Poker players have long loved the no deposit option from 888 Poker.  It’s a great way to get in some hands at a new poker room without having to risk their own money, and it makes the whole process of trying a different poker room all the easier.

That promotion, along with good software and well-regarded customer service, is no doubt one of the factors account for the success of 888 Poker.  Following the passage of the UIGEA in the United States, 888 exited that market but managed to nevertheless maintain their standing in the top ten of online poker rooms, a position they continue to hold today.

Customers of 888 will likely know that the brand extends far beyond poker; 888 also offers sports betting, casino games, bingo and a variety of other wagering products.  What customers and others unfamiliar with 888 may not know is that the site recently brought the no deposit offer over to another side of their business: 888 Games.

New players can now get £/€/$5 free when they sign up at 888 Games, the home for slots, table games like blackjack and roulette, video slots like Monopoly and scratch cards online.  The offer is limited to qualifying countries, so be sure to confirm at sign up that you’re from a country on the list (terms are available at 888).

Otherwise, the terms for the bonus are relatively simple.  You must be new to 888 Games, from a qualifying country and have to play through 30 times the bonus amount before you’re able to withdraw the bonus.  Play-through is a little more complicated; not all games count equally toward your wagering requirement.  For example, craps only counts at 5% of the amount actually wagered, while scratch cards contribute at 100% of actual wagers.
