Bet&Hold

The author's opinion about Bet&Hold

Bet&Hold is a pretty lackluster casino in my view, in a very literal sense of the word, because it could have used quite a bit more polish before it launched. The library of games of the house was quite difficult for me to parse through, with no filtering options or a meaningful way to explore games from my favorite genres.  This is usually a sign of a gambling house which does not really have a great level of service, and that turned out to be precisely the case with Bet&Hold, too, in my view. The casino's only accepted payment method, for instance, was cryptocurrencies, which is a bit too limiting in my view! What's more, the gambling house did not let me claim any bonyses, despite outlining the promotions it hands out to its players within its Terms and Conditions! So, I cannot really say that Bet&Hold is worth checking out, and I would recommend avoiding the casino outright, because there are significantly better options to pick from!

David Johnson, online casino expert

Bet&Hold was launched all the way back in 2023, which makes it a bit over a year old at the time of writing. Despite this, the casino's website gives off the impression that the house is much, much older! For instance, the games library it offers is disjointed an annoying to browse. The sign up process takes forever, since the verification that Bet&Hold sent us was incredibly slow to arrive and so on.

The services of the casino themselves are far from what is considered to be the cutting edge nowadays. We believe they were outdated even in 2023, with a single payment method to use – cryptocurrency, and an exceptionally limited range of Games by what seems to be under 10 Suppliers in total. So, we cannot recommend checking the house out. But, if you are interested in learning more about what Bet&Hold has to offer, and its downsides and advantages, we will be exploring both of them, within the following review of the gambling house:

Bet&Hold Bonuses and Promo Codes

First things first, we should mention that the bonuses that are described in this initial section of our review were not available to us at all! The page of the casino which is dedicated to its promotions was completely empty at the time of writing. That said, though, we were able to gather quite a lot of information from the promotions of the casino from its Terms and Conditions.

So, we believe that the house could resume offering its promotions in the future. That means we should take a closer look at them. Before we do so, though, there is no mention of any regional restrictions for the bonuses of the gambling house. This means that, wherever you live, you should be able to make use of the promotions of Bet&Hold without any restriction, once they come back online, of course. Here's an overview of said bonuses.

We'd also like to give you a bit of a more detailed breakdown of every one of the promotions of Bet&Hold as well, so let's start off with them in the order in which they appear in the table above:

The No deposit bonuses of Bet&Hold

There are not as many promotions which are as popular among players as No deposit bonuses are! These promotions consist of a small amount of Cash or Free Spins, which you can get as soon as you sign up to the house, without needing to have deposited anything prior to that. What's more, the majority of casinos nowadays let you withdraw your No deposit bonus winnings, too, which is why these promotions enjoy enduring popularity among players!

However, there are currently no bonuses at all with Bet&Hold, regardless of whether they demand a deposit or not! Yet, there is quite a lot of information about how the No deposit bonuses of the gambling house would work. So, it's possible for such a promotion to be re-introduced sometime in the future. We know that it will only consist of Free Spins, with the average size of the Spins bundles for these bonuses being around 10-50 Spins at most.

Then, we also know that the No deposit bonus of the casino will be withdrawable as well, provided you can clear its wagering requriement. Now, that requriement is set to 100x the winnings from the Spins, which is a bit high, even for a No deposit bonus. These promotions do have higher wagering requirements, because they are free to claim, but even so, these requirements are usually around 60x-80x at their highest.

On the other hand, there is also a $50 maximum withdrawal limit from the No deposit bonuses of Bet&Hold, which is a fair enough amount, considering the average for such promotions tends to be around $50-100 in most online casinos nowadays. So, despite its higher than average wagering requriement, we can safely say that the No deposit bonus of Bet&Hold does have a lot for players to look forward to. But since it's not yet out, let's take a look at the rest of the promotions of the gambling house, too:

The Welcome bonuses of Bet&Hold

As with most online gambling houses these days, Bet&Hold states that it offers a bunch of Welcome bonuses in its Bonus Policies. That said, unlike the rest of the houses, we were not actually able to claim these bonuses, which was pretty disappointing! That is because these promotions actually seemed to us to be fairly generous!

In total, they are said to include three initial deposit offers, which allow you to get up to $2000 and 350 Free Spins for the first three deposits you can make to the house. If you are interested in a more specific breakdown of what each of the bonuses offers, here is what you can get at each step from the Welcome package of Bet&Hold:

• First Deposit Bonus: A warm welcome with a significant bonus netting you 100% of your deposited funds, up to a maximum of $500 and 200 Free Spins on the legendary slot Big Bass Bonanza.
• Second Deposit Bonus: Another generous initial promotion, which lets players make use of a 75% bonus for their deposits, up to a high maximum of $500 and 100 Free Spins in Gates of Olympus.
• Third Deposit Bonus: To round the Welcome package out, the casino offers a Third Deposit bonus which nets you 100% of said Third Deposit, up to a maximum of $1000, as well as a bundle of 50 Free Spins for Jammin' Jars.

