stage of play if your selected NDB is for bonus spins. You will probably only be able to play one slot machine that the operator has selected for the promotion. The majority bonus terms turn slot winnings into bonus funds and that balance will be subject to additional terms and conditions.

At that point, you will be in the same situation as you would have been had you accepted a bonus chip. You will now have more options, which means more chances to err and violate one of the terms by playing a restricted or forbidden game, betting too much per spin, or something else. If only slots are allowed, by all means, don’t play any other type of game.

Allowed Games, Max Bet, and Bonus Duration

Some offers may allow you to play keno or scratch cards in addition to slots. Rarely, you might be able to play video poker or blackjack. No matter which games are allowed there will be a maximum bet threshold that shouldn’t be exceeded, even for a single bet. Violating this term will render the bonus null and void.

The bonus will also have an expiry date or a certain period wherein you must complete wagering. Before choosing to play any games with lower weightings, which would increase the practical wagering requirements, consider whether you will have the time to complete the offer. Some offers are only valid for 24 hours, others must be completed in several days, a week, or even a month. However, all bonuses have a specified period of time in which to complete the terms.

Wagering Requirements and Game Weighting

To “earn” your winnings from NDB you will have to expose the initial bonus amount to the house advantage a certain number of times. 20x, 30x, or even 40 times playthrough can be achieved over the course of several bonuses or at any time with the right luck but offers that require 50x or more as the base wagering requirement (WR) are likely to end up being an investment in time with only the gameplay itself as a return. However, it is up to you whether you want to attempt one with high wagering. Perhaps the max cashout is high, or maybe you have to complete the NDB to claim another more lucrative deposit bonus later. Each offer should be assessed individually.

It’s good to note that the WR can only go down, it can never increase. Fifty €1 spins on a slot will return something or nothing for each spin and those wins go back into your bonus bankroll to be rolled over again. Doing Fifty €1 spins on a slot will reduce wagering by €50. If the offer is €50 at 20x WR (€50 x 20 = €1000), the remaining WR would then be €950 and you may have more or less than the initial €50 bankroll to roll over again until you have risked fifty euros twenty times and cleared the bonus.

If games other than slots are allowed they probably won’t count 100% towards wagering. If the game is blackjack and the weighting is 10%, only €0.10 of every dollar bet will reduce the wagering requirement. Another way to look at it, more practically, is that blackjack will increase the wagering ten-fold, so a €1000 slot WR becomes a €10,000 blackjack WR.

Withdrawal Limit

Just as an online casino cannot simply dish out money to every player who asks to play, they also can’t allow you to win as much as you can from an offer and remain in business. Limitless NDBs are never awarded to new players but high rollers and other valued, loyal customers might find such offers.

There will likely be a minimum withdrawal limit and a maximum withdrawal limit. The minimum will usually be the site’s regular minimum but it could be different for NBDs. Some offers allow a single point of €100 - no more and no less. If your balance is lower than that the terms are not complete and you will forfeit the bonus. If your balance is higher, anything over the maximum will be removed from your account. Each operator handles that step differently so try to keep track of wagering and bet carefully as you approach the point of clearing the bonus.

Conclusion

Players in the Netherlands have an opportunity with our no deposit bonus codes to explore new platforms and new games and make a some cash without risking funds.

Experienced players will have an easier time of it since they may already be familiar with online gambling and especially bonus terms and conditions. However, the entire process from claiming a code to receiving a payout can be a great training ground for new players who may not be ready to risk their own funds to learn the ins and outs of playing real money games online with a bonus.

On the other hand, many of the offers are not designed to be extremely lucrative and all of them have a max cash-out threshold. While you won't need to risk funds you would need to invest time in order to profit from one of these offers. It's highly unlikely that every offer you accept or even the majority of them will result in a payout.

The best approach is perhaps to play for fun with the added benefit of a potential payout. Gambling is supposed to be fun so the player who can manage their expectations carefully is more apt to be satisfied with the endeavor, win or lose.

Dutch players who take advantage of the filtering and sorting power of our Netherlands No Deposit Bonus Code database can craft results and essentially curate their own offers that they are free to accept or reject. Our ranking system along with the ratings you see when you click through to a review can help you choose the best online gambling venues that offer the best bonuses with the best chances of a successful cashout.
