Royal Vegas

Welcome bonus

The sign-up bonus at Royal Vegas is a highly competitive one that is relatively straightforward to unlock for players who want to open their account with and maintain a healthy-size bankroll. It’s a three-tier match bonus that is potentially worth up to $1200:

• 1^st deposit – 100% match, up to $250
• 2^nd deposit – 25% match, up to $200
• 3^rd deposit – 50% match, up to $750

Receiving the full bonus therefore requires three deposits totaling $2,550 (to be made within 14 days of the account being opened), which would produce a total bankroll of $3,750 and make an overall match bonus of just over 47%, which is one of the best available for deposits of this size.

There is playthrough requirement of 30x, which is fairly standard, with different games contributing to this in varying amounts:

• online pokies – 100%
• keno and scratch card games – 100%
• roulette, video poker, craps, baccarat and blackjack (except Classic Blackjack) – 10%
• Classic Blackjack and All Aces video poker – 2%

For New Zealand online pokies players the welcome bonus, combined with the 100% contribution of pokies to the playthrough requirement, makes Royal Vegas a strong choice, although the low contribution of roulette and blackjack means that better bonus options are available for regular players of these games.

Promotions

There are good weekly and monthly promotions that offer big rewards for regular players at Royal Vegas. Players are notified about these via email, and they include prizes such as luxury cruises, trips to Las Vegas, beach resort holidays and lucky draws with cash prizes, while they also run special promotions during themed weeks (such as Halloween). The Refer a Friend Bonus also means that you can pick up $50 each time a friend that you recommend signs up, while the Loyalty Rewards bonus scheme earns you bonus points that can be converted into credits every time you play, and which aren’t subject to a playthrough requirement.

Software

Royal Vegas uses Microgaming software renowned for being state of the art and totally secure. The casino is available in both download and no download flash versions for your computer,  iPhone, iPad, Android phones and tablets. Royal Vegas is also offered in multiple languages for gamers worldwide.

Games

Royal Vegas has over 500 online casino games from the Microgaming viper game library There’s a fantastic variety of pokies, blackjack, roulette, poker, video poker, baccarat, craps as well as huge jackpots from progressives favorites such as Major Millions and King Cashalot which keep on increasing until someone wins. The video pokies were my favorite with 5, 20 and 40 payline games and detailed graphics and characters.

Registration Process

The biggest advantage of playing through your browser is that there is no requirement to download the casino software: To register an account:
Step 1: Choose the ‘Sign up and play online’ option
Step 2: Fill out the simple registration form.

Step 3: Once you have completed the registration form, your account details and password will appear – make sure to store this in a safe place.

Step 4: Make your first deposit and claim your free $1,200 bonus

Note: You might need to update the latest version of Adobe Flash Player to play from your browser.

Banking

Most of the methods available at Royal Vegas allow players to make deposits and withdrawals in NZD, with the exception of PayPal (AUD is available). Visa and Mastercard credit and debit cards can be used, as can pre-paid vouchers such as uKash, although Royal Vegas actively encourages the use of e-wallets.

For this reason, they offer new players a 10% match bonus (in addition to the sign-up bonus) when players make an initial deposit using either Skrill, Neteller, Click2Pay, Entropay or ClickandBuy. Deposits and withdrawals can also be made via direct bank transfer, although this is probably the slowest of all available methods and so it is recommended that you instead opt for POLi, an Australian online payment system.
