The color scheme MegaPari have gone with is a dark gray background with light blue and red contrasts with white highlighting to cut through the darkness.
The homepage is set up to the Sportsbook, with the occasional casino offering seen in the spooling banners in the centre. It does come across as cluttered to me, and it really can be streamlined better if they just move things around.
You are also abruptly shown that they offer support and you can contact specific numbers should you wish to receive assistance.
Account Setup
You are able to create an account using various methods, but fundamentally the same information is requested from you in a different way.
You can choose from registering with your mobile number, using your email address or using your social links. I opted for using my email address and it still asked me for my mobile number.
You will receive a verification email which you will need to complete.
Once you have completed the registration and verification you are prompted to make a deposit. You will also notice a bright red notification button on the top right hand side which will prompt you to complete your personal information and activate your 2FA. It comes across as really pushy, especially if you haven’t even had the chance to take a look around yet.
Games
Since Megapari’s home page is mostly the Sportsbook with a few crypto casino highlights, we can confidently determine this is their main focus when it comes to betting.
Let me take you through the game floor to expand on the games on offer:
Live
This section is where you will find the Live Sports games and matches currently in play. It is the first category available showing its importance.
You can see Top Games, Live Games, Matches, Recommended, Upcoming events, 1st period, 2nd period and you can also search by matches or league names.
Your bet slip will be to the far right of the page and you can also review your previous bets.
Sports
Much like the Live section, you can choose which sport you would like to bet on here, but these are for future matches.
A few of the sport types you can find here are: Football, Basketball, Tennis, Cricket, Rugby, Ice Hockey and many more.
Megapari clearly shows you how many matches of each type are available to choose from with the most being Football, as per tradition.
Live Casino
This is where you will find the Live Dealer games. You can select which type of game you would like to play by selecting the filter on the left hand side of the casino. You can also search by one of the 18 providers available.
Casino
Here you will find different categories of casino related games, such as Slots, Live Casino and MegaGames. For this section I will be focussing on Slots since the other options have their own categories.
You can choose from the below categories of slots:
-
All: You can choose from all available games in this section
-
Popular: These are the most commonly played games at the moment
-
Sexy: This category holds the more risque games with matching graphics
-
Roulette: There are 76 different ways you can play Roulette
-
Crash & Aviator: All your crash wants and needs can be found here in different styles from space ships to cricket players
-
Casino & Minigames: Here you will find crypto games like Plinko, Mines, Keno, Teen Patti and more.
-
New: The latest releases from 101 different providers can be found here.
-
Bonus Wagering: In this section you will find the games that you are allowed to play when wagering through a bonus. This is very helpful when you are trying to achieve the playthrough goal.
-
Hot Games: These are the games which are hitting the most frequently according to Megapari.
-
Jackpot Game: You will find the progressive style games here with multiple paying out sections here.
-
MegaWins: This section holds the games that offer this in-game mechanic.
Megagames
This is a unique category set out by Megapari where the game has a higher coefficient according to them. You will see the “max coef” displayed on the game before heading into it. I played a few of them, and I must be honest, I didn’t see much of a difference but it has been mentioned that wagering on these games counts double towards your wagering on the welcome bonus so that is a plus.
Esports
You can watch matches being played live and bet on games like Dota 2, CS2, Crossfire and League of Legends. Much like the Sportsbook, your betslip is located on the right hand side, and you can change the settings to make it more user-friendly for yourself.
Virtual Sports
You can choose which virtual sport you would like to play on by game provider. There are games like horse racing, greyhound racing, tennis matches, football matches and motorbike racing.
More
This section holds games like Hunting and Fishing, Bingo, TV games, Scratch Cards and other games. Funny enough, under “Other games” you find the provably fair crypto games like HiLo, Dice, Mines and Plinko.
Promotions
There is no lack of promotional content available for you at Megapari. There are 18 different promotions available at the time of this review. All bonuses available are disabled for cryptocurrencies.
I am going to take you through the top 4 promotions available:

Each accumulator bet must contain 3 or more events. At least 3 of the events included in an accumulator must have odds of 1.40 or higher.
Promo Code Store
As you bet, you accumulate points which allows you to convert these points into other promotional codes, or free spins or free bets. For example, if you have earned 50 points in your betting adventure, you can spin the Lucky Wheel or you can get a single bet on any event with offs on 1.80 or higher.
