Omni Casino

Omni Casino (OmniCasino.com) welcomes players to its bright red website with a major announcement written across the top: “Celebrating 13 Years of Pure Casino Entertainment!”  And that, dear readers, is saying something, as an online casino with that much experience under its belt must be doing something right!  That said, there are things to make note of here, like the lack of security information and strict bonus rules.  US players are not accepted.

Note the games permitted when meeting wagering requirements are Slots, Keno and non-progressive Scratch Card games ONLY.  In fact, the casino removes your winnings if you have spent any time at all on a not allowed game.  Yes, this is a bad rule that many players could miss.  Don’t be one of them.

Omni is powered by the incredible Playtech software, which they switched to in 2008.  Playtech is justifiably considered one of the best in the business, and players who have been around the casinos since the start have watched this software grow, its main theme since inception.  Awesome graphics and sound can be counted on here, so don’t wait to download!  Should you be a Mac user, there is also a no-download Flash version available.

The Games page on the website does something we had never seen before – if you select the Table Games option on the left side, you can click through pictures of each available game, which for beginners, can really give a great sense of what game software looks like and which game is which.  More seasoned players may prefer to see a game listing, but don’t worry – they have all the popular games here: Slots, Progressive Slots, various forms of Blackjack, Craps, Baccarat, Keno, Video Poker, Red Dog, Roulette and even Scratch Card games.  Whatever your poison, bets are on you’ll find it here.

The Welcome Bonus here is on the lower side, with a First Deposit Bonus currently at 100% but only up to $100.  The second deposit bonus is actually a bit higher, a smart move on behalf of the casino.  The wagering requirements here are fair but beware that $6 is the maximum wager permitted at slots to meet these.  There is more than that to be aware of – see Player Warning for more details.

The casino also has weekly BlackJack tournaments, a Comp Point system, various weekday bonuses, Slot Tournaments, and various other Promotions going on consistently to keep players happy.

The support page here lists a great choice of emails and phone numbers, and says its Live Chat is currently down due to an upgrade of its system.  There is also a good FAQ section here.

The casino has rather ineffective information regarding how it keeps your information secure.  The very last sentence on the “Privacy” page states that they take every precaution to do this, and then direct you to the “Account Security” section which did not exist on any page we could locate.  The casino would be smart to make mention of using Encryption technology which is now standard in this industry.
