Instant Casino Review 2025 – Real Crypto, No Sponsors
We Put This Crypto & Fiat Casino to the Test… and Found Too Many Red Flags
Billing itself as “the world’s fastest online casino”, Instant Casino Launched in 2024 as a hybrid crypto-fiat gambling platform. At the time of writing, it offered over 3,000 slots, instant wins, table games, and live casino titles, plus sports and esports betting.
In this original CoinBets review, I’ll be signing up for an Instant Casino account, depositing real crypto, and placing real bets. I’ll be paying close attention to the welcome bonus, payment methods, games catalog, promos, loyalty rewards, and overall experience.
So, let’s find out if InstantCasino has got what it takes to compete with the world’s best crypto casinos.
License and Security
As always, before we get to the fun stuff, let’s check out Instant Casino’s credentials.
The site connection is secure and the security certificate is valid
Welcome Bonus
Instant Casino advertises a “200% Welcome Bonus Up to €7,500 + 10% Cashback” – but does it offer real value for most players? Let’s take a closer look.
Well, straight up, there’s a big red flag. The welcome bonus banner includes no link to the terms and conditions. Not good. The terms and conditions for any casino welcome offer should be clearly displayed up front – no exceptions. To find any Bonus Terms and Conditions, you need to look in the site footer – so, in reality, Instant Casino is trying to hide the small print. And, even then, it doesn’t make it clear if these are general bonus terms and conditions, or if they also apply to the welcome bonus.
Based on the limited information available, I assume the following terms apply to the welcome bonus:
- Bonus amount must be wagered 35x before it becomes withdrawable
- Cash funds will be used first, then bonus funds
- Feature buys are not allowed while using bonus funds
- Max bet per round while using bonus funds is $/€5
- Withdrawals are limited to 10x the bonus amount
- Game weighting applies to wagering (slots contribute 100%, live game shows 50%, roulette and live roulette 10%, dice games 0%, all other games 20%). There’s also a list of specific game titles that do not contribute
On the surface, this looks to be a fairly typical crypto casino sign-up offer, though the lack of information is troubling. For example, there’s no mention of how long the bonus lasts. I can only assume the cashback is the standard weekly cashback bonus offered by Instant Casino, which I’ll cover in the loyalty section later.
Note: there is a mention of the Welcome Bonus in the blurb at the bottom of the homepage, but the link is dead.
Opening a New Account
Opening an account with Instant Casino is not as quick or easy as at most crypto casinos. Despite being based in Costa Rica and licensed in Anjouan – two of the most lenient iGaming jurisdictions – the operators of this casino expect you to hand over significant amounts of personal information to join.
Also, there’s no option to register via third parties like Google or Steam, and no option to connect a Web3 wallet.
Enter your email address and choose a strong password, then click “Next.” Provide your mobile number and click “Next.” Provide your first name, last name, and date of birth, then click,”Next.” Enter your residential address and select your country. Enter a referral code if you have one, confirm you are aged 18+ and have read the Terms of Service. Set your marketing preference. Click “Sign Up & Play.”
Payments
Instant Casino supports a range of popular cryptocurrencies for deposits and withdrawals.
Crypto Deposits & Withdrawals:
To make a crypto deposit, select “Wallet”, then select “Crypto”. Enter the amount (in fiat currency), you would like to deposit, then click “Deposit.” Choose the specific crypto from the dropdown list, and check that the deposit amount is correct. Your unique Instant Casino deposit wallet address will be provided as an alphanumeric string and QR code.
To withdraw crypto, go to “Wallet” and select “Withdraw.” Choose “Crypto”, and enter the amount (in fiat currency) that you would like to withdraw. Select the appropriate cryptocurrency and enter the address of the crypto wallet you want to withdraw it to. Confirm the transaction and follow any prompts.
CoinBets.com Tip: Always double-check crypto wallet addresses after pasting them – you don’t want to fall victim to ‘PasteJacking’. This is when hackers exploit the copy-paste function to change wallet addresses to steal funds.
Note: Instant Casino also accepts deposits via Visa and Mastercard and allows withdrawals via bank transfer.
Buying Crypto
Unusually, Instant Casino does not provide a way to purchase cryptocurrencies on-site.
Game Selection
At the time of writing this InstantCasino review, the platform offered over 3,000 games from around 70 providers – respectable, but hardly exceptional. Unfortunately, as with so many smaller and mid-size casinos, the organization of the games catalog leaves a lot to be desired. Yes, if you select “Discover”, you’ll find some categorized games, but there are no handy filters or detailed categories to help you browse games easily – it’s just top-level categories, search by provider, or search by title.
