Shazam Casino is a new US bitcoin casino launched in 2021 from the operator that brought us two other popular US bitcoin casinos: Rich Palms and Lucky Tiger. This online casino incorporates gorgeous artwork based on a theme of magicians and spells. Like its predecessors, Shazam Casino is built on the Realtime Gaming (RTG) platform, offering 250+ online slots machines, table games, and specialty games from this provider. Additionally, Americans who enjoy live dealer games can enjoy the most popular live table games from leading provider ViG.

The URL shazamcasino.com is safe and secure, using 256-bit encryption to protect sensitive information. The random number generators (RNGs) of all games of chance are tested and certified as fair by independent third parties. Furthermore, Shazam Casino’s website claims to hold a Curaçao license, meaning it must meet the standards of fairness and safety or otherwise risk losing its license.

CASINO REVIEW OF SHAZAM CASINO

Besides a striking purple theme color, the casino reinforces the magic theme by its word choice throughout the site. For example, players can claim a bonus by clicking on a ‘CAST A SPELL’ button rather than the standard ‘CLAIM BONUS.’ Oh – and players are not called ‘players’ but referred to as ‘wizards’ and ‘witches.’ These are some ways Shazam Casino uses gamification to engage players, along with regular casino tournaments and exciting promotions.

Shazam Casino’s website is super user-friendly and easy to navigate. At the top of every page, the header provides quick access to the cashier page, promotional messages, chat function, and a burger menu with helpful options. A conveniently placed drop-down menu organizes games into major classifications: new (games), table, slots, video poker, specialty, progressives, and live dealer. Sub-menus appear when hovering over them, helping to refine a search. Also helpful is a search field that lets players find games by name faster.

As a US bitcoin casino, Americans can deposit in USD (using credit/debit card: Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, or Discover) or BTC from a bitcoin wallet. Likewise, Americans can make free USD withdrawals (using a credit card or bank wire) or free BTC withdrawals back to their bitcoin wallet. Although banking options are somewhat limited, the upside is that the casino does not charge a cashout fee.

CUSTOMER SUPPORT AT SHAZAM CASINO

Before reaching out to customer support, we always suggest considering whether answers to general questions might be provided in the terms and conditions, FAQs, or elsewhere on the site.

In part, the measure of a quality online casino is whether it’s there when needed. The casino does its part by offering American players three ways of contacting an English-speaking Shazam Casino customer support agent. First, there’s a 24/7 live chat option, ideally used by players already logged in. An alternative 24/7 customer support option is a US toll-free telephone support line at 1-888-335-2368.

Finally, players have the option of sending an email to [email protected], which can take a little longer, but is often the most used form of customer support.

Shazam Casino Payment Methods

Shazam Casino accommodates a limited number of ways of depositing USD, BTC, or LTC funds into a player account conveniently located under the ‘Deposit’ tab of the cashier section like many online casinos now do. All Shazam Casino deposits are fast, credited to an online casino player account within minutes.

If you choose to deposit US dollars, the casino accepts credit and debit cards: Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express. A card authorization agreement confirming you are 18+ years of age, have read the casino T&Cs and are the legitimate cardholder is required.

Shazam Casino withdrawal options are equally limited, accommodating a bank wire or credit card for USD. The alternative is to withdraw in BTC. We liked that there are no casino fees applied to deposits or withdrawals, although we noted the maximum withdrawal amounts per day/week were low at $500/$2,000.

The casino cashout processing time can take 2-7 business days, which is not unreasonable. Once approved, bitcoins are credited to a wallet within 24 hours, but US dollars can take several more business days.

BONUSES AT SHAZAM CASINO

Whether a new player or a returning player, Shazam Casino always seems to have something going on, whether it’s a casino bonus, regular tournament, awarding Comp Points, or VIP perks and there are multiple no deposit bonuses and other promotions to choose from.

It’s important to read the terms and conditions with all bonuses in order to discover any wagering requirements attached – this is important for claiming any free spins bonus offers, bonus code terms, or any cash withdrawal that may come too.

