Account set up
Gamdom is an interesting casino. When you initially open up the casino website, you are welcomed with the traditional promotional sliders, and then a community chat window on the left hand side of the screen. You have a count of how many other players are online, and a bright attention grabbing “King of the Hill $200K” button.The casino logo is the top of a castle tower which is a play with the name of the casino, Gamdom, Kingdom. It has a highlighted CS:GO betting section, which means that you bet on players playing the game Counter Strike: Global Offensive which is a first person shooter game.
The account setup is really easy. You need to select a username, password and then email address. You will need to agree to the terms and conditions and verify that you are above 18 years. You can opt in for their marketing, which is great as it is not forced on to you. It did ask for me to verify my email address, however the verification email never arrived. It did not stop the gaming from continuing though. You are able to minimize the chat on the left hand side of the window.

Promotions
Gamdom has a 15% Instant Rakeback for the first 7 days which does not have a wagering requirement. Other than that, they have leaderboards, which is the “King of the Hill” promotion I mentioned earlier, which is a wagering based point system that earns you cash prizes.
Games
They have a very generous offering of all types of games, ranging from basic slots, live dealers to even eSports games such as CS:GO which I mentioned earlier and they even have a politics section, which I did not venture into. Once you have registered your account, you are able to select which country you are from and this changes the games available to you based on country restrictions placed by gaming providers. The country restricted games are greyed out and when you click on them you will be given a message stating “Sorry but this game is restricted for your country!”
Coins and payments
As I mentioned earlier, this casino accepts cryptos, BTC, ETH, LTC and USDT, direct deposit using Neosurf, PayDo wallet and Skinpay and then gift cards from MasterCard, Visa, PayPal, Paysafe, Google Play and Trustly. The standard wagering on deposits is 200%, meaning whatever you deposit you need to playthrough twice before being able to request a withdrawal.
You are only able to withdraw using cryptos. The withdrawals take about 5 - 30 minutes to be reviewed and then paid out to the address you have provided the casino. Remember, you will need to provide KYC and complete the verification process when looking to withdraw.
You can select the currency you can bet on which is an interesting feature, it will also convert the amount you have deposited into the respective currency.
Customer Support
They offer live chat and email support. You are allocated a unique User ID on registration which you will need to provide when contacting support, but it is automatically completed on the form when you contact Live Support once logged in.
Geos and Languages
They offer 14 different language options in the casino and the community live chat option. The only restricted country in this casino is the USA. We do suggest if that is your region, use a VPN to play with and enjoy the games accordingly.
Security and Community reputation
You are able to activate the 2FA (two-factor authentication) with this casino, however, they outright state that the security of your casino account is your responsibility. Always use a complicated multifaceted password when registering at casinos.
Looking at the community ratings, Gamdom's Trustpilot review has an overall rating of 2.9, with 69% of the ratings being 5 stars (at the time of this article). Bitcointalk's Gamdom feed has very mixed reviews with the most recent being a glowing review, meaning it hits the mark more often than not.
Alternatives
It is a tough act to follow with Gamdom’s vast array of games and withdrawing being so quick and easy, once verification has been completed, but as with all good things, we have a few alternatives for you to try.
-
Stake.com - this is one of the world’s biggest and most popular casinos at the moment with a well rounded offering from casino to sportsbook and all good things in between.
-
Cloudbet is another big hitter on the scene at the moment when it comes to casino gaming only. They do a worldwide known sportsbook and have a great variety of casino games.
Conclusion
Gamdom is a great casino if you are looking for a fun community feel to gambling. With their wide variety, you won’t find yourself at a loss for which games to play, just which to play first. They are not entirely transparent with their terms and conditions, so be sure to get in touch with their support team if you have any questions related to these specific concerns.
