888 Casino Review Jump to comments

888 Casino is one of the online originals and a giant today. The site launched as Casino-on-Net in 1997, using Random Logic software. In 2007 a new platform name came to be in Dragonfish. During the summer of 2018, they re-launched on a new proprietary platform with a new mobile-first website, and website application.

The Dragonfish B2B and B2C system has more than 260 gambling domain names registered with The Gambling Commission of the United Kingdom (UKGC); 86 Inactive domains, and 37 white labels - all under the 888 trade name and license of 888 UK Limited.

888casino [888 Holdings PLC (LSE:888)] also holds licenses from regulators in Gibraltar, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Ireland, Romania, Nevada (poker), New Jersey and Delaware (lottery platform for all online casinos plus poker).

The gaming site was available to most players in the US prior to the UIGEA of 2006 when nearly all publically traded companies pulled out of the US market. Now, only those located inside certain state borders can log in to play.

What sets 888 apart?
The 888 experience is truly interactive

Depending upon your location (the software knows!) you may be able to access:

  • 888casino
  • 888poker
  • 888sport
  • 888ladies
  • Wink Bingo... all from 888.com

Our main focus will be on the casino here, which includes random number generator and live dealer games. We'll access through a UK desk so that the full complement is available.

Many countries have individualized sites. To read all about the advantages for Canadian players please click here. Players in most countries outside the UK are currently served by the Gibraltar license issued to Cassava Enterprises (Gibraltar) Limited. Virtual Digital Services Limited operates the property for players in individual EU member states without local licensing.

Software and Games

eCOGRA Certified Safe & Fair
The company was a founding member of the accreditation compliance group in 2003
Payout reports are published monthly for individual games and overall
The dynamic link is also found on the gaming website.

Prestigious Awards include:

  • Gaming Intelligence * Casino Operator of the Year 2015
  • Global Gaming Awards * Digital Operator of the Year 2014
  • EGR Awards * Casino Operator of the Year 2013
  • TotallyGaming Awards * Best Online Casino of the Year, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012

Multiple languages/multiple currencies

Okay, so...

What about the games?

The U.S. Caesars/888/WSOP site offers fewer choices (~200). In New Jersey look for Evolution Gaming live dealers; IGT slots like Cleopatra; NextGen classics like 1 Can 2 Can; NetEnt, and of course 888/Dragonfish games like:

  • Ultimate Genie
  • City Life (I&II)
  • Panda Manga
  • Dino Stampede

...and many more!
Not bad for a regulated online casino in the U.S.A.!

Most UK and other Euro players, as well as other regions (millions of players in 100+ countries served), will find many more games including:

  • Bingo
  • Blackjack
  • Keno
  • Roulette
  • Scratch Cards
  • Slots
  • Video Poker

Blueprint Gaming, Cryptologic, Electracade, Edict eGaming (Merkur), GamesOS/CTXM, and Yggdrasil add to the mix along with the live dealer suite. You can see all the game providers under Gaming Platform. Canadian players will not see NetEnt games due to licensing restrictions.

Look for more than fifty 888 Exclusive slots including jackpot games like Steampunk Nation, The Royals Go Camping, and Ultimate Grill Thrills!

Proprietary web app's easy navigation

  • Instant play
  • mobile-first
  • multi-provider
  • intelligent
  • sophisticated
  • cutting-edge design
  • massive blog content

In July 2018 the site announced that Yggdrasil Gaming titles would be added to all of their core products. They used the announcement to drive home a late May announcement about the sleek new website.

They also mentioned in May that in-house games were being created by "Section8 Studios" - finally a name for Dragonfish/888 development lab! The brand name has yet to make it to the corporate pages.

Massive Blog Content
A lot of gaming sites offer a few tips and tricks, and several run blog sections for promotional purposes.

You might be wondering...

What does the 888blog offer?

  • Blackjack

Comprehensive FAQ
A topic-driven help section answers questions briefly and succinctly. There's also an online form for questions or concerns as well as document uploads.

Pitfalls

Many years ago, this entire review would be biased toward the negative. For several years after leaving the US market the company's properties as a whole were not what I would call an ethical paradise. The problems of the past seem to have been left behind many years ago, so there's no sense going over past problems.

