Herake Casino Details
Table of contents
Herake Casino is a new nice looking casino based in Curacao that's offering a large amount of casino and Live Casino games. The house appears to be focused on crypto, as they accept a wide variety of digital coins including some tokens that aren't usually accepted in casinos, such as MATIC, LINK and SOL. Their approach, however, is a double-edged sword as no fiat deposits are actually accepted, and that's definitely a major downside to note.
And it's not the only one. The casino suffers from other issues, as well, including but not limited to a license that's not verifiable, sports betting that's advertised but not offered, and a lack of bonuses. We weren't impressed by Herake Casino and in the following review, we'll explain why. But long story short, Herake Casino simply does not meet the high expectations in the industry. Now, let's get into details.

Bonuses
Bonus | Min deposit | Max bonus | Wagering requirements | Cash out limit |
Welcome Bonus | $10 | 100% up to $250 + 100 spins | 30x | Unspecified |
We were unpleasantly surprised to see that Herake Casino currently offers only one bonus. And once we registered and tried to activate it, we got a message that the promo is not actually available. We should have been furious, but on the other hand, we don't want to judge Herake Casino too hard. After all, the casino is only two months old and it's just starting, so some issues are to be expected. That said, it's more or less unacceptable for a company to launch a gaming website that's not fully prepared for playing. That's an issue, and Herake Casino should improve and quickly.
Those experiences, however, aren't the only drawback to the bonuses. Another thing we disliked is that the promo is not properly specified, as it includes no specific TCs related to this promo only. As a result, players will have no clue where the free spins given away will be activated. Or, if there are some particular country restrictions. It may happen that you register because of the bonus, but once in the Cashier, you may also realise that you aren't eligible for any promotions whatsoever. Herake Casino's bonus policy is substandard, and they won't get a good rating if nothing with the promos is spotless.
But anyways, see the details we could gather.
- Welcome Bonus – for new players and their first deposits. Once $10 is placed into the account, a bonus of 100% up to $250 and 100 free spins is activated. As mentioned, it's unclear where the FS will be reallocated. A wagering requirement is not specifically set, but according to general TCs, each bonus should be wagered at least 30 times before a withdrawal. Cash-out limits are not specified.
And that's all. No packages in multiple deposits, no reload bonuses, no extra free spins for a day in the week, no cashback, no birthday promos, no anniversary bonuses, and basically nothing else for existing players. We shall repeat it. Herake Casino's bonus policy disappoints for real.
License
The part with the license and authorisation also disappoints. Herake Casino is owned by a company named DvG Capital B.V. – a business we can't say much about as it seems to be a new player in the market. Maybe that's the reason why Herake Casino is somewhat a substandard casino, but that's our own guess only.
What matters more is that it was practically impossible to verify that Herake Casino is licensed. They have a License webpage, but it's empty and on top of that no licensing seal was found in the footer of the website, meaning that instant verification is impossible. Nonetheless, we didn't give up, but our attempts to find a license linked to Herake Casino remained fruitless. At present, the casino doesn't seem to have a valid authorisation, and that's a bad sign. Or, if it has one, they haven't made it easy to verify that, which is also a very big problem. What's the point of being authorised when you don't show it and do not make the necessary to prove it?
Considering those things, we can only treat Herake Casino as an unlicensed casino, so see why it's not a good idea to wager in such places.
- Lack of regulation – unlicensed casinos are not regulated by any authority, meaning there's no guarantee that the games are fair or that the casino will honor payouts. If an unlicensed casino doesn't want to pay, you have almost nothing you can do about it.
- Security risks – unlicensed may not have strong security measures to protect your personal and financial information.
- Legal issues – gambling at an unlicensed casino can be illegal depending on your country's laws. Therefore, you may face legal consequences if you wager in unlicensed casinos.
- No recourse for disputes – if you have a dispute with an unlicensed casino, you have no legal recourse since they are not accountable to any regulatory bodies.
- Possible unethical practices – unlicensed casinos might employ unethical practices, like offering rigged games or using deceptive advertising. And since they are unregulated, no one can stop them from being unfair with players.
- Addiction and financial risks – unlicensed casinos might not offer responsible gambling tools, such as self-exclusion, for example. If you end up wagering in an unlicensed casino, the risks are definitely increased. More so, some unlicensed casino intentionally promote and encourage irresponsible playing.
Anyhow, Herake Casino may also be in the process of getting a license, so it eventually may become a good casino, who knows. If that's the case, though, they have definitely put the cart before the horse, which isn't a good sign either. Casinos should be ready when they launch. As a player, you want stable and tidy casinos with all aspects being impeccable. Herake Casino is no such place for now.

