Wildsino Casino Review

Yee-haw, pardner! We’re movin’ from the land down under to the outback, raising cattle, fighting wildlife and shooting pistols! … Okay, now that I put it this way, maybe Wildsino’s Wild West theme isn’t too different from what we’re used to. Similarly, the casino itself feels pretty familiar: if you’ve already played at a NovaForge site (or at least read about them on sites like ours) then you’d know exactly what to expect here.

But even so, we at CasinoAustraliaOnline are determined to give it a fair shake and examine it top to bottom as if we’re seeing it for the first time! So, after spending many hours evaluating not just the casino’s bonuses and games, but also its payment options, safety, and other features (like customer support), we’re finally ready to present our extensive review! So, is this town big enough for Wildsino, or does it deserve a duel at high noon?

Bonuses

Welcome Bonus – 100% Match up to AU$1,500 + 300 Free Spins + 1 Bonus Crab

We’ve reviewed quite a lot of NovaForge casinos, and their bonuses are typically very similar to each other – so it was quite the surprise that Wildsino not only breaks the mold, but also does it in a very surprising and generous way! For starters, the casino will give you not just one welcome bonus, but an entire package that will reward each of your first three deposits. We’ll discuss the other promos soon, but for now, we’ll just focus on the first deposit one, which is also quite impressive.

For starters, you’ll receive a 100% match up to AU$1,500, which is quite decent! “But so what,” you may be thinking, “I was planning to just deposit the minimum deposit of AU$30, so it doesn’t matter if the maximum is AU$500 or AU$5,000!” But that’s where you’re wrong, because in addition to that you’ll also get a whopping 300 free spins on the game “Gates of Olympus,” alongside one spin on the exclusive game “Bonus Crab”. Insane offer!

Typically, casinos tend to give these packages of spins in batches (for example, 30 spins a day for 10 days), but we didn’t find any mention that this is the case in Wildsino, so we assume you’ll be able to claim them all at once. Once you do, you’ll have 10 days to spin through them, as well as complete the wagering requirements on the winnings, which are x40. The deposit bonus will have slightly smaller requirements, at only x35.

Additional Welcome Bonuses

As mentioned, Wildsino will have not just one, but three separate bonuses to greet you within its virtual halls – one for each of your first three deposits! We already outlined the first one above, and the second and third ones have very similar wagering requirements, so we won’t spend too much time discussing them. If you need more details on how they work, check out the previous section!

The second deposit bonus will retain the maximum bonus you can receive (AU$1,500), but will lower the percentage to only 75%. In turn, the third one will retain the percentage, but lower the maximum bonus to AU$750, which is a little disappointing – especially since neither of these bonuses comes with any free spins. However, if you look at these two as just extras attached to the first deposit bonus, a little something extra for dessert instead of full meals in their own right, they’re pretty decent!

Reload Promotions at Wildsino Casino

Whether a casino site has 1 or 300 welcome bonuses, eventually they’ll dry up and you won’t be able to use them anymore. So, what’s the solution? It’s simple: you’ll have to rely on reload bonuses and other recurring promos that aren’t single-use only (or, if they are, will come back after a period of time). And lucky for you, Wildsino has a metric ton of them, so many that we can’t even mention all of them!

There are seasonal promos (like for Easter or Christmas), special giveaways, regular tournaments (which we’ll talk about in another section down below), even sports betting bonuses if you’re into that! For now, we’ll just focus on the two reload bonuses, each of which can be claimed once a week. During the weekday, a deposit of AU$30 or more will net you 50 free spins – pretty simple! As for the weekend, a similar deposit will grant you a 50% match up to AU$1,050… but if you increase your deposit amount to AU$75, you’ll also receive 50 free spins on top of that. Which is pretty generous, considering you can claim those offers week after week!

Games

We’ve already established that this casino’s bonuses are pretty fantastic, but ultimately, the truth is that even the greatest bonuses can’t save a mediocre games section. Isn’t that the reason why players participate in online casinos in the first place, for the games? Well, we’re happy to say that Wildsino doesn’t disappoint on that front, either! In fact, as is typical for NovaForge sites, it has some fantastic and very diverse games from all corners of the gambling world.

