We’re sorry, but InterCasino is no longer in operation. We recommend you check out the following casino instead!
If you read through our reviews, and focus specifically on the year the casinos launched, you will be hard-pressed to find too many that can claim 1996 as the date they first started accepting players.
Think about it, back then we had to use DIAL-UP internet for the most part…seems like an eternity ago.
This review covers one of the initial wave of online casinos to hit the market in the mid-1990s, InterCasino. This brand is well-known and respected around the world, but does it hold up against the plethora of newcomers into the space over the last 21 years? I’ll show you with my review.
About InterCasino
InterCasino was one of the very first casinos to be introduced online back in 1996. It has recently seen an ownership change, and along with that came a new look and feel to the website, which is good because the old site was starting to show its age.
The casino has multiple licenses, which started all the way back in 1997 with a license from Curacao. Since then, they have added licenses from Malta, the UK, and Denmark. All this adds up to a very well-monitored casino which is subject to reviews by multiple jurisdictions.
There is a full bio on the company and the changes it has encountered over 21 years on their site, which you can view on their site.
Who Can Play at InterCasino?
With the licensing that InterCasino has acquired comes a long list of countries they cannot accept real money players from. This is an unfortunate ongoing issue with most online casinos who are licensed by jurisdictions in Europe. The U.S. “Gray market” is too volatile for many operators to touch, and with the changing legislation in many countries, smart casinos like InterCasino are taking the conservative approach to it all. Here is the list of countries that are at the moment not able to play for real money at this casino:
- Afghanistan
- Netherlands Antilles
- Australia
- Bosnia And Herzegovina
- Bangladesh
- Belgium
- Bulgaria
- Belarus
- Canada
- China
- Denmark
- Estonia
- Egypt
- Spain
- France
- United Kingdom (can play on their own ring-fenced site)
- Greenland
- Greece
- Hong Kong
- Hungary
- Israel
- India
- Iraq
- Iran
- Italy
- Jordan
- Mexico
- Malaysia
- Puerto Rico
- Portugal
- Russia
- Singapore
- Slovakia
- Turkey
- United States
- Yugoslavia
- South Africa
Software Suppliers
Way back in the day, when InterCasino launched, there weren’t many options when it came to casino software. In 1996, they were using only Cryptologic for their casino offering. As the years have gone by, many more companies have entered the world of casino software, and InterCasino has taken advantage of being one of the elder statesmen of the industry by adding several partners along the way. These days, you will find software from the following vendors in the casino lobby:
- Net Entertainment
- Cryptologic
- HO Gaming
- OpenBet
- Evolution Gaming
- Electracade
- Microgaming
- IGT
- Amaya Software
- NextGen
- Blueprint Gaming
- Betsoft
- Yggdrasil
- Ainsworth
- Cadillac Jack
- Quickspin
- Play’n GO
- Extreme Live Gaming
- Pragmatic Play
It is important to note that due to restrictions placed on the casino by their software providers, you may not see all the games listed in this review when you look at the casino lobby. No worries, of course; you are still going to find hundreds of selections available via instant play on your PC or mobile browsers.
Pros and Cons
PROS
- Jackpots
- So. Many. Slots.
Cons
- Recent Ownership Change
- Weak Video Poker offering
Jackpots
While there are a few of the larger progressive jackpots missing from the InterCasino lobby, that shouldn’t stop you from giving them a try. Really, any progressive jackpot win, even if it is only $100,000, is still a nice chunk of change to receive for spinning some digital reels. I like that there are many games to choose from and that a few of the Table Games also feature jackpots.
So. Many. Slots.
If you are a slots player, you are going to be stunned by the sheer volume of titles. At last count, it was approaching 500 in total. This includes the jackpot games mentioned above as well as so many other entertaining slot machines. Have at it, slots players! This casino is definitely built with you in mind.
Recent Ownership Change
I am only including this in the bad stuff because I do not have enough recent facts about the casino to determine if the sale of the company has taken away all the expertise inside the organization. With a casino that has been around for 20 years, you would expect that they have seen pretty much everything; I am hopeful that knowledge was transferred to the new owners in some form. What I want to see is the continuation of not just the branding, but the work behind the brand that has made it one of the longest-standing online casinos in the world.
Weak Video Poker offering
Given the number of software providers they have at their disposal, I was shocked to see so few video poker options in the casino. I love the game, so it is particularly disappointing to me, and I am hopeful that with some pushing they will add more variants than the ones I will outline a little later on.
