Slots Baby

I have it on very good authority (Google) that disco died in the summer of 1979. It was also the year that Pink Floyd released The Wall, The Clash gave us London Calling, and Sony launched the Walkman, so it was a pretty great year on the whole for music. But Slots Baby didn’t get the memo. This is a disco-inspired online casino that takes this affront to music and good taste and turns it into a casino. It’s a tie-dye, psychedelic aesthetic sporting flares and calling everything “groovy”. Thankfully, it stops short of having its own soundtrack, otherwise, I’m not sure I could have made it through this review with my sanity and hearing intact. Owned and operated by Jumpman Gaming, Slots Baby has all the hallmarks of this popular brand, including a great selection of games and loyalty bonuses. But Jumpman slot sites are far from perfect, and Slots Baby is no exception to that rule. My disco rant might be over, but there are some more issues around the corner.

Promotions and Welcome Offers

I have had issues with Jumpman Gaming bonuses in the past and many of these revolve around the terms fixed to the Welcome Bonus. There are similar issues with the Slots Baby Welcome Bonus, which has a fairly low max conversion and a high wagering requirement, but there are more pros than cons here. After making a deposit of £10, spinning the Mega Reel, and winning up to 500 Free Spins, you can start completing challenges in the Slots Baby Loyalty Program. There are 100s of challenges to complete and trophies to collect, and you’ll get prizes every time you progress to the next level of this program. There are stacks of weekly and monthly bonuses, as well, and these are all available in addition to the Loyalty Program and the Welcome Bonus. At the time of writing, in fact, there are over a dozen different promotions, and as soon as one of these ends, it’s replaced by another one. If you have an account with Slots Baby, I recommend checking these promotions as soon as you have finished with your Welcome Bonus. See what’s available, opt-in to the bonuses that you can collect, and keep your eye out for new promotions.

Slots and Other Games

Many new online casinos have over 2,000 slots. I have even reviewed sites with more than 5,000. It’s a little excessive, but as long as the games are organised properly, more is definitely better. Slots Baby adopts a more streamlined approach and has around 500 games. It’s far from the biggest selection you will see and may actually be one of the smallest, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in quality and variety. These games are provided by developers like NetEnt, Scientific Games, Slingo, Blueprint Gaming, Play’N GO, and more. There are progressive jackpots, Megaways, Hold and Win, Cascading Reels, and Drop & Win. There is also a dedicated Live Casino and numerous virtual scratch cards and video poker titles. As if that wasn’t enough, Slots Baby has a bingo room with about a dozen games. These run around the clock and include jackpots in the thousands and even in the tens of thousands. You can play with just a few pence per ticket and in addition to the daily, weekly, and monthly draws, there are occasional seasonal games with even bigger jackpots. The bingo games you’ll find on many slot-heavy online casinos are usually very basic and work more like automated games of keno. But Slots Baby bingo rooms are proper community bingo games, not unlike the ones on top sites like Wink Bingo.

Depositing and Withdrawing

You can deposit as little as £10 on Slots Baby and you can use several payment methods to do this:

• Visa Debit
• MasterCard Debit
• Maestro
• PaysafeCard
• PayPal
• Pay By Mobile

With the exception of Pay By Mobile (which charges a £2.50 fee and adds all payments to your mobile phone contract) these methods are free…if you’re depositing. When it comes time to withdraw, you will be hit with a £2.50 fee for all methods and all payments. Whether you’re withdrawing £100 and losing 2.5% or withdrawing £10 and losing 25%, you’ll always pay that fee. It’s obviously a bigger issue for small-stakes players than it is for bigger spenders, but it’s always an issue and it really shouldn’t be there. It’s not like you’re getting a faster and more premium service, either. It takes up to 5 days for Slots Baby to process all payments, so you’re paying more and waiting longer just to get your cash.

Slots Baby Review Summary

There are silver linings to most of Slots Baby’s clouds. There are “only” 500 games, but it’s a range that includes the most popular options. The Welcome Bonus isn’t as great as it first seems, but there are stacks of loyalty bonus offers. The banking methods are the exception to this rule. Not only are they slow, but you also have to pay for the pleasure. It takes the shine off what could otherwise be a very enjoyable experience, and that’s why Slots Baby scores a middle-of-the-road 3/5. [publishpress_authors_box layout="ppma_boxes_9936" user_id="4"]
