888.com is offering bonuses galore in their current promotions as well as several monthly competitions so there is something to please everybody and if you are already an account holder you are earning points for the very special VIP club. For new players there is a welcome bonus of 100% of your initial deposit up to €100 but the difference between 888 and many competitors is that 25% of the bonus is awarded immediately to your account and you can start playing. To earn the other 75% you need to accumulate competition points equivalent to 4.5 times the 75% bonus amount which sounds very complicated but in effect you need to have staked around 30 times the  75% bonus amount which is in line with many other online casinos. Why 888.com have decided to make it so complicated we do not know but with 25% up front it is a good bonus. There are the usual restrictions about when you can cash out the bonus money and you have 30 days in which to meet the requirements for the bonus. If you deposit using Neteller there are special requirements so check the full terms and conditions. Also, low risk wagering such as roulette or blackjack does not count. As well as a signing up bonus there is a 10% bonus up to €60 available each month in what is termed “happy hour.” Happy hour occurs on the last day of each month between 19:00 and 21:00 GMT so it may sometimes be worth waiting to make a deposit.

888.com also have a good range of monthly events in which you can win cash. All events follow roughly the same principle that the person who accumulates the most competition points within the event timeframe wins the top prize followed be a number of minor prizes. There are too many to go into in this article but as a guide,:-
