WagonBet Casino Overview

Licensed by Curacao, WagonBet Casino is a non-US-friendly online casino packed with an excellent range of online gaming products with a stronger focus on betting. Committed to providing high-quality services, the operator offers approximately 45,000 sports events per month, and a wide variety of excellent online casino games from the most popular providers such as Play’n GO, Booming Games, Yggdrasil, KA Gaming, Wazdan, and so on.

As a crypto-friendly operator, WagonBet allows players to deposit and withdraw using Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Tether, and a couple of other cryptocurrencies. Knowing that incentives are highly appreciated among players, it features a well-equipped promotional section with valuable offers.

Registration

On April 19, 2023, our tester accessed WagonBet Casino’s official page aiming to become a member. She pressed the “Register” button in the upper right corner, opening a 3-step form to be completed. All she had to do was enter some basic info about herself. The process was finalized rapidly, with no obstacles.

Deposit and KYC

Having signed up within less than 3 minutes, the tester went on to deposit. She was presented with the option immediately upon joining the casino.

The tester selected Bitcoin and entered USD 200, after which she was redirected to another page to copy and paste the given wallet address.

Before the funds appeared in her casino balance, the tester decided to verify her identity. She visited the “Documents” section under her profile, where she uploaded an image of her passport and a selfie with the said document.

The sum which appeared on the tester’s balance was USD 196.25, slightly less than the one she initially typed in. This discrepancy resulted from the Bitcoin value fluctuations, which is a common thing.

According to the Terms:

“8.12.3. The administration has the right to request account verification.

You need to send a photo of your identification documents, such as the passport or an ID card (page with a photo), utility bill (mobile phone bill cannot be accepted). If you made deposits to your account with a debit/credit card, you may be asked to provide us a photo of the cards’ front side where the cardholder name, the expiry date, the first and last four digits of the card number are visible and readable.

If you have made deposits from electronic wallets, you must provide a screenshot from your personal account.”

The minimum amount to deposit is USD 10. To fund the account, players can use MasterCard, VISA, AstroPay, Boleto Bancario, Interac, Piastrix, Pix, Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ripple, Tether, Ethereum, Litecoin, and USD Coin.

Gameplay

As soon as she finished registration, ID verification, and deposit, the tester went on to explore a couple of games. The first release she launched was Ten Times Wins by Rival, followed by Caishen Wealth Hold & Win and Hit the Gold! Hold & Win.

Her next choice was Buffalo Thunderstacks, after which she checked out Burning Bells 40. None of the games she checked out have brought her any major winnings.

Withdrawal and KYC

On the same day, the tester decided to cash out the available funds from her balance. She found the option under the profile and made a request to withdraw USD 50.

A day later, on April 20, 2023, the tester received an e-mail from the casino, in which she was asked to verify the payment method by providing a screenshot of her crypto address. The tester also supplied an image of a valid utility bill.

On April 23, 2023, the tester received an e-mail that her request was processed.

The money was credited on the same day, so our tester received 0.001863 BTC, which corresponds to the requested sum.

According to the Terms, the maximum amount a player can withdraw within a month is 20,000 EUR, while the minimum is set at EUR 20. Also, the maximum amount of a single cashout request shouldn’t exceed 1,000 EUR or the equivalent amount in other applicable currencies. 

A player needs to wager the deposit amount at least once before submitting a cashout request. Withdrawals must be processed within 24 working hours from the date the request was made. Finally, the Terms note that the Finance Department works from Monday to Friday, 09:00 am to 6:00 pm GMT+3.

“8.12.2. Funds must be withdrawn with the same method used for depositing. If the payment method is not available, you need to make a minimum deposit from an alternative one and complete the verification procedure.”

Conclusion

Despite the fact that the Terms indicate that the Finance Department works from Monday to Friday and has limited working hours, our tester had her request processed on Sunday. However, the processing of her withdrawal took longer than the timeframe noted in the Terms. Other than these delays, no other issues were spotted during the investigation.
