• Conclusion

Ownership of BGO Entertainment Limited, BGO casino takes the humoresque and flashy approach in its visual presentation and shows us the true purpose of gambling – easy money, plenty of fun and larger than life attitude. Essentially, however, there is nothing funny about BGO; their license is issued by Alderney Egambling Ordinance as well as by the British Gambling Commission, making BGO one of the most reliable online gambling service providers out there. Funny and frivolous, maybe – funny business, definitely not.

When it comes to software providers, BGO can without a doubt back up its over the top TV add; the list of their developers is truly impressive and their site hosts releases by Playtech, NetEnt, WMS, NextGen as well as in-house solutions. The casino is fully optimized for mobile devices and includes live real-time games in their offer with the list of return to player percentage for each of the releases. Currently, BGO does not accept USA players nor $ currency and you will notice that the list of restricted countries is not what you would call short.

Software

BGO has a successful cooperation with the most influential developers in the field and the games provided on the site include releases from Playtech, NetEnt, NextGen, Bally, IGT, WMS, Endemol, Quickspin, BGO, Eyecon, and Blue Gem. The games, for the time being, cannot be filtered and searched by their developer, but, since BGO offers a possibility of test play, you can easily see who the maker is when you open the desired release. Once the game loads, additional information such as the software provided and other essentials will be displayed just underneath the main screen.

Better yet, BGO is an instant play type casino and you do not need to download anything to launch their games. Mobile device users will find that you can load the site from your Android or MAC and enjoy all the titles (Live Casino included) by simply launching the casino from your phone and tablets. The casino will retain the visual quality and launching speed, regardless of the device used to launch and play the game.

Games

The great thing about this casino is that it allows for the test ride before the player commits to opening an account or playing for real money. All the games can be played in demo mode before you switch to real money play and registration process is a simple procedure, requiring no more that a few clicks.

The games are placed under 5 categories, all marked in a different colour, adding more flare to casino’s attractive visual profile. The first category, Casino, is further divided into New Games, Table Games, Roulette, Jackpot Games, Slots, Video Poker and Live Games. The entire group is a mixture of the releases that you can find under other categories, but segmented according to land based casino popularity.

Vegas tab will surround you with the bright lights of Vegas Strip glamour, giving you a choice between more slots, progressive jackpots, myth&legend themed games, movies&TV inspired releases, scratch games and Classic favourites such as 100 Pandas, Big Brother Online Slot, Starburst, Ghostbusters, Gonzo’s Guest. Yellow tab will also feature new and hot titles, whereas Bingo lovers can go straight to BGO Bingo casino and enjoy Bingo Progressives, Bingo Linx Party with a special prize, Deal or No Deal Bingo and others. To access their Live Casino offer, account is required and once you join BGO, you enter the glamorous world of Live Roulette, Blackjack, Unlimited Blackjack, Baccarat, Casino Hold’em and French Roulette.

Jackpot Games

It is with its list of progressive jackpot games where BGO Casino truly shines. Unlike some online casinos that have no more than 10 or 15 jackpot games, it features a massive collection of over 90 titles. All slots under this category have progressive jackpots but this is the only thing they have in common – the games are provided by several software providers, they have different designs and themes, and come with various special features and bonus rounds.

The online casino offers a nearly complete range of Playtech’s progressive jackpot games, including the studio’s top slots such as Jackpot Giant and Beach Life. The 5-reel, 50-line Jackpot Giant is certainly the most popular title by Playtech but not only due to its rapidly increasing top prize but also for its beautiful graphics and compelling storyline. It comes with a volcanic island theme, sleek animations, and a surprisingly funny giant who can make you a millionaire after a few spins. Moreover, the jackpot can be hit during regular spins mode and does not require you to open some bonus round and go through multiple levels in order to win.

Other popular progressives by Playtech offered at BGO are Funky Fruits, Gladiator, and Esmeralda. Another great jackpot you can try to hit is the DC Super Heroes Grand Jackpot which is available in a large number of games, including Batman Begins, Justice League, Superman the Movie, Green Lantern, Man of Steel, as well as all Batman-based slots. The other jackpot slot series by Playtech, namely Age of the Gods and Mega Jackpots, are also offered at BGO Casino.

Some of NetEnt’s best progressive games can be played at the casino and they include the 5-reel, 25-line Mega Fortune slot which paid one of the biggest online jackpots ever. On 20 January 2013, an anonymous Finnish player at Paf Casino hit the Mega Fortune Mega jackpot, which at the time was worth the staggering €17,860,868.

Licensing and Jurisdictions

The online casino is owned and operated by BGO Entertainment Limited, an Alderney-based company which is fully licensed and regulated by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission. This local regulator actually grants companies such as BGO gaming licences for international operations. The operator also holds a licence issued by the United Kingdom Gambling Commission, so it is authorized to offer its services both within the UK and abroad.

However, this is a bit of an exaggeration as the casino’s list of restricted countries is much longer than one might expect. The website of BGO Casino may be blocked in many countries where online gambling is illegal and players from such territories are likely to be declined a registration. In addition, users from the following countries are not allowed to place wagers and win real-money prizes – USA, US/GB Virgin Islands, US Minor Outlying Territories, Spain, Italy, France and Overseas regions, Afghanistan, Libya, Sierra Leone, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, Mali, Sudan, Belgium, Greece, Israel, Turkey, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Denmark, Estonia, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Macau, the Philippines, Singapore, Hungary, the UAE, Romania, Portugal, the Netherlands, Russia, Poland, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Australia and Colombia.

