Omni Casino Review

Omni Casino was one of the very first online casinos worldwide, and the fact that it’s still in business certainly carries some weight. During this time they managed to collect more than 30 industry awards, among which several delivered by Casino Player and Gambling Online magazines. Hey, even The Pogg recommends them, and we all know how tough these guys are! The Casino is operating with a license issued by the Government of Curacao, uses SSL digital encryption software to ensure the highest level of safety and security, while the fairness of their games is guaranteed by an RNG employment and TST certificate.

How do you feel about a welcome bonus of up to $2,000 plus 100 Mega Free Spins? The bonus is delivered over 4 initial deposits starting with a 100% match bonus up to $300 on your first deposit. The second deposit is matched with a 75% bonus up to $400, the third with a 50% bonus up to $500 while on your fourth deposit, you will get a 50% bonus up to $800 and 100 free spins. The same promo code is used for all bonuses: 100MEGA. Do note the fine print which says that “your account must be less than $5 before claiming another bonus and may not have a pending withdrawal”. There are also some restrictions in terms of games. For example, the bonus cannot be played on any of the table games or Video Pokers. For each of Omni Casino welcome bonuses, 25x Bonus + Deposit wagering requirements apply.

Alternatively, you can collect a High-Roller welcome offer in the amount of $500 providing you deposit $1,000 or more. Having claimed this single-deposit bonus, you’ll only be able to make a withdrawal after having wagered $15,000.

Hot Seat Promotion is apparently the most popular of Omni offers, judging by the votes of their members. A player must play a minimum of five of thirty-one gaming days during a month to win a prize, and wager a minimum of $1,250 per day to earn one 1 Hot seat point. Depending on how many points you collect, the Casino will credit wager-free $15 to $500 to your account at the beginning of the following month. Weekly promotions dish out treats every single day of the week, mostly in the form of generous reloads. Double Royal payouts are offered every Friday and Saturday for playing Video Pokers; get a Royal Flush in hearts and the Casino will double the payout up to $1,000 (wager-free!).

Club O VIP program makes you a member as soon as you join. A familiar mechanism awards every $10 wagered with 1 Club O comp point which can be converted into real cash. Advancing through 3 loyalty levels delivers better points-to-cash conversion rates, special offers, higher deposit and game limits, express cash-outs, and more.

Software & Games

Mobile Casino

Highly rated Playtech games can be enjoyed on your mobile devices as well, with over 200 games available on tablet and smartphone at the time of writing. All the titles are nicely sorted according to categories they belong to, but it is important to note that Playtech live dealer cannot be enjoyed on the move at Omni Casino.

Banking

The list of 28 banking methods available for making deposits includes a great range of credit/debit cards, E-wallets, Prepaid cards and Instant Banking options; the only thing missing is a mobile payment option (wonder why). All of them, except Ukash and Paysafecard, can also be used to cash out up to $10,000 per month. On the negative side, withdrawal requests could be held pending between 48 and 72 hours, however, most players report extremely fast cashouts. Accepted currencies include USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CAD, ZAR and YEN.

Customer Support

Knowing what a solid reputation Omni Casino has among players, for quality of customer support as for the other elements of their offering, it was disappointing to see FAQ link leading nowhere, and Live chat being offline – especially since the Casino claims their support team works 24/7. Should you encounter the same situation, you’ll just have to use one of the other contact options available, either telephone or email.

Verdict

Casino Bloke genuinely believes that a bad online gaming provider can’t survive for long, and having learnt that Omni Casino is old enough to be allowed to gamble, he started off with high hopes. It’s true that the site itself would benefit from a re-design, as it looks a bit dated, but that wasn’t high on our list of priorities, and it’s probably not on top of yours either. Playtech is not at all a bad choice when it comes to single-provider venues, but the resulting library is still quite modest, and while we appreciate loads of promotions to take advantage of, as well as the high bonus offered to new members, related wagering requirements are simply over the top. The biggest disappointment, however, is the lack of mobile gaming option. Overall, Omni Casino seems to have frozen in time some years ago and/or have simply given up. Perhaps like with dogs, 19 in casino years equals 133 in human’s, and it might be time to retire?
