History
Operating since 2004, Platinum Play had more than a decade and a half of history when the source review was written. It attributes the casino’s ability to attract and retain members in part to its experienced owner, Digimedia Ltd. The company has run multiple online casinos since 2000.
Licenses / Security and Fair play
Platinum Play held an MGA licence and had qualified for an eCOGRA seal of approval repeatedly. It describes the MGA testing process as random, with the regulator’s testing team choosing when to examine the casino’s algorithms. The review also says eCOGRA published a report every 3 months showing gaming results, accessible by selecting its logo in the footer.
The review also describes measures intended to protect account details and payment activity. These included storing member funds separately from the casino’s operating accounts, using 128-bit SSL certificates to encrypt logon sessions and financial transactions, and following EU law processes for player privacy.
Bonus/Promotions Summary
The review notes casino promotions and a VIP programme, as well as an opt-in welcome bonus based on a deposit match for new players.
Welcome bonus
The welcome offer described in the source could total €800 across three deposits. All three had to be claimed within seven days of opening a Platinum Play Casino account, with at least €10.00 deposited at each stage.
- 1st Deposit: 100% deposit match, up to €400
- 2nd Deposit: 100% deposit match, up to €200
- 3rd Deposit: 100% deposit match, up to €200
According to the review, bonus funds sat in a balance separate from the deposited cash. Converting that bonus balance into cash required wagering it at least 50x. The source calls this a high threshold and notes that progressive slots counted 100%; that contribution rate does not make the bonus free cash or assure a jackpot payout.
The source lists these games and contribution rates toward the wagering requirement:
- 100% = Slots, scratch games and Keno (Re-spins count as 10%)
- 8% = Classic Blackjack tables
- 8% = Video Poker (except ‘All Aces’ and ‘Jacks or Better’)
- 0% = Every other game
The review states players had 2 months to meet the wagering requirement. It also cautions against stakes above 30% of the bonus value, or €8 per round and 50c per line.
Other Bonuses/Promotions
Promotions at Platinum Play were described as changing regularly. Consider using the bonus on progressive jackpot games, since clearing a 50x requirement can be demanding. That strategy offers no assurance of a jackpot win.
The review also singles out the Fortune Lounge Cruise promotion, which gave members a chance to win tickets for a luxury cruise.
VIP/Loyalty
The review says bets earned loyalty points redeemable for cash. It also describes an invite-only Velvet rope VIP programme, with tailored promotions, casino-provided VIP services and event invitations.
Payment Methods Summary
The source review describes banking options for Europe, Canada and New Zealand. It says deposits were converted to Euros or for Canadian and New Zealand residents, dollars. The review directs readers to the ‘Banking’ menu for the specific deposit and withdrawal methods then available.
How to make a deposit
The review describes a ‘Banking’ section and a minimum deposit of €10.00. Listed card options were VISA, Mastercard, Electron, Solo and Maestro debit or credit cards; other methods named were iDebit, ecoPayz, Click and Buy, Skrill, Trustly, Neteller and Interac Online. It says the account was credited immediately once the financial authority approved a transaction, with deposits recorded in the transaction history.
How to withdraw/cashout
Fewer withdrawal methods were listed than deposit options. The review says withdrawals were requested through the ‘banking’ section used for deposits. Its stated minimum was €10.00 and maximum €10,000 or the currency equivalent per 24 hour period.
Withdrawals had a 0-24 hour pending period, followed by processing time that varied by method. It lists VISA, Mastercard and Electron cards, iDebit, Skrill, Neteller, bank transfer and Interac as withdrawal options.
Game Selection summary
On the home page, the source review groups games under ‘Featured’, ‘Slots’, ‘Tables’, ‘Lice Casino’, Video Poker’ and ‘More Games’. The menu also includes scratchcards and ‘Vegas’ titles.
Casino Games Software Providers
The review names Microgaming as the supplier of virtual RNG games and Evolution Gaming as the provider used for live dealer titles.
Casino Slots
The review presents Platinum Play Casino’s video-slot catalogue as a notable feature, combining Microgaming’s leading titles with several long-standing favourites. It describes the games as grouped for easier browsing and directs readers to both the ‘Slot’ and ‘Vegas’ sections for the full selection available at the time.
Titles highlighted in the source include Break Da Bank Again, Avalon, Jurassic Park, Thunderstruck II and Jungle Jim. It says many games offered 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 50 or 100 pay lines. Some lines were fixed; others could be adjusted for penny-slot play down to 1 pay line. The review also notes slots with no pay lines and 243 ways or 1024 ways to win.
The review also points to Microgaming progressive jackpot slot games, including Mega Moolah and Mega Mollah Isis, alongside classic slot games such as Lots of Loot, described as a 3-reel game with a large progressive jackpot.
Casino Table Games
Microgaming’s catalogue extends beyond slots, according to the review, with options across the ‘Vegas’ and ‘Table Game’ sections. It lists over 30 blackjack games, 20 roulette styles, and the option to play 8 wheel roulette.
For poker against the house, the review names Caribbean, 3-Card, Texas Hold’em and Oasis formats. Other listed choices include craps, dice, keno, Red Dog and Sic-Bo, among other casino games.
Live casino
Evolution Gaming supplied the live dealer platform described by the review. It says the system recorded live bets and streamed tables in real time using HD webcams, while allowing players to interact with dealers and croupiers.
The review identifies Stud Poker, Double Ball Roulette, Casino Hold’em, 3-Card Poker, Speed Baccarat and Blackjack as Evolution Gaming specialities. It describes multiple versions and tables for each game. When a table filled, another dealer or croupier would open a new one; alternatively, players could wait for a preferred dealer using ‘bet behind’.
Mobile Casino review
The casino could be reached on a smartphone or tablet through a web browser. It lists Windows Mobile, iOS and Android as supported operating systems. After registering, players would see games supported on their device and could select a title to play. The review also says one login could be used on a Mac or desktop/laptop.
Customer Support
The review directs readers to the ‘Contact’ link in the footer, where it says support was offered through an email form or live chat. Both were described as open 24/7.

Start Playing at Platinum Play Casino
The source review describes Microgaming and Evolution Gaming as the casino’s software providers, with 3D graphics, animation, game features and live video delivered to mobile and desktop devices through the Quickfire system. It also says new games were added every month and progressive jackpot titles counted 100% toward bonus wagering requirements; that contribution rate does not predict a win.
