Review of Betfair Casino
Betfair has always been best known for the Betfair Betting Exchange, but it also offers a full range of other betting services such as casino, poker and bingo. The casino offering at Betfair presents players with a wide choice of games from many different software providers, and players can choose to download and install software from Playtech, or play the other games in their browser window (or both). Players with existing sports betting or poker accounts with Betfair do not have to bother registering and can log in at Betfair Casino immediately.
Software and game selection
The layout of Betfair's casino website is on par with the sportsbook - it is navigable, uncluttered, and fairly easy on the eyes. You can either download the Playtech powered casino software, or play a selection of popular games from other suppliers such as IGT, OpenBet, and WMS Gaming in your browser window. These in-browser games are segregated into different tabbed sections on the website, namely the Arcade and Vegas Slots sections. This organisation of the games can be a tad annoying when you find yourself repeatedly switching sections to find a game. There is no global search function that allows you to find a game irrespective of which section it has been placed in, which can make finding a specific game more difficult than it needs to be.
The Playtech casino has more than 200 games including baccarat, poker, blackjack, roulette, craps, 3 and 5 reels slots, and almost all of your other favourite games - card games, table games and even video games. In addition there are a full complement of Playtech progressive jackpots on offer here. These jackpots are pooled between most casinos that run Playtech software and several have been won in the past for multi-million pound sums.
Support and banking
As expected of a company the size of Betfair, the casino provides first class 24/7 customer support via email, phone, live text chat, and you can even contact support via Twitter if you prefer. There are a multitude of money transfer options available, including many localised services that are specific to the country you live in. In short, you should have no problems getting your money into and out of the Betfair system.
In my experience, withdrawals at Betfair are paid within 24-48 hours, which is good but not outstanding. An initial identity verification process is required after signing up, and it must be completed before you can make a withdrawal.
Security, fairness and responsible gambling
Betfair's casino is licensed and regulated by the Malta Gaming Authority, a mid-tier European jurisdiction. Every connection that you make with the website is secured via the use of SSL encrypted connections. This grants your browsing, gameplay, and financial transactions both privacy and security.
The software providers that supply their games to Betfair are independently audited to ensure that the random number generators used in their games are fair. However it does not publish any payout audits, nor does it reveal the theoretical RTP numbers for any of its games, unless said numbers are included in the game's paytable (the majority are not).
Responsible gambling is handled professionally at this casino. You are able to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits in the account management part of the website. You are also able to do the same to limit losses, along with requesting a cooling off or timeout period and/or a complete self exclusion.
Conclusion
Betfair Casino is a solid offering backed by a financially successful and professionally managed company. There is a wide choice of games from some of the industry's best game developers on the website, and you have the option of betting on the world's best sports betting exchange as well.

Betfair casino is probably one of the first casinos I joined many years ago. For me they always seemed like a trustworthy brand and luckily enough I can say that my experience there over the years has only been smooth. I've made several deposits there and won a few times (not a lot but just a 100eur here and there) and my withdrawals were always processed without any issues once KYC check was done. I would usually get my winnings within 3/ 4 days to my card. I don't play there much anymore as I wasn't a huge fan of their bonus offers and I felt like their casino lobby could be more user-friendly. That being said, I haven't had any reasons to not recommend them.

I have only negatives for Betfair.
There office was based where I lived about 5 mins away. They were always having issues with bonuses working over there automated system and they blocked my account after a big win, using the term and condition that I had a secondary account. Before joining and depositin I did enquire and ask was an account in my name already on file and if so can I have the login I was told no. I then made the deposit of 20eur won 450 and after requesting the withdrawal the account was locked and closed with that term as the quote for reasoning which I found baffling

i just playing playtech, other game is restrite from my country. i can't see any netent, wms or igt on betfair. so i tried on other site
😀
Hi, there, what games did you play in Betfair? I play here quite often, so I wonder which games paid out poorly 🙂
last year i made 3x big deposits bet fair casino, im very badluck. I was not lucky while playing here.
I assure myself to stoped playing and try for another sites before I became a sacrifice

Betfair Casino is a cult place for every real players, and a real gold mine for those who know what they are doing. The site is beautiful design, and a casino and all other sections seem brilliant at first sight. At Betfair Casino I made over 10 Deposit this year and I paid 6 times the money to Neteller. Because of all this, your heroes need not wait because the slot titles are numerous. Moderation in gains and losses is key to getting out of big losses, but not always so if you have experienced in your game, and you just do not have that day. For me, Betfair next Bet365 Vegas one of the best casino to be built in the last 15 years. Rating 5/5!!!

Betfair casino has more gaming then some land casinos. It's very big and popular gambling site. If you like diversity of games Betfair should be your choise. The casino is looking good and fair, like the name claims it. Their costumers support is awesome, very quick and helpful replies and payouts were made fast enough for me. Don't see the reason why I should rate them with less than 5 stars. I can recommend this casino.

