Bet365 Review

Full Review

Bet365 is a modern gambling operator in every sense of the word. It has grown out of a land based sports betting company in the UK – Provincial Racing, owned by the Coates family – in 2000. The company has since then let go of its retail betting shops, focusing exclusively on the internet. In its 14 years of activity it has grown into one of the biggest such companies of the world, with its over 14 million registered customers.

The Bet365 casino operates on a license issued by the authorities of Gibraltar.

Software and games

Bet365 offers its players three separate sections where they can play casino games: the casino itself, the Games section and Vegas, offering a selection of premium slots.

The online casino operated by the company uses software provided by Playtech. It has a downloadable suite of over 250 casino games, several browser-based games and an extensive mobile product range.

The games offered by the casino can be played through the downloadable software suite on Windows PCs, and in a browser window on Apple desktop products and computers running other operating systems. (On Linux players can give Wine a chance, but it’s safer for them to rely on the browser based version).

The Bet365 mobile casino app runs on smart devices with iOS 6.1 or later, or Android 4+. For devices running other operating systems there is an instant play version available as well, accessible at the bet365 web address.

Now let’s see the game variety.

For those with experience in casino gaming the Playtech brand says it all. The list of available casino games consists of a nice variety of video slot machines, several of them with consistent progressive jackpots, with the most various of themes. Among them you can find a very popular series of slot machines inspired by characters of the Marvel universe – Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Fantastic Four or even The Avengers – with their very own common progressive jackpot (and a consistent one, too).

The casino also offers its players a variety of card games, table games, several video poker versions, lots of scratch cards, bingo, and even a casino version of Rock Paper Scissors.

The live casino operated by Bet365 offers its players the chance to play roulette, blackjack, baccarat or Casino Hold’em against the most attractive European or Asian dealers of the internet, both on desktop and mobile.
