History of Casinos

The history of online casinos started in the 1990s when the first casino sites came online. The first versions where no download-type software where you were very limited on the casino games you could play. The graphics were horrible, and the games did not pay well. Overall, it really wasn’t much fun, yet people still played, hoping they could win.

As time went on, new operators came online, and competition came into play where they wanted to provide better games than other casinos to win over the business. Graphics improved, and game selection increased a bit. Still, it wasn’t even close to what you would find in a local casino. Then some major players decided to get into the action. They set standards higher, added better games, and increased payouts so that players came back. They were looking at long-term investment and wanted to have standards like Vegas.

Of course, while it was good they did not add many new games for quite a few years, more operators started up, and they realized they had to beat out others, so how to do this? Well, they added progressives, but that wasn’t enough. They had to add more games in the casinos. Now we have the added every month to bring freshness and excitement to keep users active.

So what happened to the first online casino sites? Many of those closed down as they did cheat players, and eventually, it will catch up where others take over the business. If you never win, you leave, and that is exactly what happened. Trust is vital when people play online, and since many places didn’t prioritize, they died off.

Now we have mainly just decent places to play at. Ones that you can actually win at. Of course, the industry is still changing, and many countries are requiring licenses to accept players from their regions. Licenses mean more accountability and more trust. I imagine in the future. You will not see an unlicensed casino. They will either go out of business or get a license to continue operating.
