Betarno is a relatively new online platform powered by ProgressPlay Limited. Players will enjoy instant access to a large variety of games like slots, table games, live dealer games, and a large sportsbook section offering markets on both major and minor events.

There’s no shortage of software providers as the casino is home to some of the best names in the industry. Players can access the platform through most web browsers and devices, and the operator is licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority and the UK Gambling Commission.

Also, the website is, by default, available in English, but there are other languages to choose from as well such as Portuguese, Japanese, Spanish, and French, and the operator promotes responsible gaming and tries to control the funds the punters use to play.

The platform promotes responsible gaming and enables the members to use online tools to control the amount of money they use to play. This is a bit part of online gambling and shouldn’t be overlooked by any operators on the market. So, what about some other features of this place? Well, below is some important and useful information for you to decide for yourself.

Software and Games

The platform is filled with popular software providers like Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, NetEnt, Play'n GO, Yggdrasil, ELK Studios, Red Tiger Gaming, Blueprint Gaming, Big Time Gaming, Thunderkick, SG Digital, Push Gaming, and many others.

The games library is packed with lots of different game types but one of the most popular by far, is video slots. Also, there is a drop-down menu to select favorite providers and therefore the game itself. Moreover, the whole interface is easy to navigate with nice search filters to go through.

The games lobby offers hundreds of video slots from a long list of software providers. Players can easily access this list by using the drop-down menu which allows players to then pick their favorite providers if they wish. Some of the platform's most popular titles include the Book of Dead, Rainbow Riches, Immortal Romance, Starburst, Starlight Princess, Wolf Gold, Legacy of Dead, Bonanza, Jammin' Jars, Divine Fortune, Dragon's Fire, Reactoonz, and others. Of course, there are plenty more video slots…

More traditional games can also be found on the platform. Some of them are even themed to add more entertainment. The platform serves the players with the iconic Hold’em Poker – considered as one the most popular types of poker. We have some other interesting stuff like Vegas Downtown Blackjack, 21 Bet, Keno, Dragon Tiger, and more.

Their live section is packed with games that are streamed in real-time and the titles here include the variants of Blackjack, Roulette, Poker, and Baccarat.

Bonuses and Promotions

New and existing customers can enjoy fantastic deals every day of the week as the large number of promotions is a characteristic feature of the company’s websites.

The platform welcomes new players with bonuses on the first couple of deposits, which must be at the platform’s minimum. The bonuses are valid for a somewhat longer period than usual, but the wagering requirements are not so fair.

On the other hand, the major drawback in ProgressPlay venues’ welcome offers is the max win conversion. Here you are allowed to withdraw bonus winnings equal to only a couple of times its amount, which is not so great…

Some rules to have in mind regarding bonuses:

• wagering is first deducted from the real money balance.
• winnings from such a wager shall be split between real money and bonus balance according to the sum of real money and bonus balance used in such a wager. If
• It is forbidden to access the bonus balance while players have any open game round and while wagering with real money
• only wagers made with bonus funds will contribute towards the applicable wagering requirement
• wagers made after the first successful deposit will contribute to the wagering requirements.
• wagers made with real money will not count towards the wagering.
• If you have more than one active bonus, the winnings and the contribution towards the wagering are divided between these bonuses according to the initial sum of each bonus and thus are separated.
• Not all games contribute the same. It depends on the category and type of the games itself (some games are explicitly excluded under the T&Cs).
• players may withdraw real money balance at any time, but, any request of withdrawal of funds from the real money balance before completing the wagering will cause the removal of the bonus funds.

The rest of the promotions for existing players include sportsbook and betting promotions. There are more sports promotions than the ones for casino games.

Also, the platform powers the ’Rewards Programme’. Here you can complete fun missions to unlock rewards! You can find out more information about each reward by logging in. Every time you progress to a higher level, you will get access to better rewards (complete specific tasks, such as trying out a new game, claiming a bonus, or triggering a specific feature on a slot. With new missions regularly, you’ll be earning points in no time at all). Also, there are ‘Levels & Badges’ –the more you play, the higher you will rank, and the more achievement badges you will receive that unlock exclusive offers and advantages. However, note that the max conversion from extra spins is low as well.

What can you do with your points? Rewards Store – Redeem your points in the Rewards Store for fantastic offers including extra Spins, deposit bonuses, cashback deals, and extras. Win Prizes – your progress can earn you prizes, exclusive deals, first access to new games, tournaments, and more.

Banking and Customer Support

The following deposit methods are available to deposit money on the platform: Credit and Debit Card, PayPal, PayviaPhone, Neteller, Paysafecard, Skrill, Ecopayz,Trustly, Zonda, and BitBayPay. The availability of each payment method depends on the registration country and chosen currency. Players’ accounts will be credited with the deposit only after the deposit is confirmed by the operator and the relevant payment method. Until the confirmation is received, the deposit will not be included in the account’s balance. The operator does not provide credit, nor does it participate in, arrange, permit, or knowingly facilitate the giving of credit. Deposits made via PayviaPhone have a large processing fee which will be deducted from your deposit amount, so be careful about that.

There are some differences when the player’s account is regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority and the UK Gambling Commission. For example, the withdrawal limitations are different (but both are not good enough in comparison to other platforms), winnings that can be withdrawn at once in full amount for progressive jackpots are only possible for the account regulated by MGA, different KYC, etc.

If the accounts are regulated by the Gambling Commission (customers in the UK), the payment method used for the deposit must be verified before any withdrawal can be processed. Also, not all payment methods and currencies are provided in each location. Some methods are only available in certain countries and with certain currencies. Hence, it’s best to visit the payment options and T&Cs rules to be sure which method to choose when playing.

The platform reserves the right to reject transactions if the owner has not provided sufficient evidence to prove his identity and may determine minimum and maximum deposit limits depending on the method chosen by a client. Also, before any withdrawal, customers must undergo the KYC process. Should concerns arise regarding the player’s documentation in connection with AML or similar issues, then the operator may request notarized documents and suspend your account (including freezing all funds deposited) until further notification.

All deposits that are not linked to a bonus must be wagered before a withdrawal. Also, the platform reserves the right to charge processing fees for withdrawals in general, whereas a processing fee is calculated in the amount per withdrawal.

Customers who need help can contact a customer service agent. One of the quickest ways to get help is by using their live chat, which is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Players can also email the platform or use their online contact form should they require any additional assistance.

Pitfalls

• Low daily and weekly withdrawal limits
• The platform can request notarized documents from the players
• The operator may at its discretion and without having to justify, refuse to open an account or close an existing account
• Inactive account fees
• No cryptocurrency
• Withdrawal processing fees

Final word

This platform seems legitimate with different casino games, sportsbooks, and betting. Also, acceptable minimum and maximum deposit, and most of all, a proper operating license on two fronts from both MGA and the UK Gambling Commission. However, these two licenses provide a somewhat different treatment for UK-based players and others. For example, there are some discrepancies as to the KYC process, withdrawal limits, and others. On the other hand, some parts of the platform could be better. For example, their winning’s max conversion for the welcome bonuses, the KYC process should be eased down a little bit (given the operator can request a notarized ID). Overall, if anyone is looking for a reliable platform in terms of payment while enjoying a great video slot selection, live games, and sports betting, Betarno seems like a nice fit. Of course, we’ll see if it stands out the test of time.
