Genting is one of the best known land based casino operators in the world, with an empire which stretches from the UK all the way to Australia. The group decided to come online in 2010, and has won a fair share of the market since.
This isn’t only a casino operator, and you will also be able to bet on sports at the site. Healthy bonuses are available for sports punters and casino players alike.
In this Genting review we will take a closer look at the various services on offer and see what’s what. How does it compare to what else is out there and is it worth registering? We will discover that in the rest of this review.
Genting has created a great online offering to match its world-class land based facilities.
We do think the wagering terms on bonuses are a little high, but apart from that everything is great. Give it a try.
When you register at Genting you will be able to avail of bonuses in both the sportsbook and the online casino. In this section we will cover what’s on offer and some of the terms and conditions which come with the offers.
Genting offers a risk-free bet of ￡10, meaning if your first bet loses you will be able to have another go.
Your first bet must be made at odds of 2.0 or greater and the free bet will only kick in if your bet loses. The bet will be paid when the qualifying bet is settled, and the wagering requirement on the free bet returns is betting them at odds of 5.0.
New players in the Genting casino can claim a welcome bonus of 100% up to ￡1,000. This is a single deposit match, meaning you can claim it all in one go rather than over multiple deposits.
The wagering terms on the bonus are x50, which are a fair bit higher than average. You will need to deposit at least ￡10 to qualify for this welcome offer.
Playing live blackjack on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday could see you walk away with as many as two ￡10 bonuses each day.
Wagering terms on the bonus cash are x10 and the cards will be inserted randomly to blackjack decks in the live casino.
If you bet regularly then you will be rewarded at this casino. Genting points accumulate for doing virtually anything and will begin stacking up as soon as you join and start playing.
As these points add up you can trade them in for extra bonuses, and free spins. The higher you climb in the ranks, the faster you accumulate points and the better the rewards.
You will be able to bet on basically all of the major sports in the Genting sportsbook. Football, horse racing, tennis, cricket, golf, boxing, UFC/MMA, basketball, baseball, rugby, snooker, and lots of other sports are available to bet on.
Naturally enough, football betting is the biggest section and you will be able to bet on most matches from around the world. EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Serie A matches are all covered and league matches from Chile to China are there to be bet on. Needless to say, the big events like the World Cup and Champions League are available to have a punt on.
As far as actual football betting markets go, you can bet on outright winners, total goals scored, team to score first and further goals (during live play), half and full-time scores, total goals, and a range of other bets. Live or in-play betting is of course available in both the flash site and betting app.
There aren’t a lot of extra features such as match stats, analysis, news, or live streaming events like you might find at some online bookmakers. That stated, this is a solid betting site which offers most of what most punters will be looking for. It’s no-frills, but what it offers is very good.
Since Genting is a world-leader in land based casinos, we went into this review expecting a lot from them. We weren’t disappointed and found a broad range of casino games covering slots, card games, table and dice games, and live casino games. This is essentially access to a Vegas casino on your laptop or mobile.
Games are provided by a range of software firms including IGT, Playtech, and Blueprint Gaming. This is always encouraging to see and means you will have access to the best games on the web. A quick search will confirm that these are the industry leaders with endless awards won between them.
Let’s now delve deeper into each category and see exactly what’s on offer.
Slots are available in abundance here, and while we don’t have an exact lock on the number, there are close to 200 to choose from. IGT slots will greet you in the lobby, and a quick search will reveal slots from Playtech and Blueprint Gaming are also available to play.
If you are new to slots online and are looking for a few suggestions we recommend starting with Gladiator Jackpot from Playtech and Reel King or Cleopatra slots from IGT. All of these will give you a chance to win massive jackpots without breaking the bank.
If you want to see a full list of the slot games, and indeed all of the games, available at Genting then just click ‘A-Z of games’ in the main menu at the top. Alternative, use the game search feature to check if a specific game is available.
We like how the games are organized at this casino and how easy they are to find. Along the top menu you will see icons which you can click to reveal the table and card games available. Menu tabs include blackjack, roulette, live games, and video poker.
Click any one of these and you will see several variants of each. Blackjack games include standard blackjack, blackjack surrender, and progressive blackjack. Roulette games include American, European, 3D, and multi-ball roulette.
If video poker tickles your fancy you can play Bonus Poker, Deuces Wild, Aces & Faces, Joker Poker, Jacks or Better, and a few others.
There are two live games providers serving up offerings in the Genting live casino. They are Genting themselves and Crockfords, who cater to VIP level players.
Choices include baccarat, blackjack, three card poker, roulette, and Texas hold ‘em.
There is no specific, dedicated bingo section at Genting. If this is a deal breaker for you we suggest checking out Ladbrokes instead.
While you will be able to enjoy some poker variants in the casino, there is no poker client for download and no tournaments against other players. If you need poker then you will be hard pushed to find a better casino than Betfair.
IGT, Playtech, and Blueprint Gaming are some of the best of the best, and so we are happy with game quality. We were a little unsure how Genting’s own live games would measure up, but we found them to be very satisfactory and encountered no problems.
The fact this casino holds a UK license is also reassuring with regards payouts and game fairness. We give Genting games the green light.
Genting offers quality mobile apps for both sports betting and casino gaming. You can download them on the site itself, or in the case of iOS users, in the Apple store.
These apps are individual, meaning you can choose to download one or the other or both, and they are well-designed and high quality. We downloaded to our iPad and played around for a while. There were no freezes or breaks and we found them very easy to use.
This is a limited range of payment methods as compared to some other casinos online. We would hope to see this offering expand in the future.
Genting is available in English only.
You can use GBP, EUR, and USD.
Genting has a good reputation and the fact it holds a UK Gambling Commission sanctioned licence is a big plus.
Where we do call Genting out for being a little under competitive is the bonus terms and conditions. X50 wagering requirements are just a little too high, and you will find deals with wagering terms as low as x20 at the likes of Bet365. Granted, the Genting offer is a lot bigger, but this is still worth knowing before making a decision.
The connection is safe and encrypted. We have no worries about the safety and security of this casino.
