New Retro Casino

New Retro Casino makes a good immediate impression with its website, which, fairly said, is a nice venue. It also offers slots from leading gaming providers and overall hefty bonuses, but with that, the good news comes to an end. Beneath the sleek websites, we found many problems – the casino operates without a license, does not reveal critical conditions related to gaming and indeed promotes a fake company – the entity Newretrocasino Ltd seems to be a fictitious company. It may be an offshore business, but at any rate, the shadiness surrounding this casino is not to be neglected. An interesting fact is that they mostly target players from Russia since the default website language is Russian, and their Telegram channel is entirely in Russian – you cannot see a single English word there.

That said, let's see what this casino actually looks like, and just a spoiler, we are not really impressed with it and would recommend that players should think twice before wagering in New Retro Casino. Let's get into detail now.

Languages: English, Russian

Bonuses

The bonus promotions offered by New Retro Casino are actually enticing. With their Welcome Offer, which consists of first, second, third and fourth deposit events, you can altogether claim up to 600% and 700 free spins. The maximum cash bonus amount from all four deposits can reach 80 000 RUB, which is somewhere near $950 to $1000 in today's exchange rates.

Then there are two match bonuses, one of which is available only if you deposit cryptocurrencies. The wagering requirement for all promotions is the same, and no cash-out limit is specified. An interesting feature is that all free spins can be wagered on any slot you want, with no restrictions whatsoever, at least, that's what the house says. We shall warn you, though, that some of the conditions mentioned on the website are not accurate, so take every word in this review with a pinch of salt.

• First Deposit Bonus – easy to guess. Once you fund your account for the first time, you can claim 200% on top of your deposit, plus up to 300 free spins included. The minimum qualifying deposit is 500 RUB, with the max cash bonus to get being 30 000 RUB (around $350). Before a withdrawal, you should complete a wagering requirement of 30 times with no cash-out limit specified. To claim the bonus, you should use the FIRST1 promotion code during the deposit process.
• Second Deposit Bonus – after your second deposit, by using the code FIRST2, you will claim 200% up to 20 000 RUB ($230). Free spins are also included – up to 200, all of which are free to use on any game. The minimum deposit is 500 RUB ($6). We cannot help but admit that the deposit requirement is rather good and apparently lower than the industry standard – most casinos usually ask for $20 to let you participate in bonus promotions. The low requirement, however, doesn't make New Retro Casino a good house, and you'll see why we say so. Anyhow, the wagering requirement before a withdrawal is 30 times with no cash-out limits specified.
• Third Deposit Bonus – with your third deposit, you should use the code FIRST3 to claim 100% up to 15 000 RUB ($175) with 100 free spins included, as well. The minimum deposit is 500 RUB again, with the wagering requirement staying the same – 30 times before a withdrawal. Cash-out limits are not specified.
• Fourth Deposit Bonus – the last event of the Welcome Offer requires you to deposit 500 RUB and use the promo code FIRST4. By doing so, you will claim 100% up to 15 000 RUB with another 100 FS in the pack. The wagering requirement doesn't change – 30 times again, with no cash-out limit. What New Retro Casino doesn't specify, though, is for how long the bonuses are valid. Usually, casinos set some limits, let's say 7 days to wager the bonus or 10 days to wager the free spins, for example. In this case, New Retro Casino does not specify any such conditions, which is a downside – everything regarding playing should be revealed timely. Keep this in mind.
• Crypto Deposit Bonus – in this promotion, you should deposit cryptocurrencies to activate the bonus. The minimum deposit jumps to 1500 RUB ($17.5), while at the same time, the bonus awards significantly shrink – you get only 50% up to 30 000 RUB, with only 10 free spins included. The wagering requirement is 30 times with no cash-out limit. The promo code is CRYPTO.
• Weekend Reload Bonus – this one looks better than the crypto bonus. In this promotion, you deposit 500 RUB to get 100% up to 15 000 RUB plus 100 free spins. The code you should use is WR100. As for the rest of the conditions, everything stays the same – 30 times the wagering requirement with no cash-out limit specified.

Before we continue and get to the most essential part of the review, we shall also mention another issue. That is, New Retro Casino does not have bonus TCs for each promotion, which is a substandard approach – the info on each bonus is reduced to a leaflet. What's more, their entire Bonus Policy document consists of a few paragraphs with little to no useful information whatsoever. In it, New Retro Casino fails to specify anything in particular about the deposit bonuses, which is frustrating, as many conditions remain unknown – the validity of the awards, further restrictions that may apply depending on gaming providers and so on. What they mention, though, is that no deposit bonuses are possible, with the max winnings for such a promotion being 10 times the award. To claim what you gained, you should initiate a deposit, though keep this in mind wherever the no-deposit promotion is available.

