William Hill Casino is owned and operated by the UK based William Hill Company founded by William Hill back in 1934. Originally just a sports book, the expanded services now include, in addition to sports betting, a full service casino. The site also includes a separate poker room and bingo room.
The casino itself is relatively new, originating in 2009. Actually, there are three casinos in one which gets to be rather confusing: the Bonus Casino, the Vegas Casino, and the Live Casino.
William Hill Casino is licensed in Gibraltar and powered by software from Playtech, one of the leading online casino providers. The state-of-the-art client is easily downloaded to your personal computer, and once it’s complete you’ll have unrestricted access to over 200 games. If you’re happier to play on the fly then you can simply open up a browser window and start enjoying the instant play games on offer. Some William Hill games can also be enjoyed on mobile devices.
William Hill Casino is enjoyed by players all over the world. However, at the present time, this casino, like many others, is off limits to U.S. residents.
Games
William Hill can hardly claim to be one of the largest online casinos in terms of number of games, since there are some mega casinos with more than twice as many. However, the 200+ games you will find at William Hill is still a respectable number. Not only are the well known varieties of both slots and table casino games represented, you will find interesting twists on some of these games.
Both the Welcome Bonus for new players and the monthly loyalty rewards program are different for the two casinos. So comparing the two and seeing which you like better might factor into where you play as well as the games themselves. If you are still undecided what to play, you can take advantage of the play for free option.
If slots are your favorite game, you will not be disappointed. There are plenty of slots to choose from in both casinos. Also, the generous Welcome Bonus that the casino offers when you first sign up was created with slot players in mind. So pick whatever game you think might be luckiest for you.
Your choice includes classic 3 reels and action-packed 5 reel video slots, Marvel slots featuring many of your favorite movie and comic book characters, and progressive slots that offer life changing jackpots. If you are a big sports fan, you might find the sports themed slots especially appealing. There are many of those, reflecting the firm’s early sports betting background.
On the other hand, if you are more of table games player, you, too, should like the diverse sampling available to you, in particular the different versions of blackjack and roulette. Just remember, if you are playing a variation of a game that is not familiar to you, read up on the rules and playing strategy beforehand. If you want to test your skill and nerve in another online game, there’s also a great poker room to try. William Hill Poker is one of our recommended online poker sites which offers excellent customer service and big welcome bonuses.
Also, don’t forget to check out William Hill’s third casino, the Live Dealer Casino. An increasing number of online casinos are now offering this exciting option, usually for three games only-blackjack, roulette, and baccarat. At William Hill, in addition to getting to try all of those, you can see how you fare in live Casino Hold ‘Em and Three Card Poker. It is also worth noting that the live dealer roulette games are the more favorable to the player European and French Roulette (with just a single zero) and not American Roulette (with a double zero). And here’s another tip-make your first visit to the Live Dealer Casino on a Tuesday or Wednesday, so in case you lose your first $20, the casino will return it to you.
Whilst the William Hill site lacks any indication of an eCogra certificate, the games have been tested independently for their levels of fairness by Technical Systems Testing, a reputable firm. We would, however, had like to have seen formal verification of reported payouts from the site.
Deposits and Withdrawals
William Hill has fast, secure, and safe banking. With the use of highly advanced encryption technology, all of your information is fully protected along with and financial transactions that you may have made. In addition, you have many different banking methods to choose from, so finding one you can use conveniently should not be a problem. To see if your preferred method of banking is available then we suggest checking directly with the online casino.
Exciting Extras
William Hill Casino has a £50 bonus for you if you refer a friend who signs up and plays. Your friend gets the bonus, too. Both bonuses have playthrough requirements for withdrawal. You can access this bonus with multiple friends.
Mobile
The William Hill software is powered by Playtech, making it intuitive to use and beautifully colored. There is a downloadable app, or you can play straight in the web casino through your devices, which can be Android-based or iOS-based. If you are using a Mac or iPhone you don’t have the choice to download the app, but the web-based version works just as well. Unfortunately, the mobile version contains only a few of the all-time favorite games that William Hill usually offers, but this will hopefully change in the future. The games that are available will keep you busy for at least some time.
Conclusion
Now this is one company that’s been around for a while. At near a century old, William Hill Casino has come a long way since its conception as a sports bookie in 1934. It offers a bit of everything there is to offer by an online casino: some slots, some table games, some sports betting, a bit of bingo. With over 200 games the William Hill Casino offers new players a whole lot of choices to make, despite the fact that its Welcome bonus is mostly geared towards slot games. For experienced players, and especially high rollers, there are loyalty programs that bring extra points and further bonuses.
