O’Reels Review
O’Reels is a touch of Irish charm combined with exciting quality entertainment, which for many people is the perfect combination. It launched on our screens in 2017 at a time when many casino sites were shutting their doors. So, they needed to introduce something that stood out from the rest, to entice the modern gamer. Simplistic themes seem to be the way to go and O’Reels uses the standard layout and combines it with exciting imagery.
Whilst a nice-looking site is great, the reason we play online casinos is for the games. At O’Reels you have an assortment of options available to you, including slots, jackpot games, casino and live dealer games. Most are the featured favourites you’ve come to know and love, including Starburst and Gonzo’s Quest. There are category tabs at the top of the screen which makes finding the game you want much easier. But if you know specifically what you are after, then head to the search bar and simply type it in. O’Reels even offer ‘free play’ slots, which is the perfect way to test drive a game before spending your own money.
As you would expect, O’Reels is available on most devices whether it’s mobile options or desktop. The display screen may differ slightly depending on what device you’re using, but all your games and promotions will remain the same.

Welcome Bonuses
O’Reels have a pretty straightforward welcome package which involves your first three deposits. When you make your first deposit you will receive 25 bonus spins on Starburst. Then on your second deposit you’ll receive 15 bonus spins on Starburst and finally another 15 bonus spins for Starburst on the third deposit. This makes a total of 55 bonus spins available to new players, but of course there are the usual terms and conditions to consider. Upon looking at the terms and conditions we couldn’t see a specific deposit amount required to trigger the bonus spins, but there was quite a high wagering requirement. Whether you bother with the welcome package is completely your decision, just make sure you take note of the conditions before making your decision.
Regular Promotions
Heading onto the promotions page on O’Reels you will see that they not only offer regular promotions, but there are special one-off bonuses for you to enjoy. These will have the specific dates they are available within the terms and conditions, so make sure you check that out if you see one you like. But we’re going to look at the regular offers a little more closely.
Twice Wicked – Every Monday if you’ve opted into this promotion then you will receive an email offering you a special bonus. This offer has been tailored to your gaming preferences and the best part is you can claim it twice. The promotion occurs between Monday and Thursday, and alike the welcome bonus there are terms and conditions which will be applied.
Weekly Surprise – Every Tuesday O’Reels will send you an email with a special bonus. This should hopefully give your week a boost, but it is only eligible for those who deposited in the previous 14 days. Again, the bonus can be claimed twice and there are terms and conditions applied.
Wednesday Wildfire – A number of lucky players will receive this hot bonus which is only available for one day. It is a personalised reward and if you’re lucky, then you’ll receive an email with all of the details.
Cashback Weekends – If you enjoy table games then this one is for you, because you could receive 15% cashback on deposit losses during the weekend. There is a minimum deposit of £25 and a maximum cashback of £500, plus there are specific codes you need to enter to confirm you want the cashback. With this promotion there doesn’t appear to be any wagering requirements, but it’s always good to look over the terms and conditions.
VIP Scheme
Lots of gambling sites have VIP Clubs to reward their loyal players and O’Reels offers a great one. Obviously the more you have played, the higher your VIP level and the more benefits you will receive. O’Reels will give you one VIP point for every £16 wagered in the casino, so that should give you an idea of how much is needed to progress through the levels. The five levels are bronze, silver, gold, platinum and diamond, with rewards ranging from personalised gifts and birthday presents, to a dedicated account manager.
Customer Support
We’re sure your experience with O’Reels will be enjoyable, but for those occasions when things go wrong you may need to contact someone. Representatives for O’Reels are available between 7am and 11pm through live chat or email. If you have an urgent issue we would always recommend using live chat, to hopefully get the matter resolved quickly.
Payment Methods
There are plenty of banking methods on O’Reels to suit all preferences, you just need to decide which one to choose. Most players opt for debit cards, but they’re not always the best. Other banking options include Paypal, Paysafe Card, EcoPayz, Trustly, Neteller, Skrill, Zimpler and Pay by phone bill.
Phone bill banking is normally completed through Boku and it involves adding any credit you gamble onto your mobile phone bill, to be paid off when your mobile bill is due. It has become one of the most popular payment options due to its simplicity and because it increases your financial security. This is because you are not required to give the casino your bank details, these are held by the mobile phone provider. It should be noted that Boku pay by mobile is for deposit only and not for withdrawals.
Another issue we saw within the terms and conditions of the promotions on O’Reels, was that many of them did not accept players who bank using Skrill. This would all depend on whether you gamble on a new site to take advantage of their promotions and if you are tied to Skrill as your preferred banking method.
We have to admit that when it came to the welcome bonus, we were a little underwhelmed. The fact that you have a high wagering requirement for not a massive amount of spins, is a little off putting. But we went a little giddy with excitement when we saw the promotions page. With a good mixture of regular offers combined with one off promotions, what’s not to love? It’s a difficult one to recommend, because most gamblers will try out a new site for the welcome bonus. If that’s all you’re after, then we would suggest looking over the offer before you go ahead. But if you are in it for the long haul, then O’Reels offers much more than bonuses. That huge library of games is surely enough to warrant a play.
