Canadian Review of Sun Vegas Casino

Sun Vegas Casino is a UK-based betting site providing bonuses to players new and current. There's a good range of games to enjoy at this casino, which has something of a tabloid newspaper branding. The downside for players from Canada is that registration requires residency in the UK or Republic of Ireland, so unless you live in the British Isles it's not for you. But if you do, then give our review a look to find out all the details you need. Otherwise, Canadian players can look at our awesome list of casinos here.

Sun Vegas Casino Signup Bonus for Canada

New players at Casino Sun Vegas can take advantage of a welcoming deposit matching bonus. This applies only to the first deposit made, at the rate of 100% up to a limit of £300. A minimum deposit of £10 is required, and there is a 50x wagering requirement. In addition, only slots are covered by this promotion and Skrill deposits do not count. The wagering requirement is on the high side, but the maximum allowed is also relatively high, with a standard matching rate. It's a decent, though not fantastic, introductory promotion.

Ongoing Promotions

All existing players benefit from loyalty points, earning 1 loyalty point for every £10 bet. Earn enough points and you become a VIP, which means you can earn points more rapidly. Players can easily check how many points they've accumulated from within their account, and can convert them to money (providing they have sufficient points) whenever they wish. This is a common sort of program for players, and so long as you're playing regularly and either ahead or roughly even it's a nice bonus, rewarding you for something you'd do anyway, and coming with zero fuss.

Playtech Games and Software at SunVegas Casino

The site has a broad range of games provided by Playtech, including exclusive slots (view free slots here) such as The Sun Winning Headlines. If legendary jackpots float your boat then be sure to check the Age of Gods series, which offers mythological themes and epic jackpots (six figures at the time of writing). Jackpot Giant dwarfs even that, with a seven figure payout for the luckiest of gamblers. Slots are searchable and games divided into convenient categories (including jackpots) although there aren't any filters.

Card sharks and wheel jockeys have plenty of table games to peruse. Roulette comes in 20 flavours, including European and American, as well as Superman and other less common types. There's the same number of blackjack games, which has live dealer options (as does roulette). Video poker players have a pick of 10, including Holdem and Pai Gow, whilst the Arcade section includes craps and keno (baccarat is available in the live casino).

There's a pretty good range available to play, particularly on the slots, roulette, and blackjack fronts, plus plenty of live dealer options. Not many Canadian online casinos have a vast selection of live dealer games, and Sun Vegas owns this specialty that makes it a great destination for fans of this gambling mode.

SunVegas Mobile Casino

The site is compatible with mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets (a recently expired bonus related to these devices), but it is unclear which specific operating systems are supported.

Licensing and Security

SunVegas Casino is licensed and regulated by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission and the Gambling Commission of Great Britain. As the UK stands at the forefront of online gambling regulation, this is a very good thing. Unfortunately, the site is only open to residents of the UK and Republic of Ireland. This does not strictly rule out players from Canada, but unless they actually dwell in the British Isles it seems this site is not accessible to them.

In order to play you may be asked to verify your identity through documentation, which could include your passport, driving licence, or a utility bill. Players won't be expected to provide such documentation instantly, but if it isn't forthcoming within a certain period this may prevent them from playing further. The site also uses a random number generator (RNG) which is tested and verified by a third party, to ensure randomization of results from the various games.

Deposit and Withdrawal Options For Canadian Players

Credit and debit cards are the most obvious options, and Visa and Mastercard are available on both a deposit and withdrawal basis. No fees are attached but waiting times for withdrawals/processing can be several days and Sun Vegas Casino itself suggests using alternate methods. PayPal offers fee-free and instant deposits plus faster withdrawals than cards, with fellow e-wallet Skrill also available. As a deposit-only option, Paysafecard is a pre-paid means of instantly putting in money without incurring any fees, although you will need a secondary banking method in order to withdraw funds.

Due to the requirement for players to be resident in the British Isles, most players will be using GBP (and anyone from Canada living overseas is unlikely to be using CAD in the UK or the Republic of Ireland anyway).

Customer Support at Sun Vegas Casino

Customer support can be reached through either e-mail or telephone. This is not, however, 24/7, with the team accessible from 8am to 1am.

Our Overall Rating

There's quite a lot to like about SunVegas Casino, including a good range of games to play, a UK licensing arrangement, and bonuses for players old and new. The limited selection of funding options is a drawback, but the kicker for most Canadians in this review must be the residency limitation. If you're from Canada and happen to live in the UK (or Republic of Ireland) then it's worth a look, but otherwise that geographical restriction is going to put the casino off-limits.
