Cloudbet Casino Review

Within the header menu, under ‘Promotions,’ Cloudbet presents current offers in one convenient location. These include its ongoing loyalty club program, along with random or recurring tournaments, free spins and other bonuses.

Unfortunately, Cloudbet does not offer a no deposit bonus. Although, the casino is able to provide other vary generous offers:

Welcome Bonus 

Cloudbet greets new players with a generous match bonus on the first deposit. To qualify, you must make a minimum crypto or fiat currency deposit (20 USDT). The casino will then match you 100% to a maximum (50,000 USDT). Unfortunately, this casino welcome offer excludes sports, horse racing, Esports and virtuals. 

The Cloudbet welcome bonus works differently from most online casinos, with the bonus released in increments for every 150 points earned. Every time you place a bet, you collect welcome bonus points according to a formula:

Points earned are dependent on the casino game. Slot games generally award the most points (0.345), whilst blackjack games credit the least (0.49). Live roulette falls in the middle crediting 0.216 points.

You can withdraw the bonus funds or continue to play using them when they appear in your real money balance.

Regular Player Bonuses & Tournaments

Keeping regular players engaged is one of the things Cloudbet does exceptionally well. Even if you don’t enjoy one of the tournaments that might be running, you may be tempted by free spins, deposit bonuses or some other promotion. These are subject to rollover requirements and game contributions based on the game type.

If you happen to enjoy tournaments, we especially liked that the prizes can be rewarded in real money. In this case, there would be no rollover requirements.

Loyalty Program

Although the idea of a loyalty program is not a new concept, the structure, mechanics, and rewards can be quite different depending on where you play.

Cloudbet has opted to create a loyalty program based on tiers named after precious metals or gems: bronze, silver, gold, emerald, sapphire, and ruby. The perks differ significantly between the lowest and highest tiers, including a higher lightning points multiplier (redeemed for rewards), sports reward earnings, and a lower rollover requirement. 

Cloudbet uses a slick black ultra-modern colour theme (which you can customize) with graphics that scream sophistication. If English isn’t your first language, Cloudbet offers its site in numerous languages:

• Spanish
• German
• Italian
• French
• Swedish
• Dutch
• Portuguese
• Polish
• Portuguese (Brazil)
• Russian
• Turkish
• Hungarian
• Indonesian
• Japanese
• South Korean

This is an instant-play casino, so there is no need to download an app for mobile or desktop. Alongside promotions and a casino blog, the top navigation menu contains page links to the game categories:

• Casino
• Sports
• Esports
• Racing
• Live Casino
• Provably Fair
• Virtuals

This makes navigating between them faster and easier: Under each page, Cloudbet allows players to refine their search using a sticky header menu. For example, casino games are organized into slots, jackpot slots, blackjack, baccarat and roulette. 

Links to promotions and a blog page are also on the main navigation menu. Cloudbet’s blog makes for interesting reading, covering betting strategy, internal & external news, Esports & sports and cryptocurrencies.

The website also has a sidebar menu, allowing players to seamlessly navigate to other Cloudbet pages. For example, the sports page has a sidebar menu which lists over 30 sports.

The casino games collection at Cloudbet is provided by over 60 developers, making it one of the more comprehensive of any online casino. Cloudbet has over 1,600 online slot machines, table games and live dealer games, including many of the most popular titles. 

One of the advantages of playing casino games at Cloudbet is that you can see important details like volatility and return to player (RTP) by hovering over a title. It helps players select a suitable game that aligns with their risk and reward appetite.

Online slots

We were pleased to see many top slot providers, including NetEnt, Microgaming, Betsoft, Big Time Gaming, Play’n GO and Quickspin. However, we were a little disappointed not to see Pragmatic Play, which means no Drops & Wins promotion. Still, we did find a solid number of Megaways^TM slots, which is a great consolation, given how popular the mechanic has become.

We also liked the casino’s composition of local and pooled progressive jackpot slots as we noted some of the most popular:

• Mega Moolah (Microgaming)
• Major Millions (Microgaming)
• Divine Fortune (NetEnt)

Still, we would like to have seen more NetEnt progressive jackpot slots, like Mega Fortune, Arabian Nights and Hall of Gods.

Online casino games

Players interested in playing table games against virtual dealers will particularly find the selection of online blackjack appealing. These are provided by leading developers, including giants like Play’n GO, Microgaming, NetEnt and Betsoft.

Cloudbet also caters for online poker, video poker, baccarat and roulette enthusiasts. However, the selection is not as comprehensive.

Live casino games

We noted close to 60 live casino games available on Cloudbet, which we view as the higher end relative to other online casinos. These include a good mix of games from leading providers like Evolution Gaming, Ezugi, VIVO, and Authentic Gaming.

