Spin Genie Casino Review

Review last updated - July 2017.

OVERVIEW | 3.22/10

Spin Genie Casino are owned and operated by Bear Group Ltd a subsidiary of Gaming Realms PLC. They are licensed in Alderney and also by the UKGC. The white label casinos Slingo and Pocket Fruity are on the same platform. Spin Genie offer a range of games from: Net Entertainment, IGT, Microgaming, Alchemy Bet, Realsitic, Eyecon and also some proprietary games.  Their logo is rainbow coloured and their site design is fairly plain in nature - the background is a blue sky and there are no additional images. Spin Genie are not responsive to player complaints.

TRUSTWORTHINESS | 1/10

Spin Genie Casino will not engage with discussion of player complaints.

(-2)Spin Genie Casino are Not Recommended at ThePogg as a result of their dormancy clause which we perceive to be predatory in nature. It states that: "We reserve the right to suspend or close your Account if it has been inactive (i.e. you have not logged into the service or interacted with our games in any other way) for more than 6 months. In the event that we have closed your account in line with the provisions of this clause we will endeavour to contact you and return any funds to you for a further 12 months. If this does not prove possible we reserve the right to reclaim such funds." It is absolutely fine to contact players to try and return funds but the casino should never remit the balance to themselves if methods of communication fail. The remaining balance should either be placed with their regulator for holding or donated to a charitable organisation that is clearly named in their Terms and Conditions. Dormancy should bot be used as an excuse to seize player funds.

(-2)Vague and Awkward Rules - Spin Genie count Video Poker as a Table Game which it is certainly not - this could cause issues for players who correctly assign it a different category and therefore do not see it as restricted from bonus wagering.

This group of operators has been involved in the closure of affiliate and player accounts based on the affiliate posting on the same message board as the player. This is a massive over extension of a standard anti-fraud policy and is dangerous to both players and affiliates.

Licensing | 10 / 10

SpinGenie hold the following gambling licenses :

  • United Kingdom Gambling Commission - The UKGC are widely considered to be the most reputable regulators involved in the online gambling market. They do not manage complaints for players directly, instead requiring their operators to appoint a UKGC accredited Alternative Dispute Resolution service. As such the value of this license for players depends largely on the professionalism of the ADR service utilised. SpinGenie currently use IBAS. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.
  • Alderney Gambling Control Commission - The AGCC are one of the stronger regulatory authorities operating within the online gambling market. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.

While Spin Genie Casino is well licensed, we still feel they represents a significant risk to players. Players are far safer with the likes of Casino Nile Review, Reel Island Casino Review, or Temple Nile Casino Review.

Even less cooperative operators who do not have the questionable history of Spin Genie, like Grand Mayfair Casino Review, Handy Luck Casino Review, Luckytap Casino Review, Ruby Loot Casino Review, Toals Casino Review or Whitebet Casino Review, offer players a far safer option.

Other casino operators that are just as dangerous to players are All Cashback Casino Review, All Wins Casino Review, Onespin Casino Review and PH Casino Reviews.

Less serious, but also worth avoiding would be Captain Cooks Casino Review, Lucky 247 Casino Review and Spin Hill Casino Review.

Restricted Countries

Slots RTP

Spin Genie do not provide the R.T.P.s for their slots games - they may after sign-up but this information cannot be accessed prior to sign-up.

Comp Points

Spin Genie do not appear to offer a comp points system for all players. They do offer a V.I.P. program and further details of this are accessible on their site.

Closing Thoughts

Spin Genie are Not Recommended at ThePOGG as a result of their lack of willingness to engage with discussion regarding customer complaints logged at this portal. They also seize funds from accounts that have been inactive for 12 months though they will try to contact players to return funds prior to this action - Dormancy clauses should not be in place to allow such actions at any stage of the process. Though we do Not Recommend this casino players should still be aware that Video Poker is considered a table game at this venue despite the fact that it cannot accurately be assigned this category - it is therefore restricted during bonus play. This casino only appears to offer credit/debit card deposit/withdrawal methods which is not particularly diverse considering the number of options now available at other venues.

Associated By Company

The below operators are run by the same company as this operator. This means that, for well regulated operators, self-exclusions or bonus bans may carry over to these properties. For poorly licensed, or unlicensed operators, it is good to know which other sites are being run by the same company, so you can avoid companies that have mistreated you in the past.
