Design & Layout

PartyCasino is one of the most established online casino brands available to players in the UK having first launched as Starluck Casino back in 1997.

In 2006, Starluck Casino was rebranded as PartyCasino and so began its journey towards the modern, sleek and stylish online casino you can play at today.

Using a distinct pink, purple and white colour scheme, PartyCasino has a sense of sophistication and luxury. This is combined with a simple design to offer an easy to explore wagering environment.

At the top of the game lobby you find the main tabs that help you move around. This includes Casino, Offers, Cashback and VIP as well as icons for messages, your account and the cashier.

Below this there are additional tabs for the different types of casino games offered including Jackpot Slots, Slots, New, Vegas, Live Casino, Table Games, Instant Win and Video Poker.

The game lobby is smartly organised in a standard grid format with titles displayed using illustrations. Hover your mouse over the icon to play the game or add it to your favourites.

On opening a game, you will enter a window that boasts some nice little design features that really improve your playing experience.

This includes a banner at the side with recommendations for similar games, as well as a quick deposit tool that allows you to top up your account without leaving the game.

During our PartyCasino review we found that all of this comes together to create a modern and stylish online casino that will appeal to a wide range of players.

Game Lobby & Portfolio

PartyCasino has gone to great lengths to offers its players a portfolio packed with a wide range of online casino games from slots to table games via live dealer and scratch cards.

All told, there are more than 500 games to choose from with all of the big-name providers, as well as smaller studios starting to make a name for themselves, represented.

During our PartyCasino review we were able to access games from the likes of Playtech, Microgaming, NetEnt, Big Time Gaming, Play’n GO, Pragmatic Play, Yggdrasil Gaming, Quickspin and Blueprint Gaming.

If you like to play slots from traditional suppliers, PartyCasino also stocks games from Scientific Games, IGT, Barcrest and more.

As well as a great range of video slots, PartyCasino also offers a dedicated jackpot slots lobby which includes “Must Pay” games from Red Tiger Gaming. Titles in this category include Arcade Bomb, Totem Lightning, Dragon’s Luck and Devil’s Number.

In addition to this, you can also play big-name progressives such as Hall of Gods, Age of the Gods, Road Hogs and Cosmic Fortune. Mega Fortune and Mega Moolah are not offered, however.

If you like to mix slots play with table games then you have plenty to go at with more than 50 roulette, blackjack and baccarat variants available.

When it comes to live dealer, PartyCasino has created a dedicated lobby packed with 50+ games across roulette, blackjack, poker, baccarat and live money wheel. For the latter, there is even a Monopoly variant.

If that wasn’t enough, you can also play a huge number of instant win and Slingo games such as Slingo Fortunes, Crazy Chicken Extreme, King Kong Cash Scratch Card and 7 Up.

Mobile Play

If you like to play online casino from your smartphone or tablet device, then PartyCasino is the right choice for you as it offers one of the best mobile casino experiences out there.

You can access the PartyCasino mobile casino via a dedicated app available for those using Apple or Android operating systems or via in-browser.

All things considered, PartyCasino is among the top mobile casinos and holds company with the likes of LeoVegas.

APP:

The PartyCasino app has embraced the same design ethos as the desktop site, making use of the bold and bright pink, purple and white brand colours.

The game lobby is super simple to navigate with a banner across the top listing the various types of game available – Jackpot Slots, New, Slots, Vegas, Live Casino, Instant Win, etc.

The lobbies are laid out in a grid format with each title represented by a graphic. They are spilt into sections – Trending Now, Recently Added, etc – which you can swipe through.

At the bottom of the app window is another menu bar where you will find icons for the “Main Menu”, “My Offers”, “Cashback” and “Search”.

While we were reviewing, games loaded quickly and played without lag. Most games can be played in both portrait and landscape mode, which is particularly useful if playing on the move.

All of the same functionality found on the desktop casino is found on mobile, including live chat customer support, cashback and personalised offers and promotions. FaceID log-in is also offered.

BROWSER:

If you cannot download apps to your smartphone or tablet device, you can still enjoy PartyCasino through any web browser, including Google, Safari, Firefox, Windows and more.

On entering the PartyCasino mobile casino, you will find the same design, games and functionality as you would on desktop and on the mobile app.

During our PartyCasino review, we found the browser mobile casino experience to feel a little less polished and you cannot use FaceID log-in. Other than that, everything else is the same.

Bonuses & Promotions

PartyCasino offers a very simple welcome bonus of 50 free spins.

