PlayFrank Online Casino is a colourful and entertaining online casino that’s been online since 2012. ‘Frank’ himself is a ‘behind the scenes’ figure who says he won a fortune on the ‘Mega Fortune‘ online slots games and decided to put the money to good use, by buying up a dilapidated online casino and restoring it in order to build his dream.
The nuts and bolts of this site are provided by the established casino software firm EveryMatrix Software Ltd, a company that’s based in Malta. EveryMatrix have helped plenty of A-list online casinos establish for themselves a home on the net, including Jetbull Casino, Codeta Casino and CasinoLuck. The PlayFrank Online Casino is powered by licences issued by the Malta Gaming Authority, and the UK Gambling Commission.

Layout and usability
Helping you find your way around the PlayFrank Online Casino are a group of tiny minions. They are blue in colour (and even choose blue as their clothing choices) and depth-perception must be an issue for them, as they only have one eye! They are with you every step of the way as you make your way around PlayFrank’s offerings.
PlayFrank Online Casino has a fresh and funky look. It’s really pleasing to see an online casino that doesn’t slap advertising banners all over the place – there is advertising (of their bonus offerings) at this site, but it’s nice and unobtrusive. The menus here are superb too – when you hunt for a game you can sort by popularity, and filter by game vendor!
First impressions at the PlayFrank Online Casino are certainly great!
PlayFrank has put just as much effort into his mobile casino app as he has done his desktop site. This app is available to iPads, iPhones and nearly all Android-powered phones/tablets too. You do not need to install any software to your device to get the app to run – just visit the PlayFrank Online Casino site on your smart phone or tablets and everything you need to play is downloaded temporarily into your chosen browser.
Promotions for existing players
PlayFrank loves his most loyal players, and is always looking to give them a little something extra. If you’re a regular player at the PlayFrank Online Casino, then expect extra offers such as special bonuses and free spins deals.
There’s always a challenge or two on-going at the PlayFrank Online Casino. For example, at the time of this review you could join the ‘Time to Party’ challenge. All you had to do was deposit and wager at least €20 on one of four popular slots games: Spinata Grande, Spin Party, Royal Masquerade or Pimped. Once you’d done that, you would receive ten, wagering-free bonus spins on one of those slots, Spinata Grande.
Additionally, you can claim a weekly reward bonus at this online casino. You can only claim this bonus once a week, and it’s a fifty percent bonus up to a maximum of €50. The wagering associated with this reload bonus is thirty times the sum of the bonus and deposit, and deposits made via Skrill or Neteller will not qualify you for this bonus deal.
VIP/Loyalty Scheme
There ‘seems’ to be a loyalty scheme here. We say ‘seems’ as on the surface (i.e. to non-members) there seems to be very little information about it. All it says is that you will be rewarded for your loyalty at this online casino, and the more you play, the more goodness you receive. You can earn bonuses, extra rewards and free spins just by playing. That’s about as much info as we are able to pertain. If you sign up with the PlayFrank Online Casino then you’ll be able to find out a lot more about the rewards that might await you if you become a regular player here.
Special features
The full list of software providers at the PlayFrank Online Casino goes as follows:
- Evolution Gaming, Play n’ GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, NYX Gaming, QuickSpin, WMS, Playson and Genii.
If you’re new to the online casino realm then rest assured with that selection you have some of the biggest and best names in the business.
Look out too for the ‘winner board’ here that pops up to the right of the main casino page. Here are listed on an ongoing basis all the latest and greatest winners at the PlayFrank Online Casino! If you’re a lucky bunny then you might just receive the joy of seeing your name up there in lights!
Other betting options
PlayFrank has yet to get his footie kit on and offer his fans an online sports book, so it’s online casino fun only here. Bingo and dedicated poker rooms do not get a look-in either.
Conclusion
We’d really like to be top buddies with PlayFrank, but we hope he’s an understanding chap as we’re not going to give him the full five-star rating. We prefer live chat that’s available 24/7 as you can never guarantee what time (day or night) that you’ll need a bit of help. We’d also like to see better FAQs …
… but we are being a little bit mean. There’s plenty to be jolly about at the PlayFrank Online Casino, including some lovely promotions and games from many of the best software providers going. Why not visit PlayFrank’s online casino and see just how friendly he is?
