Pinup Casino Review - Banking, Bonuses and Software

Review

Welcome Bonus

PinUp offers a generous welcome bonus with a 120% match up to 7500, plus 250 free spins. Other promotions include a no-deposit birthday bonus, free spins, and cashback.

The casino boasts thousands of slots and other games, extensive banking options including cryptocurrency, and a dedicated Android app (with an iOS app in development).

Introduction

Opening up the PinUp casino homepage reveals a busy place with red, green, and even the occasional splash of yellow surrounding the links to the cash and free spins of the welcome bonus, slots, poker, live casino, and other games.

PinUp belongs to Carletta N.V, a company registered in both Curacao and Cyprus, and the Curacao license comes from Antillephone N.V. With more than 70 software providers, plenty of banking options, and a wide range of bonuses, PinUp has been serving players since 2016. It also offers a sportsbook.

Software

It would be a bit much to list all 70 software providers here, but rest assured that PinUp has a full lineup of recognized, trusted names and fresh up-and-comers offering the best in modern slot technology. Here are just a few of them:

• BetSoft
• Big Time Gaming
• Booming Games
• Habanero
• iSoftBet
• NetEnt
• Play’n GO
• Pragmatic Play
• Quickspin
• Red Tiger
• Thunderkick
• Tom Horn Gaming
• Yggdrasil

Slots

With all those providers, you can imagine that there are a lot of different slots in the PinUp casino. In fact, there are thousands of them! You'll find old favorites and new discoveries, simple classics and complex innovations, and all kinds of themes and features. Here's a small selection:

• Big Bass Bonanza
• Book of Dead
• Book of Ra
• Gates of Olympus
• Tombstone RIP

Mobile Product & App

Not everyone gambles on their computer these days. If you’re on the go, you want your favorite casino and games to be available on your preferred mobile device. Sometimes this just means opening it in your mobile browser, but for Android users, it could also mean downloading the dedicated app.

For iOS users, you may have to wait for a compatible app to be developed.

Live Casino

Head over to the live casino to find experienced and professional dealers guiding you through an authentic, real-time playing experience. As with most live casinos, blackjack and roulette are at the top of the list of games, but there are also opportunities to try everything from baccarat to game shows. Playtech, Pragmatic Play, and Evolution, some of the biggest names out there, provide the software.

Banking

Modern casinos need modern banking options, and PinUp is able to accept everything from traditional bank transfers to e-wallets and cryptocurrency. Choose the option that suits you best, keeping in mind that processing times and minimum and maximum limits can vary between methods.

• Visa
• MasterCard
• Interac
• Bank transfer
• Bitcoin
• Ethereum
• Tether
• Dogecoin
• Litecoin

Withdrawal Times

There’s a 48-hour pending period when you first withdraw from PinUp while your details are verified. E-wallets and cryptocurrency offer the fastest withdrawals. They’re processed almost instantly, and the money should be with you within 24 hours. Debit cards, credit cards, and bank transfers usually take 2 to 5 days. Make sure your account is properly verified and you have met any wagering requirements to speed up the process.

Support

PinUp offers you multiple ways to contact customer support at all hours from wherever you are in the world. You can email them at [email protected] or message their Telegrambot (@PinupSupportBot). Then there’s the live chat option, although it does start with a bot rather than a person.

Responsible Gambling

Most casinos will have a page where they provide important information about responsible gambling. It’s good to remind yourself, even if you know the general principles. It entails practices such as having a budget and sticking to your limits, never chasing losses, and knowing when to walk away.

The age verification process is also part of responsible gambling as it prevents minors from developing harmful habits. If you need a little extra help, email or message PinUp, and the customer service team will help you out with their timeout and self-exclusion options.

Security

SSL encryption is the standard for modern casinos, especially those that are licensed, and it’s the level of protection you’ll find at PinUp. This keeps your data and your money safe. You can also do your part by choosing a secure password and properly verifying your identity.

Fairness and Legitimacy

One reason that casinos participate in licensing programs like the one in Curacao is that it allows them to reassure players that they are legitimate. To comply with its license conditions, PinUp has to play fairly, including ensuring that all game results are decided by a random number generator and that any player who meets the requirements is able to claim any available bonus.

Welcome Bonus

Promotions may vary between casinos, but most places will at least have a welcome bonus to sweeten the pot when you’re first considering joining. For PinUp, that means that when you sign up and make a deposit of at least $15, you’ll be eligible for a 120% match up to $7500, plus 250 free spins. No promo code is necessary.

While some other games are available, the bulk of your bonus money will have to be staked on slots. The wagering requirements are x50. There’s also a fairly short window for you to meet those requirements of 72 hours; most casinos will give you at least a week, sometimes more.

No-Deposit Bonus

As you may have noticed, the welcome bonus requires you to make a deposit before you can claim it. The birthday bonus, however, requires you to enter your birthdate in your profile, verify your email, and upload your photo ID as proof of identity and age. Even without a deposit, you’ll be credited $10 on your birthday. You still have to meet the x50 wagering requirements and 72-hour time limit.

Free Spins Bonus

Another bonus available at PinUp is the free spins bonus. It’s unlocked when you make a deposit of at least $50. That will earn you your first 50 spins, with another 40 spins awarded every day for the subsequent 5 days. That’s 250 spins in all. This time, you have 48 hours to redeem the spins, then 24 hours to meet the x50 wagering requirement.

Bonus Codes, Vouchers, and Promo Codes

In addition to the previously mentioned bonuses, PinUp offers regular cashback for unlucky players. You can see up to 10% of your losing bets for the week returned on Mondays:

• From $50 = 5% cashback
• From $200 = 7% cashback
• From $1000 = 10% cashback

None of these existing bonuses need promo codes, and there’s no mention of a loyalty program, but it’s always worth double-checking the promotions page in case new offers have been added.
