House of Pokies Casino Review
When we talk about new Casinos, we generally mean ones with three or four years under their belt. But in the case of House of Pokies, they are brand new. They launched in 2020 and though it’s still early days, we’ve certainly liked what we’ve seen so far.
One of the advantages of such a young Casino is that they’re better at making a product around the latest trends, right here and now. That goes some way to explaining why they boast such an excellent mobile product, available on whatever your device of choice is. After all, it’s on mobile that most customers want to play Casino on these days.
There’s no substitute for actually having a good look round a Casino yourself to see what exactly is on offer. But the alternative is of course that you let us do that for you!
We’re about to give you the lowdown on all the different types of casino games available to play, explain how so many software providers on board can only be a good thing, pinpoint some of our favourite pokies to be found here and tell you what you can play in their Live Casino.
But there’s lots more to look forward to. Such as the bonuses on offer, the several payment methods you can use and other perks.
Read on to find out why House of Pokies is about to make you feel…right at home!
Casino Bonuses and Promotions
One swallow doesn’t make a summer and neither does one good Casino bonus make a good Casino. But when it has a quite brilliant welcome bonus package and plenty more bonuses well beyond that, it’s certainly halfway there to being one of the good ones. Here’s what’s on offer.
Welcome Package
‘Double-your-money’ on your first deposit seemed to be pretty standard a few years back among Casinos but it’s not always the case now. Some will only go as far as giving you a 50% deposit bonus these days rather than the full 100%. And the amounts to be claimed aren’t exactly ‘game-changing’.
So, it’s as refreshing as a sip of Toohey’s on a hot day when you can get a first deposit bonus of 100%, up to $1000. In other words: deposit $1000 and claim an extra $1000.
And not wanting to lag behind the competition: if you can also get free spins as part of your welcome package elsewhere, then you can also get them here.
There are 10 free spins for you the very day you make a minimum deposit of $20, plus a further 20 free spins for each of the next five days.
So there and then is a welcome package right up there with the very best.
Weekday Bonus Just Keeps Giving
If the day of the week doesn’t start with an ‘S’ you’re eligible for a bonus of 30% up to $300 every single day. That’s right. Monday to Friday you can claim a 30% bonus up to that amount or to put it another way: depositing $1000 on any weekday will give you a bonus of up to $300 a day and you can claim it as many times as you wish during the week.
Something for the weekend?
If the day does start with an ‘S, there’s something up for grabs as well.
Start by claiming your 25% bonus up to $30 which come with 25 free spins and if that’s not quite enough, you can go in again with a 45% bonus up to $100 with 45 free spins given away, as well. You’ll need to deposit at least $50 to get that second one.
You can claim each of those offers up to 10 times throughout any given weekend.
High Flyer Club
We can’t all be living the high life of champagne, private jets, holidays in Monaco and rides in limousines to go out and buy milk.
But raising your deposit just a little can at least see you join House of Pokies’ High Flyer Club. Taking their names from three of the more glamorous destinations on the planet- Dubai, Las Vegas and Monaco – they’re three separate offers that reward you the more you deposit.
Check numbers 5-7 below to see what exactly you get for each.
COMPLETE BONUS LIST:
1. WELCOME BONUS OF 100% + 110 FREE SPINS for a $1,000 deposit.
2. MON-FRI BONUS of 30% on every $30+ deposit Monday to Friday
3. WEEKEND BONUS of 25% bonus up to $100 + 25 FREE SPINS for $30 deposit
4. WEEKEND BONUS of 45% bonus up to $100 + 45 FREE SPINS for $50 deposit

Casino Games
Most Casinos out there offer games from one or two software providers. House of Pokies currently have games from 16 different suppliers. Ok, not all of them are that well-known with Tom Horn and Booming (no offence) maybe not household names just yet. But the same can’t be said about the likes of Habanero, iSoftbet or Betsoft. This trio is very well-known brands within the industry, as are a few of the others from that list of 16.
One thing is for sure: such a large supply ensures there’s something for everyone and if you’re new to all this, you’ll quickly find which games you like the most and subsequently, which suppliers you like the most.
Among them, they offer lots of choices across online pokies, scratchies, table games and Live Casino.
Online Pokies
Pokies tend to be classed into different themes and like a school class with no absent pupils, they’re all here: animals, Irish, Egyptian, fruits, based on Films/TV, legends and fairytales and sports, to name but a few.
Among the better ones are Solomon The King, Chicken Party, Majestic Megaways, Larry the Leprechaun and Lucky Reels. But that’s just our selection; you’ll surely find your own very quickly.
One good feature of the website design is that you can sort the pokies by a software provider. You can also search for a game’s name by typing it into the Search button.
Table Games & Live Casino
What sort of Casino would this be if it didn’t offer Blackjack, Roulette, Video Poker or Baccarat? Not a great one.
So of course, those three are available, as is Three Card Poker, Casino High Low, Joker Poker and a couple of more obscure ones like SicBo and Jolly Poker.
You can also chance your arm over in the Live Casino where the holy trinity of table games- Blackjack, Baccarat or Roulette- can be played with Live Dealers in real-time, thanks to the action being streamed as it happens.
So those who prefer experience as close as possible to being inland casino will certainly be happy about that.
Mobile Casino
Years ago, a mobile product was almost an after-thought for many Casinos. These days some Casinos start with their mobile product before even turning their attention to the desktop version. We suspect that House of Pokies comes into the second category.
Whatever device you’re using- iOS or Android – and whatever device you’re using- tablet or Smartphone- you’ll always have a seamless experience where things happen quickly and without technical glitches.
Deposit & Withdrawal Options
House of Pokies allows you to deposit and withdraw using VISA, Mastercard, Neosurf and bank transfer.
Deposits are pretty much instant meaning you’re ready to play right away, but withdrawals are a tad more complicated.
That’s not unique to House of Pokies but something that applies to the whole online casino industry. What it means is that you’ll have to show different documents such as passport/driver’s license, a utility bill and maybe also a copy of the credit card you used to make a deposit. As we say, all this is perfectly normal and just a way of customers proving that they are who they say they are and keeping your money safe, as well as the Casino taking the necessary precautions at their end.
Normally, the money will be with you within five days from when you present these documents. Check the different payment options on-site for max and minimum limits and whether there are any additional charges.
Overall Experience
There’s a sort of ‘unofficial’ list of boxes to check when it comes to what makes a good Casino and we can safely say that House of Pokies checks the vast majority of them.
It has a site that’s easy to use, simple to find everything and just as good on mobile.
It has a vast selection of Casino games from a big list of providers meaning variety and quality is guaranteed across its assortment of pokies, table games and Live Casino offering.
The payment methods are more than enough for everyone to have sufficient choice when it comes to moving their money around and customers can also look forward to a Loyalty Program that rewards you the more you play. Bigger spenders can also look forward to the benefits of the VIP Club.
But it’s when it comes to bonuses that they’re threatening to make a name for themselves. The Welcome package is highly competitive and there are a load of bonuses active 24/7 meaning that you’ll always have additional cash to play with, just by taking them up on their numerous offers.
It’s early days yet but this is a Casino that can go places.
