Casino Midas Review

Casino Midas has been in existence since 2012. Now that it has been in business for 5 years, I can consider it a casino that is likely here to stay; if it hasn’t run out of money or into too many issues by now, then you can rest easy that it isn’t going anywhere.

The owners of the casino are listed as the Midas Entertainment Casinos, based in Curacao. This doesn’t tell me much about them, but I did some research and determined that they aren’t owners of any other online casinos, despite what some other sites would have you believe. The casino is also licensed in Curacao, which doesn’t really amount to much in the way of player safety; this jurisdiction is one of the easiest to acquire a license and as long as their fees are paid, the regulatory board tends to turn a blind eye to the activities of their operators.

This casino has only one supplier: Real Time Gaming. The Costa Rica based software supplier has been developing games for over twenty years, and has remained one of the only software companies that still accept U.S. players. This makes the decision by Casino Midas to block Americans even more confusing.

RTG has built an impressive suite of games, including some awesome slots titles. We’ll get into a full review of the games a little later on. Their games can be played via download or in a PC browser.

Right on the homepage of the website, you see a scrolling banner that alerts you to the fact that there are over 7 million USD in progressive jackpots up for grabs at Casino Midas. These progressives are network-driven by many of the RTG licensees, but what that means for you is that they grow more quickly, making them more likely to burst more often!

I don’t often comment on this, but I have to say that the Casino Midas website was one of the most straightforward, clean sites I have ever reviewed. All of the information was laid out simply, making it easy to find what I was looking for within a couple of clicks.

I am not sure if their web developers are independent contractors, but if they are, then they could be making a lot of money cleaning up a lot of cluttered online gaming sites.

At this time, there are no Live Dealer games available at this casino. This is too bad, as I know that RTG partnered with a live dealer studio to be able to offer integrated games to their current licensees. I hope that the casino decides to take them soon; these games are increasingly popular and provide a whole new layer of enjoyment to the player.

When you play at a casino, and you happen to win big, you should be able to get your money out quickly and without any hassle. At Casino Midas, they have a limit of $3,000 per week that you can withdraw.

I don’t like this as the casino apparently allows you to make as large a deposit as you want without issue. I hope the company revisits this policy soon and loosens it up for their players.

The casino has several different types of ongoing bonuses, all of which you can see on their promotions page. Also, you should expect to receive many emails from this casino with enticing offers to get into the game and play. For this review, I am going to focus on the two Welcome Offers that are available for new players. Here is how they work:

That’s right. You can get a $3,333 match bonus if you are willing to make that big deposit. Bear in mind that to earn that whole bonus, you will have to meet the wagering requirement of 25x the deposit+bonus, which may be tough for most players.

Since the casino has chosen not to take players from the United States, they opened the door to having more traditional forms of payment processing. However, not having a license from Malta or the UK hinders their efforts to sign on with many of the European-facing providers. Regardless, there are a good number of options for you to make your deposits and withdrawals.

The Comp Program at Casino Midas is very easy to understand. When you are playing real money games, you earn one comp point for every $1 you wager. That sounds great but bear in mind that to redeem these points for cash, you need to convert them at a rate of 1,000 for $1 (and the minimum amount you can redeem is 3,000). This is a standard comp program, with a couple of twists: when you are playing their Game of the Month, you earn double points and depending on where you stand on the VIP Program, you could also earn more bonus points.

Casino Midas offers players customer service 24 hours a day via live chat, email, and telephone. Well, at least they say they do. In the two hours I spent reviewing the site on the day I wrote the review, the Live Chat agents were always busy, deferring me to a web form to “leave them a message.” I am not sure if there were actually agents there, as I can’t imagine why they would be so backed up with customer inquiries.

I will test it again another time and will update this review if things change.

This casino is one of the mid-tier casinos on the market today. With Real Time Gaming as their supplier, you are going to get high-quality games, but not as many as a licensee of one of the larger software companies. The progressive jackpots are huge, which is a nice touch if you are a slots player. This is especially true if you take advantage of their aggressive slots-only Welcome Bonus.

Overall, I love the look and feel of the site, and I want to see these guys succeed. You can see the attention to detail put into this casino when you look at the website development and programs like their VIP Program. I would have no problem recommending this casino to our readers, and if you end up making a deposit here, we would love to hear about your experience so we can continue to improve our reviews.