Betfair is one of the most popular gambling websites and especially between sports lovers. It's very famous sports bookie and exactly because of that reason i have registered with them. But i found out that they have great casino as well. So i made some deposits here without bonuses. But i have never been lucky enough here. So never asked for withdrawal. But i truly believe that they are paying because it's one of the biggest online gambling shark:)
But i will not give them 5 stars because many of their offers are just for UK players and offers for other countries are strange enough and not very attractive.

I registered on betfair and made my first deposit into their casino, I think I paid € 50, and after they gave me 200% of my role, I immediately started with 150 €. Before I requested payment, I finished WR of 37X and money in my bank account was available for only 48 hours. If you opt for the standard bonus, for those new users have more bonus as follows: Mid-Roller bonus 200% up to € 300 and High-Roller bonus of 100% up to € 200. For details of the conditions and selection of bonuses you can find on their site under the casino promotions. From me all the credit for this casino, although I more than betting on the roulette and slot machines. Betfair rating 10/10

Betfair,
Amazing and very big casino, with supermuch different Gaming Providers, all my favorite games are provided by them, except for Netent, but i appreciate also more other Gaming providers because of those special bonus rounds on different games. oke let's start with the big set-up of there different sections promoted by betfair, sports,casino,arcade,games,exchange and so on, it's really big and everything you would like to try or play you can always do it on betfair! they are promoting different promotion's per section, i mostly check casino promotion's! the promo i see the most is play 10 euro and get 10 euro , or risk free roulette etc, all have quite easy rules and with low money deposit you can grab also something nice for yourself! only some promotions are bit tight, playing 100 euro on slots and get only 25 spins for me this is too high and not worth it but that's my opinion. there live chat is in my opinion very hard to find, you have to search for them in contact us page, and scroll down and click different things! would be way more easy if there's just a pop up thing you can click on too speak with an agent, maybe an improvement they can make! at last, there time of processing withdrawals is not so fast for me personally average 12 hours, if i play i like to receive my money fast, well it's not on betfair, but sometimes i don't have problems with it, also which i mentioned is there huge variety in different payment methods very good! a nice casino to try!

Hello,
I made one more deposit and a successful withdrawal, yesterday.
It happened to be made almost at same time with my previous withdrawal the day before yesterday.
And, I got it in 12 hours, too.
So, I suppose that they should have a kind of internal policy to process the payout within 12 hours, or so 🙂
Maybe, I was just lucky that there were not many withdrawal requests at the moment when I made mine.
Anyway, this is one of extraordinarily speedy payouts 🙂
Good Luck 🙂

I have been playing in this casino with a few of small deposits.
And, yesterday, I finally withdrew some winnings (Very small 🙂 )
I made two withdrawal requests one after the other within an hour and half or so (Skrill and Neteller).
It is a little difficult to find the exact time log.
But, the first withdrawal arrived into my Skrill account within slightly less than 12 hours, as I remember.
And the second one came into my Neteller account in one hour and half later.
They provide very speedy payment service.
This is a very good casino, as rated 🙂
P.S.
CL-Ed, they provide very nice Live Chat Service, too. Maybe, when you wrote up this review, the Live Chat service was not installed. They are very responsive for both Live Chat and emails, as I have experienced 🙂

Here's my review about this casino , I claimed the slot bonus of 200% , used my instadebit to deposit and had no problem getting the bonus , games were great but the downloaded casino lacked some of the games that are on the flash casino , not good . I found the games good , support staff were great , very friendly and helpful , I didn't have to wait long to chat ..drawback 1 ... is that it's not available on the downloaded casino so I had to go to the flash ,, if it is on the downloaded version I couldn't find it haha ... drawback 2..is that with all the playtech casinos I've played at and deposited with my instadebit I could also withdraw using the same method , not here and that sucks . Here in Canada there are very few ewallet means that you can use to do a withdrawal , no skrill , netteller so I like using my instadebit both for depositing and withdrawals . I hope they can fix that so there isn't such a hassle withdrawing . I had to try there bank transfer and I hope it works . Over all I would give this casino a 4 stars ..great casino all round 🙂 except the withdraw problems !!!

Betfair casino is full gaming website, usually online casinos even great one have only casino games, and nothing else, but betfair have sportsbook, trading, poker, horse racings, and many other things. Also it is very big company which is well known, so for me it is always very easy to play in this casino, i am not fear that i will not get paid, or anything will goes bad. Also strange, but i am tryed most products that betfair had, and i do not had any troubles with anything, poker / sportsbook / other products works perfect, and also very good fact that i never contact support in this casino. Bonuses and promotions are different at different products, and this is just add more fun to be a part of such big brand like betfair. I will play at this casino again and again, because everything perfect, usual time to withdrew on skrill is about 8-10 hours. Perfect place for everyone, poker players, betting experts, just casino players like me. Betfair really deserved to be listed high like it listed, and i think it is one of the most safe online casino to date, probably even more safe than guts.

