In the online casino world, being in the game for a long time gives a site a chance to build up a reputation for being either reliable or a pain to deal with. GTbets Casino doesn't have this luxury because they've only been running since 2015. They're licensed in Curacao, and they haven't really had a chance to build up much of a history. While they have a fair selection of games for a site that accepts US players, including other forms of gambling like sports and horse racing, they currently leave a lot to be desired in terms of how they handle cash outs.
Software Selection
The casino games at this site are powered by the Arrow's Edge platform and BetSoft. The games by Arrow's Edge aren't as well known as the extremely high-quality titles by BetSoft, and for good reason. They can't really compete in terms of graphics, and though they offer fair gameplay, there are plenty of better options for international players. For American players, however, their software represent an extra option in a narrow market.
Mobile Option
Something GTbets Casino does have going for them is a solid mobile app. You connect by just going to their website on your smartphone or tablet, and it will automatically load up the mobile version of the game lobby. It's designed to give you a seamless experience that includes access to all aspects of their operation, not just the casino games. Because it's web-based, you don't need a particular type of phone to play. All you need is a relatively recent phone that can connect to the Internet with an updated web browser to be good to go.
Online Slots
As we mentioned earlier, the BetSoft-powered online slots that this site has available are the crown jewel of the entire operation. Their 3D titles are some of the best in the whole industry, and this is one of the BetSoft-powered sites that accepts US players (not all of them do). As far as the Arrow's Edge slots go, they offer some variety, but they aren't really up there in terms of overall graphical quality. What they do provide is a solid gameplay experience, however, and if you want substance instead of a flashy graphical display, then you'll have no problem with them.
Table Games
The table game selection has a moderate degree of depth. You'll have a handful of blackjack and video poker games available for players who prefer a bit of strategy, and the standard collection of classic titles is also available like craps, roulette and Baccarat. You aren't getting the best selection of table games in the world, but it's more or less on par with what US players are used to. Again, international players most likely won't be impressed with the selection, particularly since there are no live dealer games.
Payments
A good selection of options are available for deposits. This list includes Visa, MasterCard, bitcoin, Skrill, Neteller and Direct Cash options. Neteller and Skrill aren't available to players from North America. For withdrawals, Neteller and Skrill are available, but the selection for US players is pretty terrible.
Bank wires have a flat fee of $60 with a minimum withdrawal of $100. It goes without saying that it's pretty ridiculous. The Direct Cash option has a minimum fee of $50 or eight percent, whichever is higher, and the same fee schedule applies to the QuickCash option. There's a Back2Card option that some Visa and MasterCard players will be able to use, but there's a minimum fee of $15 on top of an additional 1.5 percent of the amount of the cash out.
In the short time GTbets Casino has been running, they haven't had a chance to build a history to determine if their cash outs are reliable or not. However, these fee schedules are pretty outrageous, especially for US players who will have few options that won't take more than half of their withdrawal amount unless they're cashing out relatively large sums.
Customer Support
Like most sites running today, this casino has the standard fare of email, live chat and telephone options. They have the advantage of 24/7/365 support, something that some of their competition does not have. We contacted them via the live chat option, and although it took them a few minutes to answer our questions, once we had the operator's attention, we received very friendly service.
Overview
For international players, there are a lot of options that are a lot better than this one. For US players, because the selection is smaller, the decision isn't as straight-forward. However, because of their short history and extremely high fees on withdrawals, we can't recommend them for US players either.

They give nice cash bonuses regularly, they have casino cash back, and they give free back 2 bets regularly. Payouts take days instead of hours and Iāve always been shorted on my bitcoin withdrawals. Itās almost like a processing fee. The higher the withdrawal amount the more Iām shorted. All in all, they do pay but indirectly charging a fee for crypto withdrawals is pathetic, I know, I know, itās our processor blah blah blah.

Once again Iām a huge fan of the sport betting casinos to play slots at. They are more reliable and responsive in my experience, this casino has unique games and is good for what it is.

