REVIEW SUMMARY
iNetBet Casino is one of the original online casinos, established in 1999 and currently incorporated under the laws of Curacao. The operator is Internet Gaming Services, UK. Their Real Time Gaming software provides hundreds of games, from video slots and video poker, to bonus bingo, keno, and table games like Caribbean Stud, Vegas 3-card Rummy and roulette.
PROMOTIONS
There are a host of bonuses offered at iNetBet Casino, and slot-only bonuses run as high as 200%, but a standard bonus is their 50% match of your deposit. Every online casino has their own rules and regulations for deposit bonuses, welcome bonuses, loyalty bonuses – and that means make sure your read all the terms and conditions!
To redeem, go to the cashier, click “Redeem Coupon” and enter the code, and then make your deposit. In exchange for a bonus, the casino has regulations that must be followed for total action and games played.
The new player slot bonus requires a rollover of 30-times the deposit and bonus, so a $100 deposit and €/$100 bonus means €/$6,000 in action before the bonus is released to your account and any money can be cashed out. It also means that you get to keep the bonus money if you manage to stay ahead.
The 50% bonus requires 20-times rollover of your deposit and then the bonus will be released to your account. If your deposit is €/$100, you need €/$2000 in play before you can redeem your bonus. Other games include 25-times deposit and bonus for Video Poker, 30-times deposit and bonus for War or Texas Hold’em, and 60-Times deposit and bonus for blackjack.
Roulette players are left out of the fun of bonuses, so don’t redeem a bonus code if you plan to play your favorite game. The rules clearly state: “Offer does not apply to Craps, Sic Bo, Roulette, Baccarat.”
Complimentary Play
At most casinos a free play or complimentary offer is made for continuing loyalty. At iNetBet, all games accrue comp points. Every dollar you play contributes to a fund you can redeem for real money. Games contribute at different rates, but as with other casinos you’ll need to accumulate at least 50 points to redeem them for cash. However, the Points to Cash Rewards increase based on your total play, so you might want to hold-off redeeming to gain even greater rewards.
This is evident when you see that 50 points is redeemable for €/$5, but 100 points is good for €/$10.75 On a greater scale, 300 points is worth €/$41.25 and 1000 points redeems for €/$242.50 Yes, that’s some serious bucks. If you can hold-out until you reach 2000 points, you will receive €/$785!
GAMES
There are several hundred games to choose from at iNetBet and new ones are added regularly. They are strongest on video slots and progressives. You’ll find fruit slots, single-line, 3-reel slots and 5-reel slots. Classic slots like Triple 7 Inferno and All 7’s are popular, as is the new progressive Food Fight, which is a penny machine with colorful food dishes like pie and burgers flying about your video screen and a current jackpot of €/$13,500,.
The largest progressive, Aztec’s Millions, plays splendidly with classy graphics and popping action. The jackpot currently stands at over $1.5 million! Another fun progressive game connected to the Real Time Gaming Network is Shopping Spree, clocking in at over €/$350,000. In addition, iNetBet has more than 100 of their own progressives.
Bingo, Keno and Scratch Cards are all available with games starting at €/$1. Video poker is somewhat generic, but the odds are good, and games offered include Joker Poker, Bonus Deuces Wild, Double Double Bonus – and multiple hands are available on these and many other games.
For table game players, there are also progressive jackpots on Caribbean Stud (currently over $14,000) and Caribbean Hold’em. Traditional games like blackjack, craps and baccarat are offered with limits from €/$1 to €/$1,000. Pai Gow, Sic Bo, Vegas Three Card Rummy and Tri-Card Poker are also found.
For roulette players there are three varieties of games: American double-zero wheel, European single-zero wheel, and French single-zero with La Partage. Games run smoothly and results are clocked on a history scroll to show recent hits. Limits run from €/$1 to €/$250 on both inside and outside wagers.
