Genesis Casino Review 2020
A well-known company to many casino fans, Genesis Global Limited, added Genesis Casino to the list of their brands in early 2018. Since safety comes first when we are dealing with relatively young casinos, we went on to check the licenses obtained by Genesis.
The good news for players across the globe is the site is licensed under the Malta Gaming Authority and the United Kingdom Gambling Commission. These two regulators are probably among the strongest in the niche and all players should feel completely safe keeping their action here.
Unfortunately, when a casino holds respective licenses under the two mentioned jurisdictions, it usually means the list of banned countries will be quite extensive. The players from the United States, Italy, Portugal, Argentina, Brazil, Denmark, and Spain (among others) are restricted from playing real-money games at Genesis Casino.
Bonus and VIP
People at Genesis Casino are obviously well aware of the importance of a strong promotional section. They advertise a lucrative welcome package up to $1000. It looks beyond impressive at first glance but comes with several strings attached in reality. Here is the breakdown of a four-step welcome package new registrants can claim at Genesis Casino:
- 1st Deposit – 100% bonus up to $100 + 300 free spins on Starburst
- 2nd Deposit – 50% bonus up to $300
- 3rd Deposit – 25% bonus up to $300
- 4th Deposit – 25% bonus up to $300
In reality, we can look at the welcome offer in the shape of the first deposit bonuses. Other promos are actually reloads and get you just 50% and 25% match. Either way, it is still better than nothing, and in theory, you do get up to $1,000 in bonuses on your maiden four deposits at the casino.
Bonus terms
The terms and conditions associated with the promotions require players to roll over the bonus amounts 40 times (industry-standard before being able to cash them out. The minimum deposit required for you to claim the bonuses is $10. It is important to use the above-written promo codes fro the second, third, and fourth deposits respectively.
The free spins are given in ten increments of 30 and are valid for three days. You can use them just on Starburst. The winnings from free spins can’t be higher than $100 and also need to be wagered 40 times before you can withdraw them.
The good news is you can wager the bonus by placing the bets on table games (10%) and blackjack (5%). Most slots contribute 100% towards the roll-over requirements, though.
The regular players, particularly those who are into table games, will be happy to have the opportunity to claim a 10% cashback bonus on Tuesdays. The maximum cashback amount is $200 and only your losses in the live-dealer department will count.
The range of other on-going extras is different from month to month. “Lightspeed Monday” is one of the casino’s standout promotions. If you deposit and wager at least $10 from Thursday to Sunday, you will receive a certain number (depending on the week) of free spins on Monday.
Bonus missions
There are also weekly bonus missions where you can claim additional reloads for deposits of $50 or more during the work week.
Interestingly, the site does not provide much detail on how to qualify for their VIP scheme. The VIP Galaxy does exist at Genesis, though, and promises the following benefits (among others):
- Exclusive Bonuses
- Dedicated Account Manager
- Monthly VIP Prize Draw
- Birthday Presents
- Holiday Package
- Flights to Las Vegas
Payment Options
Since the casino owns a dual license and is limited to countries where online gambling is not restricted, you can’t expect a massive array of payment methods. However, most of the well-known options are available at Genesis Casino. What we particularly liked is how transparent all the information regarding the payments is. You can easily check the minimum and maximum deposit and withdrawal amounts as well as the processing time for each transaction in particular. The deposits are processed instantly; the minimum is $10, while the maximum is capped at $5,000. As for withdrawals, if you request them through e-wallets (Skrill, Neteller, EcoPayz), you can expect them to go through right away, while other methods take up to five business days.
Here is the full list of deposit and withdrawal options available at Genesis Casino:
Method | Deposit | Withdrawal |
Visa/Mastercard | Yes | Yes |
EcoPayz | Yes | Yes |
Skrill | Yes | Yes |
Neteller | Yes | Yes |
Paysafecard | Yes | No |
Bank Transfer | No | Yes |
Software and Games
There is much to like about the site’s design. The layout is extremely easy to navigate even if you are a beginner. The full list of games can be accessed thanks to the cool navigation menu at the top-left corner of the site. The only drawback (if there can be any) is the absence of a dedicated video poker section since the site has this particular type of game in abundance.
The list of companies whose creations can be found at Genesis Casino is more than impressive. The top-tier developers like NetEnt, Microgaming, Play’N GO, Quickspin, and Evolution Gaming are all there. The diversity of games is thus guaranteed and we promise you won’t be disappointed with the massive array of gaming options at the casino.
Jackpot slots
Slot fans are indeed spoilt for choice in the sea of hundreds of titles at disposal. We’ll start off with progressive jackpots. Going from smaller individual machine prizes to heavyweights such as Mega Moolah, you’ll always be in for an opportunity to become a millionaire in this section.
Videoslots
Players can browse the slots department to find the new and the most popular games as well as must fall jackpots and video slots. We will leave it up to you to select the favorite titles but have to mention the all-time greats Starburst, Gonzo’s Quest, Rise of Maya, Big Bad Wolf, etc.
As mentioned above, the range of video poker options is huge. As a dedicated category of this sort of game does not exist, the best way to find them would be to type in the titles in the “Search” box. Some of the bountiful options involve Jacks or Better, Tens or Better, Deuces Wild, Deuces and Joker, and Bonus Poker.
Table games
While the rich slots library left a strong impression on us, what should we say for the table games department? There are plenty of blackjack and poker versions (roulette and baccarat are there as well) which actually came as no surprise knowing the impressive list of the software suppliers Genesis Casino are teamed up with.
To sum it all up, we’ll just say Evolution Gaming provide tables for this casino. It is enough to claim the place has the top-notch live-dealer action out there featuring the company’s exclusive variants.
Genesis Casino – Conclusion
Based on everything written above, we can say Genesis Casino well confounded our expectations. The site has it all and certainly belongs to crème de la crème of the niche. Whether you are into slots or table games/live-dealer action, Genesis will have you covered with the high-profile games of all kinds. When you add the extensive promotional section and a dual license, there is literally not a single reason for any casino games admirer not to possess an account here.
