About Betway Casino

Betway is an online gambling brand which was founded in 2006.  A truly international brand, they hold licences in many jurisdictions in Europe, the Americas and Africa and have more than 60 brand partnerships with sports teams and leagues all over the world.  Parent organisation Super Group is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and employs more than 3500 people in 17 different countries.

Betway have placed operating responsibly (i.e. safer gambling) and betting integrity (i.e. ensuring that all the markets they offer are corruption free) at the centre of their corporate strategy.   And they don’t just talk the talk, they walk the walk – in 2020 they became the first to ban markets on player transfer and managerial jobs in football after widespread reports of manipulation.  Their work in this area led to them winning an award in 2022 for their outstanding contribution to sports betting integrity.

Betway also give back to the community via Super Group’s WayForward initiative which highlights and helps raise money for worthy causes.

A highly reputable brand, then, and this also extends to their player funds protection which has been rated High (the top level, which is rare).

Getting Started At Betway Casino

It’s quick and easy to register an account at Betway Casino but there are a few things to bear in mind:

• Betway don’t advertise their welcome offers on their home page, so if you decide to have a look around before you register you will no longer see the offer.  As soon as you hit the Register button, however, you’ll see it again.
• You need to select the offer you want when you create an account.  The offer we’re advertising is pre-selected but other offers (e.g. sports, esports) are available, as is “No Welcome Offer”.  You can check the full terms and conditions of each offer via a pop-up without leaving the registration page.
• In order to be able to claim the welcome offer you MUST use a debit card to make your first deposit, and you should also check that the debit card you are going to use is not on the list of exclusions (mostly prepaid cards and non UK banks) in the offer terms and conditions.
• After making your deposit you must play through £10 to activate the free spins.  Note that this has to be done within 7 days and the clock starts ticking when you register, not when you make your first deposit.  After activating the spins, you have 7 days to load up Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner and play them.

Slot Games At Betway Casino

Betway have a long association with Microgaming and this means that Betway Casino is particularly well served for Microgaming (or as we should now say, Games Global) titles.  All of the classics like Immortal Romance, Thunderstruck II and more recent favourites like 9 Masks of Fire are there, along with many WowPot and Mega Moolah jackpot games. Indeed, for several years Betway held the record for the biggest ever payout on an online slot machine afer a Betway player won more than £13 million on Mega Moolah back in 2015).  There’s also special must-win jackpot versions of Microgaming slots like Thunderstruck Wild Lightning, Break da Bank Again Megaways and Fishin’ Pots of Gold.

There’s plenty of other games from other providers to choose from as well.  For example, there’s Starburst, Bonanza, Cleopatra, Book of Dead and around a dozen of Pragmatic Play’s Big Bass games (and yes, Betway participate in the Drops & Wins promotion).

Other Games

There’s a great selection of other games at Betway.  The Casino and Vegas lobby areas have many variations on blackjack, roulette and other table games.  There’s also a Slingo area with more than 30 titles, an Instant Win area with scratch, Lucky Tap and minesweeper style games plus a Crash Games area with Aviator, Spaceman, Maverick, Big Bass Crash and others.

Then there’s the Live Casino part of the site, which is exceptional in the range of games it has to offer.  Look inside the Game Shows area and you’ll find games by Evolution, Playtech, Pragmatic Play, On Air, Bet Games TV and Authentic Gaming which has to be one of the best selections anywhere.  Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat, Lottery (Mega Ball etc), Dice Games and Poker all have their own lobby areas and there’s even an area for the live casino version of the Drops & Wins promotion.

Other Products

Betway has a well established sportsbook with in-play betting, plus politics and special bets (e.g. reality TV shows) and there’s also a virtual sports area (where you can bet on computer-generated football matches and races of various kinds).  This is not to be confused with the esports area where you can place bets on League of Legends, Call of Duty, VALORANT and several other esports competitions, with pre-game and in-play markets available (making Betway a market leader in this admittedly rather niche area).

The sportsbook has its own promotions including Betway Boost and the Betway Insider blog has news and information about the sports and esports they cover.

Other Things To Know About Betway

Betway has mobile apps for casino, live casino and sports betting and they seem to be very popular (the casino app alone has had more than 500,000 downloads from the Play store).  You can also simply visit the Betway website from your phone (or follow the link from there to download the app).

The range of payment methods at Betway is certainly not the biggest, but two very popular payment methods (PayPal and Trustly) are available if you don’t want to use your debit card going forward (as noted above, you’ll have to use if for your first deposit if you want to claim the offer).

Final Thoughts

Betway is a well established and extremely reputable online casino with a great range of games plus a sportsbook.  If you don’t already have an account there it is very much worth checking out.
