Ocean Bet Sister Sites 2024

THE OCEAN BET SISTER SITES DO NOT HOLD A LICENCE FROM THE UK GAMBLING COMMISSION

Rocket Bet

We think Rocket Bet might just be the crown jewel of R Bostock Enterprises B.V., making it potentially the top pick among the Ocean Bet sister sites. Whether it truly is the best can be up for debate, as that’s down to personal taste, but it certainly looks the part. The space theme, which is getting more and more popular at new casinos, really shines here. The stark contrast in how Rocket Bet presents itself compared to its sister sites is quite astonishing—it’s hard to imagine they’re all from the same stable. But it’s not just about looks; the promotions at Rocket Bet also seem to offer more bang for your buck than what you’d find at the other sites on the platform, giving you a solid reason to bypass them and head straight for Rocket Bet. Your journey through the Ocean Bet sister sites should start here, and it could well also end here.

Riviera Bet

Riviera Bet isn’t quite as pretty to look at as Rocket Bet, but it’s easier on the eye than Ocean Bet. A cynic would suggest that being easier on the eye than Ocean Bet isn’t a difficult thing to achieve, and the cynic would be correct. The most notable thing about Riviera Bet, though, has nothing to do with how it looks – it’s about something that you can’t see at all, because it isn’t there. We’re talking about a promotions page. While Rocket Bet piles promotions high and comes with thousands of pounds in perks, Riviera Bet doesn’t even have the most basic of sign-up offers. It’s the very definition of a no-frills casino. That will be the best thing about Riviera Bet to some players, but it will be a good reason to avoid it for others. It’s all a matter of personal taste, but we think it’s the weakest casino on the platform.

Ocean Bet Review 2024

The easiest way to describe Ocean Bet would be as a clone of Riviera Bet with promotions added to the mix, but that’s not much use if you’ve never seen Riviera Bet. Starting from the top, then, this is a modern-looking iGaming site with a hint of an ocean theme, a selection of more than seven thousand slots, and a couple of interesting-sounding promotions. It looks solid enough without being particularly noteworthy in terms of its appearance, but how noteworthy is its content? Let’s take a look.

Ocean Bet Welcome Offers

For casino fans, the welcome promotion at Ocean Bet is a 120% matched deposit bonus, with a minimum qualifying deposit of £10, and twenty-five bonus spins included in the package. Players who want to claim this offer have to use code HOSGELDIN120 when they make their qualifying deposit, and will also have to clear an x30 wagering requirement before they can withdraw any of their bonus funds. The maximum value of the bonus is £600. It’s given as £6,000 under point six of the bonus terms and conditions, but we believe that’s a typo – and not a great one.

For sports bettors, the alternative Ocean Bet welcome offer is a 100% matched deposit boost with a minimum of £10 and a maximum of £300, The code for this one is HOSGELDIN100, and the wagering requirement is x6. As with the casino welcome bonus, there are errors in the terms and conditions of the bonus, incorrectly listing the maximum as £6000 in one place and £3000 in another. The correct amount is definitely £300.

Ongoing Promotions

Once you’ve picked your preferred welcome bonus and got over your disappointment that the bonus cap is in the hundreds rather than the thousands of pounds, you might go looking for your next bonus offer. You won’t be looking for very long, though, because there aren’t any other bonuses. This is unusual by the standards of Curacao-based casinos, but not all that unusual in the context of R Bostock Enterprises B.V. as an operator – there are no bonuses whatsoever at Riviera Bet, so by offering welcome bonuses, Ocean Bet is actually a step up.

Pros and Cons of Ocean Bet

Pros: Even with the errors, the welcome promotions that the casino offers are reasonable in both the amounts they offer and the terms they come with. Any casino that has a portfolio as large as Ocean Bet is likely to be able to keep players entertained for a while. While the Curacao licence has its critics, it’s better than not having any licence at all.

Cons: The fact that the casino has made basic errors with its terms and conditions makes us wonder what else it might have made errors with. That means it’s difficult to trust the casino. It’s even more difficult to trust it when you consider that there’s no withdrawal guidance anywhere on the website, and it’s in the habit of accepting players from the UK when it doesn’t have a licence to permit that action.

Top Games at Ocean Bet

Ocean Bet is well-furnished in the iGaming department, packed with top-class slots and games from some of the leading names in iGaming. Holding a recognised iGaming licence, which isn’t always a given with casinos operating from places like Curacao, certainly helps its credibility in the eyes of those providers, ensuring that the casino has access to their best work. While Ocean Bet also provides sports betting and live casino games, slots are its main focus. However, the selection of slots it features in its Top 10 on the homepage might raise some eyebrows, given the extensive range available.

At the time of our review of the casino, the number one slot was Chilli Pop, a relatively obscure Mexican-themed game by Betsoft. Following it was the official slot game for The Invisible Man, created by the well-regarded NetEnt, although this particular game isn’t one of NetEnt’s premier titles. In third place, Hugo Carts by Play’n Go was featured, indicating the presence of Play’n Go games, but this mining-themed slot isn’t seen as a standout from the developer. Rounding out the top five were 90K Yeti Gigablox and Deadwood.

Withdrawal Processing and Support

Right at the bottom of the Ocean Bet homepage, you’ll see the Visa and Mastercard logos, which suggests you can probably use your debit cards for withdrawals. If you prefer e-wallets, your options are PayPal, Neteller, or Skrill. That’s about all the information available on withdrawal processes at Ocean Bet. The casino only vaguely hints in its full terms and conditions that withdrawals take three days to process. Ideally, this sort of information should be easily accessible, either on a specific banking page or within the FAQ section, not buried in the fine print – especially when we have concerns about the fine print because of the errors made in the bonus terms and conditions.

Customer Support and Licensing

The Ocean Bet customer support team can be contacted by live chat, or by sending an email to [email protected]. While it doesn’t explicitly say so, we think that the live chat facility is available all day, every day. Ocean Bet and all of the Ocean Bet sister sites are covered by Curacao eGaming licence 1668/JAZ, held by R Bostock Enterprises B.V. in its capacity as the operator of the casinos. Players in the UK should be aware that this licence won’t offer them any protection in the event of a dispute.

Ocean Bet – The Verdict

Ocean Bet is not the best casino on this network. That honour goes to Rocket Bet, which is very obviously the operator’s flagship. However, it’s also not the worst casino on the network – that’s Riviera Bet. This one, therefore, is somewhere in the middle. If you like the laid-back style of Riviera Bet but wish that it offered bonuses, that would be the best reason to play at Ocean Bet. However, we have pressing concerns about the mess the casino has made with its terms and conditions. It’s often very difficult to trust casinos that operate on a Curacao licence, so botching terms and conditions does nothing to help with the trust-building process. Still, it’s an easy thing for the casino to fix, and we’d feel a lot better about Ocean Bet if it did.
