Betsafe was launched in January 2006 and now boasts around half a million customers from over 100 countries. With a multi-lingual, multi-currency site they have a global appeal and are based in Malta where they are licensed and regulated by the Lotteries and Gaming Authority of that country. They are owned by the BML Group, a giant Swedish gaming organisation that also operates Betsson and a number of other sites, has around 1,000 employees and 50 years of industry experience.
Betsafe is a multi-software casino so as well as great Net Entertainment games you also get classics from Microgaming (Quickfire) and other software companies, although the majority of games are NetEnt.
Payment Methods & Currencies
Accounts can be operated in Euros, Lev, Norwegian and Swedish Crowns, Polish Zloty, USD or British Pounds with the bonuses being converted from Euros. There is a wide range of deposit methods including:
- Visa, Visa Electron, Maestro and Mastercard
- Speedcard
- Entropay
- Neteller
- Skrill (Moneybookers)
- Paysafecard
- Click and Buy
- Trustly
- Citadel
Payout Times & Limits
Betsafe aim to process all withdrawals in 12-24 hours after you make the withdrawal request, and from general consensus, they do a pretty good job of ensuring it’s the lower-end of that scale.
Once the withdrawals been accepted and processed, you can expect to receive your funds in 3-5 days if using a Credit/Debit Card, and 24 hours for EWallet withdrawals.
There’s currently no withdrawal limits either, which is a big plus for larger-staking players. Of course, if you’re planning on depositing, and withdrawing thousands of pounds or more, we’d always recommend getting in touch with Betsafe first, just to be safe, but their terms and conditions do state there’s no limits… so you’re good to go.
About
Betsafe is a great site with a huge range of games across the two casino lounges. The use of multiple software providers expands that range from the already impressive NetEnt selection and gives players extra choice. There is also great choice when it comes to languages – with eight supported, including English, Swedish and German – and currencies so it is no surprise to see that Betsafe is popular all over the world despite its Scandinavian roots.
Customer service options are strong too, with live chat, phone and email all being available, as well as a helpful FAQ section. With access to some huge NetEnt progressive jackpots – one lucky Norwegian recently won €3.9 in Casino Red – and a good range of games, it is sure to keep you happy for hours at a time.
To elevate itself to the top tier of NetEnt casinos we would like to see more in the way of regular offers and reloads but other than that there is little to improve at this fun online casino.
No… joking aside, it’s a site well-worth playing at – if you’re from one of the eligible countries – and if you reside in a country that qualifies for one of the promotional bonuses, you’re in for an even sweeter gaming experience!
Our Verdict
Betsafe is one of those online casinos that has – pretty much – got their operation down to a tee, and they offer players an exciting, safe, and unique gaming experience, thanks to their commitment to offering a player-friendly website.
The games are quick to load, and thanks to the Instant Play design, there’s no need to download any software or plugins. We liked the high levels of security the site uses, and all data between you, and the casino, is SSL encrypted, ensuring none of your personal information ever falls into the wrong hands.
It’s also nice to see the large selection of games and slots on offer, and with titles from net, Cryptologic, and Evolution Gaming, there’s a ton of choice.
If we had to nit-pick, the only major downsides with Betsafe Casino are that their support network isn’t quite up to par with some of the other online casinos… but you’ll still be able to get relatively fast support, using email, or contacting the live chat team during working hours.
All in all, Betsafe is an online casino you should seriously consider.
