Piratepots Welcome Bonuses

This will be a familiar story to anyone who’s played at any of the Piratepots sister sites before. The casino offers a one-off 250% boost on first deposits only, capped at a colossal £10,000. You only need to part with £20 or more to secure the bonus, so you can opt for a far smaller reward if you like. The bonus can only be used on slots, and is somewhat hampered by the x45 wagering requirement that it’s been saddled with.

Like nearly every Green Champions SRL casino, Piratepots prefers players to pay and play using cryptocurrencies. If you have crypto to spend, you can take an alternative 150% matched deposit welcome promotion capped at the value of one entire Bitcoin or £100,000, whichever is the higher at the time you make your qualifying deposit of at least £30. This version of the promotion also comes with 150 free spins, and wagering requirements are slightly kinder at x40.

Sports bettors get a welcome promotion of their own, but it’s much smaller. Deposit £25 or more as a first deposit and wager it on any event with odds of 5/1 or greater to get a free bet worth up to £100, matched at 100% of whatever your first deposit was. The free bet is subject to the same staking rules as the qualifying deposit, and can’t be split. You’ll also need to contact support to get it added to your account, as the process doesn’t happen automatically.

Other Promotions

There’s plenty to go at in this category, but the best of the pirate booty is once again reserved for those who use cryptocurrencies. Deposit crypto-equivalent £25 to get a 150% bonus capped at the value of one Bitcoin (or £100,000) in what’s effectively a repeat of the crypto welcome bonus. You can claim this promotion up to three times per week, and wagering requirements remain set at x40. The sports betting welcome promotion comes back as a repeating bonus, too – you can claim it once every weekend, with the same terms, conditions, and qualifying requirements as the first deposit offer.

As well as the above, Piratepots will give you up to twenty per cent cashback per day against losses incurred while playing casino games, subject to a maximum limit of £2000 per day and a wagering requirement of x5. There might be other promotions available at the casino at the time of your visit – Piratepots is fond of adding short-lived seasonal promotions and event-linked sporting promotions, as well as tournaments and other attractions. There’s always something going on.

Piratepots VIP Club

All we can really say for certain on this front is that a VIP club exists at Piratepots. Beyond that, the details are kept tightly under wraps until you qualify for it. Unfortunately, those details include how you might go about qualifying for it in the first place, so it’s a total mystery. Those who are lucky enough to get access get faster cashouts, personal account management, tailored bonuses and other perks that sound fairly standard for a casino VIP reward scheme.

What are the Pros and Cons of Piratepots Casino?

Featured Slots and Games

There must be a good few hundred pirate-themed slots and other casino games out there by now, so it would have been nice to see Piratepots include a curated selection of them on its homepage to go with the theme. Instead, it seems that the people behind Piratepots are just as obsessed with the Big Bass Bonanza series as everybody else is. Big Bass Splash, Bigger Bass Bonanza, Bigger Bass Splash, Big Bass Bonanza 1000, and Big Bass Vegas: Double Down Deluxe all appear at the top of the homepage as part of a block featuring other Pragmatic Play slots, like Sugar Rush, Gates of Olympus, and The Dog House.

You have to scroll to find slots by any other provider, but you can rest assured that other big names like Playson have also contributed to the Piratepots portfolio of more than 13,000 slots. Top Playson slots at the casino include Lion Gems: Hold and Win, Luxor Gold: Hold and Win, and Pink Joker: Hold and Win. As well as all the slots, Piratepots offers hundreds of live dealer games, plenty of crash and instant win titles, and an extensive sportsbook with plenty of spot bonuses attached to it. It’s not short of content.

Withdrawal Options and Speed

We touched on this in the Pros and Cons section. The withdrawal option range isn’t a problem at this casino. It includes Ethereum, Bitcoin, USDT, and Litecoin if you’re using crypto, or standard bank transfers if you’re not. The problem is timing. While plenty of the Green Champions Leader SRL casinos promise a 72-hour turnaround for withdrawals (which is still slow for casinos that deal in cryptocurrency), no such promise is made at Piratepots. In fact, Piratepots says nothing about withdrawal turnaround times at all. Casinos that are able to process withdrawals fast tend to shout about it, so we suspect Piratepots is much slower.

Customer Support and License

The chatbot that staffs the chat widget at Piratepots is capable of handling basic queries, but nothing more than that. While it might be possible to eventually persuade it to hand you over to a human being, it might save you both time and stress to just send an email to support@piratepots.io instead. The casino holds an Internet Gaming Licence issued by Anjouan Gaming, which is the same document that covers most (but not all) of the Piratepots sister sites. While it’s better than operating without a licence, it’s still not a well-respected regulator, and the licence means nothing at all in the UK, where Piratepots remains illegal.

Piratepots Casino – The Verdict

If you like Green Champions Leaders casinos, and it’s legal to play at them wherever you live, there is absolutely no reason why you won’t also like Piratepots. It’ll give you more of the things you presumably already love about its sister sites, and it’ll do it while wearing a fun pirate costume. Coming back to the question we asked at the start of this review, though, what it won’t do is offer you anything you haven’t seen from this operator a dozen or so times before. It’s a well-built casino, but it’s just another reskin of the same old template.