Betfair casino have really solid reputation and it is probably most known online casino. Of course it has a lot of pluses, so let's see it!
+ Good games collection. IGT, PT, few others. But not only casino games, but also table games, live gaming, and different mini games like scratch cards. Also site offer sportsbook, i tried it many times and have good experience. And also poker services provided to players from this casino.
+ Good CS. Not know why here is written that casino did not have live chat, but i am sure casino have it. I tried it many times, and CS here is definetely strong point in casino, and i can easy add it as plus.
+ Withdrawals. In this casino withdrawals never take long, less than 6 hours and money always appear in ewallet. For card withdrawals it is takes a bit longer of course. KYC also was passed very easy, just with ID and nothing else.
+ Bonuses and promotions. There is a lot of ongoing promotions for all services at betfair, and many free chip offers, or just cash prizes, and also i like to get cashback offers in this casino.
I can't remember any minuses for this casino, and of course this is good.
Final mark:
Awesome online casino, which can be nominated for title 'best online casino'.

Betfair casino it is a very good brand that was have playtech games for me and i was able to play this casino in past before moving to this bulgaria which is restricted to play playtech software. I not know why everything is so bad here but it is sad that i am not able to play few great playtech casinos few years already and i hope one day i can come back. Casino allow to download games on personal computer that is very good thing and i say this many times already. Betfair casino usually give me good bonuses and send good promotions in past and also casino verify me very easy i upload my pasport in site and after 1 hour get email that i verify and everything is good really great speed and i was really surprised. Payout never take for me more than 1 day and it is on any day even at sunday casino was able to pay very fast without waiting to monday. Live chat working all day and i really like it because few times i was need to ask casino people for advice and they was able to help me. That was one of the favorite for me place when i was able to play it.

So, this site is very complex to make review on, so I will specialize only on Casino (mainly Slots) section and things around that 🙂
I like this casino. I like it despite it's sometimes not absolutely 100% skilled and qualified live chat support representatives (at least they make me feel this a bit), I like it despite it has mostly deposit promotions (but yes, sometimes customer gets surprised with gratis free spins, I always wonder, if that will ruin them, or whatever... ). It has quite well welcome promotions and for depositors also regular surprises, and despite its casino (and not only that) section is quite extensive in variety of offered gambling satisfaction, nobody can unnotice, that they are primarily SPORTS betting and exchange based - it glows from everywhere, beginning with pages design and ending with promotions and bonuses themes. That is a little minus for me, but this is just my personal opinion.
As said above, te variety of software offering and (slot) games playable here is told to be really huge, but its not the only thing that will be a random player interested in - Betfair is showing off also a handful of interesting and original gambling possibilities, which are really worth trying, or at least checking what's it about - Exchange games and Pools Betting, both were recently added into casino, so there is surely some kind of freshness warranty, which (but not only which) makes this casino really a MUST for everyone that reads about Betfair for the first time 🙂

Hi, i hope you will enjoy my review of betfair casino. Betfair casino is very old casino which was known even 10 years ago or more, and that means that it is very reputable. I start playing at this casino probably 5 years ago, and i am still sometimes make deposits there. They always had some interesting promotions in which you can get cashback, free money, or just interesting prizes. Also they provide nice games from playtech and WMS, and i like both , playtech not so much, but WMS can be very interesting when it hot. But unfortunately it more often cold for me, than cold. All my withdrawals from betfair processed with 12 hours, and also very nice thing that i am verified 5 years ago only for sending my ID, and since then they never disturb me with sending something more. Payments methods nice, support cool and proffesional, email replies fast. Also they had poker and betting, but i never used it, because i did not like poker and betting, it is not so interesting like betting. Betfair is very good casino and you should try it. Their sign up bonuses is very generous and nice, so do not miss opportunity to try such great casino!
Hello. I start playing at betfair long time ago, but few months ago they run a much more slots on their site, so of course i can not miss this opportunity to try them. Also their reputation is beyound the skyies and of course when play in this casino i am always sure thats nothing bad will happen. I made there probably 10 deposits in 2013, and got 3 withdrawals, not big, but come on, withdrawal is always a plesure for players!
Support: They good, its only thing i can told u because does not speak with them a lot.
Withdrawals: All withdrawals to my ewallet paid in 24h time frime any day. Verification also easy, u can send your documents at any time for verification. I recommend to do this in the time u register, so if u win u get your money soon. Verification tooks also under 24 hours time frame.
Software: Site work a bit slow for me, but probably this is not valid reason to complain. Of course i will not take a start from them for this. Also a lot of slots is a very big plus.
One more 5 stars casino, i quite like betfair casino and recommend it to you!
Ive been trying to open account there for a while,but i would always get some error not allowing me to do so.Ive tried from 4 different PCs with no success.Finally i was able to register using mobile phone 🙂. After, i had no problem with logging and playing from my PC.
I played in euros, so i got €70 bonus on €70 deposit.At first i played 3x€1 hands, but since casino software was so slow( and me not being in grinding mood),i started playing €5 a hand and eventually 3x€5 hands. was €181 at highest , and €35 at lowest, but ended up with nice €35 profit for couple of hours of clicking..
Now Betfair will ask you to verify your age in two ways.By sending them a scanned ID or by depositing small amount from your credit card.After that youll be allowed to make a withdrawal.I got my money in less then 24h to my MB account.
Now they may also ask you to provide additional documents(ID,credit card statement and utility bill).
