Introduction
5Gringos is a modern online casino innovation licensed by Curacao. The newcomer offers a versatile hybrid-style option for players who can't decide between a traditional online casino and an instant casino. Playing at 5Gringos is possible both directly through online banking credentials and through the traditional online authentication model. If you wish, you can also authenticate using your online banking credentials, but still deposit using a different method.
This new casino is managed by Rabidi N.V. and, at least initially, will operate under a Curacao license (8048/JAZ). It remains to be seen whether the casino will expand to an EU licence in the future. Our 5Gringos review delves into the different aspects of the casino, from the bonus to the features and game selection. Take a look at the details.
5Gringos Bonuses
5Gringos offers a wide range of deposit bonuses, which requires a little getting to know at first. The casino doesn't offer just one welcome bonus in the traditional style but comes with several different bonuses. In keeping with the theme of the casino, there are of course 5 welcome bonuses on offer, this is 5Gringos after all. Here are all the welcome offer options:
- 100% bonus up to €500 + 200 free spins
- Up to €1000 bonus with 3 deposits
- 200% bonus up to €50
- 15% live cashback up to €250
- Up to 500 free spins per deposit (€1 = 1 free spin)
Each bonus comes with slightly different terms and conditions, and these can be easily checked directly on the casino's offers page. Please note that a wagering requirement is usually presented for both deposit and bonus at this casino.
Free spins are available right from the start, with two different welcome offer options containing their own selection of free spins. For the biggest fans of free spins, the last offer option is probably best, with up to 500 free spins up for grabs. Alongside the Welcome Offer, free spins are also given away as a side effect of other promotions. You can find information on all current promotions via the 5Gringos promotions page.
5Gringos Payments
Deposits are one of the best things about 5Gringos. Traditionally, when talking about instant casinos, one can forget about all other payment methods except online payment. However, this casino combines the power of online banking authentication and a wide range of deposit options into one great package. You can simply log in with your online banking credentials if you wish, and then transfer money from Skrill or a debit card to your account, for example. Alternatively, you can use the casino like any other instant casino, depositing directly from your account when you authenticate.
You will find the following options in the casino's deposit options:
- Visa
- MasterCard
- Payz
- Neteller
- Skrill
- MiFinity
- Bitcoin
- Litecoin
- Ethereum
- Ripple
- AstroPay Card
- Zimpler (Pay N Play)
- CashtoCode
- CartaSi
- Postepay
- Siru Mobile
- MuchBetter
- Interac
As a Curacao casino, you can also play at 5Gringos using a variety of cryptocurrencies.
Withdrawals can be made using the same payment options as deposits. As an instant casino, you can usually withdraw money directly into your account without any further waiting. However, the withdrawal time may depend on the payment method you choose, whether you have used a bonus, and whether you still need to verify your account. Account verification is usually required for larger withdrawals, but with a Pay N Play site like 5Gringos, online banking authentication is sufficient in many cases.
Withdrawals should normally be made using the same payment method as the deposit. For example, if you have transferred money to the casino using Skrill, you should also withdraw the money via Skrill.
It is up to the player to choose whether to use instant authentication or to register in the traditional way. Unlike many other casinos, you can log in to the casino using your online banking credentials even when you are not depositing money. Regardless of the authentication method you choose, you can use all the different payment methods to deposit.
5Gringos Games
The casino's game selection is divided into several different categories. The game board is quite clear, and in addition to the category options, you can browse games by producer or through a quick search function. The game board is dominated by stylish game icons that fit in perfectly with the theme of the site. The casino also has its own distinctive game category, Mexican Slots, where you will of course find all the Mexican-themed casino games!
Software
5Gringos does not have its own game production, like most other online casinos. Instead, games are rented from a number of different game providers. 5Gringos has strong affiliation agreements with a number of the industry's leading game providers, which we have seen in the past at popular EU casinos, for example. A few smaller gaming houses add their own twist to the casino's game selection.
Gaming providers:
- SlotVision
- Pragmatic Play
- Evolution Gaming
- Push Gaming
- Wazdan
- Big Time Gaming
- Mascot
- Red Tiger
- Thunderkick
- Endorphina
- Relax
- QuickSpin
- BF Games
- NetEnt
- Betsoft
- and many more!
Slots
The slots category is the largest of the various categories. A large proportion of the games on the popular tab are slots, but the wonderful world of slots as a whole can be explored via a separate slots category. In this section, you'll find up to hundreds of different options, designed to work on a wide variety of devices. You can also sort the slots by providers by selecting providers in the top right-hand corner.
Roulette
Roulette can be found at 5Gringos in the table games category. There are a few different roulette variants available, with more to come on the live casino side. The roulette selection is not the widest in the casino world, but there is a nice variety of game types, including both European and American roulette.
Blackjack
Blackjack can also be found within the table games category and it includes both single-deck and multi-hand options, as well as the extensive blackjack selection of the entire live casino, of course. As well as blackjack, you'll also find classic options such as Pontoon at 5Gringos Casino.
Jackpots
The category of jackpot games isn't the widest in the world, but there are some fun options on offer. Among the biggest progressive jackpot games on offer is Divine Fortune, one of NetEnt's most popular jackpot games.
Live Casino
Live casino has its own category at this casino too. You can always access the live casino from the top of the site or from the live casino category in the game lobby. The live casino offers an interesting mix of Evolution's super-popular live games and live games from a slightly less well-known provider, Vivo Gaming.
Better known to us, Evolution is one of the pioneers of the live casino industry and has continued to produce great and unique live games year after year. One example of Evolution's original games is Power Blackjack, which you can find here too, where you can even quadruple your bet in a standard double-down situation.
Other Games
To round off the game category options, there is also a category of Mexican-themed games. You'll find plenty of fun and popular slots among the Mexican games.
5Gringos Licence
5Gringos is backed by an experienced online casino industry expert, Rabidi N.V. The site is licensed by Curacao, and although it's not quite on the same level as a license such as the MGA, you can trust this casino. By the way, Rabidi NV is also responsible for such projects as 7Signs Casino, QuickWin Casino, Dolly Casino, and more.
The site is trusted by many well-known gaming providers, as well as the Swedish payment service provider Zimpler, which chooses its partners carefully. The casino is also protected by modern methods, including powerful SSL encryption throughout the site. All the different payment methods are also protected by efficient and modern methods to ensure maximum security.
5Gringos Mobile
For mobile gamers, 5Gringos Casino is perfect. Although the site isn't the simplest and most streamlined, it's still designed to work perfectly on mobile. Thanks to the high-quality mobile optimisation, the casino can be played on slightly slower and older mobile devices, both Android and iOS.
No separate installation is required to play at the casino, even on mobile. All you need to do is open 5Gringos in your phone's browser and you'll immediately have access to all the different areas of the site, as well as a very wide range of mobile-compatible games.
Overall Experience
5Gringos is a modern novelty online casino that combines the best of a traditional online casino and a Pay N Play casino in a great way. The player is always in control of payment and authentication methods, and all the different transfer methods are always available, regardless of whether you register with the casino in the traditional way or take advantage of the speed of online banking authentication.
The casino has surprised us positively. It's just the right amount of difference from other casinos, and Zimpler's great payment system works brilliantly. There's also a nice number of games on offer, and a well-functioning game board that makes it easy to find the right game. The most obvious shortcoming is the MGA license, but on the other hand, the casino offers cryptocurrency transfers, for example, as a trade-off.
