Most Popular Bonuses in the Finnish iGaming Industry – Exploring Player Habits and Preferences in Finland
The Finnish iGaming industry has been thriving for years, and with the increasing popularity of online gambling, it shows no signs of slowing down. One of the reasons for this growth is the variety of bonuses and promotions offered by online casinos, including non-sticky bonuses and free spins. In this article, we’ll explore what these bonuses are and how they work, as well as discuss some significant player habits and preferences in Finland.
Finland has a long history of gambling, and the country’s residents are known for their love of games of chance. In fact, it’s estimated that around 80% of Finnish adults participate in some form of gambling, whether that’s playing the lottery, visiting a casino, or betting on sports. Online gambling is also becoming increasingly popular, with more and more Finnish players turning to online casinos to satisfy their gambling needs.
Most Popular Bonuses in Finland
When it comes to the most popular types of bonuses in Finland, non-sticky bonuses and free spins are definitely among the top choices.
Non-sticky bonuses are a type of casino bonus that allows players to withdraw their winnings immediately without having to meet any wagering requirements. In other words, if you win using a non-sticky bonus, you can cash out your winnings without having to wager a certain amount first. This type of bonus is becoming increasingly popular among Finnish players who want to take advantage of the best bonuses without being tied down by wagering requirements.
Free spins are often offered as part of a welcome bonus, and players can use them to play slot games without having to use their own money. Free spins can also be offered as part of ongoing promotions or as a reward for loyal players. In most cases, winnings from free spins will have to be wagered a certain number of times before they can be withdrawn, this being the main difference between traditional and non-sticky bonuses.
Other popular types of bonuses in Finland include deposit bonuses, where players receive a bonus based on the amount they deposit, and no deposit bonuses, which are given to players just for signing up. Loyalty programs are also popular, as they allow players to earn rewards and bonuses for playing regularly.
Player Preferences in Finland
Finnish players tend to be drawn to casinos that offer a wide range of games and generous bonuses. They also value safety and security, and are more likely to choose casinos that are licensed and regulated by reputable authorities. Finnish players are also increasingly interested in mobile gaming, as they enjoy being able to play their favourite games on the go.
By understanding these preferences and offering the right types of bonuses, online casinos can attract more Finnish players and continue to thrive in this growing market.
Most Popular Casinos in Finland
When it comes to the best casinos in Finland, there are several options to choose from. One of the most popular is Casumo, which is known for its generous bonuses and wide selection of games. Casumo offers both non-sticky bonuses and free spins, making it an attractive choice for players who want to maximize their chances of winning. The casino also has a user-friendly interface and excellent customer support, making it a top choice for Finnish players.
Another popular casino in Finland is Rizk, which is known for its innovative approach to online gambling. The casino offers a unique rewards program where players can spin a wheel to earn bonuses, free spins, and other rewards. Rizk also offers a range of games from some of the top software providers in the industry, making it a great choice for players who want a diverse selection of games.
Finally, there’s LeoVegas, which has won numerous awards for its mobile casino platform. The casino offers a wide range of games, including slots, table games, and live dealer games, and has a generous welcome bonus for new players. LeoVegas also offers a loyalty program where players can earn points that can be redeemed for bonuses and other rewards.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Finnish iGaming industry is thriving thanks to the variety of bonuses and promotions offered by online casinos. Non-sticky bonuses and free spins are becoming increasingly popular among Finnish players who want to take advantage of the best bonuses without being tied down by wagering requirements.

It has been quite the run for NaVi despite their loss with back to back grand finals in recent weeks but CSDB.gg’s predictive model suggests there will be no let up for the Ukrainian esports organisation.
G2 will also be looking to build more momentum in preparation for Majors season with NiKo on a quest to finally get over the line this year to win his first major title. Hopefully Rio won’t have to see a repeat of his reaction in the semifinals at BLAST Premier Fall Final 2024 where he punched a hole in a table after losing out to Team Vitality in a key moment.
However, the hosts of Intel Extreme Masters Rio 2024 may want to lockdown any nearby furniture and reinforce their desks if G2 are set for disappointment at the semifinals stage as predicted by the CSDB.gg SuperComputer.
