Bet365 Online Casino NJ Review: $1k Welcome Bonus Code
@loumonaco
bet365 is one of the biggest names in the gambling industry. With plenty of experience and expertise, this online casino and betting platform is sure to be loved by Americans, too!
Hailing from the United Kingdom, bet365 has brought their product state-side. With a license from the State of New Jersey to operate, bet365, per state law had to have a land-based partnership in order to open their virtual doors. That’s where Hard Rock Atlantic City comes in as they partnered up with bet365 to make this entire operation possible.
Promotions and Bonuses
At the time of writing, the only promotion running on bet365’s online casino is their welcome offers. After depositing a minimum of $10, players will receive a 100 percent match up to $1,000. These bonus funds can be acquired after wagering 15x the bonus amount that you will have earned. This is called a playthrough. By definition, this means that is you deposit $100, you must wager $1,500 on the site in order to get the $100 bonus.
Registration
Taking less than a couple of minutes, the registration process is streamlined and straightforward on bet365. Below is the information needed to register for an account. After this, you’re all set and good to go. This information is vital as it will help identify you, which is almost important for your account security, too.
- Your name

- Last four of your social security number
- Phone number
- Address including city and state
- Username
- Password

Deposits and Withdrawals
During our reviewing process, we found that bet365 Casino offers plenty of ways to manage their funds. Deposit options included a bet365 branded MasterCard, PayNearMe and e-wallets like PayPal and Skrill. The minimum ranged from $10 as low to $1, depending on your method of choice.
As for withdrawals, we were able to use similar methods, including the bet365 MasterCard, online banking and e-wallets. We received our winnings in a timely manner, usually not taking more than 5 days.
Casino User Experience
We could not have had a more pleasurable experience on bet365’s desktop platform. The site is so simple with minimal graphics, but it, for some reason, just works very well here. This type of site will also be appealing to new players as all of the bells and whistles will likely cause some people to be too anxious to play.
The site really focuses heavily on the game offerings, with them appearing instantly. You can find filter options for the different games toward the middle of the home page. Here, once you click the desired type, the games will filter to match that query and the graphics will appear.
Other than that, be sure to utilize the “Services” button has you will find links to the FAQ, Responsible Gaming and Banking sections. No lag or buffering times and just an overall wonderful experience.
Casino Mobile Usability
Currently bet365 only offers their product on Android devices, but iOS is coming soon. To download the Android app, simply visit the site from your device, and at the top of the page click on “Get The App” and hit the direct download link here. You will not find this app on the Google Play store.
Thankfully the app and desktop are similar to one another, other than some necessary formatting, so you will not need to anticipate another learning curve if you choose to explore the Android platform.
Software
After scouring the site and even the terms of service page, unfortunately, we were unable to find what software developers are assisting with bet365 and who assists with the software operation. We will update this when this information is more clear.
Game Options
- Roulette: French, American, European and Master iterations
- Blackjack tables
- 50+ Bonus Slots
- Nearly 130 Video Slots
- One Jackpot Slot: Divine Fortune
All of these games are polished and run quite smoothly. The graphics associated with the games do not slow down the actual functionality of the games whatsoever. These are Grade-A games to play.
VIP Programs
bet365 does not currently offer a VIP Program. It’s unclear whether one will be coming in the future either. However, a VIP Program would be a nice addition to the bet365 infrastructure.
Support and Security
To obtain a license to operate an online casino, one of the absolute highest standards that must be upheld is customer security. Being a live and operating entity, bet365’s online casino has passed this regimen. This, coupled with their partnership with Hard Rock should put your mind at ease when thinking about potentially registering for an account at bet365.
To contact bet365 outside of their normal FAQ section, if you click on Services, then Help, you will find a link to their contact page. Here, you can access their 24/7 live chat, phone and email support, as well as a formal mailing address for them if you so desire.
Responsible Gambling
Outside of offering advice on what organizations and hotlines to reach, bet365 also has built-in preventative measures on their site you can utilize. These include deposit limits, session limits, spending limits, a timeout and even a self-exclusion period. All of these different, in-house methods have specific sections dedicated to them as well. This section of the site is incredibly in-depth, which gives us the notion that they take this kind of content seriously.