SHAZAM CASINO WELCOME OFFER

New players can redeem three coupon codes corresponding to three casino bonuses on each of the first three deposits. Check your inbox for the first bonus link, or visit the cashier section to claim before making a deposit. Each bonus is optional and must be claimed in the following order:

• 250% Match Deposit Bonus & 100 Free Spins on Bubble Bubble 2 slot & 100% Cashback Bonus: on the 1st first deposit (Coupon Code: ALAKAZAM)
• 275% Match Deposit Bonus & 100 Free Spins on Bubble Bubble 2 slot & 50% Cashback Bonus: on the 2nd deposit (Coupon Code: ABRACADABRA)
• 300% Match Deposit Bonus & 100 Free Spins on Bubble Bubble 2 slot & 50% Cashback Bonus: on the 3rd deposit (Coupon Code: HOCUSPOCUS)

The Shazam Casino welcome bonus is valid on games and slots with a minimum deposit of $25 and a playthrough wagering requirement of 30x (bonus + deposit). There is also a maximum cashout limit of 20x. The cashback bonus has a playthrough wagering requirement of 40x and a maximum cashout of 6x.

Unlike other sites, there aren’t multiple no bonuses which are becoming more common at online casinos, the these casino bonuses will be suitable for most players.

REGULAR PLAYER PROMOTIONS AND REGULAR TOURNAMENTS

The coupons section of the cashier page is a great place to visit, whether you’re looking for a bitcoin deposit bonus, free spins, or match deposit bonus on slots, card games, or roulette.

Shazam casino tournaments allow players to compete for prizes that grow with participants. We were disappointed that regular tournaments award bonus with a 40x wagering requirement and a miserly 6x cashout limit instead of real money. On a positive note, all wagering during regular tournaments contributes towards earning comp points.

Shazam Casino VIP Program

The VIP program at Shazam Casino consists of five levels, named after a wizard, with the following benefits. The casino doesn’t provide much info on how one climbs levels, so we recommend contacting customer support.

Rewards	Spell Adept	Potion Master	Shadow Hunter	Moon Summoner	Shazam Guildmaster
	Level I	Level II	Level III	Level IV	Level V
Daily Cashback	Y	Y	N	N	N
Birthday Bonuses	Y	Y	Y	Y	Y
Comp Points	18:1	14:1	12:1	11:1	10:1
Match Bonus	185%	235%	265%	285%	300%
Weekly Cashback	N	Y	Y	Y	Y
Other Slots/Specialty Bonus	$100	$300	$500	$750	$1,000
Monthly Cashback			6%	8%	10%
No Max Cashout Bonus			Y	Y	N
Increased Bet Limit				Y	N
No Bet Limit					Y
Real Money Bonus					Y

COMP POINTS

Players begin earning Shazam Casino comp points when playing for real money at a rate corresponding to their level. These points can then be converted into real cash at a rate of 100 comp points: $1, with no further wagering requirements.

CLAIMING YOUR DEPOSIT BONUSES

Claiming a bonus at shazam Casino is as easy as visiting the cashier section of your player account and periodically checking your email inbox. Claim a coupon by clicking on the ‘CAST A SPELL‘ link or entering the coupon code before making a deposit.

GETTING STARTED AT SHAZAM CASINO

1. To begin the signup process and create a casino account (taking less than 10 minutes), head to shazamcasino.com, click on the big green button labeled ‘JOIN NOW in white letters.’ This action immediately takes you to the first of three signup screens. Begin by entering a username, password, and email address. When satisfied, click on the green button labeled ‘CONTINUE.’
2. The second signup screen is just as straightforward. A new player simply needs to enter their first and last name, gender, and date of birth. Once again, click on the green button labeled ‘CONTINUE’ to advance to the third signup screen.
3. On the final signup screen, enter your address information. Ensure that the default country displayed is the United States. You’ll also need to provide your ZIP Code, city, state, address, and telephone number. The currency displayed should read USD. By default, new players have the option of receiving exclusive bonuses and news by email, which we suggest they do not miss out on any opportunities. After clicking on the ‘CONTINUE’ button the third time, you are now a ‘fellow wizard!’ (player).

LIVE DEALER GAMES AT SHAZAM CASINO

Americans who enjoy live games are in luck as Shazam Casino offers live blackjack, live roulette, and live baccarat from leading industry provider Visionary iGaming (ViG). Some live tables offer a choice of table limits, so it doesn’t matter if you’re a conservative player, a high roller, or fall somewhere in between.

