Welcome Bonus

Naming your casino after a precious metal certainly suggests to potential customers that they’re about to hit a rich vein when it comes to gambling.

But will you strike gold – sorry platinum – on this casino?

If the opening offer is anything to go by then you are certainly heading in the right direction.

This casino welcomes new customers with a matched deposit of up to $800.

Now, that’s a rich opening offer! Platinum Play Casino matches each of your first three deposits by 100% up to a maximum amount.

Deposit	Matched	Maximum
First	100%	$400
Second	100%	$200
Third	100%	$200

However, as always, with any opening offer there are a few caveats.

All players have just seven days from the date their account was opened to complete this offer and the minimum deposit is $10.

The bonus amount needs to be wagered 70x before you can withdraw funds associated with it.

This means if you deposit $100 you’ll start off with $200 in the kitty. But you will need to wager 70x $100 before you cash in. That’s $7,000 in total. Wow!

Wagering on all games except Sic Bio, Craps, Baccarat, Casino Wars & Red Dog will contribute to wagering requirements but not all games contribute the same percentage, so it’s well worth checking the terms and conditions before you spin.

This is an eye-catching offer and, in a world where anything is possible,  worthy of a punt. 

However, the wagering requirement of 70x the bonus match does put it in the higher echelons of wagering when it comes to others in the market – the average is about 40x.

It’s a generous opening offer in terms of matched deposit but a tough ask to wager through.

Betting

This online casino has been around since 2004 and its simple to navigate site combined with 600 PLUS games still has a lot to offer.

It’s certainly pitched its brand at those who want a high rolling casino feel to their play. Platinum Play originally only showcased Microgaming as their sole games provider but since then they’ve added Evolution and NetEnt as games providers

So what lovely delights do they have in store for new players?

What they have is all you’ll probably need for a good time at the casino including Slots, Video Poker, Table Games, Progressive Games, Live Casino and Vegas.

There’s also a casual games selection where you can find bingo, keno and scratchcards.

In the Live Casino section, you can enjoy a taste of live-action with Blackjack, Baccarat, Roulette and Texas Hold’em. There’s also interactive game show style betting in the form of Deal or No Deal and Monopoly Live.

This casino also offers ways to play in a “unique way” which includes: 

• Playing more than one game at a time with their Add Table Feature.
• Back your buddies with Blackjack Bet Behind – which lets you bet on other players’ hands.
• Select Hot Streak Table and track players with the highest percentage of wins.
• Best of all, when the Blackjack and Baccarat tables get full additional tables will auto-generate.

Nice!

The Table Games section is equally packed with the usual suspects but with multiple variations including Single Hand Blackjack, Multi-hand Blackjack and Gold Series Blackjack to name a few.

All in all, its a fine betting experience.

Software & Games

This site is certainly premium platinum when it comes to pokies with a great mix of arcade, reel and video slots.

Compared to some other operators who offer 100 PLUS games providers you might think this site was a bit thin on the ground. But with Micrograming and Evolution, you have two of the biggest names in the industry, so you are certainly not shy on quality here.

Games include Chicago Gold, Silver Seas, Amazing Links Zeus and Atlantis Rising.

And best of all they make a big deal of progressive slots with their Progressive Jackpot counter big and bold displaying the total to date.

There are more than 20 progressive slots to choose from including Mega Moolah, King Cashalot, Jackpot Deuces and Major Millions.

There’s some mouthwatering jackpots here and great games to choose from.

Withdrawal Times, Limit and Methods

There’s a great balance here between traditional banking methods and newer eWallets.

You can withdraw via Bank Transfer, Visa, Maestro or Mastercard. But if it’s a digital wallet you love then there’s also Skrill, Neteller and ecoPayz to choose from.

Not all withdrawal methods allow you to deposit and visa versa. And speed very much varies depending on whether you choose a new or old method.

The maximum withdrawal in any 24 hours is a very healthy $10,000.

Method	Speed	Minimum
Visa	3-5 Days	$50
Mastercard	3-5 Days	$50
Maestro	3-5 Days	$50
iDebit	Instant	$50
Skrill	Instant	$50
Trustly	Instant	$50
ecoPayz	Instant	$50
Bank Transfer	3-5 Days	$50

Deposit Methods

Plenty of ways to deposit here at Platinum Play Casino including trad methods like Visa and Mastercard to newer eWallets.

The minimum deposit for all methods is $10 and the speed, as is always the case, is instant when depositing.

Method	Speed	Minimum
Visa	Instant	$10
Mastercard	Instant	$10
Maestro	Instant	$10
iDebit	Instant	$10
Skrill	Instant	$10
Trustly	Instant	$10
Neteller	Instant	$10

Casino Licenses

This online casino is operated by Digimedia Group who are licenced and regulated in Malata under the licence number MGA/B2C/167/2008.

A licence from Malta is always a hallmark of a good online casino.

A Maltese licence is as thorough as they come and you can rest assured that they’ve committed to abiding by the gambling laws in New Zealand. 

Rewards System and VIP Treatment

Who doesn’t like to be rewarded?

The second you sign up at Platinum Play you’ll be able to reap the exclusive rewards on offer.

Every time you make a cash wager you will clock up Loyalty Points which can be exchanged for bonus credits to spend as you please.

To put it simply, it works like this

•    Cash wagers at Platinum Play Casino earn you Loyalty Points.

•    You can redeem Loyalty Points in predetermined increments whenever you like.

•    Every time you redeem Loyalty Points, you’ll receive Bonus Credits!

•    All your redeemed Loyalty Points will be instantly credited to your Bonus Balance.

•    Once redeemed, you can use your Bonus Credits to play and win (hopefully).

Player Protection

Like any good online casino Platinum Play is committed to responsible gaming and there’s a number of ways they help to keep you safe.

They rightly point out that gambling should be seen as entertainment not a way to make quick cash.

They also advise that you keep track of your time and money when playing.

And if you’re concerned about your gambling you can “take a break” for a minimum of 24 hours or self-exclude for a minimum of six months.

You can also set deposit limits or exclude yourself simply by contacting the customer services team on live chat or via email. 

There’s a handy self-assessment test to check if you think you have a problem as well as links to third party support including Gambling Therapy and GamCare.

Winners

Nothing cheers me up more than reading about some lucky blighter who has won big.

Sadly, there’s no winners section at Platinum Play Casino.

They do, however, have a lovely blog, full of useful casino reviews and interesting articles including What Does It Cost To Build A Casino. Well worth a read if you get the chance!

Blogs are a great way to communicate with players in an online casino environment. Far better than social media.

Although, I just wish they’d put more case studies on them about previous winners.

Conclusion

Like a bar of platinum this is one solid online casino.

Your hosts for this gaming experience are the well established Digimedia Group which have a raft of other titles under their belt including Euro Palace Casino.

Established in 2004 it has a proven pedigree. And even after all this time, it’s still going great guns.

The gaming environment is slick, neat and easy to use. You can find what you want easily enough and with more than 600 games on offer, you’re not going to be short of playability.

They’re powered by the quality brands of NetEnt, Evolution and Micrograming.

However, just because they’re made of platinum doesn’t make them bulletproof on this review.

The welcoming offer comes with a hefty 70x wagering requirement and the withdrawal speeds for traditional banking methods are slow.

On a plus side, they have an entertaining Blog and offer plenty of advice and support in terms of responsible gambling.

And their rewards offer is really simple – the more you play the more you get.

There’s no gimmicks here or cheesy themes. This casino will appeal to those who want to gamble and experience life as a platinum player.
