Bingo Paradise Rating

Betfred is a huge name in the British betting and gaming sector. I have covered different aspects of this brand in the past, noting how Betfred Bingo was excellent but for a limited bonus selection, while Betfred Casino was brilliant overall. So, where does that leave Betfred Games? It’s part of the same brand—another section you can access with a casino/bingo/sportsbook account—but is it worth your time, and if you haven’t joined yet, should you bother?

Welcome Bonus

At the time of my Betfred Bingo review, there was no welcome bonus. Thankfully, that’s not the case with Betfred Games. All new players can collect 100 free spins upon joining and staking £10 or more. You’ll get your spins within 48 hours.

It doesn’t sound like much, especially when you consider the requirement is to stake the money and not simply deposit it. But it sounds a lot better when you realise there is no wagering requirement. You get to keep whatever you win and can withdraw it as soon as you meet the minimum withdrawal requirement.

The spins have a value of £0.10 each and are limited to a choice of 6 games, including Ted and The Goonies, both of which use the Jackpot King progressive jackpot system.

Other promotions are available and you’ll see them pop up once you’ve joined. They include network promotions, such as Drops & Wins, as well as regular reload offers that give you free spins and bonus credits. You won’t find as many promotions here as there are elsewhere, but there’s enough to keep you interested.

Slots and Other Casino Games

I wasn’t expecting much from the games room on Betfred Games. Usually, small additions to major sites like this have only a few hundred games, as all of the others are dispersed across the rest of the website. That’s definitely not the case here, tough, as there are currently more than 1,500 games. Furthermore, these games are nicely ordered using a series of categories and they include some massively popular titles from fantastic developers.

You’ll find Megaways slots, progressive jackpot slots, themed slots, classic slots, and more. Some of the most popular titles include Fishin’ Frenzy, King Kong Cash, Deal or No Deal, Big Bass Bonanza, and Dark Waters Power Combo. You’ll also find the odd exclusive slot, which is always a welcome sight. These games include the retro-themed 777 Betfred, Betfred Gone Fishing, Betfred King Cash, and Betfred to the 9s.

If you scroll down to the bottom of the sidebar, you’ll see a link for “RTP List” click this for a full list of all Betfred Games slot machines, complete with their theoretical return to player averages. These are calculated over the course of millions of plays, so it’s not something you should pay much attention to. But if you’re not sure which game to play and need a little guidance, this is a good place to start.

You’re not going to find much in the way of live casino games, but that’s not what Betfred Games is all about. If you want to play live casino games, click either the “Live Casino” or “Casino” links at the top. These will direct you to other sections of the Betfred domain. You can use the same wallet to play and won’t need to jump through any additional hoops.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Betfred Games has a wide range of banking options, including debit cards, Skrill, and PayPal. I have always used the latter on Betfred sites and have never had an issue. There are no deposit or withdrawal fees, and you shouldn’t need to wait long to get your funds after cashing out. The terms do state that it could take several days for withdrawals to process though, so there’s no guarantee of instant payouts.

Verdict: Betfred Games Review

I have had very few issues with Betfred as a brand. In fact, I once left money in a sportsbook account (from a bet I had forgotten about), and they contacted me several months later to tell me before helping me to add a new payment method and withdraw.

They could have charged an account fee and steadily taken the money, as many casinos do this, and it seems that all of them include terms that allow them to do it. But they didn’t, and in combination with the fast withdrawals, the fantastic selection of games, the great progressive jackpot and Megaways offering, and the welcome bonus, it makes for a fantastic site. I can’t fault it, and that’s why Betfred Games gets full marks from me.
