Spin Station Casino Review Introduction
When it comes to promotions, as we'll see in this Spin Station casino review, they are clearly rather pleased with themselves. You can tell by the way they trumpet their welcome package in the header, the side panels, half-way down the home page and on their dedicated promotions page. They’ve also included bunting in one of their adverts which means they’re positively giddy with excitement. And in fairness, their welcome offer is very competitive. One of the screaming headlines proclaims that you can ‘earn’ up to €3,000 in bonuses as well as 100 bonus spins on your first three purchases. So how does this work?
The package is split into first, second and third deposits as follows:
- First Deposit: 200% match up to €2000 + 20 spin station free spins on Starburst
- Second Deposit: 50% match up to €500 + 50 spins on Gonzo’s Quest
- Third Deposit: 75% match up to €500 + 30 spins on Twin Spin
This obviously constitutes a superior welcome package, even if you take the 35x wagering requirements into account. While the second and third deposit bonuses aren’t quite as generous, they add further weight to an already hefty welcome offer.
In keeping with the casinos that operate on the White Hat platform, Spin Station also features a prize-draw for a Mercedes. As with the
Grand Ivy Casino, all you’ve got to do is reach 1000 “station points” in a month. Unfortunately, the wheels fall of this particular promotion when it becomes clear that only 10 points are awarded per €100 deposited. Clearly this one is aimed at the high-rollers because for casual gamers, there’s little value.
Spin Station Pokies
Pokies are where it’s at for Spin Station, hence the name. So it should be no surprise, when we tell you that their range of casino pokies is massive – if fact we counted well over 400 titles. While Spin Station Casino does include traditional casino table games such as poker, baccarat and roulette, it’s their portfolio of video pokies that really stands out. Major titles such as Rainbow Riches, Starburst and Fairy-Tale Legends are available as well as 35 jackpot pokies included Arabian Nights and Mega Fortune.
Spin Station Casino Games
All Spin Station titles include free demo play and operate within an Iframe. However, unlike sites such as Casumo, there’s no elaborate game browser for you to navigate to other games. Instead, you merely close the game by clicking an ‘x’, which takes you back to the previous screen. No-frills is clearly the byword in this particular area. During testing, we found that all games loaded up quickly and operated without incident.
Live Casino Games
Spin Station’s offering of live casino titles includes traditional table games such as Texas hold’em, three-card poker and roulette. Thirteen games are available to play from either Live Casino or Evolution Gaming.
Spin Station Casino App / Mobile
It’s encouraging when websites like Spin Station look and work well across ALL resolutions. Unfortunately, many casinos fall by the wayside due the developers’ obsessive pursuit of ‘mobile’ compatibility. As a result, desktop versions are often overlooked. This frankly astounding oversight is made even worse when you consider that larger desktop screens, backed up with better processing power, can offer the most immersive gaming experience of any device out there.
Although Spin Station Casino jumped aboard the ‘ready-for-mobile’ bandwagon from the very beginning, they’ve managed to avoid such carelessness. Their site is fully compatible with smaller devices and operates well on tablets too. The mobile versions are very similar to their desktop counterpart, save for the menu which switches to a tab format. For larger tablet screens, the navigation system reverts back to the desktop version.
VIP Scheme
Information about Spin Station Casino’s VIP scheme is only available after creating an account and logging in. Because it’s owned by Caddell Limited NV and runs on the White Hat Gaming platform, the offers are very similar to the ones found on the Grand Ivy Casino website. The packages are tiered according to spend and are known as Gold, Silver, Platinum and Invite Only. The benefits at Spin Station are as follows:

Customer Support
The Spin Station customer support team is available 24 hours, 7 days a week. As well as live chat, they provide three email addresses, of which two are for account re-openings and complaints respectively. However, they forgo the opportunity to include an FAQ section and there’s no telephone number. Not great if we’re being honest.
Spin Station Casino Review Summary
All-in-all, Spin Station Casino offers a refined gaming experience and a professional website that’s both robust and flexible in design. Other high points include its generous welcome promotion and the large range of casino pokies available. The bare-minimum customer service, with its lack of telephone support and FAQ section, is the only sour note. Apart from this, the creators of Spin Station have done well in navigating the various industry pitfalls to offer a compelling casino gaming experience.