Game Selection
Table Games
As I mentioned earlier, with so many software suppliers, you are going to get the chance to see a lot of different looking tables of the same game when you play at InterCasino. Of course, not every table will be available in your country of residence, but you will definitely be covered when it comes to the full suite of games that you have to choose from. Here are the games you will find in the Table Games area of the site:

Video Poker
Again, this was mentioned in the Bad Stuff section so I won’t dwell on it again here. Here are the limited video poker options for you at InterCasino:
- All American
- Joker Poker
- Deuces Wild
- Jacks or Better
Slot Machines
Here is the area of the casino where you will see the most diversity as a result of the multiple software partners. Thankfully, InterCasino determined that they didn’t need to use every slot machine provided by their vendors, or else the lobby would be unmanageable. Instead, what you will find is a well laid out lobby featuring some of the best content that each provider has to offer; from the 3D slots games of Betsoft to the licensed content games of Microgaming and Net Entertainment.

Promotions
The InterCasino marketing team has streamlined their promotions area of the website, focusing on only a couple of promotions for you. I have to assume they are directing the remainder of their marketing at players via email, knowing at that stage how best to target them more efficiently. I will fill you in on what is available currently at their casino:
No Deposit Package
This one is straightforward and gives you a little nudge just to create your account. When you fill out all the details, you will be rewarded with 10 Free Spins on the Starburst slot, which continues to be one of the most popular slots online.
Welcome Package
Once you get your feet wet with the 10 Free Spins, the casino offers you 100 more spins spread across different machines, along with a 100% Match Bonus to $300. Here is how the Free Spins are distributed:
- Get 20 free spins on ‘Wizard of Gems’ upon making a Minimum €25.00 deposit.
- Get 20 free spins on ‘Spinata Grande’ 3 days after your first deposit.
- Get 20 free spins on ‘Spin Party’ 6 days after your first deposit.
- Get 20 free spins on ‘Esqueleto Explosivo’ 9 days after your first deposit.
- Get 20 free spins on ‘Twin Spin’ 12 days after your first deposit.
I like the fact that they spread this out across several days; this gives it more impact rather than having them all gone in a matter of minutes. In addition to all that, you also receive two more 100% Match Bonuses to a max of $300 on your second and third deposits, bringing the total bonus you could receive all the way up to $900.
Ongoing Promotions
At the time of writing this review, there were no other promotions on the go for players at InterCasino (at least none that were being promoted on their website). However, the casino does want you to see what promotions they have run in the past; I assume that is to convince you that new promos like them could be coming soon.
Banking
With a limited number of countries that have access to the casino and their games, it makes payment processing a lot easier for a site like this one. There is no need to have dozens of options that really only work for one or two markets; the payment methods that InterCasino offers clearly cover the majority of their players. Make sure to check the cashier to find out which are the available methods in your own country.
Deposit Options
- Wire Transfer
- MasterCard
- Neteller
- Paysafecard
- Visa Debit
- Visa Electron
- Visa
- Entropay
- Skrill
- ECash Direct
- PayPal
Withdrawal Options
- Bank Wire
- Neteller
- Visa Electron
- Visa
- Skrill
- ECash Direct
Comp Program
Although I have found some evidence of a Comp Program by doing some research on other sites online, I cannot find any information on the program within the confines of the InterCasino website. That discourages me a little bit, as having a clearly stated comp program allows players to add those bonuses into their ROI for playing with the casino. Perhaps there is a program that is just not being advertised properly on the site; I will continue investigating.
VIP Program
The good news is that there is some information about the InterVIP program on their website. The bad news? Well, there isn’t much information on it at all. Basically, the site tells you how valuable and desirable it is to be a VIP at their casino, but doesn’t tell you how you can qualify. They claim it is by “invitation” only; read into that you are probably betting large sums or losing a lot to be eligible.
When you become a VIP, the casino promises you will have a dedicated VIP manager (always a nice touch) as well as invites to exclusive events only designed for the elite players at the casino. There is definitely an impressive list of events that the company has delivered on their website, from trips to the US Open in New York to VIP events around London; you can see all the details on their VIP page.
While I am not a big fan of invite-only VIP programs, those who are in the program rave about it, so you may as well request an invitation and tell them how big a player you plan to be!
Customer Service
Another thing I like to see when I am visiting an online casino website are clear links to be able to contact the customer support team. On the bottom of every page are links for you to reach the casino either by Live Chat (the option I always recommend to my readers) and email (which is better for more complicated issues that require a longer explanation).
When you click on the Support Center link, you will also see guides to playing the different games, the link to the Terms and Conditions of the site, and a comprehensive FAQ section, which hopefully will answer most of your questions before you even need to go any further.
Would I Play at InterCasino?
I would definitely recommend that players give this casino a try. The game selection alone is worth throwing down some money; all the different Table Games and Slots variants are sure to keep you entertained for hours. Now, they are definitely lacking in some areas (ongoing promotions, video poker variants, Comp Program details) but overall, they have a great look and feel to their website, and their Welcome Offer is very generous.
If you are a player already at InterCasino or plan to play there in the future, please send us your feedback so we can incorporate it into our future updates to the review.
