Sky Vegas Casino Review

Review last updated - July 2017

OVERVIEW | 5.50/10


Part of the broadcasting giant BSkyB, Sky Vegas Casino was initially founded in 2003, when it only offered 3 games. You can rest assured that Sky Vegas has come a very long way since then, now offering a full casino package alongside associated TV channel.

TRUSTWORTHINESS | 3/10


4 out of our 6 reviewers have accounts with Sky Vegas Casino and have in over a year have had no issues.

There has been an issue with one of their slots games where Sky Vegas claim a malfunction was causing the game to pay out when it shouldn't have. This has led to various claims by players at CasinoMeister that Sky Vegas are threatening legal action against then and other claims that various social network messages have been deleted. We cannot verify of any of these claims however Sky Vegas’s refusal to comment on this issue certainly doesn’t help their credibility. None of these claim were made as official complaints, so while there does seem to be some weight to them, we cannot confirm whether they were anything more that internet moaning or whether any of the affected players did take this issue through the courts.

The Sky Vegas affiliate program - Affiliate Hub - has retroactively enforced new terms and conditions on old affiliates, reducing the revenue levels that were previous promised for the traffic received.

For references see Sky Vegas Player Issues

Due to the design of their website, we are unable to monitor the terms and conditions at Sky Vegas casino.

SkyVegas hold the following gambling licenses :

They do not manage complaints for players directly, instead requiring their operators to appoint a UKGC accredited Alternative Dispute Resolution service.

Slots RTP


Sky Vegas publish the house edge information (RTP) for all of their slots games.

Comp Points


Sky Vegas are currently running a Stakeback promotion that is equivalent to a compl point program. For every £1 wagered you earn 1 point and at the end of the month you will receive £1 bonus for every 200 points you have earned. Different games accrue points at different rates.

  • Slots game £1 = 1 point
  • Instant games £2 = 1 point
  • Table games £10 = 1 point

On accural rate alone this program is 5 time better than the standard Playtech comp point program for slots and only half as good for table games. However as the points can only be redeemed once a month and are turned into a bonus with 25xbonus wagering requirement and the maximum you can earn is £250, this program is a little weaker than industry average.

Closing Thoughts


Sky Vegas are backed by a huge company and use one of the best instant play software platforms on the market. However their treatment of both players and affiliates has been far from stellar.

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.

Other Associations


We believe the below operators to be associated with this operator in some fashion that is not immediately transparent. More information about these connections is usually available in the Trustworthiness section of the review.

There are no associated casinos to display.
