Wazamba Casino Review

When it comes to choosing an online casino, most players just want a good selection of games and a decent welcome bonus. It can be tough for casinos to differentiate themselves when players are mainly focused on bonuses.

However, Wazamba Casino has a unique approach. They offer a wide range of extra features in the hopes that at least one of them will appeal to players regardless of what they’re looking for. This includes sports betting, slot game tournaments, live games, achievements, cashback promos, avatar creation, and more.

But will all of these features be enough to attract players, or are they just superficial additions with no real substance?

Bonuses

Welcome bonus package – up to 750 CAD + 200 Free spins + 1 Bonus Crab

The welcome bonus at Wazamba Casino is geared more toward players who prefer free spins rather than cash bonuses. The 100% match bonus has a maximum limit of 750 CAD, which may be sufficient for some players, but is much lower compared to what other casinos offer – often reaching up to 5,000 CAD.
However, the main attraction of the welcome package is definitely the free spins, which are activated after the first deposit (as opposed to being distributed over the first few deposits at other casinos). If your first deposit is at least 30 CAD, you will get 200 free spins – it’s a very good and rare deal that will likely appeal to most slot fans.

Live Cashback

If you enjoy playing live casino games, you may be disappointed to learn that the wagering requirements for these games are higher than those for slot games, and you cannot earn “coins” (Wazamba’s loyalty points currency) by placing bets on them. However, the casino is offering a promotion specifically for the live section to compensate.
During the week (Monday-Sunday), Wazamba Casino will track the amount you wager on live games and give you 25% of that amount as cashback, up to 300 CAD. This is a great deal, especially since you are automatically enrolled in the promotion at the start of each week.

Weekend Reload Bonus

This promotion is available for the first deposit made each week from Friday at 12:00 am until Sunday at 11:59 pm. The minimum deposit to qualify for the 50% bonus is 20 CAD, and the maximum bonus amount is 1,050 CAD. But if your first deposit for the week is 75 CAD or more, you get 50 bonus spins.
As a bonus, players who make a deposit are entitled to a “bonus crab” – a special feature for the game “Cash Crab” that will provide an additional boost to their total bonus.

Games

There is not much to complain about the variety of games available at Wazamba Casino. Slot fans will be pleased to find that the casino offers thousands of them from almost every software developer available in Canada.

Even if slots are not your thing, you can still enjoy dozens of live games, table games, and sports betting – making Wazamba one of the few casinos available to Canadian players with these features. While some sections may be better than others, overall, Wazamba’s offerings are very satisfying.

Slots

It is an accurate statement to say that Wazamba Casino has a very extensive selection of slots. The casino currently offers over 4,000 different slot games from over 50 developers, which includes almost every slot provider that operates in the Canadian market. If there is a slot game you enjoy, you will likely find it at Wazamba Casino.

It is also rare to find arcade slots at the casino, which allow you to bet on your skills rather than just luck. These games, such as Cash Smash, Cash Quiz, Tap Tap Smash, Speedy Candy, and Galaxy Wing, can be found in the “arcade” section and do actually pay out. This is good news for slot fans who are looking for something different from the traditional format.

Live casino

Although the selection of games at the live casino section is not as large as that of the slots, there should still be plenty of options available for players who prefer to play with a real dealer. In addition to popular games like blackjack and roulette, you can also try out less well-known titles like wheel games (such as Monopoly, Crazy Time, and Dream Catcher), Bac Bo, and Andar Bahar.

Deposits & Withdrawals

Although Wazamba Casino does not offer the widest variety of payment options we’ve seen, there are still plenty of choices to ensure that you can both deposit and withdraw using your preferred method. Please note that the casino will generally default to the same method you used for your deposit for withdrawals unless this is not possible for some reason.

Withdrawal time

Based on our experience, the withdrawal time at Wazamba Casino varies depending on the method used to withdraw winnings. E-wallets such as AstroPay are the fastest, taking less than a day. Debit cards are next, with a transfer completion time of around 2-3 days. As for cryptocurrencies, the speed varies. Tether is fast, while Bitcoin and Dogecoin are known to be slow, and this is also the case at Wazamba Casino.