However, players who are unaware should know that 888 was fined by the UKGC in 2017 for a failure to protect some of their vulnerable customers.

Due to a software glitch, customers who had self-excluded from the casino/sports/poker platform were able to access their accounts via the separate 888bingo platform.

The company alerted regulators and took action. They returned all deposits and paid a record fine to be put toward "a socially responsible cause to invest in measures to tackle gambling-related harm."

Done and dusted.

Today's concerns:

  • No instant cashouts - pending 24-72 hours depending on the method
  • Wins are capped on some bonuses
  • No welcome bonus if a player already accepted one at 888games.com or 777.com websites
  • Jackpots can be paid in 24 monthly installments at their discretion

The Final Word

888casino is a fully compliant UKGC licensed gambling website with a variety of betting options depending upon a players location. The venue rates high for player satisfaction at several review sites, but has some lingering reputation problems at other advocate forums due to past business practices.

The site is tight, bright, and glitzy. Red carpet treatment is extended to all players, and specialized attention is given to VIP players.

The game selection is great, the new website application operates smoothly on mobile, tablet, or desktop, and customer service is personal - especially for a site with so many players.

Very average. Support is bad, but the rest is very decent. Games usually work fine, but sometimes there is Lag.

I used to love playing 888 casino, I was a loyal customer who played once a month usually on pay day id throw $50 or $100 on my account or $20 at a time till I hit my Max of $100 ????- (there were periods where I went two, three, four etc months without making a deposit even) for many years I had an account. Until one day issues I had with a withdrawal ended up with an 888 casino rep (via email correspondence) whilst I was locked out of my account trying to retrieve it... decided I had a self proclaimed serious gambling problem. In which he was able to clearly see, and it was his duty to suspend my account of (approx) 6 years, and ban me from the 888 casino.. ????- unfortunately I do suffer from memory issues, so I honestly cannot recall if they did pay me my winnings, but that's not the part that earned them this rating... its the rep who went on a power trip and decided I had a gambling problem, and his course of action was to delete my 6(approx) loyal member account and ban me from my favourite casino... ?? that's what earned them they're rating. That and considering this happened almost three years ago, I've tried to appeal the decision, speak to customer service about reinstating my account and I've never gotten a response back.. nice business ya got there. Totally seems like you value your customers and the service they pay you for ..%100 ????????

In my opinion, their no deposit bonus is more complicated than usual. Some people may like it this way, but I don't like it that much because you have to deposit money to get the bonus. Maybe change the name to something more appealing. For me, if you ask me, I don't recommend it. Find something easier, there are many.

Even the 0.1 seems like a little bit much, here's a casino that gets upset when you win the rating that you will see here and on every other casino site is something that I think they purchased, Because if you look on Trustpilot is a much more accurate and revealing rating the 1.7 is rather embarrassing and is completely deserving these people will keep your money if you win. Is it possible to be a skilled slot player they say well it in fact but it's very rare. I have actually been dubbed this in many places, during my IQ test I scored in a 99th percentile for pattern recognition and sometimes I see things that allow me to predict and I win quite a bit. And if you start to get to a point where your deposits are less than your withdrawals this casino will confiscate your winnings. They are sleazy, awful downright liars, they took my wings from me on my birthday. To the 888 Casino crew on here you're despicable, I hope you got a business. And to any who have played there, are playing there, or considering to play there, heed this warning, And do check trust pilot as it's very accurate the experiences there to what you will likely experience.

This is one of those casinos that uses the bait and switch goood ol "no deposit" bonus but in the fine print you have to put money into the casino to access the winnings from your free spins. I guess in there language no deposit means theres a sucker born every day. Theres a casino online born every day in the bowles of bowsers final dungeon in hell. They all seem to pop out of the woodwork with the same model of shitty customer retention strategy and university of pheonix caliber MBA know-how thats going to ensure these kind of scams just progpagate into the lackluslter culture of our current interconected circle jerk of social media spam and tik tok vidoes selling vegan leather and "independtly" certified RNG. hard pass
