Overview
BitBet is a Bitcoin-based casino and online sports betting and racebook portal. It boasts a massive selection of games, including both live and virtual, and makes creating and maintaining an account quick and easy.
Features
Account creation is anonymous and automatic, although it does require some information like a payout address and a secret question and answer. This enhances security and ensures that nobody can simply get in to your account, although it is also a hassle when you want to just jump in and start playing.
BitBet offers up multiple different gambling types: a sportsbook, a racebook, and five separate casinos that are built-in: Fortuna, Casa Blanca, Circus Circus, Oasis Real and Sands of the Caribbean. Each of these is different in what they contain, as follows:
- Fortuna – free play bonus casino
- Casa Blanca – fantasy blackjack tournaments
- Circus Circus – coming soon
- Oasis Real – live dealers
- Sands of the Caribbean – coming soon
Upon clicking on any of the casino links, it then opens up a separate page specifically for what it offers. It is worth noting that it appears each of these is hosted in a different place, although the funds (deposits and withdrawals) are all dealt with through BitBet.
BitBet offers up live support, as well as a phone number and email for assistance as needed. This makes getting help extremely easy when it’s needed.
Games Offered
- Video Poker
- Slots
- Arcade games
- Card and table games
- Roulette
- Keno
With all of the games offered, there are multiple variations. All in all, BitBet claims to have over 150 different games across its three virtual casinos and two live casino platforms.
Deposits and Withdrawals
Once an account has been created, making deposits in to a player account is done by simply clicking on the “Deposit Bitcoins” link at the top of the site. Here, an address is given to send payments to. All deposits are added to the account with zero confirmations, essentially making them instant.
Withdrawals are done through the same method as depositing. There is a minimum withdrawal amount of 0.01 BTC, and they are all done manually. BitBet strives to get all withdrawals handled within 24 hours, although this may not always be the case with every withdrawal.
Promotions
BitBet does not offer any promotions for their casino at this time.
