High-rollers need a different set of criteria for finding the ideal casino or bookie than, say, the casual punter. We can see clearly through those flashy ads and dubious promises. Serious dough requires serious fun. Let’s cut to the chase and find out what these criteria are for those still new to the high-roller game.
Limits
The most important consideration is the maximum deposit and withdrawal limits. We need high limits. Whereas typically online casinos have a weekly limit of £5,000 to £10,000, a high-roller-friendly casino such as William Hill or NetBet offers up to £100,000 per transaction for withdrawals.
Smaller casinos such as Rizk will cap your withdrawal at £5,000 and some like 777 will set a monthly limit to the tune of £30,000. That’s very limiting, to say the least.
A lot of casinos do have some payment methods where the limits are higher and yet others offer the provision to increase your limits once you hit the high-roller label. But let’s face it, nobody likes to grind for it. Find yourself a casino that’s known to be friendly to high-rollers.
Also take a look at the deposit methods. Casinos might offer multiple payment providers with their own limits. For example, if you sign up on Mystake and try to make a debit card deposit, you will find several payment gateways with different limits, such as £2,000 and £3,000.
On the other hand, a casino like Grosvenor offers a high deposit limit of £10,000 per transaction. Punters might want to join NetBet, which offers deposits of up to £10,000 using Payz.
Crypto casinos, though not UKGC-mandated (the UKGC also bans cryptocurrencies apart from credit cards), can be a big advantage here. For example, Bitstarz has a maximum withdrawal limit of 10 BTC. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, that’s a humongous amount of money any time of the year.
VIP Program
The royal treatment is kind of the bread and butter of high-roller-friendly online casinos. A good VIP program has several tiers. Climbing this ladder gives enough perks and cashback to make it worth your while (and recuperate some of your net losses).
Find a casino that offers an excellent VIP or loyalty program loaded with perks such as cashback on losses, dedicated account managers, higher withdrawal limits, and exclusive promotions.
A good example is bet365. It offers much more than just a nice user interface and dependable odds. It offers an impeccably well-thought-out VIP system and insanely high withdrawal limits on certain e-wallets. It’s no DraftKings with those private show tickets and personal hosts, but this is one of the finest experiences you’ll get in the UK.
You get access to deposit limits such as £100,000 through bank transfers and the same for withdrawal on cards and Trustly. Your journey from Bronze to Diamond is as rewarding as it’s exciting. And you sort of get bragging rights on online forums.
Game Variety
At the end of the day, even high-rollers are thrill-seekers just like casual gamblers. And so, a good game variety is extremely important. Unibet’s £100,000 daily withdrawal limit is excellent albeit its slightly slower speed, but where it really punches above its weight is offering an amazing variety of sports betting markets. Don’t be surprised to find over 10,000+ markets in peak months (though the casino selection barely crosses 3500 slots).
Unibet isn’t a top bookie for UK punters for no reason.
Just like that, you will find a lot of online casinos that cater to high-rollers by offering enticing VIP programs and higher withdrawal limits, while also having a nice variety of betting markets and/or casino games.
Also, check the platform if it offers options and reliable game providers for your favourite games. Not many casinos have high-limit tables for blackjack, roulette, and baccarat. Private tables for VIPs are a big plus.
Fast, Hassle-free Withdrawals
Almost all leading online casinos worth their salt offer withdrawals under 24 hours on e-wallets to their most active high-rollers. This is a general rule of thumb. You don’t need to make this a leading criterion when searching for casinos.
Just stick with a good casino that’s known for generally fast withdrawals and lower processing times. Usually, it’s the European crypto casinos that shine the brightest in this department, but there are many hidden gems in the UK too.
Now that we’re on the topic – those European/international casinos sure pack a punch. But it’s not just about clearing the payments. Sometimes, we’re using cards and bank transfers or SEPA, and though the payment is cleared soon enough, it still takes a while to show up in the account.
Those are the times we miss the dear old Blighty.
Red Flags
Here are some red flags to be on the lookout for:
- If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Beware of outrageous bonuses with impossible wagering requirements.
- Never sign up on any casino before making sure that the licence being advertised is actually held by the gambling brand or its operator.
- Do your research by looking into user reviews and common complaints. Casinos with a bad reputation in the gambling community are a major red flag.
- Always double-check if your preferred payment methods are available on the platform or not. Avoid platforms with just a handful of e-wallets and a dozen cryptocurrency logos on the footer.
Choosing Wisely & Responsibly
Not all online casinos have high-rollers. Because they don’t have them, they also don’t know how to treat them. The way such a casino will treat a random high-roller is more akin to a cash cow or a reckless loser than a respectable player willing to invest more time in their games.
It has traditional roots.
Physical casinos had to reward their high-rollers but more importantly, ensure that those folks kept coming back for more. So, they’d offer perks like rides back home, premium lounge spaces, or even play tickets! The idea was to make you love the experience so you come back for more. They didn’t really care about making your life easier or making you more money. That cash-grab mentality has survived intact and today, the largest chunk of two-bit online casinos is following suit, having rebranded their approach suitably for the digital world.
A good online casino, on the other hand, knows how to treat high-rollers. From personally reaching out to you over a text or email to giving you special deals, they will make you feel welcome.
Hopefully, our guide will nudge you in the right direction when selecting a friendly online casino for those big deposits and hopefully even bigger withdrawals.
Apart from all that, you also need to pay attention to common security parameters such as a reliable and active licence, good customer support, proper mobile optimisation, and so on. UKGC casinos often provide mobile apps, so if you’re always on the go, you might want to limit your search radius to UKGC sites.