Site Layout and Design

BGO Casino offers a great variety of games but this is just one of the many attractive aspects of registering an account here. Another impressive thing that instantly catches the eye is the website’s design and overall appearance. Apparently, it was created with simplicity in mind – it is well-organized, with all different games neatly grouped and categorized, so that players can instantly find any slot, table game or bingo variation they are looking for.

The casino’s fun, light-hearted attitude clearly shows in the design as everything was made with a lovely sense of humour – from the fun, bold styling of the promotions to the amusing articles in the Blog section of the casino. With the exception of these, BGO keeps it simple with a classic layout, convenient shortcuts to most of the site’s pages, and easy navigation. It is worth mentioning the fact that the instant-play platform of the casino performs well, loading instantly in-browser with beautiful animations and smooth gameplay even in newer, graphically demanding games.

Banking

In order to provide its customers with convenience when funding their balance or cashing out their winnings, BGO Casino works with a wide range of payment services like credit cards, digital wallets and wire transfers. In fact, when compared to the dozens of options available at some online casinos, the methods you can use at BGO do seem rather limited. Still, these are the most popular payment methods around the world and most players are likely to already use one or two of them on a regular basis.

The casino does not accept players from the United States and, apparently, using US dollars is not an option, too, which for many international players might be an issue. However, BGO’s cashier processes payments in EUR, GBP, SEK and NOK.

Deposit Options

Before making a deposit into the casino, players should know that there are certain limits and fees they need to consider. For instance, the minimum deposit amount is £10, while the maximum limit varies, depending on the preferred payment method. Any deposit below £500 (or currency equivalent) is subject to a tax offset fee of 2.5% of the deposit amount, with a minimum fee of £0.50.

The most popular deposit method at BGO is via a web wallet, an online service that allows users to store real money and transfer funds on the Internet in a completely secure manner. There are various e-wallets available, but the biggest ones could be used at the online casino – Neteller, Skrill (formerly known as Moneybookers), and PayPal. Topping up your gaming account via any of these three is safe, easy and instantaneous, and the funds you deposited appear in your casino balance immediately.

The other major option for depositing at BGO Casino is through a credit or debit card, which is also incredibly safe and convenient. All MasterCard, Maestro and Visa-branded cards are accepted and the deposits are completed within seconds. There are many casino players, however, who do not wish to use their credit cards for gambling online and would look for an alternative that allows you to remain anonymous.

There is one such alternative offered by BGO Casino and it is called Paysafe card. Paysafe is a relatively new service (compared to credit cards and bank transfers) and it is a preferred deposit method at multiple online casinos. The Paysafe card is a prepaid paper voucher which can be purchased from thousands of retail outlets, shops and news stands, but it is also available in a virtual format. You can either buy vouchers from a local shop or purchase Paysafe PINs online – in both cases, you will receive a code that when used on the deposit page, loads funds into your balance.

Withdrawal Options

Most services that are used for deposits at BGO Casino are also available for withdrawals. This includes all credit and debit cards, but there might be restrictions in some countries. As a result, you may not be allowed to cash out using MasterCard or Visa. If that option is available, the transactions usually take between 3 and 5 business days to complete. The casino also pays out through bank transfers but this method is also limited to certain countries and banking institutions. The processing time is the same – up to 5 business days.

Many casino patrons would prefer faster withdrawals, which is why BGO Casino also processes these payments to e-wallets such as PayPal, Neteller, and Skrill. Usually, the funds are transferred to your e-wallet instantly, but in some cases, you may receive your winnings within 24 hours. Of course, the prepaid Paysafe cards cannot be used to retrieve your winnings from the casino.

There is a processing fee of £2.50 for all withdrawals. Players who wish to retrieve their winnings should take the minimum limit of £20 per transaction into consideration. The maximum amount you can withdraw is £5,000 a day and up to £25,000 a week, while VIP members can enjoy higher withdrawal limits of up to £100,000 a week.

Customer Support

BGO Casino may be an excellent choice for many online players but the lack of round-the-clock support may be considered an inconvenience, especially for casino patrons in different time zones. The customer support representatives can be contacted (0330 094 8055, standard charges apply) from 09:00 to 23:59 BST, which means there is no one to answer your questions during the night.

You can also reach them via the Live Chat facility on the website, by email (support@bgo.com), or using the Email Us template posted on the Help page. In addition, BGO Casino has also displayed its physical address for those who wish to write them a letter. The support may not be available 24 hours a day, but the staff is very polite and helpful. More importantly, the support representatives will always do their best to solve any problem in a fast and professional manner.

You can open the original casino site in English, but it is also available in German, Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish.

FAQ

Conclusion

BGO is a goofy-looking online casino with a serious approach to online gambling entertainment and clearly dedicated to supreme customer satisfaction. From the payment methods provided (VISA, MasterCard, Instadebit, PayPal, Paysafecard, Neteller and Skrill, latter being the safest and worldwide popular e-wallets) to their data protection policies, SSL encryption used for client safety, fast withdrawal times – minimum 1 business day – and vast selection of games by the top developers, BGO does not leave anything to chance.

Unfortunately, not everyone can enjoy what BGO has to offer and players from USA, France, Spain and some other countries will have to seek their adrenaline surge elsewhere. USA dollars are also excluded from the list of accepted currencies and the players can submit their deposits in Norwegian kroner, Swedish kronor, pounds and euros. And while there definitely are some great online casinos in the gambling cyber space, not many offer such a lengthy list of truly generous and innovative promotions and bonuses.