Slots
As you’d expect, the slots make up the bulk of the Instant Casino games portfolio. You’ll find titles from big-name providers like Pragmatic Play, Hacksaw Gaming, Play’n GO, Novomatic, and Betsoft, alongside smaller studios like GameArt, Fugaso, and Atomic Slot Lab. However, while the choice looks okay, you may find some providers aren’t available in your region, significantly limiting your choice.
At the time of writing, popular slots at Instant Casino included Mustang Gold Megaways from Pragmatic Play, Good Luck Spell from Evoplay, Win-o-Mart from Relax, and Mighty Symbols Joker from Wazdan. Talking about Megaways, a search delivered over 110 slots – including hits like Duel of the Dead Megaways from Kalamba, Napoleon Megaways from Blueprint Gaming, and Buddha Megaways from 3Oaks.
Unfortunately, there’s no jackpot filter or category, but some big progressive jackpot slots are available. For example, a search turned up Mega Moolah Goddess and Mega Moolah: The Witch’s Moon from Microgaming.
CoinBets Experience
Instant Casino Kaboom! (Lambda)
As an exclusively branded Instant Casino slot, this game from Lambda stood out as something different to try. Basically, it’s all about bombs. Yep, there’s a whole case of explosive characters with creative names like outlOOw, monrOOe, gOOd, bOOmtrovet – well, you get the picture. The graphics have a cool retro feel to them, with plenty of neon and electrical sparks to add atmosphere, and the whole game feels full of energy.
In terms of gameplay, Kaboom is surprisingly deep. First up, the symbols pay anywhere, which adds a nice twist. Next, there’s an unlimited tumble feature, so winning symbols will be swapped out for new ones, giving more chances of making lucrative combos. Plus, there’s a bonus game triggered by landing 4 or more Scatters, and there’s the Mega-Bite multiplier symbol (in both the main and bonus game) that can pay anywhere from 2x to 500x. Also, if you’ve got deep pockets, there is a Bonus Buy feature for €100.
The maximum potential win is 10,000x your bet, and the official RTP of this slot is 97%. But how did I get on? Well, it was fun to play, but after betting €50 on Kaboom, I’d only won back €28.20, equating to an actual RTP of just 56.4%. Still, I’d definitely spend some more time with this game, if just for the visuals and atmosphere.
Legacy of Dead (Play’n GO)
After pretty much burning through my bankroll at Instant Casino without getting anything in return, I was down to my last €8. Feeling a little down, I thought I’d wager my last pennies on a classic slot – and picked Legacy of Dead from Play’n GO – a game originally released back in 2020.
Now, I’m sure you’re already familiar with this hugely popular game, but just in case you’re not, here’s a quick rundown. It’s a 5-reel, 10-payline ancient Egypt-themed slot featuring expanding symbols, a free spins bonus game, and a gamble option. The official RTP is 96.58%, and it’s rated as highly volatile.
So, what happened? Well, on my 5th spin I was down to just €3 and landed a tidy €100 win on a €1 bet! Nice! And that’s where I should have walked away. But I didn’t, and instead carried on playing another 95 spins, burning through most of my winnings. Still, at the end of it, after betting €100 in total, I was still €26.97 in profit – which is okay, all things considered. And yep, Legacy of Dead remains one of my favorite slots!
Crash & Instant Wins
Due to the almost complete lack of useful categories and filters, finding crash and instant win games relies on searching by title or provider. However, if you have the patience, you will find instant wins and provably fair games. For example, there’s Fruit Towers, 1 Tap Mines, and Aero from Turbo Games, and Aviator, Dice, Goal, HiLo, and others from Spribe.
Live Casino
Thankfully, Instant Casino’s live dealer games are better organized – kind of. If you select “Live Casino”, you’ll find games organized into Blackjack, Baccarat, Roulette, and Game Show categories. However, the choice is extremely limited, with most games provided by Pragmatic Play Live and a few from Bombay Live and Live88. Instant Casino’s choice of live game shows is particularly small, with just 8 Pragmatic games available – though this includes hits like Mega Wheel, Sweet Bonanza Candyland, and Dragon Tiger.