Experience the thrill of playing live games with real-life dealers and tables – streamed to you in high definition. A chat function even allows players to participate in banter or ask questions between rounds, as social aspects of online casinos and casino games is becoming more popular, particularly through live casino games.

ONLINE CASINOS GAMES FOR REAL MONEY AT SHAZAM CASINO

All RTG slots, table games, and specialty options at Shazam Casino are available in demo mode, and the best part is there is no need to signup or login first. Free online slots and table games are an excellent opportunity to discover new games, learn the rules and get comfortable. However, there are overarching advantages to playing Shazam Casino real money games. First, real money slots, table games, and live games often qualify for casino bonuses, promotions, tournaments, or other perks. Second, no matter how well you do playing free casino games, you’ll never be able to keep what you win.

Americans who gravitate towards live games can only play these live table games for real money since demo mode is not an option. While we’re sure there are plenty of other reasons, we’ll stop by adding that playing free online casino games can’t recreate the same level of excitement as real money online casino games.

ONLINE SLOTS AT SHAZAM CASINO

Of the 250+ Shazam Casino games from RTG, around 200 are video slots (including 3D) representing a diverse selection of themes, features, and payouts. Many American online casino players will recognize the more popular titles, including Bubble Bubble, Cash Bandits, Asgard, and Lucha Libre. RTG also has a few signature progressive jackpot slots. These titles include Aztec’s Millions, Ceasar’s Empire, Jackpot Cleopatra’s Gold Deluxe, and Spirit of the Inca, part of RTG’s I Progressive slots series.

VIDEO POKER GAMES AT SHAZAM CASINO

Unlike a live online poker room, video poker is a much easier game since it’s played against a computer rather than other players. Shazam Casino offers over a dozen variants of this popular game, including Jacks or Better, All American Poker, Deuces Wild, and Joker Poker. Although not the most comprehensive selection, most players find something to suit their taste.

TABLE GAMES AT SHAZAM CASINO

Shazam Casino table games are a modest 20+ collection with a bias towards poker (Let ‘Em Ride, Pontoon, Pai Gow, and Texas Hold ‘Em) and Blackjack. Online poker players who enjoy higher risk will be delighted to find RTG’s popular Caribbean Stud Poker and Caribbean Hold ‘Em Poker because of their massive progressive jackpots. Shazam Casino also has a single game of baccarat, European roulette, and craps games.

SPECIALTY GAMES AT SHAZAM CASINO

Shazam Casino specialty offers are a modest collection of about a dozen games. This category includes American roulette, French roulette, keno, bingo, bonus poker deluxe, etc. Overall, the selection may seem underwhelming, particularly for fans of online roulette variants.

SHAZAM CASINO MOBILE ONLINE CASINO

Shazam Casino is an instant-play mobile casino, so there’s no need to download a casino app from Shazam Casino. Just open a browser on your Android or iOS device to experience the same functionality and enjoyment that you would from the desktop version.

WHAT WE THOUGHT OF SHAZAM CASINO

Shazam Casino is not a bad place to play if you enjoy video slots, including progressive slots, from Realtime Gaming as our Shazam casino review shows. Unfortunately, the choice of most table games and specialty games is minimal. As a new casino launched in 2021, Shazam Casino is well-designed, with an exciting magic theme, and it certainly outdoes its sister sites in the use of gamification.

We liked the tiered VIP loyalty program because of the potential perks and the comp points program, convertible into real cash rather than bonus money offered at some other online casinos.

We did feel that the casino missed out on an opportunity to improve on some of the shortcomings that we noted in our casino reviews of Rich Palms and Lucky Tiger. The maximum withdrawal per week remains low, and banking options remain limited, although we happily acknowledge that these are free. We also thought the casino might improve the bonus wagering requirements offered with the deposit bonuses, which remain relatively high, or reconsider the max cashout limits on tournament and bonus winnings.

Finally, we were delighted to find that Shazam Casino always has exciting promotions and regular tournaments running simultaneously. Americans who love Realtime Gaming slots may find the combination of the two magical.
