It has been a very interesting busy transfer window this summer and now with the start of the English Premier football season, it is time to dust off the good old PC and start thinking about placing a few bets on the Reds. What’s that you say? you don’t have a PC, you have your Mac mini! You love your mini because you can stream all your favorite teams’ games to your TV. Well don’t worry you can still get online and place a little (or big) wager with your trusty little Mac mini

There was once a time when online casinos clearly focused on PC users when designing their sites and applications (apps). However, since Apple shows a steady and growing market share, Mac users are not being forgotten any longer and there’s now an increasing number of betting platforms and online casinos available for Mac.

One of the easiest ways to enjoy making a few football bets with your Mac is through your internet browser.  In 2018 any reputable online casino or sportsbook has a website that you can access. Your favorite site may not have a downloadable app for your Mac (this number is diminishing at an ever-growing rate) but you can easily use their browser-based interface with your Safari web-browser.

Simply navigate to your desired site, log in (or create an account if you are new to the site) through the browsers login button and place your bets. The benefits of using the browser-based casinos is that it saves space on your hard drive and is quicker to set up. The downside of the browser-based experience is that the design is a little more generic to cope with the multiple types of browsers and doesn’t necessarily give you the best graphics or audio performance.

If you are looking for that really great graphic/audio experience, then you should download the Mac software/app from your favourite site. The first place to look is at the casino’s website. They usually have a download section or button, where you will select Mac. If you can’t find the software/app at the casino’s website, you can also search in the Apple store. Once installed your computer may ask you to update Flash or Java to run, but that usually doesn’t take more than a minute and a click, and then you’re up and wagering.

Remember, you are going to find quite a few online casinos that have software that will work with your Mac, but choosing a bookmaker should be more than just finding one that runs properly on your OS. Things that may influence your choices are:

  • Interface – Do you like the way the graphics look? Is it easy to move around and select different wagers?
  • Wagers- Do they offer the type of bets you are looking for? Do they allow in-game play? Can you parlay or do prop bets?
  • Bonuses – Do they have daily bonuses? How big of a sign-up bonus is there?

If you are using a Mac you probably have an iPhone as well. If your online casino is Mac compatible it will probably have software/apps developed for the whole suite of Apple products. This flexibility to go mobile will greatly enhance your ability to keep tabs on your bets or if you’re an in-game gambler to make wagers wherever you are at any time.

One more thing to think about before downloading the online casinos software or app is how many online casinos are you going to gamble with. It is not uncommon for gamblers, particularly in-game gamblers, to be using several online casinos at the same time. These gamblers need to think about things like storage space and memory usage on their devices. It may be best that these types of gamblers simply use the web-browser type interface for maximum performance on their device.

After reading all of this you might feel a bit overwhelmed with all the things you should be thinking about if you want to use your little Mac mini. But don’t worry like mentioned earlier most big reputable online casinos see the value in Mac users and are constantly developing improved software and updates for your Mac and Apple devices.

Some of the sites that we recommend are 888 casino, Winner Casino, Mr. Green…
