Europa Casino

Europa Casino is owned and managed by Imperial E-Club Limited, which operates a small group of Playtech Software’s top performing online casino licensees. Europa Casino ranks in the top 10% of all Playtech licensees and in the top 3% of online casinos licensed by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission. With stats and credentials like those, there really isn’t much else needed to justify why Europa Casino deserves to be in business. Well, maybe that’s a little bit of an exaggeration. Customer service is always important, if not the most important factor of all. And if you’re from the U.S. there simply is no need to “justify”, since Playtech Software does not permit its licensees to accept players residing in the U.S.A.

As their name implies, Europa Casino does indeed cater to European players, yet the question remains, how does Europa Casino fare on the online slots front? Well, we wouldn’t be reviewing them if they weren’t up to par, if that means anything. That said, let’s take a look at the different factors that make for the best online slots casinos - Promotions, slots tournaments, and the slots themselves. Let’s begin with the latter.

Online Slots and Casino Games Portfolio

Europa Casino offers both a downloadable and Flash software package. The download package offers over 100 online casino games, including over 70 online slots. A varied lineup of what many players consider to be the most pristine graphics, include 15+ classic single-line multi-line machines, multi-spin video slots, 5-line games, 8-line, 9-line, 15-line, 20-line (the bulk of the slots portfolio), 25-line and 30-line online slots. And for all you thrill-seeking high rollers, there’s also a 50-line game fittingly called “Thrill Seekers”, not to mention ten progressive slots. Some of the more popular titles you may have heard about include Gold Rally (usually worth over €1 million), Diamond Valley, Wall St. Fever, Safe Cracker and Beach Life (worth over $/€/£2 million at the time of this review).

Promotions and Online Slots Bonuses

Slots players can participate in both “Fun Money” and “Real Money” gambling modes at Europa Casino. However, in order to be eligible for a welcome bonus or special promotion, a minimum deposit of $/€/£25 must first be made with the cashier (financial transactions are handled by Imperial E-Club subsidiary, Fastengine Ltd.).

Depending on your bank account size, two slots welcome bonuses are for the taking. One is a 100% Match Bonus up to €100 Free, while the other is geared toward high rollers, worth $/€/£500 Free. The latter is a 50% bonus requiring a minimum deposit of $/€/£1,000 (€1,500 to gamble with), while the former offer is actually advertised as a $/€/£2,400 bonus. The reason being is that this is actually a welcome/reload bonus awarding up to $/€/£100 Free on every first deposit of the month. This amounts to €1,200 Free over the course of one year. Couple this with $/€/£25 Loyalty Bonuses every week, and that equates to €2,400 in bonus money covering twelve calendar months. Of course, you will need to be a member of the VIP Loyalty program to earn weekly loyalty bonuses. And in order to do that, you will need to gamble real money. In other words, the bonuses here are definitely geared more toward players who like to gamble online - not a once-in-a-blue-moon type of player. But if you’re that type of player anyways, you shouldn’t be claiming bonus cash anyways, for wager requirements won’t make doing so worthwhile.

Wager Requirements:

In the case of bonuses at Europa Casino, play-through’s are 40x for the 100% Match Bonus, 20x for the High Roller $/€/£500 Bonus, and for the best terms of all, just 2x for 10/15% deposit method bonuses. In order to claim this latter bonus, you must use one of the alternative deposit methods offered in the Europa Casino cashier. Don’t be scared by the term, for the reality is that these “alternative” methods are secure eWallet’s, such as Neteller, which are frequently used online. Keep in mind that in order to receive this bonus, you must email or call customer service to request a bonus form. Game restrictions include Baccarat, all versions of Roulette, all versions of Sic Bo, all versions of Darts, Heads or Tails, all Video Poker games, Blackjack Switch, Blackjack Surrender, Pontoon, and Craps. Please note, if you gamble on any of these games BEFORE the wager requirement is fully met, all winnings derived from the bonus may be deemed null and void.

Fast Track Benefits:

Another thing to keep in mind about playing online slots with real cash at Europa Casino, or any online casino for that matter, is that you will need to verify your identity before cashing out for the first time. To make the process go much faster, players are generally required to fill out what is commonly called a Fax Back form. In the case of Europa Casino, all players who supply the needed information to process withdrawals (confirmation form, proof of address and identification, and credit card verification), will be given “Fast Track Benefits”. These include an instant credit of $/€/£25, a 10% bonus on credit card deposits made in the first month, faster withdrawal processing times and enhanced security.

Last but not least, and certainly worth mentioning, are Europa Casino’s Friend Referral Bonuses. Better than the majority of friend referral bonuses outside of the Imperial E-Club family, for every referred friend who deposits at least $/€/£25, the referring player will receive a $/€/£50 bonus subject to normal bonus wagering requirements (30x play-through).

Online Slots Tournaments

This is the one area where Europa Casino does not stack up as good as the best online slots casinos out there. However, players who become familiar with Imperial E-Club’s network of online casinos, will soon find other options accommodating to online slots tournaments. The way it works is that all of Imperial E-Club’s casinos contribute to the “Elite Challenge” tournament network. Some sites offer table game tournaments while others specialize in online slots. The choice is yours. One of the perks about the online slots tournaments here is that winnings are more evenly distributed. For example, instead of divvying out $1,000 by giving $500 to first place, $200 to the first runner up and so on, Elite Challenge online slots tournaments sometimes split up the winnings equally for the top 10 finishers. That means more money for placing lower down on the leader board.