License

New Retro Casino operates without a license, which is a big problem. This means that no one controls the house, which may be harmful to all players wagering in this casino. What's more, in this case, we could not even verify the company that's promoted on the website – Newretrocasino Ltd. Such an entity doesn't seem to exist at all, but even if it does, it would be some shady enterprise lacking credibility.

On the other hand, however, we spotted a link on the website that redirects to another casino – B2B Slots, which is run by a Russian company named ООО “ГРАНИТ”, which is headquartered in Rostov. Apparently, New Retro Casino and B2B slots are linked to each other since both houses target Russian customers. Still, none of the facts change – New Retro Casino operates without a valid license, so think twice before depositing there.

If you are looking for casinos, your best choice would be the authorised houses with licenses. The most secure are those regulated by UKGC in Britain or MGA in Malta, as both regulators are top-tier gaming authorities. On the other hand, though, you should not expect mind-blowing bonuses from British or Maltese casinos. If you are after promotions, check out casinos licensed in Curacao. The lower licensing fees, the more favourable tax regime and generally the more relaxed regulatory environment in Curacao attract the majority of online casinos, allowing them to offer more games and bonuses for players.

Now, let's head on to another issue – the restricted countries. Generally, all casinos with no US license should restrict North American players, as every unauthorised offering effectively breaches the laws in the country. New Retro Casino should restrict registrations from the US, but in reality, it doesn't. Indeed, you can register, deposit and play from any country around the world, which undeniably shows that New Retro Casino does not care about international gaming laws. What they say is that players alone should restrict themselves, depending on their local regulations, which is a totally unacceptable approach. This is fishy! See below.

Restricted countries: United States

Deposit and Withdrawal

Currencies: Bitcoin (BTC), Russian Ruble (RUB), Tether (USDT), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC)

The deposit methods with the most critical conditions are seen above. We shall mention, though, that this information was derived from our own experience with New Retro Casino. The minimum deposit across all methods is 200 RUB ($2.30), which is really favourable, actually. The big problem, in this case, is that on their website, they claim that the minimum deposit is 50 RUB, a conflicting piece of information that further cements our view that New Retro Casino is not to be trusted right away.

As for withdrawals, the minimum is 100 RUB, except Crypto – 1000 RUB or more, all being free of charge. The maximum varies according to different methods, with Kiwi being the most restricted – no more than 15 000 RUB. The processing time is said to be 48 hours, but there are strings attached – 48 hours period applies to withdrawals for up to $150. If you cash out more, the time increases:

• Up to $300 withdrawal – 5 business days
• $300 – $1500 withdrawal – 7 business days
• $1500+ withdrawal – 10 business days

Maximum daily and monthly withdrawal limits are not specified, and New Retro Casino doesn't even utter a word about such provisos. Inactive account fees aren't mentioned anywhere, too. The rollover requirement is 3 times, meaning that you should wager your deposit 3 times before a withdrawal.

Games and Game Suppliers

Game providers: NetEnt, Play'n GO, PragmaticPlay, Novomatic, Igrosoft, Yggdrasil

The number of gaming suppliers does not impress – only 6 altogether. The same applies to the number of games – you'll hardly find more than 100 games, and if compared to other casinos, that number seems ridiculous – some houses we previously reviewed offer nearly 9000 games. Nonetheless, among this small selection, you can find well-known slots like Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza, Book of Ra, Bananas Go Bahamas, Legacy Of Dead, Reactoonz, Legacy of Inca and Hot Safari, to name but a few. Table games like Roulette and Blackjack are also present, but we didn't see Poker, Baccarat, Keno or Dice, and overall the selection is pretty poor – only 8 games altogether. With that in mind, it will be no surprise to you that Live Casino is missing. All in all, New Retro Casino has nothing to offer.

Conclusion

By and large, we have the following to say. The positive features of New Retro Casino are the bonuses with plenty of free spins and the presence of some leading gaming providers like Yggdrasil, NetEnt and Pragmatic. The low minimum deposit can also be considered a plus, but the rest of the story is entirely negative. The casino operates without a license, the number of games is disappointingly low, the TCs contain misleading information, and the company they promote is highly controversial – it may not even exist! So, with those things considered, it's apparent that New Retro Casino is not a good casino.
