Gomblingo is a divisive online casino, mainly because of its regulatory status, but especially because of the way that Gomblingo has chosen to handle it. Read the review to judge for yourselves if this one is for you.
BONUSES
Welcome Bonus of 100% up to $100: This is the classic and very stale welcome bonus package that basically every online casino has. Invest as low as $10 to activate it, whereas the client can receive up to $100 as bonus funds to wager. Speaking of the wagering requirements, here they are very low, at only 12 times, and it must be completed within 21 days.

50% up to $50 Reload Bonus: It’s very much like the above bonus, only that there are slight differences to the bonus requirements. For one, the wagering requirements, the user has to turnover his deposit 3 times and the deposit amount 5 times. The minimum deposit requirement is only $10.
$50 in Freebet Tokes Each Month: This bonus is used on the casino’s betting platform, allowing users to bet with the bonus.

LICENSE
Gomblingo presents a stalemate of a legal situation. Let us give you a brief overview.
Gomblingo is operated and owned by owned by NewEra B.V, a company registered in Curacao. Now, Gomblingo states to be regulated by the Curaçao eGaming (CEG), but on the footer we are given a link stating that the firm is actually not regulated by the entity. We even went to the website of the regulator to make sure, and this is what we got:
So, officially, Gomblingo is not regulated in Curacao, but still registered there. So, Gomblingo is not authorized by any overseer to provide online casino services, meaning that it operates within its own small ambiguous framework. To us, this spells risk. We don’t want to be the ones to say it, but Gomblingo is behaving irresponsibly, in the same page claiming to be fully regulated, lying in the eyes of its users, while also providing a fully accessible link that says otherwise.
DEPOSIT AND WITHDRAWAL
According to the legal documents, the available payment methods are wire transfers, credit cards, e-wallet, and prepaid cards. However, the specifics have not been revealed. A minimum deposit requirement is set at $10, according to the bonus structures. There aren’t too many payment conditions, but the legal docs have a bunch of clauses that kind of break the whole experiences.
First of all, we are told that “multiple” withdrawals made within a one-month span will be issued a 8% withdrawal fee, but what’s the limit here? Gomblingo has not indicated the limit of the withdrawals. This is a very shady clause, bordering a fraudulent one.
Then there is provisions that grants the right to Gomblingo to charge a withdrawal fee to cover admin fees, in case a deposit has not been turnover at least 10 times. This is way too high a requirement, considering that all bonuses also have turnover requirement. It makes the usage of bonuses useless.
Not to mention that further down the legal docs, we find another general wagering clause, stating that a customer has to complete a 5x rollover of each deposit (plus all the above wagering requirements), and if he does not complete it then Gomblingo will issue a 8% withdrawal fee.
With these preconditions, one can feel the absence of a regulatory body, which would have made things way easier for clients.
GAMES AND GAME SUPPLIERS
Video slots such as Gates Of Olympus, Book of Dead, Gonzo’s Quest, and Big Bass Bonanza are all available, on top of other popular ones. Actually, the best part of Gomblingo is the assortment of games. There are over 50 gaming providers and thousands of games. The providers are the best of the best, including the likes of Netent, Betsoft, Evolution Gaming, iSoftBet, PragmaticPlay, Booming Games, EvoPlay, MicroGaming, and more than 40 others.
One cannot avoid the classic live casino games, which include roulette, poker, baccarat, spin the wheel, various card game variations, blackjack, and craps, etc. There are also the so called TV games, like live poker, live roulette, provided by VTVBet and 101 BetGames.
Also, we have Virtual Sport games, which are basically as they sound: sport games that uses a wagering system to accommodate the casino’s standards. Play horse racing, bicycle riding, football, tennis, and even hokey and table tennis games, provided by Kiron and Leap.
Then there is the live betting platform, a whole subsection of the site dedicated to betting on live sporting events, all kinds of sports, like football, tennis, ice hokey, basketball, e-sports, and other major sports. It’s very easy to use, and it made accessible even to the rookiest of players.
CONCLUSION
Considering the lack of a license, and the lies we found about, we can only warn clients that they might be exposed to a certain degree of risk here. Even though the collection of games is fantastic, we urge readers t0 consider the bigger picture.
