If you have played at sites like Casino Gods and Kassu then you will know what to expect here. Genesis have built an excellent platform with over 1,500 slots available to their players. This latest casino has an immersive quality to it, taking you deep into the heart of a gambling metropolis, with neon lights and skyscrapers pointing to a thrilling gaming experience.

Is Casino Planet Legit?

Yes, Casino Planet is a legit slot site. It is owned and operated by Genesis Global Ltd a gambling operator licensed by the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority.

Here are the details of their licenses:

• UK Gambling Commission License –Remote 045235-R-324169-012
• MGA License – MGA/CRP/314/2015

Genesis Global run casinos on 14 different domains under these licenses, many of which you will find are available in the UK and listed on this page.

Regulatory Action

Genesis Global Ltd were fined £3.8 million and had their licenses suspended in 2020 in the UK due to responsible gambling and anti-money laundering failings. In an effort to clean up the industry and under pressure from the media and MPs many such fines have been handed out in the last five years. Other operators to be the subject of action include 888, Entain and Casumo. Since their license was re-instated Genesis have had a clean record. You can read more here.

First Impressions – Website, Brand and Sign-Up

Casino Planet is a typical Genesis Global slot site. It has an immersive theme with all the action set on an inter-planetary landscape in a far-away galaxy with gleaming buildings, shimmering glass and skyscrapers dominating the view. It’s not as original as the steam punk theme used in Casino Lab or the hipster one used in Kassu, but it’s fun and engaging nonetheless.

Beneath the surface this is a standard Genesis website that is straightforward to use. Their sites follow the same template so if you’ve used one, you’ve used them all. Sign up and log in are one step from the home page and the games too.

WHAT OUR REVIEWER SAYS

We have reviewed a few of Genesis Global’s casinos on here and they are all very easy to use. The sign up takes under 2 minutes. I needed to enter the usual details – name, date of birth, full address, email and username. I was not required to provide any documents to verify my ID at this stage. All that was done behind the scenes and I was invited to make a deposit straight away which I did on Paypal.

The screenshots below show my deposit confirmation and the account screen once logged in.

If I go on to deposit or withdraw significant sums I will be asked to provide documentation.  Most sites allow you to upload this through your account but I could find no option to do this at Casino Planet. It something that could be improved as part of their service. After all, it is more comfortable to upload documents via a secure link than it is to send them on email.

Bonuses and Promotions

Sign Up Offer

In recent years the gambling commission has instructed licensees to cut back on the kind of bumper welcome offers made available in the UK and Genesis Global have reduced theirs as result. You can no longer claim the 4-step £1,000 + bonus packages that Casino Planet used to make available. Instead, this is a one-time deal on your first deposit.

• 100% match up to £100
• 50 free spins on 9 Pots of Gold by Gameburger Studios

Genesis is offering this deal across all their sites right now so you can claim it more than once. You will need to deposit at least £10 to qualify and the bonus comes with a 40x wagering requirement. This also applies to any winnings generated by your free spins. These are capped at £100.

WHAT OUR REVIEWER SAYS

This is a good offer in the UK slots market right now. However, there are a few that offer a higher match bonus – you could try Mr Play (100% up to £200) if you want a bit more on your match.

I enjoyed the choice of slot for the free spins. It’s an unusual one. Most sites pick Starburst or Gonzo’s Quest by NetEnt, or Book of Dead by Play n Go, so to have a choice like this is different. It’s a medium variance title with a max win of 2,000x so don’t expect huge payouts but it’s fun nonetheless and with a 96.24% RTP offers good returns.

I should also mention the wagering requirements. These are set a little higher than the competition. 40x is tough. You can get more favourable requirements at Casumo (30x) or MrPlay (35x). Or, you could claim a bonus with NO wagering requirements at Play OJO where you get 50 keep what you win spins on Book of Dead.

The screenshots below show what happens when you make your first deposit. The account page clearly shows the two offers and wagering requirements. When I load up 9 Pots of Gold I have the option to choose to play my spins which I did. I won just £2.73 with 50 spins. The new balance shows in my account with my wagering requirements.

WHAT OUR REVIEWER SAYS

There are few operators who can match Genesis Global for their slots catalogue. You can find better at Play OJO (on Skill on Net) or Casumo, but aside from those two, this is the best for the UK right now.

To find my favourite games I used the filter menu that allows you to pick by game provider or search by game name. You can also look at what are the most popular games on the site at the time you are on, under ‘Trending’ and ‘Hot’, or search by game types like Megaways or Jackpots.

Below you can see a screen shot of Book of Dead in play at Casino Planet.
