Gala Casino Bonus Review

Gala Casino is one of the few casinos where table and card game players will feel right at home along with slots fans. The casino has a live dealer section, plus a Macau section complete with lovely Asian dealers and Asian-themed games.  There’s a nice selection of slots and jackpots, such as the Marvel Comics progressive jackpots by Playtech. Gala Casino’s promotions are pretty packed. On top of a Welcome Bonus package, and there are plenty of special, time-limited offers for players to cash into.

BONUS: 100% up to £400

Tip: We’ll begin with the Welcome Bonus at Gala. It’s actually a Welcome package covering your first three deposits.

Welcome Bonus Package

New players at Gala Casino are guaranteed bonuses on their first three deposits.

  • 1st deposit: 100% up to £400
  • 2nd deposit: 50% up to £100
  • 3rd deposit: 50% up to £100

The conditions for all three bonuses are:

  • Wagering requirement is 20x bonus plus deposit
  • 14 days to fulfill requirement

Game contributions are:

  • Slots, arcade and scratch games: 100%
  • All roulette, craps and most blackjack games: 20%
  • All baccarat: 10%
  • Some table pokers and blackjacks: 5%

Wagering requirements are average for a large casino; 14 days to fulfill the requirements is a bit short, although not impossible. Clearly, the first deposit bonus is the best of the three, with the highest percentage and going up to a generous £400, which is higher than the average welcome offer. The next two deposit bonuses are only at 50%, and while this feels a bit disappointing after such a generous opening, it is also standard practice with casino welcome packages to have lower matching bonuses on the following deposits.

The game contributions are especially fantastic for table gamers who like to play a bit of everything. If you enjoy blackjack switch and roulette, this can be a good bonus for you.

Top Up Tuesday

This is Gala Casino’s weekly reload bonus

  • 25% up to £100
  • Wagering requirement is 20x bonus plus deposit
  • Can use this bonus as many times as you like until you claim £100
  • 7 days to fulfill requirement
  • Must have made at least 3 deposits before to qualify

Game contributions remain the same.

This is not the best bonus we’ve seen. While re-load bonus tends to have a lower matching bonus, we find the wagering requirement on the high end for a re-load bonus, not to mention the £100 is not much.

On the plus side, this is basically the same as the Weekend Re-load bonus – this means that you have up to another £100 to claim on the weekends. It’s not much, but it’s better than nothing.

Blackjack Golden Card Giveaways

If you love blackjack, and you enjoy playing with live dealers, then you’re definitely in luck at Gala Casino. The Golden Card Giveaway is a daily promo in which ‘Golden Cards’ are secretly mixed into the deck. If you draw one, then you get a bonus! Here are the details:

  • Promo runs daily, between 17:00 and 23:00 UK time
  • 30 golden cards are randomly added into the decks. 6 of them are worth £100, 8 of them worth £50, and 16 worth £20
  • If one of these cards end up in your deck, you get the money as a bonus
  • Wagering requirement of 1x
  • 7 days to meet requirement
  • Available on Live Blackjack only

This is just awesome. There’s nothing like seeing a live dealer deal a real golden card for you. The prize money comes in generous sums, not to mention the one time wagering requirement here is a complete breeze. An absolute no-brainer if you know how to play blackjack.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

When it comes to banking, Gala accepts the usual payment methods. Skrill, Neteller, Ukash, paysafecard, credit cards and more. As with most casinos, withdrawing to an e-wallet like Skrill or Neteller is instant once the withdrawal request is processed. The casino however doesn’t specify how long it takes to process a withdrawal request.

SUPPORT

We were disappointed by the customer support here. We tried connecting with a live chat agent on a Thursday night, and it took about 15 minutes before we got to speak with an agent. Maybe it was a one time issue, but it left a bad first impression. Once we got through, the agent was friendly and knowledgeable enough, but the wait time is a definite minus in our books. Customer service can also be contacted by phone or email.

EXCELS IN:

Gala Casino can be a very good choice for table game players. We especially love the Golden Card Giveaway for live Blackjack players and this bonus is one of the best in class.  Game contributions are also good for table gamers who like to play a bit of everything – roulette, craps, and to a lesser degree baccarat, all do quite well with the bonuses at Gala Casino.
