Spit Fire Casino

Spit Fire Casino is not a good place to play. Despite the positive first impression we had of it, the house turned out to be lackluster in every way. For instance, it has a series of bonuses with some pretty terrible conditions, making them fairly difficult to withdraw. Speaking of withdrawals, there are a couple of clauses in the Terms and Conditions of Spit Fire Casino which restrict them in an unfair and unreasonable way.

But even if these were not the case, there is barely anything to play with this casino! It has games from a tiny amount of developers, and we consider this to mean that the house simply cannot compete with its peers. Overall, there is a lot more to say when it comes to the downsides of Spit Fire Casino . Let's go over everything you need to know about it:

Bonuses

Here is a list of all the promotions which are available with Spit Fire Casino:

At first, these seem to be varied and generous promotions, but the wagering requirements on all of the deposit bonuses are way overboard. For instance, two of the Welcome Packages have them set to 80x, and pretty much every other promotion sets them to 45x. These requirements are a common part of the bonuses of most casinos nowadays and represent a number of times you are expected to turn over the funds you receive from the promotions. Usually, such turnovers are between 30x and 40x for the kinds of promotions Spit Fire Casino offers. So, as you can see, it is way over the line, in particular with its Welcome Bonuses!

Combine that with a restrictive cash out limit of 10x the initial deposit, and you can see how the bonuses on offer here are not only difficult to cash out, but also simply not all that rewarding in practice. The only thing about them which is actually reasonable is the minimum deposit requirement. It is set to $20 for all but one of the promotions, which is the only thing about them which is somewhat in line with what other casinos offer! Still, let's take a closer look at the bonuses at hand:

• The firs two Welcome Packages in our table offer several deposit bonuses which the player needs to claim in sequence.  The regular package offers three of them – a 100% First Deposit bonus of up to $1200, a Second of 100% up to $1200 and a Third bonus of 150% up to $1200. Note that the amount of money you need to deposit is $20 for each of them and not $20 in total. There is a bundle of 50 Free Spins as part of each of the three, making for a total of 150 Spins. Overall, these are decent amounts, but we cannot see why the wagering requirement for them would need to be 80x!
• The other, High-Roller Welcome Package is a more expensive set of two bonuses. Each of them requires you to deposit $200 at least to claim. What can you get for that deposit? The First deposit bonus adds 200% of the funds you cash in, up to $1000, and the Second – 300%, up to $1500. Once more, there are 50 Spins up for grabs as part of each bonus. As we mentioned above, there is a 10x cash out limit for these funds, which is based on the size of the initial deposit. With bonuses of 300%, this means the actual amount of money you can win with the promotion is along the lines of 3x. This is very restrictive, and rather counter-intuitive in our view. High rollers need to be rewarded for their contributions, but they will instead have to comply with lower cash out limits.
• There is a third package of bonuses, called the Table Games Welcome Offer. With it, Spit Fire Casino awards Table games fans with a set of two bonuses, adding 30% and 40% of their deposit as Bonus cash, up to $1000 and $1500. The multipliers here are lower, but at least the wagering requirement is mercifully low, sitting at 45x. Note that it is still way higher than we would consider acceptable!

After you have played through the welcome bonuses, there are a couple of Daily Deposit Bonuses which are up for grabs. What's notable about these is actually the fact that they don't stack with each other, and if you have an active bonus you need to cancel it to claim one of them. This somewhat defeats the point of having so many promotions. Still, here is what they are:

• The Monday Bonus has the most generous multiplier for your funds from these promotions – you can get up to 100% of whatever you deposit, with a maximum of $150. There are 20 Free Spins up for grabs too.
• The next promotion you can claim is the Tuesday Bonus. It has twice the maximum bonus amount of the previous promotion – $300, with a decent 90% multiplier. This promotion does not feature Free Spins.
• Deposits on the third day of the week will be able to qualify you to receive the Wednesday Bonus. It comes with a $250 maximum and a 75%, making it worse than the one above in every way.
• The fourth bonus from this series which Spit Fire Casino offers is the Thursday Bonus. It grants you up to $350, with 65% of the deposit you've placed counting towards it.
• Cashing in on the following day, you can claim the Friday Bonus. It has the same maximum as the previous promotion, with a lower multiplier of 60% of your funds, and a bundle of 20 Free Spins.
• Deposits made on the first day of the weekend can claim the Saturday Bonus. It is a mediocre 55% boost in funds up to $250.
• The promotions are rounded out by the Sunday Bonus, which gets you 70% of the deposited sum of money, up to $300, as well as 30 Free Spins.

We would also like to mention the Loyalty Program of the casino. If you stick around and deposit with it, you will be rewarded in several ways. From various exclusive deposit incentives to birthday bonuses and account managers, there is supposedly a lot to gain from it. But the conditions of these exclusive perks are not mentioned, and, as you saw, Spit Fire Casino has a pretty poor track record when it comes to the rules of its bonuses. So we wouldn't count on the ones available as part of the Loyalty Program to be any different.