Table Games and Video Poker
Unfortunately, there’s no dedicated category for RNG (Random Number Generator) based table games and poker. Instead, you’ll find video roulette, blackjack, and baccarat lumped in with the live casino games. While this is far from ideal, you will find games like American Roulette from Platipus, and Blackjack Classic and Baccarat Supreme from OneTouch.
To find the video poker, you’ll need to use the search function. However, with around video poker games available, the choice is decent. Games on offer include Hold’em Poker 2 from Microgaming, Joker Poker from VoltEnt, 777 Poker from Pascal, and Caribbean Poker from Betsoft.
Bingo
Again, to find video bingo at Instant Casino, you’ll need to use the search function. It does, however, throw up over 60 games – which is pretty good. Most are from Caleta Gaming, including titles like Bingo Tesoro Maya, Bingo Hortinha, and Bingo Saga Loca. There are also around 20 keno games, with titles like Keno Rush from OneTouch, Keno Multiplay from Play Rogue, and Keno Party from Mascot Gaming.
Provably Fair Games
There’s no dedicated provably fair category or filter available at Instant Casino. However, as previously mentioned, you will find provably fair games from providers like Spribe.
Also, there’s a small selection of Instant Casino Original games – access these by selecting the “Discover” and then scrolling down the page. The games available are Plinko, Crash, Mines, Dice, and Hi-Lo. However, despite what you may assume, these don’t appear to be provably fair games (or, at least, no information is provided explaining how to check the results).
If you’d like to learn more about provably fair gaming, be sure to read the CoinBets Introduction to Provably Fair Gaming.
CoinBets Challenge: Hi-Lo – Gut Feeling vs. Logic
Which is best – betting with your gut feeling, or betting on the most probable outcome? Well, I decided to put things to the test with Instant Casino’s in-house original Hi-Lo game. Yep, for today’s CoinBets Challenge, I took €50 and placed 25 x €1 bets following my gut, and 25 x €1 bets on the most probable outcome. If the probability was 50/50, I went with either.
And this is how it went down. After betting the first €25 following my “razor-sharp gambling instincts”, I’d won a paltry €5.42. After betting the second €25, always going with the most probable outcome, I’d won a very similar €5.86. So that’s an RTP of 21.68% compared to 23.44%. Hmm… obviously, this was a small sample size, but it’s interesting. I’d guess the same will hold true even after hundreds of bets. Maybe I’ll try this again in a future CoinBets Challenge.
As for the Instant Casino Hi-Lo game, well, it’s like any other original Hi-Lo game – simple but entertaining. One thing that is disappointing, though, despite some blurb in the footer about Instant Casino being “home to provably fair games” (which I suspect is just for SEO purposes) – none of the original games seem to actually be provably fair.
Sportsbook
In common with most of today’s online gambling platforms, Instant Casino also offers a well-equipped sportsbook. There’s standard and live betting available on a range of popular traditional sports, including soccer, tennis, basketball, ice hockey, baseball, table tennis, cricket, and MMA. Additionally, esports betting is offered on popular disciplines like Counter-Strike, FIFA, NBA 2K, League of Legends, and Valorant.
Promotions
In addition to the Instant Casino welcome bonus, a few other promotions were running at the time of writing this review. Most were sports betting offers, however, there were a couple of casino promotions available, including:
Drops & Wins – The huge network promo from Pragmatic Play, with a massive €2 million monthly prize pool.
Kalamba Cash – Another network promo offering instant prizes, this time with an even bigger €3 million prize pool.
VIP Club
All Instant Casino players are eligible for 10% weekly cashback on their net losses.
Minimum deposit of at least €20 and wager on casino games or sports betting
Cashback calculated on net losses from Monday 00:00 UTC to Sunday 23:59 UTC
Cashback paid out as wager-free cash on Monday at 06.00 UTC
Min. €0.10, max. €10,000 per week
Additionally, Instant Casino runs a typical multi-level loyalty and VIP program. However, there, as you’ve probably guessed, no specific information is provided regarding how points are earned, or what benefits you get with each tier.
| Tier | Level Points Required |
|---|---|
| 1. Cruiser | 0 |
| 2. Glider | 900 |
| 3. Sprinter | 3,000 |
| 4. Rusher | 30,000 |
| 5. Dasher | 150,000 |
| 6. Igniter | 300,000 |
| 7. Stormer | 750,000 |
| 8. Trailblazer | 1,500,000 |
| 9. Thruster | 3,000,000 |
| 10. Shifter | 15,000,000 |
| 11. Specter | 75,000,000 |
Player Support
Instant Casino provides player support via live chat and email (support [at] instantcasino [dot] com). There’s also a very basic FAQ section providing some answers to common questions.