A victory in Rio could be even more consequential for how the end of the year shapes up for the leading teams on the circuit. The Valve Global rankings have both teams close at the very top (NaVi at 1988 and G2 at 1953) meaning a win for either team could hand them a key advantage when it comes to who enters the Majors as top seed.
Back-to-back wins in T1 events for G2, should they prosper in Rio, would set the Berlin-based team on an incredible trajectory going into the winter months.
Meanwhile, Brazilian hopes for glory look slight according to the CSDB.gg SuperComputer with FURIA, the team co-owned by Neymar, having only been given a 20.9% chance of even making the playoffs.
They are the leading contenders to make an impact for the home crowd but there are other teams flying the flag for Brazil with paiN and Imperial also set to give it their best to give local fans something to cheer on.
In terms of forecasted matchups of note, G2 and FaZe Clan could offer up a fascinating encounter in the quarterfinals should both teams qualify, with each organisation rated as having a strong chance of making the semis with little to separate them should they meet.
How was the CSDB.gg CS2 Tournament SuperComputer created?
The CSDB.gg CS2 Tournament SuperComputer is a predictive model created using world ranking points, team quality ratings and performance trends. An element of randomness is also included in the model to avoid the best teams and players always winning, to reflect the fact that upsets can happen.
Every tournament is simulated 1,000 times with the results aggregated into a percentage rating of the chances teams or players have to achieve the predicted result.

NASCAR launches persistent world on Roblox where players can become racing tycoons
NASCAR is once again taking the virtual racing world by storm, this time with the launch of “NASCAR Tycoon” on Roblox created by Dubit.
Building on the success of its previous “NASCAR Speed Hub,” this new experience promises to deliver an even more immersive and interactive NASCAR world.
Developed in partnership with the renowned metaverse studio Dubit, “NASCAR Tycoon” allows players to dive deep into the management and racing aspects of NASCAR, offering a unique blend of strategy and high-speed thrills in a distinctly Roblox-native way.
Players will have the opportunity to jump in the driver’s seat of cars styled after NASCAR’s Next Gen Cup Series vehicles, competing against each other and managing teams in thrilling races. Earning fame and fortune as they build their virtual tycoon, players can make passive income while they play. As players progress in “NASCAR Tycoon,” they will unlock exclusive perks such as building their own NASCAR racing teams, expanding their garages, collecting new cars, accessing customizations and attracting sponsors.
The launch comes hot on the heels of recent Fortnite activations and follows the debut of NASCAR in Jailbreak and NASCAR Speed Hub last year – a virtual environment built by Dubit, for players to race around tracks linked to real-world races.
“We’re thrilled to launch ‘NASCAR Tycoon’ on Roblox, developed in partnership with Dubit, marking a key milestone in our ongoing efforts to authentically engage with the Roblox community,” said Nick Rend, VP of Interactive and Emerging Platforms at NASCAR. “This initiative is about more than reaching new audiences; it’s about deepening our connection on a platform where we see tremendous potential. By blending the excitement of NASCAR with the interactive and dynamic environment of Roblox, we’re enhancing traditional fandom in ways that are engaging, fun, and distinctly forward-looking.”
With over 300 million monthly active users, Roblox is ripe with opportunities for sporting organisations like NASCAR and offers a chance to engage with audiences in an immersive and interactive environment.
Andrew Douthwaite, Chief Commercial Officer at Dubit, shares his excitement: “We’re thrilled to bring the next phase of NASCAR to life on Roblox, building on the success of previous activations. NASCAR Tycoon allows Roblox players to experience the excitement of NASCAR racing like never before, blending the strategic elements of team management with the adrenaline-pumping action on the track. It has been a true joy working with such a forward-thinking, iconic sports brand in NASCAR, and we look forward to continuing to push the boundaries together”
Dubit has created Roblox activations, virtual merchandise ranges and experiences for global brands including Unilever, Samsung, Reckitt, Kraft, H&M and adidas.
“NASCAR Tycoon” is now available on Roblox.
