Once again curious to evaluate a casino’s efficiency with processing deposits and withdrawals in Bitcoins, our team delegated a tester to visit US-friendly BikiniSlots Casino. Keep watching the video to discover whether the $15 fee on withdrawal of a bit over $460 in BTC was the only unpleasant surprise for our tester!
Registration and KYC
Upon completing the 2-step form mthe tester officially joined the BikiniSlots casino. To finalize the registration process, players are required to agree to the Terms and Conditions. While signing up, they can also express their preferences for promotions, but our tester opted not to receive any notifications.
Bear in mind that account closure may incur a fee of $25.
After signing up, the tester provided some documents via mail to verify his identity, such as an image of the passport, a selfie with the passport, a utility bill as proof of address, and proof of deposit.
Rules note that verification may be required for first-time cashouts or after deposits that exceed $2,000.
Deposit
Having registered the tester made a deposit of $200/ 0.00289655 BTC.
To fund the account, players can use VISA, MasterCard, and a wide variety of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Tether, Ethereum, and others. The minimum deposit amount is $10, whereas the official currency of the site is the United States dollar. Sometimes fees may be charged on deposits.
According to the rules, it is not permitted to deposit into an account that already has enough funds to play with, based on the recent wagering activities.
Insufficient gaming activity in the first 7 days following the deposit may lead to a voided account.
Gameplay
After successful sign up and hassle-free deposit the tester went on to explore some games. Alice on Wonderland was the first game he launched, followed by Aeterna and Battle Maidens.
Before proceeding with games, he adjusted the wallet settings to eliminate the potential issues when the time to request a cashout approaches.
Other games he ventured into include Fields of Clover, Buffalo Trail, Val’s Haunted House, Clow Cards, and Choco Bunny Hop.
What needs to be mentioned is that the initial withdrawal request was placed at this point, on October 21, 2024. However, this request couldn’t be processed due to unmet wagering requirements. The tester attempted to cancel the withdrawal and return the amount to his balance, but the slow responsiveness of customer support caused some waiting.
Eventually, the request was canceled, and the funds were returned to his casino balance, so he could continue playing more games on October 31, 2024.
He tried luck with Chicken Madness, Altar the Muertos, and Crazy Crocs. The tester also played Agent of Hearts, Atlantis Thunder St. Patrick’s Day, Blirix Workshop, Megaways Jack, and Carnival of Souls.
He also checked out 24K Dragon and then returned to Agent of Hearts, which turned out to be a wise choice as it brought him two notable wins, one of $165.70 and the other of $209.28.
Withdrawal
Wanting to cash out his entire balance the tester typed in the exact amount of $463.52. However, a notification that appeared informed the tester that the “withdraw amount can’t be greater than the current balance.”
He changed the sum to $463, and this time, no notification appeared.
Although the notification that the request was processed appeared immediately, the money didn’t arrive until November 3, 2024, so he contacted customer support to find out what was going on.
The response arrived on the same day, indicating that money was on the way, and also informing the tester of a fee that would be applied to the transaction. Following the removal of the fee of $15.59, the tester received $447.41 / 0.0065 BTC on November 3, 2024.
The minimum withdrawal is USD 100, whereas the weekly and monthly maximum amounts to cash out are below the industry’s average.
To be able to withdraw, players need to wager the deposit at least once.
Conclusion
Let’s take a quick look at the milestone moments of the test once again!
A larger fee on withdrawal plus too much waiting for a Bitcoin transaction is not quite the opposite of what a casino should do to make a player happy, don’t you agree?