Obviously, there’s a pretty decent selection of both pokies and live dealer games – we’ll talk about those in more detail just below. However, you’ll also find a really well-realized sportsbook which, despite not having a ton of different sports, still offers plenty of content (in terms of both betting options and bonuses) to be worth checking out if you fancy yourself a bit of a punter. The site also offers a modest selection of instant win games like Aviator, though they’re not as much of a focus as, say, the live dealer section.

Pokies

If we had to pick just one feature here that we could point out as being our favourite, it’d undoubtedly be the pokies. If you’re a veteran of online gambling, you’ve certainly experienced the disappointment of trying to enjoy pokies in Australia, a country that – for one reason or another – is often neglected by the biggest slot developers. And yet, Wildsino has worked against these limitations to provide us with several thousand different games in all sorts of categories.

You can easily access jackpot games right from the main menu, and as for games with particular features (like megaways), those are a quick search away. These aren’t your average “filler” games by no-name providers, either – you’ll find the products of top-tier developers like Play’n GO, Nolimit City, Playson, BGaming, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, and many more. Any complaints we could list about this section would be little more than nitpicks. It’s just great!

Live casino

While the pokies section was the shining pearl in the centre of Wildsino’s crown, the live section is more like the obsidian – not really having the same shine, yet still extremely beautiful for those who can appreciate it. To clarify the analogy, you won’t find nearly as much variety in either games or providers here as you did the pokies section, but what’s here is still really decent, and should satisfy any fans of live casino gaming (even if it may not be enough for newcomers).

The bulk of the content here is provided by Pragmatic Live, which isn’t too surprising since they’re typically the main player in this company’s casinos. Their rooms are really decent and diverse, and you’ll be able to find not only plenty of variations on the big titles (like blackjack or roulette), but also of smaller titles like dragon tiger or andar bahar. You can even play live game shows, which is always very welcome!

Deposits & Withdrawals

Us Aussies aren’t only discriminated against when it comes to which pokie providers want to operate in our market – we also have significantly less choices in terms of casino payment methods than other countries! Whether it’s because casinos don’t want to offer various services here or because we don’t care for the ones they do accept, our choices are typically slim pickings. They aren’t mindblowing at Wildsino either, but quite frankly, the choice is more than satisfactory.

In terms of banking options, the only one you’d be able to deposit with is MasterCard – no surprise there, since Visa and bank transfer are typically only used for withdrawals at NovaForge sites. If you don’t want to use your card, you’ll have access to a decent selection of e-wallets like Skrill or Neteller, as well as to most prepaid solutions available here (Neosurf, Paysafecard, and CashtoCode).

Far more impressive is Wildsino’s selection of crypto solutions, which are pretty numerous and all-encompassing. The big and popular ones, like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, and Litecoin, are all here – which should surprise nobody, they’re available at 99% of the casinos we review. Far more interesting is the presence of more niche coins like Bitcoincash, Ripple, and even Cardano. That last one in particular is so rare, which makes it very cool to see!

Withdrawal time

Hooray, you’ve won! It’s time to invite all your friends for a big feast bought and paid for with your winnings, right? Well, while we fully support idea, maybe don’t put the horse before the cart: withdrawals at Wildsino won’t be anywhere near as fast as the deposit was. First you’ll need to go through verification (we’ve explained more about that later), and even if you’ve already verified, you’ll be waiting between 1 and 3 days before your money is dispatched.

Even after the winnings are on their way, they might be delayed additionally depending on your chosen payment. With e-wallets like Neteller, as well as most cryptos (like Litecoin or Ripple for instance), the transaction should be instant – but other cryptos (like Dogecoin and Bitcoin) can take quite a few hours to reflect your new balance. As for banking solutions, due to verifications performed by your bank, those will also see delays: about 3-5 days for cards and 7-10 days for bank transfer.

VIP Program

Although most of Wildsino’s bonuses are really decent, one we didn’t really like is the VIP program. Under normal circumstances, such a program would reward long-standing players, those who have played here for a long time and have earned certain privileges in the process. Unfortunately, the way this program is structured, practically no one will obtain any real rewards, except maybe the absolute richest 0.1% of players.

At its core, the way the program works isn’t bad: you place wagers on pokies with real money, and then you accumulate experience that lets you level up. But there are only five levels, so you can imagine how “quickly” you’d actually level up. It would take tens of thousands of dollars just to get from level 1 to level 2, and that doesn’t even unlock anything! The first real benefit comes from level 3 (a small cashback), and by that point you need to have played through nearly a million dollars. Who’d go through all that effort for a cashback which is not only really small, but also comes with wagering requirements?