License

The only positive aspect of this casino is the regulation over it. Here is what it has to say about the license that it holds:

The claim in the paragraph we just showed you is that the house is licensed buy the Antillephone, which is one of the four regulatory bodies tasked with overseeing the egaming market of Curacao. They have managed to create the most popular jurisdictions for online casino operators. However, before we take a look into what protections the regulatory framework of the casinos licensed there are required to provide you, let's see whether the claim we mentioned can be verified. Here is the license of the casino, pulled from the register of the Antillephone:

It proves that the house is regulated, just like it claims. So, let's go over what this means for the player:

• During your time with any modern casino, you would be required to submit a lot of personal information. That is necessary in order to provide the house with what it needs to comply with AML and KYC measures. As per the requirements of the regulatory bodies, this needs to be encrypted using some of the strictest security protocols casinos have access to, which makes it leaking pretty much impossible!
• The next important area of focus for regulators is problem gambling, and more specifically, how to curb it! To achieve that, they need to provide players with a ton of useful information about what problem gambling looks like, and where to seek help if they need it. There are also certain self-exclusion measures which you will have access to – you will be able to set custom time out warnings, as well as opt in to create your own deposit limits. You can even close your account if you need to! Casinos need to comply with these requirements, or face harsh penalties from their regulator.
• Last but not least, the games you can play with licensed houses are true games of chance. Everything you can bet on nowadays has a random number generator, a complex algorithm which is used to determine whether you win or lose. In order to verify there is no foul play, regulators require casinos to submit said generators for audits. These are performed by independent professionals, who are able to ascertain whether the outcomes of the games are fair.

These are some of the reasons why we recommend playing only with licensed houses. Back to Spit Fire Casino, there is a bit more information we'd like to share about the casino. Here is the list of languages it has translated its website to:

Languages: English, Russian, French, German, Spanish, Italian

And here is the list of countries where said website is not available, and from where the house does not accept new players:

Restricted countries: Australia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, United Kingdom, Show All, Afghanistan, Algeria, American Samoa, Angola, Aruba, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba, Botswana, Brunei Darussalam, Bulgaria, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Congo (Brazzaville), Cook Islands, Cuba, Curaçao, Cyprus, Côte d'Ivoire, Egypt, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Fiji, France, French Guiana, French Polynesia, French Southern Lands, Georgia, Greece, Guam, Guinea, Heard and McDonald Islands, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kenya, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Macau, Macedonia, Malawi, Malaysia, Malta, Marshall Islands, Mayotte, Micronesia, Moldova, Mongolia, Morocco, Mozambique, Nauru, Netherlands Antilles, New Caledonia, Niger, Nigeria, Niue, Norfolk Island, Northern Mariana Islands, Norway, Pakistan, Palestine, Philippines, Qatar, Reunion, Romania, Russian Federation, Rwanda, Saint Martin (French part), Samoa, Sao Tome and Principe, Serbia, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Sint Maarten (Dutch part), Slovenia, Somalia, South Africa, South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Syria, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Timor-Leste, Turkmenistan, Uganda, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United States, United States Minor Outlying Islands, Uzbekistan, Vatican City, Vietnam, Virgin Islands, U.S., Wallis and Futuna Islands, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe

Deposit and Withdrawal

Below is a table of the deposit methods and currencies the casino accepts:

Currencies: Euro (EUR), US Dollar (USD), Canadian Dollar (CAD), Brazilian Real (BRL), Mexican Peso (MXN)

Overall, the house has decent conditions for cashing in. It requires a minimum deposit of $20 or more, which is standard, there are a decent amount of methods you can use and there are no fees either. Things are not so great when it comes to withdrawals. Before we delve into them, here is a set of clauses from the Terms and Conditions of the casino which limit how much you can win:

These clauses are absolutely unfair, and we see no reason why they should be in force! What is the point of limiting players to winning just 10x their initial deposit during the lifetime of their account? If anything, this discourages people from making further deposits to the casino and hurts its own playerbase! But that is not the only serious issue with the withdrawal policy of the house. Here is what it looks like:

Every aspect of the house's withdrawals is wrong! We are somewhat impressed that there is nothing redeemable about the policies of Spit Fire Casino. Take the minimum withdrawal requirement for instance, which ranges between $100 and $300. Other casinos set that to much lower amounts, usually between $10 and $20. Considering the minimum deposit with Spit Fire Casino is five times lower, we cannot see this as anything else but a malicious policy.

Another issue are the processing times – they are said to be up to seven days! This is simply not acceptable either, and there is no good reason a casino will need so much time to clear a withdrawal request. We should also mention that in order to file such a request you need to wager your deposits at least once. At least this is a common enough AML measure, though we should say that some houses still provide you with a way to cash out at the expense of some withdrawal fee.

Speaking of withdrawal fees, you can make four free withdrawals every month. After that is used up, you will be expected to pay $60 for each further request! And what's more, you are limited to cashing out $1500 at most every week, which is a very small limit!

At least Spit Fire Casino does not have the nerve to charge withdrawal fees on top of all that!

Games and Game Suppliers

There are barely any games to play here. This is because Spit Fire Casino has not managed to partner with all that many Games Suppliers. Here is a list of the ones we saw mentioned on its website:

Game providers: Betsoft, Booming Games, 3 Oaks, Evolution, Habanero, Hacksaw, Leap-Gaming, Games Global, Mascot, NetEnt, Platipus, Play'n GO, Playson, PragmaticPlay, Red Tiger Gaming, Relax Gaming, Spinomenal, Spribe, Tom Horn, Wazdan, Yggdrasil

This is barely over 20 developers, while most houses nowadays have the games of 50 at least. Still, let's go over what you can play:

• Slots: Even though it does not have that many slots, the casino has popular titles like Big Bass Bonanza, Book of Dead, Inca's treasure, Starburst and Wolf's Gold.
• Table Games: The house features several classic versions of Baccarat, Poker, Blackjack and Roulettes, playable with both virtual dealers and live dealers.
• Game Shows: The only Game Show to tune in to is Sweet Bonanza, and we consider this to be way too little. Of course, this is far from the only issue with the house, which does not have crash games, virtual races, scratch cards and other casual games as well as many others.

Conclusion

To sum everything up, we simply cannot recommend the casino. Even if you can have fun with its exceptionally limited catalog of games, you will need to comply with an insane policy on withdrawals to cash out. Stick to other, better houses!
