Humphrey High-Roller Hippo, the mascot of FatBet Casino appears on the logo and will walk you through all of the site’s services. When you visit the website for the first time, you will only get a sample of the game lobby. All the vendors are listed at the bottom of the page and include some of the notable names in the industry as well as some of the less-known, but equally exciting software providers.

Entering the iGaming market in May 2022, this casino caters to players located in South Africa. Still, we couldn’t find the info about licenses and jurisdiction, so we advise you to read the Terms and Conditions very carefully before you register an account.  

With more than 450 games available, many of us can find our favorites!

The casino uses a dark background with an interactive banner advertising its most interesting bonuses and offers. Scrolling down the homepage will reveal the current promotions during December.

We also tried a mobile version of the platform – in our opinion, the mobile casino’s user interface is far superior to the desktop version since it is highly suited for tiny screens and works very smoothly. There are modest layout adjustments because the mobile casino has a hamburger menu where you can access crucial parts.

Now let’s look at what High-Roller Hippo has to offer!

Software and Games

As we said earlier, this online gaming hub offers hundreds of games from Betsoft Gaming, Fugaso, Dragon Gaming, Spinomenal, Tom Horn Gaming, and many others.

The lobby is also unusually organized, with each vendor having their own category for slots. You may choose the whole slot range at once and further filter it. However, after accessing the whole game lobby and only after registering the account, you will have the opportunity to play the games in Play for Fun or Play for Real mode

When you click the ‘Slots’ button at the top of the homepage, you’ll come across some great slot titles:

• Rumpel Thrill Spins
• Tahiti Time
• Strike Gold
• Wish me Luck
• Wilds of Fortune
• Diamond Rhino
• One Million Reels BC

The most popular table games included are:

• Roulette
• Baccarat
• Go-Go Bingo
• Teen Patti Pro
• Fresh Deck Studios
• Blackjack Multihand

There are also video poker titles, including Deuces Wild Multihand, Deuces Joker, Tens or Better, Double Joker, and so on. Scratch & Win games include Penguin Payday, Pirate’s Pillage, Beach Bums, and many others.

The live dealer category is one of the categories the casino is the proudest of. Let's mention only a few of them:

• Fresh Jeck Studios
• Roulette
• Teen Patti Rapid
• Blackjack
• Andar Bahar
• Baccarat

Bonuses and Promotions

When you’ve exhausted FatBet Casino’s welcome offer, you may return any day of the week to take advantage of a unique daily bonus. Even though the casino has daily promotions, players must deposit a minimum of AU$ 20 in order to qualify for the bonuses. We’ve listed some of the juiciest bonuses:

• Half Price Monday, where you need to log in on the first day of the week to get a bonus.
• Triple Stack Tuesday – you need to deposit a certain sum to become eligible for extra spins.
• Weigh-In Wednesday – on Wednesdays, you may get a portion of the nice prize pool.
• Twice As Nice Thursday – every Thursday, players who deposit a certain sum will get a reload offer together with extra spins.
• FatBet Fryday – upon depositing a specified sum, you’ll get a bonus.
• Spicy Saturdays – you can get a reload bonus.
• Sunday Lunch – interestingly, this offer is laid out like a Sunday lunch menu. You will receive a sequential bonus for the starter, main dish, and dessert.

So, the casino has some really, really, really nice offers. There is also a Loyalty club with four levels – Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Elite. Three of them are open to all registered players. To advance to the program’s ultimate level, you must be an active participant in order to be recognized by the team, since it is only possible through a personal invitation.

The first three levels enable you access to unique weekly bonuses, greater deposit and withdrawal limits, a personal account manager, higher Chomp Points, faster withdrawal processing, and other benefits.

Chomp Points earned in return for wagers may be redeemed for cash bonuses. So, the higher your level is, the more points you will earn. 

Banking and Customer Support

Depositing and withdrawal options this casino accepts are various credit cards, instant EFT, and bitcoin. If you don’t use bitcoins, banking can be a hassle, and the options available depend on your location. Instant EFT and credit cards are deposit methods that have a low minimum deposit, which is great. The casino accepts funds in ZAR, AUD, and USD.

However, if you are a player who funded the account with cryptocurrency, the casino will ask you to send a picture of yourself holding a government-issued photo ID next to your face.   

The site states that they will process the withdrawals within 48 hours, while the funds will reach your account within five business days. What is also important to mention is that withdrawal requests are processed only on weekdays.

The minimum withdrawal limits are not stated anywhere on the site, but the maximum withdrawal limits per week are reasonable.

We can say that the Frequently Asked Questions section contains little valuable information, while the T&Cs part contains more detailed information. If you have any more questions about the features or need assistance with an issue, contact the casino’s 24/7 customer support…

…which is available even before registering, but it seems that it takes a while to get the reply from the agent via live chat. You can locate a live chat bubble at the right bottom corner of the homepage. The answers we received were a bit vague to be really helpful.

The email address is [email protected], so you have this option, too.

Pitfalls

• The gaming portfolio could be bigger
• There is no search tab for games
• Lacks telephone support
• Winnings from casino spins are capped
• High wagering requirements
• Limited choice of banking options

The Final Word

Besides a charming mascot, pleasant design, plenty of promotions, and an excellent welcome package, there is also a small selection of banking options, no license on the site, and a smaller gaming library. On the plus side, loyalty rewards and a points system are usually advantageous.

Still, if you think this is ok with you, take a look around. The only thing we recommend is that you read the Terms and Conditions very carefully before making a deposit. Have fun playing!