Overall, the Welcome bonuses of the gambling house do offer quite a lot in terms of Cash and Free Spins, and the package seems very rewarding to us as a whole. The minimum deposit required to claim any of the bonuses of Bet&Hold is pretty low, too, set to $10. Usually, houses ask you to deposit at least $20 if you are to receive their Welcome offers, regardless of their minimum deposit limit being lower.

That said, there is a very high wagering requriement for the players who have claimed the promotion to deal with! Said requriement is set to 50x, which means you need to wager the bonus that many times before cashing it out, as well as play through your Free Spins winnings that many times, too. There is usually a lower wagering requriement to similar promotions, generally trending around 30x-40x.

We should mention that some casinos have maximum withdrawal limits for their Welcome packages. Bet&Hold does not, even though such limits are present on every other type of bonus with the house. Overall, besides the wagering requirement being too high, there are no glaring issues with the Welcome package of the house. Now, let's take a look at the rest of the promotions of the casino:

The Monday Unlimited Bonus

This promotion can be claimed every Monday, and nets players 25% of their deposited funds, up to an unspecified maximum limit. Now, the bonus could have no maximum cash amount, as its name might imply, but Unlimited might also refer to the amount of times you can get the promotion on Mondays.

Either way, the promotion's multiplier for player funds is not particularly enticing, but its minimum deposit requriement of $10 is pretty decent! However, we are once again faced with a significant wagering requirement for the promotion – set to 50x. It is curious that one of the VIP perks of the casino is the wagering requirement of your Reload bonuses going lower. However, the 50x wagering requriement limit of the promotion is said to be unaffected by this particular VIP perk!

The maximum you will be able to withdraw from the promotion is set to between $1000 and $25 000, depending on your VIP account level. We will be explaining how this works when we take a look at the VIP perks of the house in more depth. For now, though, even the lowest cash out limit seems to be pretty fair. However, if the promotion is truly unlimited in size, and you get, say $500 worth of bonus cash out of it, you will have to play through it 50x to cash out 2x your bonus. It would have been best to set the maximum cash out limit to 5x the bonus funds players get, or 10x that amount, instead of a flat and fixed number!

The Tuesday Free Spins Bonus

Next, a special Free Spins bonus is said to be available on Tuesdays. This is a much more straightforward promotion than the Monday Unlimited bonus, and it just nets you a small bundle 25 Free Spins. What makes this bundle exciting is the fact that you should be able to get the Spins credited to a different game every week, from a roster of popular titles, which is quite excellent.

To get the bonus, you need to deposit $10 to the casino, as with any other promotion we mentioned. That feels like a fair amount, considering the size of the Free Spins bundle you get from it. It would have been better to offer players higher bundles the more they deposit, like 50 Spins for cashing in $20 or more or 100 for depositing over $50. That way, highrollers would have a reason to check the bonus out, too!

The wagering requirement of the casino's Free Spins bonus is set to 50x, too, which is quite high. Once again, that is not modified or affected by the VIP perks of your account, which means the limit from the promotion is always going to be set to 50x. Needless to say, that is a bit disappointing! At least the maximum withdrawal limit of $500 for the bonus is actually quite high, allowing players to get a relatively high amount of their winnings out.

The Thursday Deposit bonus

This is probably the most underwhelming promotion of the casino, because it offers a very low maximum amount – just $50. It also counts just 50% of the respective deposit you place on Thursdays towards that amount, which is a relatively low multiplier.

The promotion does require a low minimum deposit of $10 as any other bonus you can get from the casino. Also, the unreasonable 50x wagering requirement is also present within the Terms for this bonus, too, which we are less happy about. This is also a promotion which is not affected by your VIP status, and which needs to be wagered 50x regardless of the level of your account.

The maximum cash out limit of this bonus is affected by your VIP status, though, and you can withdraw between $1000 and $25 000 worth of winnings from it. We can safely say that even the lowest maximum cash out limit for the bonus is pretty competitive here, and we are happy to see Bet&Hold provide players with as high of a limit!

The Daily Cashback bonus: 

The last bonus of the casino we'd like to cover is the Daily Cashback offer. Technically, it is a part of the VIP perks of the house, but we'd like to take a look at the bonus separately from them.

Cashback bonuses are a relatively widespread type of promotion that the majority of online gambling houses nowadays allow their players to get. They are pretty straightforward, too. Every Cashback bonus lets players recover a certain amount of their losses from over a certain amount of time. The cashback of Bet&Hold lets you get between 3% and 15% of your daily losses on any type of game you can find in the casino credited back to your account.

