RTG (RealTime Gaming) Casinos

Overview:
RTG is one of the oldest & most well established online casino softwares. Popular with players for it's ease of use and very fast game play - initially just with their table games, but now with their slots too.

Best things about them:
Huge selection of games (about 300) - especially slots. Clear bonus 'token' system. WR counter.

Things to watch out for:
Some RTG's ask for quite a lot of security ID when you want to make your first cash-out (e.g. they may ask for scans of your ID card, Drivers License or Passport) - check Banking T&C's before you deposit, or contact support to check.
Many RTGs offer bonuses which are Phantom; This means when you have completed the wagering required for the bonus & want to cash-out your winnings, they remove the bonus value from your account.  Phantom bonuses can be good with certain betting strategies (see below), but if you just want to play without having to jump through hoops it's best to not take them.

Warning!
The casinos listed on this site are 100% safe to play at, but undoubtedly the worst thing about RTG software is the huge number of rogue casino operators; Typically they offer HUGE bonuses with wagering requirements which are very difficult to meet, and if you do make it they will use any excuse you can think of to delay or even cancel your cash-out. Do your homework, don't play with fire!

Banking:
Getting money into & out of online casinos is still somewhat problematical for American players. Always research your deposit and particularly your withdrawal options BEFORE you start playing at any casino.   Typically, for the RTGs listed here:
Deposits; QuickTender/UseMyWallet, eWalletXpress/900Pay, Pre-Paid cards, some Credit Cards, Bank Wire, eCheck
Cashouts; QuickTender/UseMyWallet, Bank Wire, Check

Bonuses:
Always read & fully understand any bonus T&C's before you claim the bonus!  Watch out in particular for games which don't count towards your Wagering Requirement, and more importantly, prohibited games which you MUST NOT play while using a bonus.
Cashable Bonuses: These bonuses are yours to keep; once you complete the Wagering Requirements (WR) you can cash-out everything in your casino account. These are the best sort for low-rollers as they improve your chances of making a profit.
Phntom Bonuses: These are usually a much bigger % than the cashable type, but when you've completed the WR, the value of the bonus is taken out of your account when you cash-out. These bonuses are best for high-rollers who like to place big bets without depositing big, advantage players, and players who just want more playtime for their deposit in the hope they hit a biggie!

Player Support:
Most RTGs offer E-mails and Toll-Free telephone suport as a minimum.  Of the casinos listed below, Live Chat is also available for Aladin's Gold, Lucky Red, Gande Vegas, and Vegas Casino Online.
