How to Open an Account at Spin Rio: My Experience

There were only two registration pages when I joined Spin Rio Casino, so signing up was quick and easy. Here’s what you need to do:

• Click the grey “Sign Up” icon
• Enter your email address
• Choose a username and password
• Click “Next”
• Input your name and gender

• Accept the terms/privacy policy and choose your marketing preferences
• Click “Submit”

Verified Spin Rio Bonus Offers

The Spin Rio Casino welcome offer goes big, offering up to £200 and 100 free spins. However, you won’t get everything at once, as it’s part of a three-tier welcome package.

There are other bonus offers available, but they’re not as plentiful as I would have liked and are largely limited to network promotions and the occasional loyalty offer.

How I Claimed Spin Rio’s Welcome Bonus

Clicking the “Claim Here” button on the Spin Rio Casino site directed me to a registration page. After completing the steps outlined above and depositing £10, I was given £10 more in bonus credits. I also got 20 free spins on Starburst, along with an additional 20 spins per day for four days on other slots.

I could have doubled my deposit up to £50, as the first deposit bonus is a 100% match with a cap of £50, along with 100 free spins (released in batches of 20).

Second Deposit Bonus

After the fifth day, I returned to get a piece of the second deposit bonus, which offers a 50% match up to £75. This time, however, I needed a minimum of £20 to qualify.

Third Deposit Bonus

The third deposit is the same as the second (50% up to £75), so I ended up with the same amount. There are no free spins for either of these, as they are all released with the first deposit bonus.

Other bonuses I found at Spin Rio

Unavailable bonuses at Spin Rio

I found loyalty promotions at Spin Rio Casino, but there is no reward scheme for UK players.

Wagering Requirements at Spin Rio

The wagering requirement for the welcome bonus is just 35x, and this applies to the bonus amount. Some casinos apply it to the bonus and deposit, effectively doubling it, but here it’s just the bonus. It jumps to 50x for no deposit bonuses.

Slots I Played at Spin Rio

I spent some time playing Book of Dead, as I have done many times before. It’s not a slot I will seek out, but like so many players, if I see it, I’ll give it a few spins. That’s no doubt why it’s at the top of the “Featured Games” list. There are hundreds of others, but the categories are limited, so if you’re looking for something specific, you’ll need to search.

How I Selected and Played The Best Slots

In the absence of a “Megaways” category, I searched for these games manually. Luckily, they all use “Megaways” in their titles, so they’re easy to find with search boxes.

Beyond that, I found myself scrolling through the “New” section before trying my luck with the random jackpot games under the “Drops & Wins” tab.

Progressive Slots at Spin Rio

Spin Rio doesn’t have the biggest or best selection of progressive games, as there are no jackpot games from Playtech or Microgaming/Games Global. Blueprint Gaming’s Jackpot King is included, though, so there are over a dozen of those, including a couple of variations of Fishin’ Frenzy.

Games Section at Spin Rio Casino

Spin Rio Casino doesn’t have a huge selection of games, but it covers all bases and includes the UK’s favourite developers, such as:

• Play’n Go
• Pragmatic Play
• Blueprint Gaming
• NetEnt

Casino Table Games

RNG table games are very poorly represented, and there are only a handful of them hidden in the “Casino Games” section. If that’s what you’re here for, prepare to be disappointed.

Spin Rio Live Casino Games

The inclusion of Evolution Gaming as a provider means that Spin Rio Casino has many more live table games than virtual ones. There are various versions of:

• Blackjack
• Roulette
• Game Shows
• Craps
• Number Games
• Baccarat

Deposit and Withdrawal Methods Available

I read in the terms and conditions that an admin fee may be charged for some payment methods. This was concerning, as transaction fees are a bugbear for me, but I was able to deposit and withdraw without encountering such a fee.

The minimum transaction amount is low and there is a varied selection of payment methods. The only downside is the withdrawal speed, as it took several days to get my cash, and I think a large part of this was the casino holding my funds in “pending”.

Deposit Methods & Processing Times

Withdrawal Methods, Limits & Processing Times

My Experience Withdrawing Winnings At Spin Rio

I processed a withdrawal in seconds, but it took three working days to land in my account using Visa. There was a time when such delays were common, especially with debit cards, but with Faster Payments, that shouldn’t be the case these days.

Web wallets are quicker, but they can still take up to two days, even though they should be instant.

Did Spin Rio’s Customer Service Resolve My Issues?

Live chat is available with limited hours (9:00 am to 11:00 pm), but you can only use this when you have signed up and logged in. I tried it as a member and connected to an agent in under a minute. They took a few hours to respond to my email, but that’s to be expected, and they were professional and helpful in both instances.

How Spin Rio Compares To Similar Brands

Spin Rio reminded me a lot of Luckster Casino. It’s basically a reskin of that site, which is no surprise, considering they are both Aspire Global brands. Even the welcome bonus was the same. I prefer Spin Rio purely because it’s easier to navigate and the visuals are more appealing, but the substance of these two sites is the same.

Another brand under the hood of Aspire Globa, King Casino, is next in the line of comparable operators. Spin Rio tops this one as well, due to the better bonus and website design. Honestly, I was a little annoyed by the intrusive popups on King Casino, prompting me to sign up right away. It felt like a cycle which I could not exit to get to the home page.

Reliability of Spin Rio

Aspire Global is the brand behind Spin Rio Casino. It’s a name most UK players will recognise, as it operates numerous casinos. You can’t get more trusted than these guys when it comes to gaming, but that’s not the only thing that Spin Rio has on its side.

It works with established developers and secure payment platforms and is protected by a state-of-the-art SSL and two gaming licenses (UK and Malta). I had no concerns about the legitimacy, fairness or reliability of the site.

Is Spin Rio Legit?

Spin Rio takes its responsible gambling very seriously. I was offered various tools when I checked my account, including deposit limits and a self-exclusion. These were easy to setup and use, and there were several helpful resources on the site, too.

Spin Rio Reviews and Ratings: What Do Players Say?

Spin Rio’s Trustpilot rating is very low, but it’s an unclaimed profile, so only those who make an effort to visit Trustpilot and find the casino will leave a review. That usually means they have something to get off their chest, which is rarely good news.

I couldn’t find any serious concerns. Several complained that the games crashed frequently, but I couldn’t replicate any of these issues.

Conclusion

I loved the welcome bonus on Spin Rio Casino, and the selection of games piqued my interest. There were many great slots, lots of new titles, and a packed live casino. However, it could have used more RNG table games and gaming categories to filter them. I would have also preferred a loyalty scheme, although these are few and far between on UK casinos these days.

All in all, I thought it was a good site—on par with some other AG Communications/Aspire Global brands.