Overall casino results are supplied to two independent accounting firms, and iNetBet payouts for the past year reveal the slot s have a return rate of 95.35% – Table games have a return rate of 97.32%. Those results are actually higher than most land-based resorts. Just keep in mind that you’ll play a lot more hands online – the games move faster, so your overall hourly rate will still be higher.
GAME TYPES
American, French or European Roulette, can be found in the Speciality Games Section where you can also find the likes of Keno, Craps and Scratchcards like Lucky 8’s. Meanwhile, if you enjoy games like Blackjack, Baccarat, Perfect Pairs and Tri-Card Poker, head to the Table Games Section. You can also play classic slots like 7’s and Stripes, and Real Series slots like Samba Sunset and Novas 7’s. There’s also Video-poker.
SOFTWARE
Realtime Gaming has nearly 20-years of experience in the online gaming market, and its software solutions allow both casinos and players to enjoy a harmonious relationship. Not only do they provide graphically and acoustically pleasing slots and casino games, but they also provide casinos with the resources to customize and implement bonuses, promotions and loyalty schemes to give members enjoyment on many levels, and on instant-play, downloadable and mobile platforms.
SCREENSHOTS
BANKING
Once you have verified your address, ID and any other documents required, you can ask for a withdrawal from the cashier’s cage. Of course you’ll have to have cleared any bonus requirements, but otherwise you are ready to go. Now the wait. You can expect your first withdrawal to take a week to ten days. Why? Because they will check your ID, your bonus selection, your play pattern etc. before accepting your action as verified. Then they send out the bucks.
Your withdrawal can go through several steps, but most players use e-Wallets like Neteller, Skrill, ECO or Click2Pay. Other options, especially for US players, are Bank Wire (takes about 10 days and costs up to $60). Checks can be drawn, but the minimum balance is €/$100 and the processing fee is €/$35 (so you need €/$135 in your account). E-Wallets run 24-48 hours after verification. There is also a €/$2,500 maximum weekly withdrawal limit. Checks are likely to take 7 to 10 business days.
CURRENCIES
New members have a choice of depositing in either US Dollars, Euros or Great British Pounds, but check that your chosen currency is compatible with the deposit-method you’d like to use. Deposit Methods include Credit and Debit Cards, Neteller, Skrill (Moneybookers), Ukash, EntroPay, EziPay, EcoPayz, Click2Pay, UseMyFunds and Wire Transfers. Withdrawal methods also include Express Check and OKPay.

JACKPOTS
iNetBets offers over 100 House Progressives and, whilst many of these vary from anything to €/$80 to €/$40,000 – there are also several progressive slots that are capable of paying out a jackpot of over €/$2Million, including Aztec’s Millions and Jackpot Pinatas . There are also several Caribbean Card Games that offer progressive jackpot prizes, and you can check out all the big recent wins on a scrolling-list on the homepage.
SECURITY
Gateway Financial Services, InstaCash and Prepaid ATM are some of the payment solutions that iNetBets uses, and fast, easy and secure financial transactions are guaranteed by a 128-bit SSL data encryption that is equal to the one used by all large Financial Institutions. Meanwhile, fair-gaming is guaranteed by a Random Number Generator (RGN) that uses uncrackable algorithms which guarantee fair-gaming for both the casino and the player. The RGN is then tested and certified regularly by the independent testers Technical Systems Testing. For the protection of both parties, every transaction is also audited and made available to both casino and player.
VERDICT
The games and software at iNetBet are plentiful (hundreds) and you’ll find that they play well even with slightly slower than standard internet speeds. They also play well on Media devices. There are also many deposit options and downloads are quick and painless. High ratings here.
The bonuses are different than some casinos, and I really like that instead of giving a player a small percentage for certain games, they just increase the rollover needed. Some players will manage the increase and see a profit. However, for roulette players (and many other table game players), having no bonus is disappointing. That gets the bonus a moderate rating.