Free spins can be used on NetEnt’s Starburst and winnings are subject to a x10 wagering requirement before they can be withdrawn as cash. This must be completed within 24 hours.

The minimum deposit required to unlock the free spins bonus is £10 but it is not available to those depositing via Entropay, Neteller or Skrill.

In addition to its welcome offer, PartyCasino runs regular promotions for players. They fall into several categories – Offers, Promotions, Free spins and Bonuses.

These are all tailored to you based on your wagering activity and playing habits, and include things like prize draws, daily spins on a prize wheel and leaderboards.

You can access your personalised promotions by clicking the Offers tab at the top of the homepage.

Loyalty Scheme

PartyCasino’s loyalty programme is based around a cashback scheme that players opt-in to. It sees you earn cash on all your wagering activity, whether you win or lose.

The percentage of cashback earned depends on the type of casino game you play:

• Jackpot slots – 0.50%

• Slots – 0.25%

• Roulette – 0.10%

• All other games – 0.05%

To earn cashback on your wagering activity you must first opt-in to the scheme. You can do this from your player account area.

You can withdraw your cashback balance at any time, so long as you have accumulated a minimum of £1.

You can then withdraw it into your wagering wallet if you want to boost your betting balance, or withdraw it as cash so long as you can clear the minimum withdrawal limit.

There are no wagering requirements attached to the cashback you earn, but it is worth pointing out that if you do not wager for a period of 90 days then your cashback balance will be forfeited.

PartyCasino’s cashback scheme may not be as innovative as some online casino operators, but if you play regularly then your balance will fill up over time. During our PartyCasino review we saw our balance fill up nicely.

Banking

PartyCasino offers a comprehensive range of payment options, with no fees attached to any of the deposits and withdrawals you make.

The great range of payment options is matched by relatively quick withdrawal times. So long as your ID has been verified you can expect cash in your account in the following:

Debit cards: 2-5 working days

Bank transfers: 3-7 working days

eWallets: 1-2 working days

These are not the fastest times of all the online casinos we review and recommend, but PartyCasino is an established operator with a reputation for security which is worth taking into account.

As part of the terms of its UK Gambling Commission licence, PartyCasino keeps player funds in a separate account to operational funds and it does this to the medium level of protection.

This means the operator has taken steps to ensure that you will have your wagering balance returned to you in the event it goes bankrupt, but it can’t guarantee you will receive any or all of your funds.

Learn more about player fund segregation in our guide to online casino banking.

Customer Support

If you need to contact PartyCasino customer support, you can do so via email, phone and live chat, all of which are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

During our PartyCasino review, we spoke with agents on several occasions and always found them to be polite and professional. In all cases they answered our questions and resolved our issues.

In addition to this, PartyCasino has created a dedicated help centre full of articles and guides that answer the most common questions and queries players have. Again, we used this on several occasions while reviewing and found it to be very helpful.

Security and Fairness

PartyCasino says that it does “everything in its power” to ensure that your personal data and financial transactions are as safe and secure as possible.

To do this, it uses a 128-bit SSL encryption to block any unauthorised access to your personal information and funds being transferred into and out of your account.

When it comes to fairness, and as required by the UK Gambling Commission, PartyCasino uses a random number generator to determine the outcome of games. The operator’s RNG has been tested and certified by iTech Labs.

PartyCasino does gather and hold data about you, including your name, date of birth, card details, billing address, home address and telephone number.

You can request to see the data that PartyCasino holds about you at any time and have it deleted, although doing so may mean that you can no longer wager at the casino.

Anything hidden in the Terms and Conditions?

PartyCasino’s terms and conditions are comprehensive but are broken down into clear sections should you want to read through them.

We have thoroughly read the T&Cs as part of our PartyCasino review and found there to be nothing in them that you would not expect from a UK-licensed online casino or that would catch you out.

As is the case with most of the casinos that we recommend, if you do not submit proof of ID documents within 72 hours of opening your account it may be suspended until you do.

If you wish to make a complaint about PartyCasino, and so long as you have already been through its internal complaints process, you can do so with eCOGRA, the operator’s alternative dispute resolution body.

Read our guide to making a complaint against an online casino.

Other than that, PartyCasino is very clear about what it expects from you and what you can expect from it.

Conclusion

PartyCasino is one of the originals but has remained ahead of the curve over the past 20 years to deliver a modern online casino experience that scores highly in all areas.

From the stylish design to the wide range of games available via its loyalty scheme and friendly and knowledgeable customer support agents, PartyCasino is hard to fault.

During our PartyCasino review we really came to love what the casino has to offer players and this is why we are happy to recommend it to you.
