Best Bet New Casino Review

Best Bet New Casino is not going win any awards for original casino names any time soon, but it does stock an impressive collection of online video slots from a diverse range of software providers, including BetSoft, NetEnt, GameArt, IGT, Amatic and more. The Italian-facing casino belongs to a larger network of online gambling products, including a sports betting site and an online poker site.

One thing that might put punters off this casino brand is the lack of any advertised promotional offers, with no mention of a welcome bonus across any betting platform on the Best Bet New website. Then again, this might appeal to some players out there who just want to enjoy the games for real money prizes without feeling tied down by any wagering requirements. After all, the tagline of this casino is: “the simplest bookmaker”.

The website can be accessed in languages such as English, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, Russian and Albanian. The only explicitly restricted country is the United States.

Little to No Reputation

This casino is an independently operated casino that is based on the Mediterranean island of Malta. Truth be told, there is very little to be found online about this casino or the BestBetNew betting brand, which no other notable gambling outlets under the company's name. As such, it is difficult to determine how this casino has fared with past punters; whether they felt satisfied with the overall service or if they had problems when it came to receiving payments is anyone's guess. Indeed, it may well be the case that this casino just hasn't been marketed very well and that there hasn't been a large number of players at the website.

Another sticky issue with this casino is with regards to its license. The terms and conditions state quite confidently that the band is licensed by the Lotteries and Gaming Authority of Malta with the licensed number C50361.

Of course, the LGA was re-branded to the Malta Gaming Authority in 2015 and when we checked the license number on the current MGA's public database, we couldn't find any match or mention of BestNewBet. This would suggest that the license is out of date and therefore we would recommend that players practise extreme caution if they want to play the games at this casino.

Another aspect of this casino which suggests to us that the website is in dire need of being updated is the fact that the footer lists a number of out-of-date payment options such as Moneybookers and uKash (both of which now operate under Skrill)

No Live Chat

If players want to get in touch with this casino, then they will be limited to using the email address and snail-mail address provided. That means that there is no option to contact the casino directly and immediately with a live chat portal or even a telephone number.

Thankfully, there is a small number of FAQs available which cover aspects of the service such as how to create an account and how to make a deposit.

Decent Slots Selection

In many ways, it is a shame that Best Bet New Casino has a somewhat shaky record when it comes to reputation and credibility. That is because the games lobby is actually very well stocked with a large number of online video slots from a good cross section of the e-gaming software industry on show. There are games from well-known studios such as NetEnt, BetSoft and IGT as well as some slightly less popular game makers such as GameArt, Amatic and Aristocratic, meaning that punters will have plenty of variety when it comes to selecting the games that they want to play.

Some of the most recognisable slots online at Best New Casino are delivered by the likes of BetSoft and NetEnt, both of which are considered amongst the most innovative software companies in the world. BetSoft is renowned for its 3D slot machines which focus on a range of novelty characters and captivating narratives with titles like The Slotfather, Mr. Vegas and The True Sheriff. NetEnt, on the other hand, offer up a variety different design styles with some unique stories in slot machines like Jack Hammer, The Wish Master and Steam Tower. Both game makers provide some classically inclined spins with retro style games like Fruit Zen, Fruit Shop and Fruit Case.

Players will find an interesting array of video slots from GameArt software, which although being one of the lesser known software names at the casino, is far from being one of the worst when it comes to the quality of design. Slot machines like Money Farm, Dragon King and Cleopatra's Jewels are all designed with high definition clarity and 3D graphics, making for some very eye-catching spinning action.

If players really want to indulge in some classic spins, then they should check out what Amatic has to offer. That is because this game maker delivers an assortment of 5-reel retro slot machines such as Bells on Fire, All Ways Fruit, Wild Stars and Hot Seven. Players will find a range of 3-reel slot machines from Rival Gaming, from strictly classic titles like Sevens Bars to novelty games like Surf Paradise.

The slot machine selection at this casino also throws up a few surprises, with a range of not-so-well-known games from Espresso Games. This relatively obscure game maker offers a spread of different themed from the silly Crazy Faces to the scary Vampire.

Plenty of Other Ways to Win

The Best Bet New website is not just about the casino side things – although it does stock a decent range of virtual table games with online roulette, blackjack and baccarat. In fact, the website also offers a sportsbook betting section as well as a range of online poker games with live tournaments courtesy of DBG Poker.

Speaking of live games, patrons of this casino can also take part in some genuinely authentic betting action with a live casino page that offers real casino action with professionally trained croupiers.

Banking in Euros Only

All of the information provided about the banking methods at this casino can be found in the FAQ section of the website. Here visitors to the site will discover that the only currency accepted by the casino is Euros and that the following methods are accepted: Visa, Amex, Postepay, MasterCard, Neteller and Paysafecard.

The casino claims that there are no fees attached to any deposit and that there are no limits attached to the amount of money that a player can pay into their accounts. As for cashing out, the casino states that all withdrawals may take 3 to 7 days to be processed.

No Welcome Bonus

It's not often that we come across a casino which does advertise a welcome bonus reward but that is exactly what we have found at Best Bet New Casino. This doesn't exactly help the casino's cause when you consider the mounting problems at hand – no live chat, no up-to-date license, no reputation to speak of.

No Mobile Slots

While Best Bet New can be accessed from mobile phones and tablet devices, the mobile casino website doesn't offer any slot machines. Instead, players on smartphones and tablets will only be able to place sportsbook wagers and play virtual sports games from 1X2 Gaming.

Not Worth the Risk

Truth be told, with a name like Best Bet New Casino, we didn't really have high hopes for this Italian based casino brand. The truth is that – like its name – the overall service is a bit clumsy, with confusing information about the gambling license, a lack of live support and no casino welcome bonus in sight.

Indeed, there is an impressive range of slot machines online at the casino but, then again, there are plenty of other casinos out there with a similar selection of games and a much more trustworthy reputation.
