Honest Bet99 Casino Review for 2024

Slots, Jackpots & Table Games

Game Variety

Slots make up the bulk of the casino section. However, the number of games available to you depends on the province you are from.

For example, if you are in Ontario and want to play jackpots, you have around 84 games to pick from.

However, if you are from Quebec, Alberta, or any other province, there are 317 jackpots available.

Not just that, you can also choose Progressive Slots (something not available to Ontarians).

I checked with customer support, and they mentioned that this difference pertains to regulations in Ontario.

Furthermore, if you check other casinos like PlayOJO, LeoVegas, etc., you’ll notice the same trend where they have fewer slots and jackpots for Ontarians.

The table below gives you an idea of the difference in available slots across the top casinos in Ontario.

Note: The numbers are true at the time of writing for Ontario and will vary based on factors like new releases and your province. However, PlayOJO remains unrivalled.

The table games section is a tad better on Bet99, with multiple options for Blackjack and Roulette. There’s also Sic Bo and Baccarat.

However, PlayOJO still outperforms them in terms of variety.

Navigating the casino section was pretty hard for me.

While they have some categorization, it does not specifically help me find my favourite games.

For example, I want to play slots with low volatility. However, there’s no filter for that.

Furthermore, there’s no filter to sort games by providers either.

Some helpful categories are Table Games, Megaways, Instant Wins, and Drop & Wins.

You can also choose featured games or check the newly added games in the ‘New’ category.

There’s also a handy search bar you can use to look for any game you want to play.

However, the ‘Table Games’ category also lists many live games, which makes it confusing to find table versions if you do not want to play live games.

This is a bit annoying since Bet99 already has a live casino section where they can show these games.

The one neat feature here was that I could mark games as favourites.

This made returning and playing the games I liked easier without searching for them.

You can also mark games as favourites by clicking on the ‘star’ icon on each game.

While Sports Interaction requires a bit of scrolling, it lists games under various helpful headers, like Top Playtech Games, Top Pragmatic Games, New Releases, etc.

bet365 does not have filters either. However, these small info boxes on all games tell you about their RTP, volatility, etc.

It’s not the ideal solution, but it still gives you some details.

Providers

Well, it is incredibly hard to know about all the providers available on Bet99 due to the lack of filters. However, I want to make it easier for new users to get started.

Hence, I will list a few games I know about and like playing from some of the top providers, like NetEnt, Pragmatic, and Microgaming.

• If you want to play NetEnt games, try Gonzo’s Quest, Starburst, and Narcos.
• For Pragmatic games, there’s Buffalo King Megways, which I enjoy playing.
• Immortal Romance is one of the most popular games from Microgaming.

If you want to play games provided by Playtech, PlayOJO has the games and filters that make them easy to find.

Exclusive Games

Bet99 only has one exclusive game for Ontarian users, which is known as the Bet99 Bonanza.

Users from other provinces can play Bet99 Bonanza and Bet99 Blackjack.

Live Casino Review

Game Variety

One of my favourite live casino games is blackjack. If you love blackjack as well, then Bet99 is the ideal casino for you.

That’s because they have 100+ live blackjack games to choose from. This is the most blackjack games I have come across in the casinos I have tested.

Their baccarat collection was also a standout, with 70+ games available to you.

Even the game show section was the most extensive (trust me, you’ll love it if you have played Monopoly as a kid).

There is also live Poker, Sic-bo, and Andar Bahar.

Compared to the variety available for other games, I was a bit disappointed to see only 19 roulette games.

If you love playing roulette and want a more extensive collection, LeoVegas is the go-to casino with 70+ roulette games to choose from.

User-Friendliness

The live casino categorization helped me much more than what I found in the casino section.

You can quickly jump from blackjack to roulette or game shows.

There are also categories like High Stakes Table, Speed Table, and Drop and Wins that further help you filter out the games.

If you like fast-paced action that does not keep you waiting for results, speed tables include games for you.

If you want to have the chance to win big, try out the high-stakes table.

The one thing I found missing was filters to sort games by providers.

Both PlayOJO and Leovegas have excelled at this, while bet365, Sports Interaction, and Bet99 have yet to.

I also wish Bet99 had created a category for live games like Sic-Bo, Andar Bahar, and Poker.

This would make it easier to find these games.

Currently, they are in the game shows section.

However, this is just my personal opinion and not a significant drawback since these games aren’t as popular as blackjack or roulette.