Tournaments

Wildsino is no stranger to bonus features – hell, you’ve seen how many promotions they’re running! But even if some of them (like the VIP program) aren’t all that great, others are fantastic, like the tournaments. Wildsino indeed has some of the coolest and most diverse tourneys we’ve ever seen in a casino site – chances are, you can wager on anything you like here in a competitive way, and earn great prizes doing so!

Of course, regular weekly and monthly pokie tournaments are a must, but you’ll also encounter ones for live casino and sports betting, as well as seasonal tournmanets and external Drops & Wins promotions (we say “external” since they’re not organized by the site, but rather by other companies, but they still count in our book). As of the time of writing, we counted SEVEN different tournaments being active, which is nuts! The only thing we disliked a bit was that some of the tourneys didn’t award players with real cash, and instead gave winners coins they can use to purchase bonuses – but even then, the rest of them still awarded cash, so players could just participate in those instead.

Verification

Earlier in our review, back when we were younger and still talking about withdrawing from this casino, we mentioned how it’s not a quick process, and the first time you do it you’ll even need to verify your identity. But how does that actually work? In practice, it’s no different from verifying your identity pretty much anywhere, like for example, when you’re voting. You’d still need to provide a form of photo ID, and the only difference is that you’ll now need to prove a few more things.

One of them is a proof of address, so that the site knows you’re not playing from a restricted territory, you aren’t using a VPN, or anything shady like that. The other is a proof of your payment method, which is necessary to filter out money laundering. All you need to do is take a photo of your credit card or a screenshot of your e-wallet interface, it’s not anything more complicated than that. Once you have all of the documents, you can submit them so that the casino can verify your identity and allow you to make your withdrawal without further interruptions.

Is Wildsino Casino Legit & safe?

Safety is one of the most important things you should prioritize when searching for a new casino site – otherwise, what’s the point? Why would you spend time, energy, and money on a casino that would never pay out your winnings? That’s why we at CasinoAustraliaOnline always make extra sure to check the legitimacy and safety of whatever site we review – but did Wildsino pass our rigorous testing?

Yes, it absolutely did – and with flying colours, to boot! Wildsino is owned and operated by NovaForge, a very popular company with plenty of other sites under its repertoire. Whether you like NovaForge or not is up to personal preference, but it’s undeniable they’re an established player in the casino industry and not just some faceless nobody. As for a license (another thing that’s very important for a site to have, even if not strictly mandatory in AU), Wildsino has one of those too, issued by Anjouan. In fact, you can verify it yourself by going to the footer of the site and selecting the shield icon! If it says that the casino is unlicensed just delete the “1” after Wildsino’s name from the license URL, which should correct the glitch.

Customer support

So, you’re having trouble with some aspect at Wildsino – perhaps you’re unable to withdraw, or you can’t play your favourite pokies, or something else has gone wrong. Under normal circumstances you’d go right for the customer support, but the question is, is it worth it to do the same here? And the answer to that is, it depends on how you reach out.

You see, Wildsino’s live chat (which, we presume, is precisely what most players would use when contacting a support agent) is pretty bad, and leaves a lot to be desired. Responses are very delayed and often incomplete, which means you’ll often need to ask the agent additional questions to get the full picture (and that leads to even more delays). Quite unfortunate, right? Well, you can save yourself a lot of that effort by simply sending an email. You’ll be waiting either way, but at least the quality of the response you’ll receive will be much higher. It certainly was in our case.

Mobile casino

Come on, admit it – you’re planning to play this site from your phone, aren’t you? In fact, you’re probably reading those very words there! This is extremely common, as over the last few years many players have transitioned away from desktop and towards mobile devices, with sites like Wildsino having to adapt by crafting elaborate, functional mobile casinos. And we’re happy to say that this one succeeded in that endeavor!

Although the interface is a little simplistic, it’s very easy to navigate, and going from point A to point B on your phone isn’t a problem even with the inclusion of foldable menus and other concealed elements. The smaller display hasn’t impacted the appearance or performance of Wildsino in a significant way, so if you’re used to playing on your computer already, you won’t have any issues switching to your phone!