VIP Program

Wazamba Coins

Wazamba Casino has a unique loyalty program that is inspired by modern video games. It allows players to earn “achievements” – various milestones they can complete to earn coins and level up.

The conditions for these achievements vary but generally involve playing a specific game, placing a certain bet, or using a feature of the casino. When an achievement is completed, it is considered unlocked and rewards the player with ten coins.

There are other ways to earn coins besides achievements, such as placing bets (1.5 CAD earns one coin), making deposits (1.5 CAD earns 30 coins), or winning in tournaments. These coins can be exchanged for various prizes at the casino’s shop.

Most players will likely exchange their coins for cash prizes and free spins, but adventurous gamblers can also purchase various outfit options and accessories for their “crab” avatar.

VIP Cashbacks

In addition to the coins, Wazamba Casino has a separate loyalty program that rewards players with VIP levels. The more you deposit, bet, and participate in promotions and tournaments, the higher your VIP level will become. This VIP level determines the maximum amount you are allowed to withdraw in winnings each day.

Tournaments

Tournaments are a great way to earn both cash prizes and coins that can be spent in the shop. They also provide an opportunity to showcase your customized crab avatar to other players. If you manage to rank in the top 5 in a tournament, your crab will be displayed prominently on the main tournaments page, which is an incentive to dress it up with cool gear.

It is clear that tournaments are a significant focus for the creators of Wazamba Casino, and we are happy to report that there are many tournaments available, offering a good variety for most players. Most of the tournaments are for slots – by participating and placing bets on a specific slot game or group of games, you can earn points to move up the leaderboard.

There are numerous tournaments for various slots available at any time, but if those are not your preference, do not worry! There are also a few tournaments for live casino games and even one for sports betting that becomes active occasionally. Regardless of what aspect of online gambling you enjoy, it is definitely worth checking out the tournaments section.

Verification

Like most online casinos, you will not need to undergo any additional verification procedures when creating your account and making your first deposit. Owning a payment method registered in your name is considered sufficient proof that you are a legal adult who is permitted to gamble.

For us, the sign-up process took only a few minutes to complete and required minimal information from us. All that was needed was an email address, phone number, and postal address. The registration form was straightforward, a confirmation email was sent to us in seconds, and once we had verified our email, we had full access to all the features and games available on the Wazamba website. It was a seamless experience, and we were able to start playing our favourite games almost immediately after registering.

However, when it is time to withdraw, money laundering laws apply, and being an adult is no longer enough – you must also prove that you are not attempting to launder money for nefarious purposes. Nevertheless, while the process can be inconvenient – it is not particularly difficult.

The casino will request that you provide several documents, including a certified ID (such as a national ID card or driver’s license), proof of residence (such as a utility bill or delivery receipt), proof of ownership of your payment method, and transaction history to verify the source of your income. The casino may also request additional documents at its discretion.

Once the request is made, you have 30 days to comply, and the verification process can take up to 10 days. In our experience, however, it usually only takes a few days to complete.

Is Wazamba Casino Legit & safe?

Yes, Wazamba Casino is a legitimate and legal online casino. We have personally verified its license and can confirm that it is a trustworthy and legitimate platform. Canadian players are not prohibited from playing at licensed and legal online casinos, so playing at Wazamba Casino is completely safe.

Customer support

Currently, there are only two ways to contact customer support if you encounter a problem at Wazamba Casino. The most convenient option is through the casino’s live chat function, which is available in the sidebar on the right of every page.

If you prefer not to use live chat, you can also contact customer support via email. Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to contact them by phone, which may be a preference for some players. However, live chat is generally the preferred option for most gamblers, so it is not a major issue.

In our experience, the quality of customer support representatives was very poor. Our questions were not answered, and we only received generic, copied responses that did not address our queries. This was a major concern for us, and we would carefully consider this aspect when considering creating an account at the casino.

Mobile casino

We were very impressed by the mobile version of Wazamba Casino. Despite being full of colourful graphics and features, it ran smoothly on our phones with fast loading and no crashes. All of the features and games from the desktop version are also fully available on the mobile casino, making it a great option for when you are on the go.