Providers

Again, Bet99 makes it impossible to know the providers, as there are no filters.

However, I’ll list some games below from top providers like Evolution, Ezugi, and Playtech to make it easier for you.

• Some live casino games by Evolution include Infinite Blackjack, Lightning Blackjack, Baccarat Dice, and Roulette.
• Ezugi games include Salon Privie Blackjack, Roulette, and Baccarat. I also like their No-Commission Baccarat.
• Games from Playtech include Baccarat Squeeze and Speed Roulette.

Exclusive Games

This will be a 0 out of 5 since Bet99 has no exclusive live dealer games.

bet365 has the most exclusive live casino games (16).

PlayOJO and Sports Interaction also have exclusive live games, making them good alternatives to bet365.

Free-to-Play Games

Currently, Bet99 does not offer any free-to-play games.

However, you can enjoy some free-to-play games on PlayOJO.

Here’s me trying out one of the free-to-play slots on PlayOJO.

Mobile Casino

Do you like to play games on your mobile? Bet99 has you covered.

They have a downloadable app for both Android and iOS users.

You can download the Bet99 app from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

The app has all the same games you’d find on the website.

Plus, you can mark your favourite games (pretty intuitive and slick that way).

And it isn’t just me; users on the Apple Store also seem to like the Bet99 app.

Their 4.8/5 rating out of 685 reviews is a testament to that.

If not the app, the mobile website is also responsive and equally easy to use, giving you access to all the casino games anytime, anywhere.

I love that Bet99 takes responsible gambling seriously by allowing you to set limits right when creating your account. And if that is not the case, you can still set deposit or loss limits later. Apart from that, there’s also the option to self-exclude without contacting customer support, making this process faster.

We both appreciate that Bet99 fulfills its responsible gambling obligation, allowing you to set limits while creating an account or later.

And this is without the need to contact customer support.

Check out the video guide below to see how you can set limits within minutes.

You can also opt for self-exclusion or timeout if you spot any red flags.

There’s also a dedicated, responsible gambling page where they list resources to help you spot patterns and get help ASAP.

One thing they need to change is the link to a self-assessment page. Currently, it takes you to the wrong page, where I could not find any questions.

However, there’s one improvement I felt could take this up a notch and set them well apart.

That is adding a tool like PlayOJO’s SafeMate. This allows you to track the time and money you have spent gambling.

Plus, it also gives you personalized tips based on that.

However, this kind of tool is something that’s missing in most sportsbooks and casinos.

Payment Modes

Bet99 has limited payment modes. I found only five deposit and withdrawal modes.

• Interac
• Visa
• MasterCard
• Instant Bank Transfer
• InstaDebit

On the bright side, both my deposits were almost instant (takes about a minute or two).

I used Interac and Instant Bank Transfer.

While my first withdrawal had issues (due to a problem at the payment provider’s end), my second withdrawal of $20 via Instant Bank Transfer took less than 48 hours to hit my account.

I will not dive into detail here as I have already covered Bet99’s deposit and withdrawal in my detailed Bet99 review.

Safety and Security

Bet99 has an iGo license, which makes it 100% legal for Ontarians and safe for users from other provinces.

Furthermore, they also have a GLI certification for fairness.

This certificate from GLI (Gaming Laboratories International) means the games have undergone rigorous testing and meet global standards for fairness.

Furthermore, GLI also reviews quarterly payout percentages for categories like slot games, scratch games, etc.

These tests help them determine whether or not each game payout is within statistically acceptable bounds.

Now, I hadn’t heard about GLI before. Hence, I did some digging to see if they were legit.

As it turns out, they have been certifying online and land-based lottery devices since their inception in 1989.

This makes them even older than eCogra (another independent testing agency that tests games on Betway and bet365).

Plus, I came across their list of achievements over the years while scrolling the site.

Here’s a glimpse of their awards in 2023.

So yes, I believe GLI is a legit tester.

This means you can rest assured that all the games are played with 100% fairness.

My Verdict

I’ll keep this simple.

Bet99 is a good option if you want a combination of a sportsbook and casino.

Their live casino has games from top providers and gives you more variety than bet365 or Sports Interaction for games like blackjack, roulette, baccarat, etc.

They also have a decent number of slots and table games from the top providers.

However, PlayOJO and Leovegas offer greater variety.

Plus, they have filters for providers, volatility, etc., which makes it easier to find games you like or prefer.
