500% Super Play Welcome Bonus
New depositors can take their pick from two different options for the casino’s Super Play Welcome Bonus. This is the first option – a match bonus worth up to $5,000 at a match rate of 500%. This bonus requires a playthrough of 35x.
100% No-Max Welcome Bonus
This is the second welcome bonus option – a match bonus worth up to $1,000 at a match rate of 100%. This bonus requires a playthrough of 25x.
$10 Free Chip
All new depositors earn $10 in free play in the form of a $10 Free Chip. Any winnings you accrue while playing with the $10 in free play is subject to a 60x playthrough requirement, and a max withdrawal amount of $125. If you win more than that, you forfeit any amount above $125.
$100 Referrals
For every customer you refer that makes a deposit of at least $25, you’ll earn $100 in free betting cash. Your winnings are subject to a 60x playthrough requirement, and winnings are capped at $1,000. Any winnings you earn beyond $1,000 while playing with referral money is forfeited.
Perks
Perks is the name of Café Casino’s rewards program. All players start out with certain rewards by virtue of joining the Perks program. Entry-level members enjoy 10% Daily Cashback offers, weekly bonus offers, a chance to win a weekly $4,000 prize pool drawing, and the standard spate of bonuses and promotions offered above. As you accumulate more rewards points, those numbers start going up. For instance, at the next level (in exchange for 50,000 points) you have access to $150 referral fees, more entries in the prize pool, and even better bonus offers.
Large and Varied Game Library
A total of 207 games are available at Café Casino, about half that number also available at their mobile-capable website. We were most excited to see the long list of available blackjack variants. Most US-facing casino sites are so heavy with slot machines, they’re basically useless to those of us that like table games and other contests besides just machine-style gaming.
Good Variety of Bonuses and Promotions
This requires a caveat – for a site that’s just launched in the past few weeks, Café Casino has a decent bonus lineup, and several of those bonuses have decent playthrough requirements and other terms and conditions.
Fast Payout Times
We have to make another caveat – they have really fast posted payout times. That means that we can’t verify whether or not the times they post are accurate. We haven’t had a chance to make a withdrawal ourselves, and we can’t find any reviews or notes from actual customers who have. Still, getting a payment within ten business days is good timing for US customers, most of whom are used to times much longer than that.
Limited Deposit and Withdrawal Options
You can deposit using a credit card or Bitcoin, and that’s it. Your withdrawal options aren’t much more varied, with the addition of a paper check delivered via courier. We get that it’s tough to offer a varied lineup of payment options to US customers, considering the restrictions of the UIGEA bill. Still, it needs to be said. You don’t have a lot of ways to send money to and from your Café Casino account.
Open to US Customers Only
This isn’t a big deal if you live in the US. But millions of casino fans around the world won’t be able to access Café Casino, and for them, that’s a bummer. There’s something else to consider when you’re dealing with a US-facing gambling site – why would a site want to do business in such a difficult market? It’s easy to imagine nefarious reasons for doing so, but the truth is probably very simple. The US market is relatively untapped, thanks to the very UIGEA restrictions that made us a little suspicious of Café Casino to begin with.
