I’m old school.
And I accept that.
Which is why I generally prefer casino brands that have a desktop-installable software.
Unfortunately, there isn’t much around to play around with.
To get your hands dirty in the game of losing funds, while double-clicking the amicable-cum-wallet-emptying software installed on my MAC, that completes the feat for you.
Googling only brought about two names Sloto’Cash (slotcash.im) and Miami Club (miamiclubcasino.im), both owned by a company called Deckmedia.
Thing is whenever I test out a new casino, I always tend to do a bit of due diligence
I mean this is how anyone should approach it instead of acting like sheep and following the herd; willfully signing up at any place an online gambling affiliate website sends us over to.
Like many gazillion offshore setups, I failed to find out the true location of this outfit
That is other than two “unverifiable” licenses from the island of Curacao and the Netherlands Antilles.
Not that I look at it as a way to complain, considering I myself play at offshore betting sites like WildCasino.ag.
I don’t find anything wrong with throwing a dice or two at off-the-grid, hidden-from-the-crowd, but ethical online casinos.
At least not until online slots gaming becomes 100% legal in the US.
The laws right now aren’t that clear.
Even though names like BetRivers, FanDuel, DraftKings and other toppers of this legal world do offer online slots.
The good thing I found about Slotocash was that it’s been around since 2007.
Well being honest, it’s never been the case that I’d never heard of them.
Just never got the chance to test them out.
Main reason being that Slotocash doesn’t offer anything out of this world.
It’s a standard Realtime Gaming – people call it an RTG casino for short – betting site
And I have played their slot titles. Numerous times; on sites like Stake, Gamdom etc.
All mostly crypto casinos.
It was their MAC-installable casino software that basically encouraged me to give it a shot.
There was nothing confusing about signing up at this site
Just click the Sign Up button on their site, fill up the form, with your name, email and phone; agree to their Terms, and you’re good to go.
Being an oldie gambling brand, they got all sorts of deposit options – I think I saw Visa, Mastercard, Paysafecard, even bank wire options.
My budget for their testing was $500, so I dropped that through BTC.
My purpose for writing such reviews is to validate the authenticity of an online casino
What really matters is if a betting site can pay.
Or “does pay” without making a fuss.
Not that it’s a surprise or anything, but the number #1 worry of all new users isn’t the fact that they’ll eventually lose out their deposits to the house, but if it would hold up its end of the bargain, if one accidently, by a sheer stroke of luck does win a life-changing jackpot.
You see most iGaming companies only charge a monthly license fee, and perhaps a small percentage of the overall gaming volume.
The large portion of the risk lies in the hands of the casino.
For example, if I won $50,000 on a slot machine, it’s Slotcash’s coffers that would need to be emptied, with RTG just quietly walking away slightly richer.
With a maximum loss limit of $100 per type of game, I played Blackjack, Baccarat, Video Poker, Roulette and of course the slots
On day one, I lost all $100 to the dealer on Blackjack. Later at night the same day, lost another $100 to roulette, even though at one point I was up $300.
Don’t remember how much I went in the green on Baccarat and Video Poker, but it happily went to the house also.
Eventually and expectedly.
Then on day number two, came the slots.
Played plenty of titles.
Not that they were new to me.
Like I said, I’ve done RTG before.
Doing a dollar a spin, I did hit $5,376 on their Frog Fortunes slot.
Did a few spins on Progressives Aztec’s Millions and Cleopatra’s Gold too.
Funnily it’s not the first time, I’ve managed to hit $5k starting from a $100 stake.
Happened to me many times.
The only thing that’s different is that I got paid only 25% of the time.
Most of those unnamed scam casinos didn’t pay, making up excuses that would make any sane person laugh.
Now came the time to get paid. I requested a $4k pay out
So, I contacted their support through email and their call-back service, which is actually one of the best things I’ve seen so far for an online slots casino, that’s offshore and mostly known for slots.
It’s rare, I tell you.
The guy on the other end, named John, congratulated me, and asked me to wait a few days, while they confirmed the win from RTG.
Then he also asked me to send over the mandatories like the scan of my driver’s license and a utility bill.
This I found to be extraneous, because well, a.) I deposited through Bitcoin and b.) I requested my withdrawal through BTC, and that the win itself had to be confirmed by RTG anyways.
But, it’s also not like it’s something new to me.
LOL, I bet if they made a collective registry of all online offshore slot sites, most casinos would find my ID at at least 80% of these places.
Slotocash did come through in the end
Even though they did try to sort of delay the process as much as they could.
Luckily, my withdrawal request of $4k was well below its weekly $5k and monthly $20k limit.
I wonder how much time, winners of progressive jackpots would have to wait to get paid.
If at all.
Like if one won $500K, it would literally take them over two years to fully settle such an amount.
Forget about the millions.
Perhaps one of the other reasons for me to get paid was that fact that I did not opt for their welcome bonus
I think they’ve this $7,777 bonus promotion on for many years now.
I for one avoid bonuses.
For me they’re just traps for the newbies or habitual gamblers to get themselves entangled in an unbreakable shackle of playthrough requirements.
Not worth the drama.
Not at least for me.
Their website, if you visit is mostly built up on people betting small, with balances not going above $200 or so.
Most wins on their lobby page show up as $40, $32, $17 etc.
This makes me believe that Slotocash isn’t for the big whales.
Even though they might have a few wealthy gamblers on their customer roster.
Slotocash, even with all its restrictions, does want to be an honest joint
But, the liquidity they hold on their books isn’t for the big winners.
Like I, you could test it out for sure, but any big winning would take ages to get paid.
And if you’re happy with that, well, don’t let me stop you.