That is actually quite enticing, in our view, but there is a caveat. The wagering requriement of the bonus is between 1x and 50x, depending on your account level. There are nine different levels of wagering requirements, but only two of them, the highest two, are anywhere near as close as what they should be!

That is because the two highest account tiers of Bet&Hold can withdraw the cashback bonus by wagering it 5x and 1x. Meanwhile, the average online casino nowadays does allow you to cash out such bonuses by simply playing through them 3x-5x, regardless of what your place is in a VIP program!

But what's even worse is that the Cashback bonus needs to be wagered within 24 hours of receiving it. That is a very ow amount of time to actually complete a wagering requirement as high as 50x!

There is a maximum cashback limit of $1000 you can get every day, but the cash out limit for most levels of player accounts is lower than that maximum, with $500-800 being the maximum withdrawal levels for players with account tiers of 2-6. The maximum cash out limit of $5000 per day for the maximum account level is pretty good, though, especially when we take into account the wagering requriement of the Cashback offer getting lower the higher your account level is!

Nevertheless, we cannot really say that this is a very appealing take on the Cashback bonus at all. Now, let's take a closer look at the VIP program of the house and the perks you can get for it:

The VIP Perks of Bet&Hold 

Every online casino which aims to retain players for longer amounts of time offers them a VIP program to take part in! This allows you to make use of a range of exclusive perks and makes your time playing your favorite games in the casino even better. Bet&Hold is no exception from that, and offers its own set of exclusive VIP perks for its most loyal players.

However, there is not a lot of information on how the program actually works. For instance, we know that there are ten account levels. We also know that every player starts off at account level 1 and climbs the ranks all the way up to account level 10. We also know that doing so requires you to collect Loyalty points. One of these Points is awarded for every $20 you cash in, or every $10 during Wednesdays.

But how many loyalty points you need to reach to get each rank, how often you can increase your rank per week, month and so on and many other specifics of the VIP perks are not known.

Also, the rewards for investing your time in the casino don't really seem all that enticing to us, if we're being honest! We already discussed the reduction in wagering requirement for the promotions of Bet&Hold. At level 1 you need to wager bonuses 50x, while level 10 players only need to play through them 10x to cash out.

Now, that would be a great incentive to level up your account, but every Reload bonus of Bet&Hold mentions in its Terms and Conditions that it needs to be played through 50x to cash out, regardless of whether your account level is 1 or 10. The Daily Cashback has a wagering requirement that is also tied to the VIP system of the casino, but it is a different, and lower, amount than the 50x-10x range we are currently discussing. So, the only bonuses that this could apply to are the Welcome promotions of Bet&Hold. However, since those are available with your initial deposits, you will likely not be able to get far in the VIP perks of the house at all when you can claim them!

The other reward for climbing the ranks of the casino's bonus program is an increase in the maximum cash out limit for cash bonuses. This goes up from $2500 to $10 000, which is pretty great. Still, though, there are not a lot of bonuses that can utilize the higher maximum withdrawal limit. For instance, the Thursday Reload offer only lets you get up to $50 as a maximum, so even the lowest amount of that limit is pretty good, with regards to its size!

To give you a brief summary on the bonus conditions of Bet&Hold, the casino does have a pretty decent amount of promotions outlined in its Terms and Conditions, but the actual conditions of some of these promotions are quite questionable, and that makes the house a bit less compelling than what it could otherwise be.

Bet&Hold License

The regulatory background of this online casino is actually decently solid. On its website, it claimed that it was owned and ran by an operator, called B&H Evolution Ltd, under a license by the Anjouan Gaming Authority, as you can see from the following screenshot:

We checked that claim with the register of Anjouan Gaming, where we found the following entry for the operator of Bet&Hold:

As you can see from the excerpt from the register we just showed you, the casino is actually licensed, just as it claimed on its website. Here is what that means for its players:

• Dealing with Anjouan licensed casinos lets you benefit from all of the protections that Anjouan Gaming has envisioned for the players of the gambling houses it oversees, but the license itself is a protection in a way, because it guarantees that the houses you are playing in are legitimate.
• Secondly, the license of the gambling house allows players to be certain they have access to RNG-tested and provably fair games. This means that every title you enjoy in the catalog of the gambling house has undergone extensive testing by independent professionals before it found its way in said catalog, meaning players can be certain they are playing actual games of chance.
• Furthermore, the gambling houses under the license of Anjouan Gaming are expected to uphold high standards in their fight with money-laundering and financial crime taking place in their casinos. They need to verify the identity of their players and their source of income. These policies also help the casinos combat underage gambling, which is great!
• Finally, Anjouan Gaming makes casinos offer players access to self-exclusion measures, but does not specify which types of them need to be available. Usually, this means the ability to set up custom deposit and withdrawal limits or close down your account at any time you might like to.

