Red Casino

Not to be confused with 32Red Casino, Red Casino is a UK- and Malta-registered online casino operated by Jupiter Gaming Ltd. It has a plain layout that forgoes the sliders and pop-out menus seen on many online casinos in favour of thumbnail-laden screens that showcase the site’s many games. It’s simple, but simple can often be good. Sometimes, you just need a casino that will host your favourite games and give you a bonus or two. So, is Red Casino that site, or should you be giving this one a miss?

Welcome Bonus

There are two welcome bonuses at Red Casino. The first one is a No Deposit Welcome Bonus. There are 5 Free Spins on Fire Joker. The Free Spins come with a 10x wagering requirement and a maximum conversion of £30. The second part of the offer requires you to make a deposit, this is what you get:

 Deposit and wager £20 on The Goonies Quest for Treasure 2 to get 20 Free Spins on The Goonies Quest for Treasure 2.

• Wagering must be completed within 7 days of deposit

• 0x wagering on Free Spins winnings

• Free Spins must be used within 24 hours

Loyalty Bonuses

Red Casino doesn’t offer a lot of loyalty promotions. A good loyalty scheme and a few reload offers would certainly make things a lot more interesting, but there are some additional promotions. Most of these are network promotions--large-scale events that apply across multiple casinos and are hosted by developers like Pragmatic Play. Drops & Wins are a great example. These promotions have all kinds of jackpots and random cash prizes, with a current monthly prize pool of £2 million. There’s also something known as Daily Spin Frenzy. I’ve seen the same offer on a few different sites and haven’t been impressed with any of them. The maximum bonus is 50 free spins, but to get those spins, you must wager at least £1,000. Wager half of that amount for 25 free spins or stake £100 for 10 free spins. It’s hardly something worth getting excited about, but it’s available every day. Free is free, so if you are playing anyway, those spins will be a nice extra.

Slots and Table Games

Red Casino has a few hundred games spread across top developers like Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Games Global, Blueprint Gaming, Booming Games, Yggdrasil, and Spinomenal. It’s well stocked with popular features such as Amazing Links, Megaways, and Hold & Win. All games are mobile-friendly, but I’m not a big fan of the site’s layout. It’s a little generic and bland, and while there are some categories, they’re rather broad, and this makes it hard to find specific developers, features, or themes. It’s standard fare for the live casino as well, with most games coming from the Evolution catalogue, as well as a handful from Skywind. These games include live variations of table games and a selection of live game shows, such as Deal or No Deal Live, Funky Time, and Joker’s Wheel. As an instant-play mobile casino, you don’t need to download anything to play on desktop or mobile. Just access the site using your chosen platform, and you’re good to go. The mobile site looks a little better than the desktop one, but that could also use a refresh. It promises to add new live casino games and slots on a weekly basis, and judging by the number of new releases they have, it looks like they are following through with that promise.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Red Casino accepts PayPal, Skrill, MuchBetter, Trustly, Visa, Mastercard, Paysafecard, and bank transfers. The minimum deposit and withdrawal is just £10, but if you’re hoping to get a piece of the welcome bonus, you’ll need to increase that deposit to at least £20. This may change in the future as the site adjusts its terms and adds new bonuses, so make sure you always check the bonus terms and conditions. There are no fees for withdrawals, but you may have to wait a little while to get your funds. The withdrawal times are listed as being anywhere up to 4 days for most web wallets and 6 days for debit cards. You could get them within a day or 2, but you’ll likely be left waiting, and if you withdraw during a bank holiday or even over the weekend, you’ll need to wait longer.

Verdict: Red Casino Review

Red Casino is somewhat of a cookiecutter casino, one that takes tried-and-tested elements, adds a new name, logo, and colour scheme, and then throws everything together. This is best evidenced by the lack of a unique theme or brand story. The “About Us” page is a prime example of this. It’s standard, generic info, more of a CV than a brand story. You also have a telling section at the end that outlines the casino’s devotion to customer support and includes the phrase, “The [BRAND NAME] support team is available 7 24”. Ignoring the odd way of expressing “24/7”, it seems this was copy-pasted, and they forgot to add their casino name to the placeholder. Cookiecutter sites usually have the right elements, though, and that’s the case with Red Casino. The gaming selection is large and varied, there are plenty of payment options, and the bonuses are solid. It lacks the depth and uniqueness of Foxy Games and Wink Slots, but it’s still worth checking out. [publishpress_authors_box layout="ppma_boxes_9936" user_id="4"]
