Riviera Play Casino

Some websites do not work by using a dark color scheme, especially for the background. This one does but it manages to get away with it. In fact, we think it is the smartest choice, owing to the bright yellow tones in their logo.

Welcome to Riviera Play, a casino where there are plenty of games waiting and looking great against that dark background. If you want to know everything possible about using this casino, you are in the right place to get that knowledge.

Three key software providers are part of this site

You can expect to see some familiar game titles when you arrive at Riviera Play Casino. Some are in glorious 3D, created by Betsoft. Others are the famous i-Slots from Rival Gaming. There are still more games sitting alongside those too, these ones coming from Vivo Gaming.

The three providers pull together to add a good and varied mix of titles to the casino. We doubt many players will be disappointed with the spread of themes and entertainment they will find here.

Is it possible to join Riviera Play if you live in Australia, Canada, Europe, or the USA?

This is one of those casinos that is vague about this in the terms and conditions. Don’t expect to find a neat list of answers, with countries that are banned and countries that are welcome. Instead, you need to see whether your location allows online gambling by law. If it does, it looks as if Riviera Play will welcome you to sign up. If you cannot legally gamble online where you live, then you won’t be able to join.

Five types of games on offer

The menu of casino games is quite simple at Riviera Play. There is an area for all the slot games to sit in, for example. We also get a separate area for video slots, though. The remaining areas are for table games, video poker, and games featuring live dealers. Many casinos also reserve some space for specialty games, but that’s not true of this one.

Video slots or just slots?

We highlighted the two areas where you can find your choice of slots at Riviera Play. A few key titles are promoted on the home page of the site, but these two areas provide you with a chance to see them all.

The good thing is that while 3D slots do not get their own category, their 3D graphics are spotted in the opening image to promote each game within that section.

Play the demo versions of games first

We always suggest you do this, because you can never tell if a game is going to suit your requirements until you try it. Trouble is, you wouldn’t want to waste money on it if it turns out you don’t like it. That’s one of the reasons why demos are so popular and do well online today.

You must be logged into your Riviera Play account for this to become a possibility. Always be certain you are trying a demo rather than the real game. They look identical – you just need to go for demo credits instead of using your credit balance.

Will you move on to try some real games?

If you do, you are spoiled for choice by visiting Riviera Play. We have already seen there are several categories of games to enjoy here, and you can bet there are lots of titles you may never have discovered. If you find one that you’d like to try out with a few cents up for a wager, you can find whatever you need inside their game collection. Check your balance, find a game to suit your risk level, and get started.

No special section is provided for the new slots

Some casinos do have a dedicated area for all their newest titles to sit in, but this one does not. Don’t worry though – you can find the newest ones in the slots and video slots area. If you know when one of the developers has released a new slot, or is about to do so, you will know which title to look out for.

How good are the promotions at Riviera Play?

If you discover you are permitted to sign up, you can do so without depositing – just to have a look around and maybe try a demo or two. If you want to deposit, be sure to claim the welcome bonus attached to that first deposit. This is worth a cool 300% of your deposit amount. The maximum you can claim is $3k.

Your second deposit receives a slightly smaller boost worth 250% of the amount. The most you can get in bonus cash in this case is still an impressive $2,500. Finally, the third deposit bonus – yes, there is one of those here too – is worth up to $2,000, standing at a 200% deal on top of the amount deposited.

The promotions page also reveals details of comp points, email promotions you will receive as a valued member, and the chance to earn more by referring friends.

No tournaments to be found

There is nothing of this nature at Riviera Play just now.

Find out how to get your payouts before you join

We always believe it is right to get this information before you sign up as a member of a casino. In doing so, you can see how easy it is to bank with them. There are several ways to get hold of anything you get in prize money, so you can read about these prior to playing.

The casino doesn’t share news of other winners, so you cannot find out who has gotten lucky of late.

Get ready to earn some comp point rewards

If you intend to play games at Riviera Play Casino with real cash wagers in place, you will begin to earn some comp points. These are collected for you, so you can always see how many points have accrued inside your account.

Meanwhile, the casino also has a VIP club… but this is not open to all members. It is exclusive, which is not always the case at online casinos. If you do qualify to join, you will see there are many other rewards to be had as part of that club.

Mobile casino action to look forward to

Lots of the games available in the regular casino are also available in the mobile casino. Riviera Play has provided a mobile site that looks good on all handheld screens and devices.

You will be pleased to know you should be able to visit Riviera Play on your smartphone and/or tablet, whether it’s an Android, iOS, Windows, or Blackberry one.

No app required to get the best mobile play

This is great news, as you do not need to clog up your device with yet another app. The same URL you would normally visit will automatically direct you to the mobile site if you are on a mobile device. If you are on your computer, you can select either the Flash casino (instant play) or the download (which is free).

Can you play some games without signing up for an account?

No, this isn’t a possibility at this website. If you qualify to sign up as a member in your country or jurisdiction, you can go through to the demo games. However, that is only possible for members.

Will you go for Flash games rather than the casino download?

If so, you have a chance to play faster than you ever thought possible. You can check out the Flash casino by making sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash on your computer. You must allow Flash to run on Riviera Play, and you’ll see a message asking you to confirm that you are allowing this to occur. Say yes, and you will then be able to load all the instant play games you want.

Is it worth becoming an affiliate for Riviera Play?

This will depend on whether you have a website focused on some aspect of online gaming. Would any of your visitors like to learn more about online casinos? If so, you might be able to earn cash from referring new players to Riviera Play.

Look for the link on the casino website that takes you to the Winner Partner site. This reveals the information you will need to know. It is also where you will need to sign up if you do want to go ahead.

Would you like to try any live dealer games?

If so, Riviera Play Casino has things well taken care of in that area too. There aren’t that many game choices, but you do get all the ones you are likely to want to play. These range from blackjack to roulette, baccarat to craps, and even through to Caribbean Stud Poker. Get that poker face good and ready!

Depositing funds at this casino

You should expect to find the typical mix of card options and e-wallets at this casino. While some online casinos provide only the most limited range of deposit options, this one manages to give you all the best ones and a few more besides.

What about cashing out – how easy is it to complete?

You will need to follow the instructions provided to make sure cashing out is as easy as it can be. Visit the banking page and you will see what you need to do there. You can also select which option is going to be best for you when you want to withdraw some winnings.

Is there a chance to use Bitcoin at this casino?

It doesn’t seem so, as we could find no evidence it was included on the banking page or elsewhere on the site.

What about finding some help?

At the top of the casino site, you will see a support link. Selecting this means you will see all the support methods available to you. The best is the live chat feature, which is available during the hours shown. You can also send an email to their support address if your query is not urgent.

Unusually, they do not have an FAQ area to resort to before getting in touch. Maybe they will rectify that in future.
