Maple Casino Review

Updated August 1 2007

The word Maple inspires images of the Canadian Flag in most people's minds and bearing that in mind Maple Casino has carried their strong Canadian theme throughout the website, which is designed in the traditional Red and White and complete with Maple leaves and Moose, making you feel like saying "How's it going eh?".

Don't be deceived by the Canadian theme though, this casino is not only for Canadian Players, although it does cater to this market, but has gained worldwide popularity and has international visitors on a daily basis. Part of the highly respected Vegas Partner Lounge group, this casino has earned a great deal of trust and credibility despite being a relatively new casino in the industry and one thing is for sure, it's thriving!

Welcome Bonus and Promotional Offerings

It's pretty difficult to know where to look when you first see the Maple Casino Site as it is really busy with so many things flashing at you, but ten to one your eye will come to rest on the Welcome Bonus. Currently, Maple Casino is offering New Players a 150% match bonus, so if your initial deposit is $40 you'll get a bonus of $60 and will have $100 to play with (This offer is of course subject to terms and conditions, in this case a 30 play through and 100 bets on your first purchase before you can cashin).

In addition to the welcome bonus, Maple Casino offers regular players a Free bonus on each and every deposit...yes, you read that right! Should you deposit using one of Maple Casino's preferred payment methods you will be subject to an additional bonus of 15% (Up to $3,000) when depositing via Neteller, UsemyBank, MoneyBookers, Money or Wire Transfers. There is also a 10% bonus (up to $2,000) when depositing via Ukash, Paysafecard, EcoCard, EziPay or Click2Pay; and a 5% bonus up to ($2,000) when using your Debit Card, Visa/Mastercard or Instadebit. Not bad at all!

Loyalty

The Maple Casino loyalty programs operates pretty much the same as most loyalty programs out there where you earn points for every $10 you bet and then these can be redeemed for Casino Cash. So the more you play, the more you earn. Unlike some other programs though, you need to register as a loyal player, so don't forget to do this.

 

Download and Registration

Whether you prefer the Instant Play (Flash) or Download version of a casino, Maple Casino is able to accommodate you. And if you find that the download is too much, Maple Casino also provides a free software CD which you can order directly from the website, only problem with this is that you have to wait to get it before you play (unless of course you opt for the Flash version in the meantime).

I always download casinos where possible and this one was no different. If I recall correctly, it didn't take more than a few minutes to download and install the casino (although I was using a broadband connection.

Once you've completed the download or opened the Flash version in your browser, you will need to register either a Real or Guest Player account by filling in a registration form containing certain personal particulars. Once this is done you'll be ready to login to the casino.

Banking

You can see just how far Maple Casino caters to the international marketing in their banking options which encompass methods from all over the world including Wire Transfer, Neteller, Click2Pay, Moneybookers, Pay Spark, UseMyBank, Solo/Switch/Delta Card, Credit Card, Firepay, Citadel, Ukash, and Paysafe Card. Players can also deposit via US Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Great British Pounds or Euro.

All transactions are perfectly safe and secure so I didn't think twice about depositing $100 using my Neteller account. Shortly thereafter the money was credited to my casino account and it was off to the Casino Lobby to check out their games offering.

Games Offering

Powered by Microgaming on the Viper platform, Maple Casino has a good variety of 250 games to choose from and these are efficiently laid out according to game genre within the casino lobby. As with all Microgaming games, the graphics are state of the art, the sound quality is amazing and you'll be amazed at how entertaining the game play is.

Maple Casino offers large varieties of Table and Card Games, Video Poker, Progressive Jackpots, Reel and Video Slots. I decided to start of with Video Poker for a change and selected a multi-hand version in the form of Double Joker 50 Play Power Poker. This game is a lot of fun and really keeps you busy, the pace is fast and fun. Only thing about this game is that you can either win or lose more than you usually do on Video Poker and if you happen to be on a losing streak your money doesn't last as long as it usually does on normal Video Poker.

Next I decided to move onto the Table and Card Games, and while the selection was overwhelming, I finally settled on a good old fashioned game of Atlantic City Blackjack and did I have fun! My first three hands were winners, the next two busts and then I had another winning streak. Running on adrenaline I decided to tryout a multi-hand game and chose Multi-hand Vegas Strip Blackjack which once again was superb, great when you're winning but expensive when you're not.

I skipped over the other table games which include the usual favorites like Roulette, Poker, Baccarat, Casino War and more and made my way to the Slots section of the casino lobby. I'm not really a Reel slots fan but if you are there are plenty of games to choose from. Instead I decided to stick with the Video Slots and played the gangster themed Loaded where I won $300. I also tried my hand at Big Kahuna, Genies Gems, and my favorite, Thunderstruck.

With $20 left in my bankroll I decided to go all or nothing on the Progressive Slots hoping that Tunzamunni would give me just that but unfortunately it didn't and so I had to wrap up my session.

Customer Support

Maple Casino offers 24/7 support via E-mail, Toll Free Telephone and Live Chat and boasts a friendly and efficient team that will help you with whatever query or problem you may have.

 

The Verdict

Maple Casino is a great place to play and you don't have to be Canadian to have fun here. Being a Microgaming casino, the games are excellent, as is the service and banking facilities. No wonder Maple Casino is doing so well...I would definitely recommend this casino to anyone.