On balance, live roulette (including live dealer and auto roulette), live baccarat and live blackjack represent the bulk in this section. Players looking for table games with higher limits will find a ‘High Roller’ link in the sticky menu. Live game shows are also a sizable category with all of the major titles from Evolution Gaming:

• Crazy Time
• Dream Catcher
• Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt
• Deal or no Deal
• Mega Ball
• Cash or Crash 

Sports betting

Cloudbet’s sports betting platform offers competitive fixed and in-play odds, covering nearly 40 sports with hundreds of betting markets. Additionally, it offers betting markets in horseracing (with new and improved pricing), horse racing, virtuals and Esports. In April 2022, Cloudbet announced an upgrade to its horse racing offer, including higher limits, more competitive odds and live streaming.

Cloudbet is an online crypto casino established in 2013, making it one of the oldest cryptocurrency casinos. The casino is operated by Halcyon Super Holdings, which holds a Curacao eGaming (CEG) license issued by the Government of Curaçao. Cloudbet is also licensed and authorized in Montenegro.

The casino has a respectable track record and enjoys a good player reputation. 

Online casino games using random number generators (RNGs) are tested and certified fair by independent companies. Effectively, it ensures games have not been tampered with to make you lose. Although live casino games do not generally use RNGs, they are conducted in a controlled environment. The dealer’s actions are in full view of players at all times.

For greater playing transparency, Cloudbet provides a few Provably Fair crypto games. Cloudbet offers a small selection of 8 Provably Fair casino games, including roulette, keno and Plinko.

While players from most countries are welcome to play at the casino, Cloudbet prohibits those from the United Kingdom, China, Hong Kong, Macau and the United States.

When you deposit in Tether or another cryptocurrency, Cloudbet holds them in cold storage for safety. The hot water facility is active only for withdrawals. Therefore, you know your deposit is safe and secure. Furthermore, the casino offers two-factor authentication (2FA), which they advise you to activate.

First and foremost, Cloudbet accepts a surprisingly large number of cryptocurrencies besides Tether. Not surprisingly, these include the more liquid altcoins and Bitcoin:

• Bitcoin (BTC)
• Ethereum (ETH)
• Dash (DASH)
• Cardano (ADA)
• Stellar (XLM)
• Algorand (ALGO)
• Bitcoin Cash (BCH)
• Binance Coin (BNB)
• Solana (SOL)
• Binance USD (BUSD)
• Dai (DAI)
• Doge (DOGE)
• Polkadot (DOT)
• Shiba Inu (SHIB)
• Tether (USDT)
• Fantom (FTM)
• Link (LINK)
• Litecoin (LTC)
• Terra (LUNA)
• Polygon (MATIC)
• Pax Gold (PAXG)
• Uniswap (UNI)
• USD Coin (USDC)
• Avalanche (AVAX)
• Pax Dollar (USDP)
• TerraUSD (UST)
• Ripple (XRP)

Depositing in fiat currencies (USD/JPY) or Tether/other cryptocurrencies is easy and seamless from the ‘Deposit’ page. You can scan a UPC code for cryptocurrency transactions or copy/paste the deposit address into your crypto wallet.

A minimum deposit amount applies depending on the currency you use. For example, Tether has a minimum deposit requirement of 20 USDT.

Cloudbet also allows players to purchase USDT (Tether) and other cryptocurrencies on-site using US dollars from a credit/debit card or Apple Pay. This is accomplished through its collaboration with the fiat-to-crypto provider MoonPay.

Ordinarily, funds will reach your player account within a few minutes. The same is true for Tether withdrawals once the casino has processed your request. Cloudbet does not apply a deposit or withdrawal fee in general. 

However, the terms state they reserve the right to add a handling fee of up to 5% on deposits and withdrawals. Unfortunately, the conditions are ambiguous. On the other hand, we liked that there are no withdrawal limits.

Cloudbet customer support is available via one of three methods: live chat, email and social media. The former method is available 24/7 with under 2 minutes of waiting time, making it the fastest way of getting in touch with Cloudbet support.

Alternatively, players can shoot an email to support@cloudbet.com, which takes a little longer but can be a better option for a detailed query.

If you’re on social media channels like Twitter, Discord or Bitcoin Talk, you can reach out via one of these methods.

Unfortunately, Cloudbet does not offer a dedicated telephone support line, although this is also the case with many online casinos.

Before reaching out to Cloudbet customer support, we recommend browsing through the website’s footer for information. You’ll find info on terms of service, sportsbook rules, responsible gambling, etc.
