BitCasino Review

BitCasino is one of the world’s only online casinos that centres around cryptocurrencies. Although the platform claims that it’s the first-ever bitcoin casino, this bold assertion has been disputed on many internet forums. It’s under the ownership of mBet Solutions NV, a company based out of Curaçao that has only one other online gambling platform for real money to its name, the Sportsbet.io Casino. This is a sportsbook and online casino in one, that’s quite popular with players. Not much else is known about the history of BitCasino, as there is no about page on its site, and there aren’t many BitCasino reviews online. All that’s available is that it has been thriving since 2014, as an ambitious and innovative project.

BitCasino has somewhat of a modern, minimalistic look to it. Its main page uses white and grey with orange buttons, and mainly violet images to add splashes of colour and contrast. A night mode switches the palette around. There’s one pull-out menu on the left side that features a sans serif font that’s a bit too small and drop-down menus for the game categories. All of it looks a bit undersized. The page resizes appropriately but the menu stays the same. Once the window gets too small, it disappears. However, the categories are still available in the site’s footer. The drop-down subcategories, while functional, do not visually separate enough from the parent ones. When you hover over one, a small orange dot signifies your presence and a number appears to the right that displays the number of games featured inside it. This is somewhat practical, but it’s not great UX. A new BitCasino re-design should be in the cards.

To register with the site, all players have to do is click the orange sign up button in the top right corner. This will take them to the rather simple registration page. There, they can choose one of seven methods. This site is unique in that it allows players to join by using their accounts on other services such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, Line, Apple, and Telegram. Imagine that, you can have a BitCasino Telegram account. Of course, there’s also the option of submitting the date of birth, along with a username, password, and email. After a player does so, the site performs an immediate BitCasino Login and players get up and running with their accounts.

It’s confusing at first, going through the payment methods at BitCasino. Casino reviews usually feature a brief rundown of all the popular e-wallets and credit cards on offer, but it seems that BitCasino has done away with these. You can still find names like Neteller and Visa in the site’s Help Section, although they are nowhere to be found in the cashier tab. And, when you’re there, you have to select the Japanese Yen to access methods that are not cryptocurrencies. There aren’t many, and those that are there aren’t very popular, but we’ll look past this as it has all the popular cryptos, and that’s what counts. All the options are available for both deposit and BitCasino withdrawal. Note that all the amounts below have been converted from Yen to Euro.

While other casinos that use cryptocurrencies are scaled-down platforms trying to harness the power of anonymity and free transactions this technology provides, BitCasino, is a site that competes directly with mainstream fiat platforms. This much is obvious by one look at their game lobby. There are tons of slots and table games to choose from, and besides all the classics such as Baccarat, Blackjack, and Roulette, players can find games such as casino poker variants, Sic Bo, Dragon Tiger, Casino War, and many more. In the live section, you’ll find many games at hand from providers such as Evolution Gaming, eBet, Super Spade Games, Bombay Club, and Asia Gaming. The live casino is super-rich, and the site also has a BitCasino Poker segment, as well as a Sportsbook. There are a lot of games to go through at BitCasino, a casino that emphasises its catalogue of gaming products. Players can even enjoy some Video Bingo here.

As with most traditional online casinos, one of the busiest sections of BitCasino is, of course, the slots section. Players can’t seem to resist a good slot, and lucky for them, BitCasino has more than enough excellent slots to go around. The casino is chock-full of everything from 5 reel slots to multipliers, so finding something suited to your playstyle should be easy. The site also features a nice selection of jackpot slots, including:

• Mega Moolah
• Mega Joker
• Divine Fortune
• Holmes and the Stolen Stones

For those wondering – is BitCasino legit? Well, it has a license issued by the Curaçao eGaming Commission, which is an organization that regulates many other online casinos. However, it has a reputation of being far laxer than other bodies, though it’s trying to step its standards. The site does feature the standard SSL encryption players can see on other sites, and it claims that the games have been tested by TST. This means that the RNGs have undergone compliance checks by Gaming Laboratories International. Cobalt protects the payments at the casino, and the platform found its way on the 2018 EGR shortlist in the category for innovation.

With BitCasino being a Bitcoin-centric online casino, some players may be thinking that the games it hosts aren’t up to par with other fiat currency equivalents. We’re glad to say that’s not the case. The BitCasino repertoire boasts nothing but quality, which players can see as soon as they launch the website. In the casino lobby, players can find slots from top providers such as:

• Red Tiger Gaming
• NetEnt
• Microgaming
• Quickspin
• Play’n GO
• Betsoft
• Blueprint Gaming

There’s a nice Help page on the site, that separates into eight categories, with 64 articles. If you don’t want to go through it, there’s a search bar at the top that links to the likeliest answer via a drop-down menu. Once you find a specific article, there’s a menu of the main help categories to your right and some related articles at the bottom. The help page displayed some weird behaviour when we used it, so we won’t shower it with praise in this BitCasino review. If you don’t want to go through this exploratory process, here are some ways you can get in touch with the support staff:

• Live Chat: available 24/7
• Email: support@BitCasino.io, cs@BitCasino.io
• Contact Form: https://BitCasino.io/help-center#contact

• Address: Pletterijweg Oost, Ara Hilltop Building, Curaçao
• Phone number: +5999 465 1134
• E-mail: complaints@curacao-egaming.com

There’s a little bit of everything on this platform, and while there are many positives, there are also a few things we cannot leave out. The selection of slots and live table games is terrific, as is the VIP Club. It’s tournaments galore, and there are dedicated areas for poker and virtual sports. The Help section appears outdated, and if you’re not into cryptocurrencies, the payment options are lacking.
