Layout and usability

Depending on which area of gaming you’re interested in, will determine the theme of Betsafe Casino, this is because each platform of the casino has a different theme:

  • Betsafe casino: Even though there is a simple dark grey pinstripe background, the home page is quite busy. When landing on the page you see the main menu in bright red, followed by a banner and the game selection which displays icons for games.
  • Betsafe poker has a similar feel to the Casino page. Poker games can be played according to preference – Poker Red being NetEnt Software and Poker Black being CryptoLogic software.
  • Betsafe sports: The sports section is a simple dark grey background with all the games listed on the left, depending on what you sport you want to bet on. The main section of the page lists results, upcoming games and games being played at the moment.
  • Betsafe live betting: This has a very similar look and feel to the sports section of the casino; this is where you can bet on live games. It offers live feeds and has a unique sports field background.
  • Betsafe live casino is Vegas inspired, when you land on the page you are automatically drawn toward the Vegas background with pin up girls. There is a list of live games you can choose from that is divided into categories.

The Betsafe mobile casino brings you the ability to play throughout the United Kingdom and world alike. Whether you find yourself in England, Scotland, Ireland or Wales, you can now rest assured that you will be able to play your favourite mobile casino straight from your smart phone or tablet device! No download is needed to enjoy the mobile freedom, all that you need is a device which supports HTML5 – which both Android and Apple products do. So sit back, relax and begin to enjoy the thrills of this amazing mobile casino!

Promotions for existing players

As with most big gambling companies (and make no bones about it, Betsafe is a BIG gambling company) the range of offers available at all times is sizeable. There’s always a great range of offers available to existing players at the site, such as special bonuses for live casino games, and deals if you play the ‘game of the week’. You just need to pay a visit to their promotions page whenever you log in so you can see all the latest deals.

We do have a slight criticism, though. The deals here seem too-tailored for live casino players. We’d like to see more offers for players whom prefer to avoid the live casino tables.

VIP/Loyalty scheme

Surprisingly, the casino side of the Betsafe gambling arena does not have either a VIP or loyalty scheme. This a real surprise as the poker side of Betsafe does, and it’s a little hard to understand why they could not have extended this to the casino side as well.

Special features

Betsafe Casino makes use of seven different casino software providers: Microgaming, NetEnt, Evolution Gaming (for the live casino options), Ongame, Play’n GO, Thunderkick and Red Tiger Gaming. You can play at the casino via instant play, download or mobile, depending on your preference.

For the first time at this casino, we saw a small downfall – the support on their live chat just wasn’t very good, and they do not offer an international phone number to get hold of them. You can contact them via their UK line 0044-808-2800 766, which is 24/7. Alternatively you can contact them via live chat or you can email them on support-en@betsafe.com.

Other betting options

Betsafe is part of Betsson, a Swedish gambling company that can trace its roots all the way back to 1963. One part of Betsson actually branched out and broke off and eventually became the supreme gambling software company we all know and love today as NetEnt. Betsafe itself was a separate concern until it was gobbled up by Betsson in 2011. Both companies have been long-term leading lights in Scandinavia for all forms of online gambling, and now offer their complete gambling portfolio to the rest of the world.

The main components of Betsafe then are the casino, the live casino, the sports book, in-play betting, a dedicated horse-racing section, a poker room and a virtual sports section. The only thing that’s really missing is a bingo section!

Overall Rating of Betsafe Casino

There’s one thing you can rest assured of at Betsafe – here you can bet safely no matter your wagering choice – sports, casino, live casino or poker. This is a very big brand and as the tag line of the main site says, you’ve got to be “in it to win it”. Let’s hope that when you sign up with this superior online casino you’ll not only win, you’ll win bigly!