Additionally, there is an Instant Casino blog, which does feature some useful articles and guides. For example, Understanding the Baccarat Banker Bet: A Comprehensive Strategy Guide, and American Roulette vs European Roulette: Key Differences Explained.
Beyond that, you can also connect with and reach out to Instant Casino via social media platforms X (Twitter) and Telegram. An Instagram link is still showing, but the account seems to have been removed.
User Experience & Website Design
Uff, what can I say about the design of Instant Casino? It’s yet another white label “off the shelf” type deal. Really, there’s absolutely nothing to distinguish it from multiple other crypto casinos. It’s usable and payments are straightforward. However, the sign-up process involves more friction than usual, there’s a distinct lack of information about promotions, and the games catalog is clunky and poorly organized.
Overall, Instant Casino feels like a half-baked clone casino – like no one really cares about it. This feeling is further reinforced by the dead links and outdated information (like several lines still referencing a Curacao license).
Finally, the complete lack of safer gambling tools at Instant Casino is very concerning. While there’s the usual reference to responsible gambling in the small print, there’s no easy ability to set deposit, wagering, loss, or time limits.
In addition to English, Instant Casino is also available in:
Languages
Mobile apps
Unfortunately, there’s no dedicated Instant Casino mobile app, either for iOS or Android Devices. However, the web platform has been optimized for mobile browsers, and you can access the casino via Telegram.
Other Interesting Facts
At the time of writing this Instant Casino review, the brand was partnered with Juventus – Italy’s most successful football club. Thanks to the deal, fans will be able to win things like training ground experiences, player meet and greets, museum tours, and exclusive signed Juventus shirts and merch.
Overall Reputation
Righty, so that’s what Instant Casino has to offer, but what kind of reputation does the platform have? Let’s check out the ratings at some of the most popular online casino review platforms:
| Platform | Overall Rating | Notes |
|---|---|---|
 | 3.1 Average | (based on 1k reviews) |
 | Overall: 96.0/100 | Safety Index: Below Average |
 | CasinoRank: 5.8 | Player Rating: 6.3 (17 reviews) |
Okay, so what can we make of this? Well, the reviews on Trustpilot are very interesting. The majority of the reviews (36%) are 1-star and extremely negative, then the second most common are 5-star reviews at 31%. But, things may not be as they first seem. Browsing the 5-star reviews, most of the posters have written no other reviews and seem to have names that are “too stereotypical”. Basically, I suspect most are fake. However, when it comes to the 1-star reviews, the posters seem more legit – most having written several other reviews, and having far more believable usernames.
As for Casino Guru and AskGambers? Well, despite their claims to be objective, they are both major online casino affiliates with vested interests in promoting online casinos. If you’re interested in finding out more about what affiliate marketers get up to, check out the CoinBets guide to Spotting Fake or Dodgy Casino Reviews and Marketing Content.
Most concerningly of all, Igloo Ventures SRL, the owner and operator of Instant Casino, also owns and operates Lucky Block – a casino that has demonstrable links to Finixio, one of the iGaming industry’s most questionable marketing companies. This is the biggest red flag of all. For more about why this is concerning, check out our review of Lucky Block.
Instant Casino
Instant Casino’s mediocre games, intrusive sign-up, poor navigation, and lack of safeguards, combined with its ties to the Finixio/Lucky Block network-make it one to avoid entirely.
Verdict
Hmmm, what can we make of Instant Casino? Well, there’s nothing particularly great about Instant Casino. In terms of games, the choice is okay, but nothing special. When it comes to payments, the option to use crypto and fiat could be seen as a plus by some. But, that’s about the end of the okay things.
On the downside, the dearth of information, particularly the lack of accessible terms and conditions for the welcome bonus, is a huge red flag. Plus, sign-up is intrusive, and finding games is a pain due to the lack of filters and categories. And, of course, the fact that Instant Casino doesn’t care about responsible gambling is highly problematic.
But, the most concerning thing is that Instant Casino is operated by Igloo Ventures – making it a sister site of Lucky Block, and tying it directly to the sprawling Finixio gambling affiliate marketing operation. Hence, it is impossible to recommend Instant Casino.
But that’s just what I think. How about you? Have you played at Instant Casino? If so, why not write a CoinBets review and share your thoughts with the player community?
Thanks for reading, and until next time, stay safe and good luck!
