Honest SpinAway casino review for Ontario players

I found the games at Spinaway casino quite impressive. Let me explain! The SpinAway online casino Ontario site has over 1,600 casino games available.

Most games are slots from many providers — more on that later. The big disappointment is the progressives. There are just two, a far cry from the 40+ found at Dream Vegas. 

SpinAway does shine in its live casino section with nearly 40 options provided by Evolution Gaming and Pragmatic Play. These providers are well-known for their top-quality live dealer games, delivering an immersive and interactive casino experience. However, it’s worth noting that BetVictor seems to outdo SpinAway in this department with over 60 titles, including exclusive options for Ontario players.

In summary, while SpinAway casino offers an impressive variety of games, particularly in the slots category and live casino, there’s potential for enhancement, especially in the progressive jackpot game offerings, to cater to a broader range of player preferences.

So, I’ve said it already in this review, but the games at SpinAway casino are somewhat lacking, and this is due, in part, to the providers on offer. Now, the selection should be better with 29 developers on the roster. 

And actually, it is when it comes to the live games. Okay, only two providers are manning this site section, which isn’t as good as the three available on CasiGO, but both are market leaders. 

The fact that both Evolution and Pragmatic Play are the providers of choice at SpinAway casino stands out in favour of this casino website. Both produce high-quality games with professional dealers in place. And, at least there is a live section, something completely lacking regarding Casino Classic. 

Of course, this is not to put down the games in other areas of this online casino; far from it. While there is a heavy lean toward virtually unknown providers such as Triple Edge Studios, Infinity Dragons and Skillzz Gaming, it does mean more unique slot games and table games are offered. 

I, for one, will never complain about that. That being said, having a few more big-name providers would be nice, especially regarding the progressives. The site uses Microgaming yet features just two of their Mega Moolah-inspired progressive jackpot slots alongside NetEnt’s Divine Fortune. At least there is a little choice, I suppose! 

With only five payment options available, you’re slightly limited here. That being said, MuchBetter is an option and a good one. It’s probably the most convenient option, particularly if you’re looking for fast transactions — avoid the bank transfer if this is the case. 

While everything, in theory, looks good, I was annoyed at how little information is provided about the different payment method options. In short, there’s barely anything available on the home page, which is a big pain. 

The bare minimum regarding a minimum or maximum deposit or withdrawal limit is not provided here. Instead, the FAQs are spectacularly unhelpful, simply outlining some of the more mundane aspects of casino banking. 

To get hold of some of this information, you have to make a casino account and then select the payment method you’re going to use. Then, and only then, are you given more of the information. This contrasts Casumo, which gives you all the information you need at every turn. 

Similarly, while the Help section cheerfully outlines that all requests are processed in 24 hours (nicely beating out Dream Vegas and its 48-hour pending period, at least), there’s no mention of how long the rest of the transaction will take. I can only assume anywhere from 2 to 5 days, like everywhere else. 

On the surface, there’s nothing wrong with what SpinAway offers regarding safety and security. It does check the boxes; it simply doesn’t go above and beyond, and I wouldn’t say I like that. 

For instance, look at LeoVegas, where you can find unique safety measures, a whopping 2048-bit RSA with 256-bit SSL encryption and much more. In contrast, SpinAway has just 128-bit, which is adequate; it’s not great. 

Another area where I felt let down was the games. I can assume that most of these providers are reputable, but only a few of the ones here are big names or suppliers I have even heard of. I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt here. 

Finally, we come to responsible gambling tools. SpinAway has them in place, including bet limits, cooling off and self-exclusion. But they don’t make it easy, nor are they very strict. 

If the self-exclusion period is only available for 30 days, is it even exclusion? Other sites, such as BetMGM or 888Casino, have 6-month or even year-long exclusions, which should also be an option. 

Strange as this may seem, this review section is one of the higher-scoring sections. Despite not having a dedicated mobile app, SpinAway casino gets good scores here for the sheer usability of the mobile platform. 

A big point favouring the mobile site is that it requires little to no relearning. The mobile website is the same as the desktop site. And, as the desktop site is already very minimalist, this design works well on the small screen. 

I could find all the same table games and slots on the mobile version, just as I could on the desktop site. My only quibble is that there are still minimal game categories and no filters. 

This is an issue with the overall design rather than the mobile site itself. Surprisingly, despite being minimalist, the mobile platform is easily on par with the one Nitro Casino offers for ease of use. 

And, in fact, it rather beats out JackpotCity in this area since this casino severely reduces the number of games available on its mobile app. It’s not so SpinAway, so it does take the lead here. 

I am ambivalent about SpinAway casino’s support, if I am being perfectly honest here. So, yes, live support is offered daily, but whether this is 24/7 is unclear. Additionally, it’s not a straightforward process, as you have to go through the Help section. 

Ideally, I want to see a sticky live chat so that I can click on it no matter when or where on the site I am. Think Dream Vegas and its supremely accessible live chat; you’ll know what I am looking for here. 

Additionally, while some sites like LeoVegas bombard you with detailed FAQs and Help sections, SpinAway does not. This is an area severely lacking on this casino website. 

There is a Help section, but this is filled with very basic questions and even more basic answers – including the availability of the customer support team! The section should be labelled unhelpful, as it often raises more questions than answers. After all, what does “on hand to assist seven days a week” mean? 

When you get in touch, though, the support is helpful and friendly, which did help to pull up the score here. But in general, this is not one of the site’s best features and could do with some work. 

I feel like I am complaining here but with good reason. Even though SpinAway casino offers a squarely adequate interface, it’s still just that. Adequate. There’s nothing inherently wrong with it; it’s not great, either. 

The site is very minimal and uncluttered. This is far better than dealing with the cluttered mess and complex navigation that JackpotCity offers or the abrupt change in design from the home page to the leading site that Golden Tiger offers. But this minimalism does make the site a little boring. 

I enjoyed that each game section lists the number of games available. And, if you search for a provider, you can see the exact number of games they offer. 

So, my question is, why not have more filters? The system is part way there; it stops short, which frustrates me. Maybe they can add more once they get more settled. 

The simplicity does work for the mobile site, though and does mean that, unlike JackpotCity (again), there were no lags, missing links or dead ends. At least I ended up where I wanted to go. That being said, it’s still a far cry from BetMGM’s impressively intuitive gaming platform.
