FastPay Casino

Launched in June of 2018, Fastpay Casino is run by a group of affiliates. The site’s ethos is based around a desire to eradicate the scams that saturate the online gambling market. They also believe in speedy verifications, fair bonus terms and transparent policies. So far, so good right? You would think that a company founded on such a belief system would be independent, so you may be surprised to find out that it’s actually owned by Direx N.V., a large corporation owning several other online casinos. But let’s not make any snap judgements, read on to find out what a player experience is actually like at Fastpay.

The site itself has a fairly standard design, with a sliding banner at the top advertising the latest games and promotions. Games can be filtered by providers, and the search bar offers predictive suggestions, which definitely makes it easier to find what you’re after. All games are also available in ‘play for fun’ mode even before registration.

Fastpay Casino – The Highlights

• Lives up to its name with faster-than-average payment speeds
• No cap on winnings using bonus cash
• Customer service can be reached on multiple platforms

Players will be able to gain access to a 100% cash match welcome bonus up to C$150, with 100 free spins thrown in on top. The minimum deposit required in order to qualify is set to C$30 and doesn’t require any special bonus code, the welcome gift will be added to the player’s account automatically. The free spins aren’t awarded in one go, rather they’re doled out in lots of 20 over the first 5 days after signing up. Strangely, the wagering requirements for the bonus are set to 50 x, which is rather high for a casino claiming to want to establish player fairness at all levels.

Players also have the option to scoop up an additional bonus on the second deposit. However, this one is less generous, offering players a cash match of just 75% up to C$75. Once again, wagering requirements are set to an unusually high 50 x. The only really commendable thing is that there’s no limit to the amount that can be won using bonus cash.

Beyond these two offers there’s little more in the way of promotions, despite the site having a dedicated ‘Promotions’ tab. Players keen to grab as many free spins and bonuses as possible will have to rely on the site’s VIP program, but more in this below.

Let’s start with the facts. Fastpay Casino has partnered with all the best names in games providers to bring players over 3,000 games across multiple categories. So what’s on offer? Players can enjoy a combination of slots, video and classic poker, roulette, table games and live casino.

Slots

There’s a lot on offer here, and it’s by far the biggest section of games available on the site. This includes a good selection of slot machines of different styles and genres. The site allows you to search by provider and even buy in options.

Roulette

Fastplay hosts about 40 different versions of this classic casino game. Players can access different  varieties including European, American and French roulette. These come from multiple providers including Evolution, NetEnt, Play’n Go and Bgaming.

Live Casino

Your trip into the virtual world of live dealer games comes fully supported by Evolution Gaming. This means you can expect a glitch free experience. It’s one of the largest Live Casino selections I’ve seen, sitting at over 100, and many of the games support crypto payments. Players can indulge in multiple varieties of Blackjack, Baccarat, Roulette, Dream Catcher, and Monopoly.

Poker

Whether you like the classic style of table poker or prefer more modern interpretations of video poker, you’ll find it all here. Choose from Three Card, All Aces, Bonus Poker, Casino Stud, Cyberstud, Double Bonus, Jackpot, Joker, and Jacks or Better varieties of Poker.

Table Games

All remaining games that are classically played across the felt can be found under the Table Game tab. This includes all possible varieties of Baccarat and Blackjack.

FastPay Casino’s VIP Loyalty program is made up of 10 VIP levels, plus a ‘Black’ premium level. The program rests on the idea that players are rewarded for their loyalty by giving them the ability to claim back up to 10% of their accumulated bets. This reward is also supplemented by Birthday and Christmas gifts, level up rewards, a point exchange program and 2 weekly reload bonuses.

It’s definitely a more rewarding program than that offered by most casinos, and at Black level the birthday bonus is set to well over C$20,000. So how do players climb through the ranks? It’s pretty simple really, all you have to do is collect Status Points. 1 status point is awarded for every C$30 bet on slots, or 1 point for every C$300 bet on live casino.

Players who reach Level 4 or higher will be treated to free spins or real cash added directly to their accounts. Players who reach the dizzying heights of Levels 9 and 10 will start to receive 10% monthly cashback from all slot play.

Fastpay Casino scores high in the payments sector purely because it offers more options than the average online casino. These options are completed by the fact that they also accept 5 different types of cryptocurrency.

• iDebit (free / instant / min. C$10 / max. C$4,000)

Fastpay doesn’t charge any fees for deposits and withdrawals, and only supports payment options that offer their services free of charge. True to its name, payment speeds are also better than average, and the site promises to transfer withdrawals to e-wallets in just 1-10 minutes. The verification process is also promising, with Fastpay claiming to make things as quick and simple as possible, checking documents within 10 minutes.

Support is available around the clock with 24 hour Live Chat. Alternatively players can fill out an online form and wait for an email response. They even have a Telegram channel, FAQ section, and offer all VIPs Skype and Messenger support.

FastPay Casino certainly lives up to its name when it comes to speedy payments, but in some other areas, it doesn’t quite deliver. My biggest annoyance was down to the high wagering requirements offered alongside the welcome bonus. This was further compounded when I found no other promotions to keep me coming back for more. On the flip side, the loyalty program offers above average value, and the game selection is as good as the top competition out there. I would recommend this site to players who aren’t bothered about welcome bonuses, because it all other aspects it offers a decent player package.