Overall, we are happy with what the regulatory background of the casino is, even if there are certain places where its regulation could be tighter! Still, we'd like to discuss two more aspects of the casino in this section of our review. These are the language versions of its website and the countries from where the casino does not accept new players. Lists of both of them are provided here:

Languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese

Restricted countries: Australia, Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Show All, Afghanistan, American Samoa, Austria, Comoros, France, Guam, Korea, North, Spain, United States, United States Minor Outlying Islands, Virgin Islands, U.S.

Bet&Hold Deposit and Withdrawal

The payment conditions of Bet&Hold are decent for the most part. However, there are certain areas in which we wish the casino could do better! So, let's take a look at the deposit policies and then the withdrawal conditions of Bet&Hold:

The deposit policies of Bet&Hold 

Currencies: Euro (EUR), Indian Rupee (INR), US Dollar (USD), Japanese Yen (JPY), New Zealand Dollar (NZD), Australian Dollar (AUD), Turkish Lira (TRY), Canadian Dollar (CAD), Norwegian Krone (NOK), Polish zloty (PLN), Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Dogecoin (DOGE), XRP, Litecoin (LTC), Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC)

The first thing we should note about the casino is that it only accepts cryptocurrencies. That makes for a pretty limiting range of payment methods for its players to use, and it can even be a turnoff for some, because they might not know how to use crypto, or might simply not want to do so for other reasons.

However, what's even more concerning than that is the fact that the gambling house has only FIAT base account currencies. So, even if you are a crypto fan, you will not be able to actually play your favorite games directly with your tokens, meaning you will have to worry about exchange rates, and even, potentially, exchange fees.

At least the minimum deposit limit of the gambling house, set to $10, is actually fairly competitive. The average house would ask you to cash in between $10-20 on average, for reference. Also, we are happy to report that there are no fees by Bet&Hold for processing your payments, which is great. That said, third party charges, such as fees by crypto miners, will be present on every transaction to the house and will have to be covered by the player! With all that in mind, here are the withdrawal policies of Bet&Hold:

The withdrawal conditions of Bet&Hold: 

Just as with any online casino worth its salt nowadays, Bet&Hold demands that its players wager their deposits at least 1x before cashing out. That is one of the most common and effecting AML policies that online casinos nowadays can implement. So, it is also something most of them do implement! Usually, that wagering requriement is set to 3x at most, so the one Bet&Hold has is actually pretty decent. Now, here are the withdrawal conditions of the house:

First off, the same issue with only letting players cash out via crypto but having a FIAT base account currency applies to the withdrawals from the house, too! We would not like to repeat them here, so refer to the discussion of the deposit conditions of the house again for more information.

The minimum withdrawal limit from the casino is set to $10, once again, a very low amount, compared to what most other gambling houses ask for. That is up to $20, sometimes even more. We are also quite fond of the daily maximum withdrawal of $2500, which is pretty compelling, in our view.

The processing times of up to 3 days are in line with what most houses ask for, though it is possible for players to run into further delays. These are usually caused by the casino needing more verification for you.

Finally, there are no fees by Bet&Hold for withdrawals, either. That is excellent, but since the house has only crypto as its single allowed cash out method, you will have to cover the miner fees for your transactions.

Bet&Hold Games and Game Suppliers

The range of Games with Bet&Hold is very poor. There are quite a lot of game types, but not a lot of games in each of them, and the total amount of titles is about 1000. Also, there is just not a lot of information on the Suppliers Bet&Hold partners with. The majority of houses let you browse them and even filter the games by the Supplier itself, but that's not the case with Bet&Hold. Instead, here are some of the Suppliers we managed find on its website by recognizing its games:

Game providers: PragmaticPlay, Red Rake, Play'n GO, Felix Gaming, Other

Most online gambling houses these days partner with around 50 or so Suppliers, but that cannot be the case here! Even if the total amount of Suppliers is unknown, the amount of games suggests a much smaller number, around 10-15 at most. Still, the Suppliers we listed above are some of the finest in the online gambling software industry, so there are some high-quality games to play by them at least. Here is what types of games are available, as well as an example from each type of game:

• Slots: Big Bass Bonanza, Book of Dead, Wolf's Gold
• Table Games: Baccarat, Poker, Blackjack, Roulettes
• Live Games: Baccarat, Poker, Blackjack, Roulettes
• Game Shows: Crazy Time, Gonzo's Treasure Hunt, Crazy Coin Flip
• Crash Games: Mr Thumble, Perfect Fishing, Star Guardians
• Other Games: Scratch Card Games, Fishing Games, Dice Games (Craps)

Conclusion

Overall, we are not really going to be recommending Bet&Hold at the end of the day. It seems like the casino has been abandoned by its operator, too, because its library of games is tiny and it does not currently offer games. That said, if you are still on the lookout for somewhere to play, don't hesitate to check out the rest of our reviews for better options!
