Platinum Play Casino was launched in early 2004 by the Fortune Lounge Group, whose decade of experience in the online gambling industry has carried over a distinguished reputation to all of its gaming sites. Over the last 5 years, Platinum Play Casino has developed its own reputation for excellency, offering quality software, consistent promotions and a diverse game variety that includes regular slots tournaments.

The online casino is licensed and regulated by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission, using Microgaming's superior software platform. Players can download the software on their PC, or take advantage of an instant-play Flash casino, convenient when you're away from home, or running a Mac/Linux operating system.

Platinum Play Casino gives players the opportunity to partake in over 400 casino games, including all of the classic Vegas-style games, as well as some unique varieties less common along major casino strips. All games are available for real-money play, or just for fun.

The online casino gives new members 1,500 free bet credits, with no deposit required. Simply sign up a new account, claim the 1,500 no-deposit bonus and click the 'Star Free Bets' button. You'll have 24 hours to win as much as you can from the bonus. Any amount over the original 1,500, up to 100, is yours to keep. Win or lose, your first deposit is still eligible for a 100% up to $200 welcome bonus, depending on your chosen deposit method. EcoCard, EntroPay, NETeller and Click2Pay deposits only receive a 10% up to $100 welcome bonus. To claim the 200% up to $100 welcome bonus, use promo code 'PP100FREE'.

Being a Microgaming casino, Platinum Play is not able to accept any players from the United States. Thankfully, they do not misrepresent themselves in any way. It is clear and upfront that US players will not be permitted to deposit. Accepted regions are depicted by the numerous flags at the top of the page, also pertaining to the languages support by the software (see software and Graphics below).

Platinum Play Software and Graphics

Platinum Play Casino employs the number one casino software platform in the business, developed by Microgaming. The 3D graphics, realistic emulation and massive game variety have propelled Microgaming to the top of the casino software industry, where its sat for quite some times now. There are more than 400 games to choose from, each designed to be as realistic and true-to-form as the live casino experience.

The software is available in a fully functional download, offering the full game variety and best streaming graphical quality. The download is, however, compatible with Windows PC only (including Vista). Fortunately, Platinum Play Casino also supplies an instant-play Flash casino that is equally user-friendly, but not quite as exquisite as the desktop download. The Flash casino is compatible with all major operating systems, PC, Mac and Linux.

The online casino seems to make the most effort towards accommodating as many players as possible. Though US player acceptance is not possible due to its association with Microgaming, Platinum Play's software does support multiple languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.

Platinum Play Customer Support

Platinum Play has gotten a lot of praise in this department. The customer support team is fast, efficient and very professional. We've also seen a lot of instances where players claim that they have been offered special, unpublished bonuses simply by calling customer support and having an amiable attitude; and also by simply asking if the pit bosses were feeling generous.

Support options include 24hr live chat, email and telephone assistance, with toll-free numbers available to 19 countries.
