Megaways VIP Casino Review

Megaways VIP is chasing a niche

At the risk of stating the obvious, don’t come to this casino if you don’t want to play Megaways slots. They’re the entire reason that Megaways VIP exists. There’s no pretension here – the casino doesn’t pretend to be especially classy or original. It doesn’t want that market. It’s after players who love this genre of slots, and are thrilled by volatility instead of petrified by it. The whole homepage is devoted to nothing but Megaways slots, although it does at least break it up into sub-genres like Book Of, Jackpot, Hold and Wins and more. There are still other categories here – live dealer games, table games, scratchcards, and even bingo – but they’re a sideshow, and they’re treated as such. The Megaways slots are and always will be the main attraction.

The bonuses could be better

We touched on this a moment ago. We have no issue with how the Megaways VIP welcome bonus is communicated. We do, however, have some issues with the way it’s priced. The three-stage promotion sounds generous at first, but that nasty x40 wagering requirement that comes with it means you’re going to be very hard-pressed to ever turn it into cash. The same wagering requirement applies to all of the casino bonuses at this site, so it’s not even like things get better once you’ve used the bonus up. Megaways VIP Casino might have “VIP” in its name, but is imposing wagering requirements this high really giving players the VIP treatment? We don’t think so.

There’s life beyond Megaways

Given the name, Megaways VIP could easily have been a one-dimensional casino site. We’re pleased to report that it isn’t. Yes, the Megaways slots pile high, but they come from a variety of respected studios including Amigo Gaming, Mr Slotty, Booongo, 1Spin4Win, Funta Gaming, and others we could name if we chose to go on. That’s quite a broad lobby, and that’s just the slots we’re talking about. The live dealer section covers a lot of ground, there are instant-win scratchcards to play with, and even a bingo selection, which is a very unusual thing to see at an international casino brand. What could have been a niche destination is actually quite a broad church.

The lack of theme doesn’t hurt the casino

Given the lack of a clear visual identity beyond “we have lots of Megaways slots,” this casino could easily have felt cold and dull. It doesn’t. It doesn’t feel glamorous either, but it’s easy enough on the eye. It also rewards players who take the time to look around properly. Beyond the welcome promotion, Megaways VIP offers cashback, tournaments, daily bonuses and more. This isn’t a casino that’s happy for people to come, make one deposit and then go away again. It wants you to stay, and if you do, it’ll reward you with status perks and other loyalty bonuses. We’ve seen bigger and better ones elsewhere, sure, but there’s still a nice little retention engine here.

Banking is wide-ranging but a little mysterious

You shouldn’t have a problem finding a way to get money into or out of Megaways VIP. The casino will let you conduct transactions using your Visa or Mastercard debit card, Skrill, Revolut, bank transfer, and pretty much the full spread of current popular crypto coins and tokens. You’re allowed to withdraw up to £2500 per day, £5000 per week, or £10,000 per month. That’s all within the parameters of what we’d expect to see from a casino like this. What we couldn’t find anywhere on the Megaways VIP website, though, is a timetable for withdrawal processing, and we really hate not knowing when we’re likely to get our money.