Deposit method | Minimum | Maximum | Processing time | Fee |
Crypto | $10 | Unspecified | Instant | Free |
We didn't fancy the deposit policy. The main problem is that only cryptocurrencies are accepted, which naturally restricts very many players. Not everyone can or wants to use crypto, so casinos should take this into consideration. On the other hand, some players may be attracted solely because of the swift and instant crypto deposits, but in general, we don't think that limiting people only to digital coins is a good strategy for a casino.
The minimum deposit is only $10, which is good – the casino is affordable. The maximum is unspecified, so it's possible that no limits apply at all. Some will find this a good feature, but we don't. The problem is that unlimited deposits may cause overspending, a scenario in which no player wants to end up in.
Each deposit is instant and free.
Withdrawal method | Minimum | Maximum | Processing time | Fee |
Crypto | $50 | $10000 | up to 48 hours | Free |
The withdrawal policy suffers from the same issue – only crypto. The minimum withdrawal is high – $50 or more, which is at least 2 and a half time more than the industry standard of $10 to $20. A maximum amount per transaction is not specified, but the sum will be affected by the withdrawal limits applied – $10 000 per day and $50 000 per month. The caps are relaxed enough, so Herake Casino gets a check here.
The withdrawal request processing time is up to 48 hours, which is a standard period. Nonetheless, the casino deals with crypto, so they should have had a much tighter timeframe. Some casinos, in comparison, deal with crypto withdrawal request from 5 to 10 minutes, and then the subsequent transaction takes seconds. From that perspective, we don't think Herake Casino's withdrawal processing time is adequate, especially given the fact that the house is promoted as a crypto casino.
Anyways, before a withdrawal request is submitted, players should make sure to complete the so-called rollover requirement of 1 time. Or simply put, to unlock cash outs, players need to wager their deposits at least once. That's a gaming and AML condition imposed by every casino, so nothing to worry about here.

Herake Casino has its disappointment moments when it comes to gaming. The thing is that sports betting is heavily advertised, and as a matter of fact, the Welcome Bonus banner features a football player, suggesting that Sportsbook is available. Well, in reality, players are limited to casino and live casino games only, so once again, Herake Casino fails at its marketing. Another utterly irritating small detail. The casino should have done a better job before its official launch.
Nonetheless, the casino libraries are decent enough as close to 7000 games are offered. There are slots, Live Casino table games, Game Shows, crash games, arcade and many other types of games. The casino works with a decent amount of gaming providers, most of which are leaders in the industry, so the majority of games you will find are of the finest quality. Speaking of games, see some more:
- Slots – Joker's Jewels, Gates of Olympus, Cosmic Cash, Gold Party, Sugar Rush, Mayan Cache, Super 7 Stars, Inner Fire, Floating Dragon, 888 Gold, Buffalo King Megaways, Mine Mine Quest, Medusa Money, Volcano Rising, Super Ace, Wild Spin, Wheel of Luck, Hot Pepper, Mariachi Fiesta, Big Bass Bonanza, and so forth.

- Arcade – Dice Twice, Scratch Match, Penalty Shootout, Patricks's Magic Field, Minesweeper, Double Roll, Spinball and so on.
- Live Casino – real dealer live tables of Blackjack, Baccarat, Roulette, Sic Bo, Texas Hold'em, Poker, and Teen Patti are offered. Overall, 66 games are offered, which is a disappointingly small number. Game Shows are there, though.
- Game Shows – The Greatest Cards Show, Big Bad Wolf, Crazy Time A, Salon Prive, Mega Fire Blaze Lucky Ball and others.
Conclusion
Herake Casino is a house with its positive and negative aspects, but unfortunately, the negatives one are overwhelmingly more. On the positive side, the casino has plenty of slots – 6600+ according to the page, and low minimum deposit requirements. The negatives are many – unverifiable license, restrictive payment policy, high minimum withdrawal, only one unattractive bonus, sports betting being advertised but not offered and a very small number of Live Casino games. Those are the issues with the house. We believe the company was too early with the launch of the casino. For now, we don't think it's a good idea to go and play in Herake Casino. If they improve, we may change our view, but the current situation isn't really optimistic.
