Mansion88 Review

As I mentioned, the company has been around in land-based gaming for a long time, but in the early 2000s, they started adding online sites to their portfolio. This site in particular launched in 2007, after the events that led to the enactment of UIGEA in the United States in 2006.

Mansion themselves are backed by very deep pockets. This is why you will see their name and logo emblazoned across the chests of many sports teams’ jerseys in Europe and Asia. The good news for our readers is that having those deep pockets means you should feel totally comfortable with your deposits being safe when playing at this site.

As for licensing, the company is licensed by the Cagayan Economic Zone Authority. If you have not heard of this regulatory jurisdiction, I am not surprised: it is typically reserved for Asian companies focused on taking Asian players. At this time, the site is not licensed by any other jurisdiction.

When a company offers multiple products with many different software providers, it can sometimes be little overwhelming for players. This is not the case with M88. Right from the first time I went to the website, I was very impressed with the navigation I found. There is a button on the left-hand side of the page which outlines all the available downloads for both your PC and mobile (they have some native apps that are available in countries where they are legal). This in itself was fantastic, but then when you add in the ability to sort all the casino games by the provider, it becomes sublime.

The marketing team at Mansion have outdone themselves with all the promotions they have listed on their site. Not only are they broken down into each category so you can easily find a promotion that suits the game you are playing, but the promotions, while straightforward, are plentiful. There are many reasons to be a loyal player at this site.

While I love the promotions that are listed on the site, it is evident that the company is focusing on Asian players, as when I click on several of the offers, I see that they are restricted to certain Asian countries only. When I see this, my first reaction is to be angry; when I calm down, I look for options available to me, as well as sending an email to support to find out if there is anything they can do to allow me to access these promotions. You should do the same; often the casino will at least offer you a special bonus to keep you happy.

While I applaud the casino for having a comp program that allows players to redeem for physical goods (see further down this page), I am astounded at the conversion rates for these points. In many cases, it might just be cheaper for me to FLY to Asia and buy the product and return home!

With this many software providers involved, the amount of content available at Mansion88 for casino players is vast. As I mentioned before, if you are interested in playing with a certain provider (maybe you like their graphics or are superstitious) then you can filter the games by the vendor. You also have the option of filtering by what is most popular, or newest games in the lobby. Any way you slice them up, you have hundreds of great games available at your disposal; let’s have a look at what’s there for you.

With this many games to choose from, you may not even care about what promotions are available at this site. I am here to tell you that is a foolish way of thinking; every promotion gives you the chance to improve your profit margin, which in many cases can be the difference between being a winning or losing player.

You can see all the available offers on the promotions page of the site; I am going to cover a couple that stuck out to me in a little more detail.

There are several Welcome Bonuses to choose from at this site. Many of them are restricted by game, by the vendor or by country of origin, but all in all, I like the fact that there are many options to choose from. Personally, I would choose the sportsbook option; I feel I get more value out of trying to collect my bonus on a sports bet than playing Table Games or slots. For the most part, the Welcome Bonuses are 100% match bonuses to a maximum of about $100. There is a special Playtech Slots Welcome Bonus of 300% to $100.

The wagering requirements for these bonuses range between 20x and 25x the Deposit+Bonus. This number is a little on the high side compared to many of their competitors; it is typically a sign of a casino that isn’t worried about new players as much as they are about keeping you loyal after your first session.

The site is very focused on rebates as a way to keep you as a loyal player. As opposed to bonuses that you get up front for making a deposit, in this scenario you are given a rebate on your play at the end of a week. What I really like about this promotion is that it is based on the handle (some bets you make), not your profit or loss. Unlike a Cashback promotions which rewards only losing players, these rebates offer you between 0.3% and 1% on your total bets on a weekly basis. Of course, there are some limitations to what games qualify, however, there is no maximum on the amount of rebate you can claim. If you are like me and like to have extended sessions online, then this is a very attractive promotion to take advantage of.

As the site is primarily Asian-focused, it is not at all surprising to see a list of payment options you probably haven’t seen before. Don’t worry, they do offer a couple methods that most European and North American gamblers are used to; getting your money to and from the site will not be an issue.

The Mansion88 Comp Program, called Mansion Rewards, is a comprehensive program that allows you to earn points for playing their games for real money, then exchange those points for a wide range of products or for cash back into your account.

In an attempt to allow players to earn points across all their products (except poker), the site uses the following calculation for earning points:

Quick & Easy rules of earning points! For every USD 80* (or equivalent currency) wager in Live Casino and USD 60* (or equivalent currency) wager in mSports / Sports / Casino / Playtech / Keno / Number Games / Virtual Sports you will receive 1 (One) M88 Point.

This is a little hefty compared to the majority of online casinos I have reviewed, but I give them credit for trying to accommodate all players with one rate.

When it comes time to redeem your points, you can head to their Rewards Store, where you will see options from Free Bets to electronics to Sporting Equipment. The conversion rate, as I mentioned, it pretty high; for example, you could redeem for an iPhone 7 for almost 100,000 points. At the earning rate, it could take you years to accumulate that many points. My recommendation is to take the Cash and Free bets as you can redeem for them much faster.

The Mansion Prestige Club is a very well designed, comprehensive VIP program tailored to suit the needs of their most loyal and highest value players. The club has several tiers to it, allowing you to move freely between them assuming you meet the minimum qualifications. The minimum qualification is total bets of $30,500.

Once you enter into the Prestige Club, you receive a full scope of benefits. Have a look at all the rewards members are given:

Overall, I am very pleased with what I see from this VIP Program; Mansion clearly knows how to treat their best customers.

Mansion88 offers a full suite of options for Customer Support. Starting with email, the company has several specific email addresses depending on what is the issue. I like that as it tends to speed up the response time a little bit by sending queries to staff most knowledgeable on the topics.

You can also give the casino a call, but bear in mind that there is no toll-free option so you will be paying long distance fees to their support office in Malaysia. I would recommend using either the Live Chat option or by contacting them on WhatsApp (which is an excellent display of how the site is managing communication by the times).

There is a lot to love about this site. Let’s start with the fact that you have access to Sports, Casino, Live Casino, Poker, Bingo and Lottery all from one centralized account; that is incredibly convenient. The casino features games from multiple providers, many of which are available to play via your tablet or mobile phone with ease. I don’t like that the promotions are mainly restricted to Asian countries, but I can take advantage of their VIP program instead. Their comp program has some great products available for redemption. However, the conversion rate for points means it is very tough to acquire those goods (please email us if you have managed to get any electronics from them!). All in all, this is an excellent site form a very professional company, so there is no reason for me not to recommend them to you if you are living in a country where you can access the games for real money.