Khamo here, where my next edition of how terrible this family of casinos is when it comes to... well, just about everything! This weeks post episode topics: "Customer service..? Or lack there of?" and "How to cheat your players and justify it! The GTBets Way!" (In all fairness, this happens... Khamo here, where my next edition of how terrible this family of casinos is when it comes to... well, just about everything! This weeks post episode topics: "Customer service..? Or lack there of?" and "How to cheat your players and justify it! The GTBets Way!" (In all fairness, this happens to also be the motto of drake and gossipslots, but I'm about 99.9% positive it's the same customer service team that services all three sites.) This was a fascinating week for me whilst dealing with these sites customer service departments. It started with gossipslots, where I made a deposit and was waiting for my lcb shop purchase of some free spins, which I thought I received and turned out to have been some random deposit bonus. I played them, realized they weren't my shop purchase and neither accepted or denied the bonus of a whomping $2, to which I then had a rollover applied to of something along the lines of 80x (a fairly common sizing for gossip and drake). I contacted customer service to let them know I did not want this bonus, and that I was mistaken in thinking those spins were my ones from LCB. They told me, in different words, too bad. As per usual, they ascribed to the policy of "we don't really care about you, we just want your money, and we're going to make it as difficult as possible for you to get it back...BUT we know you'll keep coming back, because we understand the mind of the gambler...) <-- So I'm taking some artistic license with this... apparently in a covid-19 society we can do as we please, as long as we keep our social distancing to an appropriate separation. Onto today, and much to my own dismay... If you've read some of my prior reviews, you may know I have a very special place in my heart for the game "Timebender," which of course is an exclusive to these three casinos... I see on gtbets that their current deposit promo is for free spins on timebender, with $50 being the minimum deposit. I told myself not to do it after I swore off gossip and drake the other day, but alas, today I go to the cashier and line up my deposit for $50. I input the exact amount of LTC requested, coinbase automatically adds their fee on top of that so as to send the proper amount, and click- a few minutes later I see my balance update (a few minutes mind you, well within the allotted 30 min that that deposit amount is supposed to be honored for), $49.90. No free spins. "UGH, now I have to deal with Customer-not-service" I think to myself. I explain my situation, and guess what?! Barely even an apology, and a "nothing we can do about" response. I heed you steer clear of these casinos. I'm honestly shocked to see any good reviews, especially ones that claim they have good customer service. I have had a small handful of positive experiences with their staff, and a garbage truck full of bad ones. The few good reps do not make up for the rest. Find yourself a different house, in my time here I've cashed out once, and that was my initial deposit to GT, and that has been it. If you want the quality you'll get from these casinos, find a dog with a case of bowel irritation, shovel it's business into a toilet, throw your money in with it, and flush! It'll be just like playing slots or anything else at these casinos. Thought I'd be able to post photos of my interaction with the gtbets rep, but I dont see an option to attach files here. Anyway, there's my Sunday don't play here Funday review. Cheers Khamo Also- during this unprecedented pandemic, I hope you all stay healthy and stay safe. As always, good luck wherever you place your bets!

GT bets appears to be the silent sister in the Drake/Gossip family. Same games, same tournaments (and tournament fields; i wonder now how many times i've played these tourneys with my single buy in and others have been on all the sites with three...), and seems to follow the same, or similar... GT bets appears to be the silent sister in the Drake/Gossip family. Same games, same tournaments (and tournament fields; i wonder now how many times i've played these tourneys with my single buy in and others have been on all the sites with three...), and seems to follow the same, or similar practices. Their new player bonus seems good, and with a seemingly low rollover on GT compared to the other 2, but like the other two, I seem to find that I run pretty well on their slots until I start to near my rollover completion, and suddenly I can't hit to save my life. I only rate them slightly higher because they seem to have a lower withdrawal minimum, but that also comes with a higher deposit minimum. Take not of how many times i had to use the word "but" in this review, and remember that when you're at the cashier... "but maybe i should play somewhere else..."

I do not like GT because right away they get on my bad side by not accepting players from every state in the US. I wasnt told this untill after i spent the time registering and then ,surprise,surprise banned.
