Bet Regal Casino Review

Offering over three different sports bonus packages, Bet Regal is a bonus haven for sports betting enthusiasts in New Zealand. But sports betting isn't the only thing this gaming site has to offer, it also has a standard online casino and live dealer lobby.

I find it very impressive that Bet Regal integrates predictive AI technology into its sportsbook for placing bets. Casino lovers aren’t left out as the gaming platform provides a generous bonus for Kiwis to splurge on pokies that catch their fancy.

Besides these classic attractions, Bet Regal also passed my safety tests as it’s fully registered and operated by Aspire Global International LTD, a brand that most experienced punters are familiar with.

If you’re wondering if the gaming platform has potential downsides, this Bet Regal review will provide you with a realistic view of what to expect at the site.

I’m usually more vested in a casino’s long-term promotions over the seasonal ones because, in my experience, that’s the best way to gauge the casino’s bonus policy. In this aspect, Bet Regal has more seasonal promotions than regular ones. The online casino joining bonus reward is a 100% match bonus. Unfortunately, its welcome sports offer isn’t available to Kiwis yet but other sports bonuses are.

Of course, the Bet Regal welcome bonus comes with the following T&Cs:

• The welcome bonus is valid for 21 days
• The casino bonus has a 35x wagering requirement
• The minimum deposit is NZ$10
• The maximum cashout amount from bonus winnings is NZ$10
• Casino bonus can only be used on slots

These T&Cs are pretty standard in most NZ online casinos. However; I found restricting the bonus to only slot titles a trifle stifling since I couldn’t explore other casino staples with my bonus. But if you’re a slots lover, it shouldn’t be a problem.

Bet Regal Casino Live Casino Bonus

Although Bet Regal has a dedicated live casino lobby, there are no specific bonuses tailored for this section. Sadly, you also can’t use your casino bonus to play the games here.

Bet Regal Casino Sports Bonus

Sports bettors on Bet Regal Casino can take advantage of the Royal Boost promotion for Acca Bets, System Bets and pre-selected bets provided they have more than 4 events on their bet slip. There’s also an early cashout promotion that you can tap into if you have a single or combo bet on Soccer, Tennis, Basketball, Cricket and Volleyball. 

Bet Regal Casino Bingo Bonus

I found no Bingo titles in the Bet Royal game catalogue, so there are also no Bingo bonuses on the site.

Bet Regal Casino Loyalty Programme

Bet Regal Casino offers an elaborate 7-tiered loyalty/VIP programme for loyal customers and high rollers. Players enjoy exclusive benefits, including live tournaments, Sunday spins, monthly cashback, a fast cashout process, a birthday bonus, personal offers, and an account manager.

Bet Regal Casino has its licencing and registration details boldly displayed at the bottom of the home page. The casino holds a Malta Gaming Authority licence with registration number MGA/CRP/148/2007.

In terms of security, Bet Regal Casino utilises SSL encryption to secure all players’ data. The information I found on their Privacy Policy page confirmed that the casino regularly carries out internal and external security audits to ensure data safety.

KYC

Like every other legit casino I’ve played at, Bet Regal requires players to complete their documentation process by uploading their documents before they can process their first withdrawal. Persons under the age of 18 can’t play at the casino and the vigorous KYC process ensures that it remains this way.

Documentation at the casino is simple since the ‘Document Upload’ button is located in the sidebar menu and you can quickly upload your docs even before you start playing.

User Data Protection

In line with the Data Protection Act, all documents are handled securely so you never have to worry about your information being used for the wrong purpose.

RNG & Fair Gaming

Besides its impressive collection of games from standard software providers who employ Random Number Generators (RNGs), Bet Regal also carries out an independent RNG test using secure software to ensure fair gameplay. The gaming platform also collaborates with gambling regulatory authorities and licencing organisations regularly to ensure compliance.

Customer Support

While I wouldn’t call the customer support options at Bet Regal robust, they’re functional and the support staff responds to queries promptly. The downside for me was that they’re not always available but you can reach them from 6 a.m. – 11 p.m. each day. 

NZ players can contact Bet Regal via email or live chat. But, if all you have are inquiries, I’d suggest that you check the FAQ page to find answers to your questions. Alternatively, the live chat page has a comprehensive list of issues you can pick from to hasten up the process.

Responsible Gaming

Not only did I find Bet Regal’s responsible gaming tools up to par, but I was also impressed by the fact that their dedicated responsible gaming support team received specialised training from GamCare. The gaming site provided players with the following tools to help control their gaming:

• Deposit limits
• Cool off period
• Self-exclusion
• Reality check

Gamers who might have a gambling problem are also not left out. You’ll find help from organisations like Gambling Therapy, Gamblers Anonymous and Helping Hand/IGC which the casino partners with.

Let me quickly get it out of the way that Bet Regal’s sportsbook is more robust than its casino section. That said, the casino section focuses mostly on pokies. So if you’re a table game lover, you might be a tad disappointed to find that there are only a handful of table games available. 

However, the available titles are from a large collection of providers including industry favourites like Evolution Gaming and Play’n Go. Although I think they could have done better in sorting and categorising the games for easy finding, you can search for games by provider or title.

Table Games

The titles you’ll find in the Bet Regal table game lobby are mostly classics like Blackjack, Baccarat, Online Roulette and Video Poker from leading game providers like Evolution Gaming, Play’n Go, and Ezugi. 

I found and played some of my favourite titles including:

• American roulette
• Deuces Wild
• European blackjack
• Jacks or Better

Pokies  

I found hundreds of fun titles spanning from Megaways to Jackpot slots in Bet Regal’s slot selection. Although I expected more titles given that the casino has been around since 2017, I still had a swell time exploring the slots lobby.  While it featured many legendary titles like Gonzo’s Quest and Book of Dead, those weren’t my targets.

I was more vested in the exciting new collection of slots I found here. Some of the ones I recommend are:

• Viking Runecraft 10
• Sevens & Suns
• Mr. Pigg E. Bank
• Zeldar’s Fortune
• Fire Stampede

Live Casino Games

The two words that best describe the live casino lobby at Bet Regal are quality and immersive. These words aptly summarise my experience in the live casino section. I found many quality titles from Evolution Gaming and Super Stake which meant that the graphics and sound quality were topnotch, to say the least.

If you’re looking for recommendations, try your hand at the following titles:

• Classic Auto Roulette Burgundy
• 7’s on Fire
• Dream Catcher
• Football studio
• Deal or no Deal

For slot lovers and sports bookies, Bet Regal Casino is a solid find. Players are fully assured of game quality and fairness, making the casino rank high in my book.

While I don’t consider the available payment options robust, you’ll find well-known brands like Visa, Neteller, Skrill, Astropay and Payz. My only grouse with the payment option is that if you’re looking to make transactions in NZ dollars, you can only use the Visa payment option. Every other casino online payment option doesn’t support NZ$. But it’s not a big issue since you can work around it by transacting in foreign currencies. 

I consider the bonuses generous and the lack of regular promotions is compensated for by plenty of seasonal promotions. Also, players who unlock certain VIP levels can start benefiting from regular and exclusive promotions so it’s a win-win situation.

I recommend Bet Regal Casino due to its simple registration process and top-notch security.
