Satin Bingo Review

Satin Bingo is a retro themed bingo site featuring a 1950s-style woman wearing a hairband and cat's eye glasses. The site is operated by Cassava Enterprises Limited and specialises in 90-ball bingo as well as slots and a small selection of casino games.

For some reason, there appears to be a trend among bingo operators to give their websites a retro or nostalgic theme. Whatever their reasons for doing so, it is a move that appears to be paying dividends based on the amount of similar looking sites that are springing up on the web on a regular basis. Add Satin Bingo to a long list that includes such sites as Velvet Bingo plus many others with uncannily similar names, games and themes.

About Satin Bingo

The site’s operators, Cassava Enterprises Limited, are based in Gibraltar. Satin Bingo is also operated within Europe by Virtual Digital Services Ltd. Both of these companies are operated by the 888 group who are a major online gaming company. In the UK, Satin Bingo is licensed by the Great Britain Gaming Commission with its licence held by 888 UK Limited. There is also another name to throw into the mix and that is 8Ball Games Ltd who own the Satin Bingo brand. They are based in Manchester, England.

Smooth Banking

When it comes to making a deposit at Satin Bingo you can choose from credit or debit card including options such as MasterCard and Visa. There is also the option of ewallet service Neteller, PayPal and wire transfer. It is actually surprisingly hard to find out available deposit methods because for some reason Satin Bingo doesn't have a Banking page. However, based on the FAQ that can be found on the site, it is possible to glean the deposit and withdrawal options that are available.

Withdrawals take 48 hours to be processed, after which there will be a wait of 2 to 3 days minimum before funds appear in your account. As for the minimum and maximum deposit and withdrawal amounts, this information is not readily available. Your best bet, if you’d like to find the answer to this – or indeed to any other questions you may have – would be to contact customer service. A freephone UK number and an email address are both provided for this purpose.

Satin’s Promotions

When you sign up at Satin Bingo there is a 400% welcome bonus to be claimed, prefaced by a £5 no deposit bonus. When you deposit £10 on the site, you'll be given an additional £40 to play with. The most you can deposit in order to avail yourself of this promotion is £20, giving you a total of £100 to play with.

There are also other ways to earn a little extra on the side at Satin Bingo. For example, refer a friend to the site and you'll be given £10 of bonus cash when they make their first deposit. In addition, like all sites operated by Cassava Enterprises there are various monthly promotions such as the 2 Million Race. This is a competition that sees 40 winners given two million loyalty points to share between them.

Three Types of Bingo

There are three types of bingo that can be played at Satin Bingo. The most popular version by far is 90-ball bingo in which there are three ways to win, by completing one line, two lines or full house which comprises all three lines. Then there is 75-ball bingo. Originally devised in North America, the game has since made inroads into the UK and become extremely popular. There is only one way to win in this game. Finally, there is High Five bingo in which there are five ways to win and where lines can be completed vertically, horizontally or diagonally.

Satin bingo also has a selection of coverall games that have a guaranteed of between £50 and £500. The biggest games are hosted between 8am and 12am and have a jackpot of up to several thousand pounds to be won. If you're new to bingo, incidentally, Satin Bingo has a complete playing guide that will teach you everything you need to know about playing the beautiful game, from daubing your numbers to selecting which games to enter.

Satin Bingo also hosts a series of chat games. Each of these works just like the regular bingo games, with the difference being that players are encouraged to chat with one another using the live chat facility and to interact with the chat moderators. Satin Bingo employs the services of chat moderators whose job is to keep the conversation flowing and to see to it that players are civil. The value of the prizes that can be won playing chat bingo are relatively small, but the games remain popular nevertheless due to the social element that the chat facility introduces.

Go for the Jackpot

Satin Bingo hosts a number of big jackpot bingo games in which there are thousands of pounds to be won. One of the biggest is the 75-ball progressive jackpot game named Diamonds Are Forever. The value of this keeps on increasing until one lucky player wins the top prize which can reach £3,000 or more. There is also a 90-ball jackpot for a game called House Party which is progressive and there is a High Five progressive jackpot, also referred to as a Swedish jackpot, whose value similarly rises every time it rolls over.

Give Bruce Lee 2 a Go

Satin Bingo is equipped with a good range of video slots, all of which can be played on desktop, tablet or mobile. These include branded games such as Bruce Lee 2 and Wizard of Oz. Themes include fairy tales such as Jack and the Beanstalk. Then there are the generic but still entertaining games such as Irish Luck, Sugar Train and Fluffy Favourites.

Many of Cassava Enterprises’ sites don’t reveal anything about the slots and other games they feature, other than to disclose the same four or five titles every time. While Satin Bingo doesn’t deserve praise for publishing a full list of slots, it certainly improves the user experience and is far more likely to convince visitors to sign up.

Satin Conclusion

Satin Bingo is a perfectly acceptable bingo and slots website, even if it is arriving into a very crowded marketplace with very little to differentiate it from the competition. That being said, the bingo games themselves are agreeable and so are the slots. The welcome bonus is fine, the site is easy to navigate and the whole fun-loving vibe is all fine and dandy. Will operators such as Cassava Enterprises ever run out of names and domains for new bingo sites? Not so long as there are words in the dictionary.

In other words, there is nothing particularly wrong with Satin Bingo even if there is nothing particularly exciting about it either. If you are a UK-based player, particularly if you are a female player, you are likely to find that the general theme and feel of this site will appeal to you and as such will cater to your tastes. For everyone else, Satin Bingo isn't your only option for there is no shortage of other sites out there willing to take your deposit money. Have a search and see what alternatives you can come up with.
