Royalen Casino Welcome Bonuses

There are three versions of the Royalen Casino welcome promotion, so strap yourself in and we’ll take them one at a time. The first is the standard-issue casino welcome offer, which is a 200% match up to a maximum of £2000 on first deposits of £20 or more, accompanied by 200 free spins. You’ll need to use the code ROYAL_WELCOME when making your qualifying deposit to claim the promotion, which is subject to x40 wagering on both the bonus pot and anything generated by the free spins.

If you fancy yourself as a high roller, you could claim a larger, two-stage welcome bonus instead. First deposits of £250 or more get matched at 50% up to a maximum of £5000 and ‘reduced wagering requirements’, although the terms don’t actually tell us what the reduced wagering requirements are. Remember to enter the code ROYAL_HIGH1 to claim this offer if you want it. The second deposit bonus is another 50% up to £5000 subject to the same terms, but with the code ROYAL_HIGH2 required when you make the qualifying deposit. £10,000 is a nice big bonus pot, but the lack of clarity over the wagering requirements is a worry to us.

Option three is the crypto welcome promotion, which is advertised as a 300% match up to £100 on crypto deposits of £20 or more. The code this time is ROYAL_CRYPTO. While the 300% match is nice, the promotion appears to be subject to the casino’s general terms and conditions on wagering requirements (so x40 again), and £100 is a very low cap compared to the other bonuses.

Other Promotions

The general ongoing promotions at Royalen Casino come in the shape of three different Wheels of Fortune, each of which can be spun once per day so long as you’re willing to make the required deposit. For a deposit of £50 or more, you get a spin of the Court Wheel, which will deliver free spins, ‘super spins,’ or a cash prize worth up to £2000. A deposit of £100 or more will get you a spin of the Noble Wheel, which comes with upgraded prizes worth up to a maximum of £4000. The Regal Wheel costs £250 to spin, but comes with maximum prizes worth up to £10,000.

VIP Program

There are ten tiers to the Royalen Casino loyalty reward program, and players climb through them by acquiring CP points through regular play. It’s one point per £10 wagered on slots, or one per £50 on table games. Not much happens at the lower levels of the program, with Nobles and Knights getting nothing beyond small packages of free spins and 5% ongoing cashback. A cash reward, starting at £50, comes with reaching each new rank from Viscount only. From there, the cash reward from rank to rank goes to £250, £500, £1,500, £5,000, £10,000, £20,000, and £50,000 at the very top rank of Royal Sovereign.

The cost of getting anywhere near the highest levels is massively prohibitive. Crown Prince, which is the level below Royal Sovereign, has an entry point of 800,000 CP. That’s £8m in wagering, assuming you’re exclusively playing slots. To get to Royal Sovereign, you’d need 2,000,000 CP, which works out at £20m. The rewards at those upper levels include 20% cashback, VIP account management, and exclusive bonuses with mere x1 wagering requirements, but does that justify the cost? Perhaps so if you’re already a millionaire.

What are the Pros and Cons of Royalen Casino?

Featured Slots and Games

This goes hand in hand with what we just said in the Pros and Cons section. The problem at Royalen Casino is not that the casino lacks games. It doesn’t. It’s not that it doesn’t have categories or genres, because it has no problems on that front either. It’s that the games here are drawn largely from relatively unknown or second-tier providers, and you won’t find many (or possibly even any) of your usual favourite slots because of that. Providers like Belatra, Booongo, NetGame and BGaming are, without any disrespect intended to the studios, the companies you turn to for supply when your lack of licensing means you can’t dine at the top table.

With all of the above being said, you can probably still find something that at least reminds you of your usual preferred slots. You won’t get any prizes for guessing where the inspiration behind Blast the Bass by Belatra came from, and it’ll scratch that Big Bass Bonanza itch for you. Other featured slots at Royalen include Royal Beellion: Hold and Win (a weird name, but a bee-themed game), 3 Coin Volcanoes, Luck of Panda: Bonus Combo, Gold Rush with Johnny, After Night Falls, African King: Hold and Link, and The Gem Master.

Withdrawal Options and Speed

Fast withdrawals from Royalen Casino are possible if you’re using cryptocurrency or an e-wallet. Supported crypto coins and tokens include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Dogecoin, and TRON. Google Pay and Apple Pay are your e-wallet options. In all of those cases, you’re looking at up to 24 hours for approval and funding after making a withdrawal request. For other methods, which are limited to debit card or bank transfer, you might be left waiting for up to five days. Basically, don’t ask for a card or bank transfer unless you really have to.

Customer Support and License

The first line of customer support at Royalen is its chatbot, which we spent a few minutes talking to about things like the withdrawal process and got satisfactory answers. If you can’t get what you want out of the bot, your alternative option is to email support@royalen.com instead. As we’ve said already, this casino doesn’t hold any recognised casino or iGaming licences, and is illegal in the majority of regulated territories because of that. If there are any Royalen sister sites out there, we’d assume that they have the same problem.

Royalen Casino – The Verdict

This is going to sound like a weird thing to say, but we think everything is great about Royalen other than the fact that it doesn’t have a licence. Withdrawals move quickly, the bonuses are solid, support is adequate, and the casino comes across as having been made by people who know and understand what they’re doing. The lack of licensing, however, means that all of those positives are meaningless. There is no valid excuse for not having an iGaming licence in this day and age, and we can’t recommend a casino that doesn’t have one. Sadly, that’s where we have to stand with Royalen Casino.
