Betfair Casino review

Betfair Casino review: overview

As the casino arm of Betfair, Betfair Casino shares a brand famous for its betting exchange. Flutter Entertainment owns Betfair.

Betfair Casino Ltd runs the casino and holds a remote casino licence from the Gambling Commission under account number 39435. You can check this on the Gambling Commission public register. You need to pass age and identity checks before you can play.

This Betfair Casino review covers the welcome offer, games, payments, apps and safer gambling tools, with the pros and cons of each.

Welcome offer

The current Betfair Casino welcome offer is 50 Free Spins + Wager £10 Get 50 More. It is open to new casino customers in the UK and Ireland who opt in with promo code CASF51.

• You get 50 free spins worth 10p each on selected Jackpot King games, with no deposit needed.
• Deposit and spend £10 on eligible Jackpot King games to unlock a further 50 free spins.
• E-wallet deposits do not qualify.
• Free spins expire 7 days after Betfair adds them to your account.

Getting spins without depositing is a genuine plus, as you can try the site before you spend anything. Remember to enter the promo code and to use a debit card or another eligible method for the qualifying deposit. See more deals on our latest casino offers page.

18+. New customers only. Full T&Cs apply.

Games and software

Betfair Casino advertises more than 1,000 games, covering slots, Megaways, jackpot games and Slingo. Highlights include:

• Jackpot King progressive jackpots across a range of slots
• Drops and wins, including hourly and daily jackpots that must drop
• Betfair-branded exclusive games
• Live casino with roulette, blackjack and game shows
• Card and table games plus arcade titles

There is also a free-to-play Daily Prize Pinball game for a chance to win rewards without staking. As with all UK casinos, slot stakes are capped at £5 per spin for players aged 25 and over and £2 for 18 to 24 year olds. New to casino games? Read our online casino basics guide.

Payments and withdrawals

Betfair offers more payment choice than many rivals. Depending on your account, you can use Visa and Mastercard debit cards, Apple Pay, Pay by Bank, standard bank transfer and e-wallets such as PayPal, Skrill and Neteller. The minimum deposit varies by method, and the cashier shows it. UK rules don’t allow gambling with credit cards.

Withdrawal speed depends on the method:

• Pay by Bank is Betfair’s recommended option, with funds appearing in your bank straight away
• Instant card withdrawals to Visa and participating Mastercard cards usually take 1 to 4 hours, and rarely up to 24 hours
• Standard card withdrawals take 2 to 5 working days

A closed-loop policy applies and your identity must be verified before you withdraw.

App and mobile experience

Betfair Casino has its own apps for iOS and Android, separate from the Betfair sportsbook and exchange apps. On Android, the app has reasonable ratings and supports PIN or fingerprint login. The iOS app has a noticeably lower App Store rating, with recent reviews raising concerns about bonuses and game returns. Alternatively, you can use the mobile site if you prefer not to download an app.

Safer gambling and customer support

Betfair’s safer gambling tools are among the most complete we have seen. As well as deposit limits, you can set loss limits for specific products such as casino, see your profit and loss over a chosen period, and turn on Gaming Time Check reminders that show your net position. You can take a time-out of up to 30 days or self-exclude for six months or more, and a budget calculator helps you work out what is affordable.

You can also block all UK-licensed sites through GAMSTOP and get free advice from GambleAware. Customer support is available through Betfair’s help centre, where you can get in touch by live chat.

Our verdict

Our Betfair Casino review finds a trustworthy, Flutter-owned casino with a large game library, strong Jackpot King content, fast withdrawals via Pay by Bank and excellent safer gambling tools. The welcome offer is fair, with spins available before you deposit.

The weaker points are the poorly rated iOS app, the need to remember a promo code, and the exclusion of e-wallet deposits from the offer. Always set a budget first, and compare Betfair with the other sites in our casino reviews hub.
