About
Online Vegas Casino is what
you get when you mix the best in online gambling with
the best that land-based Las Vegas has to offer. Sounds cliche, I know. However, Online Vegas is truly modeled
after the Las Vegas experience - giving special emphasis
on customer service/loyalty, tournaments and bonuses
(including gift card bonuses, which are popular with
U.S. players). Owned by the same team that developed Go
Casino and the newer Crazy Slots Casino, Online Vegas is
backed by a solid reputation and a tight track record.
Licensing and regulation in Netherlands, Antilles
(Curacao) is held by Hambledon NV (HBM Management),
which also happens to be a longstanding member of the
Curacao Internet Gaming Association (CIGA). For any
player unfamiliar with CIGA, it is an industry trade
body dedicated to fostering and maintaining best
practice regulatory standards in Curacao.

Casino Software
Online Vegas Casino is
powered by Vegas Technology Software, which undergoes
continued testing by Certified Fair Gambling (CFG). Led
by industry recognized Dr. Eliot Jacobson, CFG has
served a leader in quality assurance and fairness
auditing of online casinos since 2003. In terms of
functionality, Vegas Technology software has one of the
fastest download speeds on the market. Condensing the
larger part of their gaming portfolio to around 1MB per
casino game - as opposed to 2-4 MB, the platform also
uses up less disk space on personal computers.
Furthermore, the Flash platform provides instant access
via secure transfer protocols, making Online Vegas ideal
for mobile gaming applications.

Bonuses & Promotions
Online Vegas offers a
welcome bonus package worth a total of
$5,125 over the
course of ten deposits. This is one of the best slots
welcome bonuses out there, for it has a play-through of
just 10x. In addition to giving 15% cash back on wire
transfers, Online Vegas dishes out ongoing weekly online
surprise bonuses and special bonuses as part of their
multi-tier loyalty program. All players are entitled to
a Tuesday and Wednesday deposit bonus worth 85% and 100%
up to $1,000 Free, each respectively. Depending on
loyalty tier status, Online Vegas awards from 25-100%
bonuses up to $1,000 free on Sunday's each month and up
to 20% cashback on losses incurred during the previous
week - not that losses are a given :). Online Vegas is
also known for their gift card bonuses, which are
especially popular with US players, since gift cards are
a preferred means of depositing funds with players
residing here. See the online cashier after logging into
the software platform for details.

Games & Payouts
The vast
majority of the 125+ downloadable casino
games, including over 90 slot machines at
Online Vegas can be viewed via medium sized
screen shots on the Online Vegas website. Of
course, all of these games can be played
with unlimited fun money credits, which is a
great way to get in some practice, learn a
gambling strategy firsthand, and/or to
simply become familiar with the look and
feel of the software platform. As mentioned,
many of these games are slot machines, which
only makes sense, considering the huge
lineup of slots tournaments at Online Vegas.
Being that Online Vegas is networked with Go
Casino and Crazy Slots, the tournaments here
get huge. Expect hundreds of thousands of
dollars in guaranteed winnings each month,
with entry fees as low as one quarter. And
if slots aren't your cup of tea, Online
Vegas also hosts pot percentage video poker
and blackjack tournaments throughout the
week.

Online Cashier
Besides the fact
that the Cashier page at
OnlineVegas.com
provides a helpful list of Deposit and
Withdrawal methods accepted (Gift Card,
Credit Card, Neteller, Money Bookers, Check
and Bank Wire), it serves as a testament to
the transparency of Online Vegas and their
dedication to keeping players in the know.
In other words, you won't find any of that
"bait and switch" stuff at Online Vegas.
Rather than burying maximum withdrawal
amounts in their T&C's, which most other
online casinos do, Online Vegas tells you up
front that the most you can withdrawal in
any given week is $8,000 (not bad at all in
terms of a maximum bar). They also let you
know that - depending on one's residential
jurisdiction, i.e., the U.S. - first time
withdrawals can sometimes take longer than
the average of 5-10 days. Just know that you
WILL get your money. All transactions are
processed using 128-bit encryption
technology, while the logs of said
transactions are stored on Secure Socket
Layer (SSL) firewalls. On that note, all
transactions and wager results are available
to players through the software platform.

Gaming Policies
Read the FAQ page at
OnlineVegas.com for answers to the most common
questions. In terms of any red tape, Online Vegas merely
imposes the same restrictions you will find on any free
bonus money (don't play restricted games, don't make
withdrawal requests for the play-through is fully met
and don't wager at all if you mistakenly claimed a
bonus!), as well as the normal fraud prevention
guidelines (don't open more than one account per
household and make sure all your documents match up).

Casino Customer
Service
It's good to know that
Online Vegas values the
communication process when it comes to player relations,
for - quite frankly - many an online casino these days
outsources customer service to companies with poorly
trained personnel often barely efficient at speaking
players native tongues. When you send your support
emails into Online Vegas at adminen [at] OnlineVegas.com
(note the "en" at the end of admin), you can guarantee
you will be reaching a rep who speaks English very well
and who can get you the answers to all of your questions
and issues. Toll-free telephone customer service is also
available 24/7, and includes a direct line to dedicated
support.
Back to Top
Awards
Online Vegas has
won numerous Best US Online Casino awards
from online gaming webzines like Gambling
Gazette and review site, Online Gambling
Insider, for several years running. As
things stand currently, Online Vegas should
be on the receiving end of many more awards
in the years to come.