Friday Casino Reload
If you make a minimum deposit of $6 on a Friday, you will receive 100% as a reload bonus. You will need to have been registered with Megapari for at least 7 days prior to receiving this bonus.The playthrough requirement on this bonus is 30 times the bonus amount received and it needs to be wagered within 48 hours of receiving the bonus or else it falls away.
VIP Program
Megapari has a 8 level VIP program which allows you a higher cash back percentage as you move up the levels, the rate will also increase as you get to the next level which means achieving the following level will become exponentially easier and quicker allowing you to ultimately reach the VIP status.
*The major difference between the cash back percentages is that on the first 7 levels your cash back is calculated on your losses. For the VIP Status level exclusively, your cash back is based on bets made which allows you to receive quite high rewards once you get to that level.
Coins and Payments
Megapari offers 50 different depositing methods. These are Bank Cards, E-Wallets, E-Vouchers and Cryptocurrencies.
There are 25 different cryptocurrencies available to use, the more popular are: BTC, USDT (ERC20, TRC20, BEP20, SOL, AVAX C-Chain), LTC, ETH, DOGE.
The minimum deposit using these methods is $3, with BTC being the only outlier with a minimum of $30.
If you are using Fiat depositing methods, your minimum deposit amount will be $2.
When it comes to withdrawing from Megapari, your options dwindle. There are only 25 options to choose from, 9 of which are cryptocurrencies like BTC, DOGE, LTC, ETH and USDT (TRC20, BEP20 and AVAX C-Chain).
For cryptocurrency withdrawals, your minimum amount there is $2 for all except BTC which is a minimum of $4.
Customer Support
Megapari offers 24/7 support using Live Chat or email. There are certain delays with the Live Chat system but you are given a timeline before you continue the chat so you are aware of how long it will take to get a response.
It seems there are different chat teams available since you have the option to select categories relating to your withdrawal, for example, if you are asking about withdrawals, you would select the withdrawal option.
I opted for a general question to see how it responded, and it was pretty easy from there. There is also a support bot available on Telegram if you wish to explore that avenue.
Geos & Languages
The casino and Live Chat is available in 70 different languages including English, Spanish, Italian, French and Greek.
Even though Megapari holds a Costa Rican license, there are still strict jurisdictional bans on certain countries such as the USA, UK, Cyprus and the Netherlands.
There are no specific rules against using a VPN and when I tried to use one to register, there were no flags or triggers set up. The only situation you might find yourself in is when Megapari request KYC which is at their discretion.
Site Response Time
There were a few delays on initial loading of the casino, and when moving between the pages there were a few hiccups with images not loading as quickly as I would imagine them to. I ran the casino through our trusted website monitor and it agreed with me giving it the lowest response time score available. The main complaints are the initial data being sent by the server as well as the images being too large.
Platform Compatibility
Megapari have created an app for both Android and Apple mobile phones. To download the gambling app, you will simply need to head to the web address and you will receive the prompt to download the apk.
If you are not comfortable downloading the apk, you can continue to play on the mobile web version, just swipe away the prompt to download.
As expected, the app is as cluttered as the webpage and the images also take quite some time to load up. One thing I found really strange about the app is it doesn’t go into landscape mode when you tilt it. You can open a game and the game will go into landscape mode, but the app doesn’t change from portrait at all.
Another strange thing is when you open a game in the app, it takes you out of the casino to a separate browser where the game loads.
Security and Community reputation
The security levels at Megapari are quite high. You need to verify your email address before you are able to successfully sign in to the casino. Once you are signed in you are prompted to activate the 2FA functionalities in the casino. On registration there was a form of Captcha I have never seen before, I had to take a screenshot and show you.
The community is very happy with Megapari and there are many high ratings available across the board. TrustPilot’s rating is sitting at 4.3 out of 5 and it is a verified company on that platform. There is very little information available on Bitcointalk though, only 2 promotional posts.
Verdict
From the moment you are registered Megapari comes across as over eager and a bit aggressive. They have the wide variety of crypto games we want, but the layout and set up is just so much to look at for extended lengths of time. When it comes to crypto gambling, Megapari is good with their large variety of coins available for depositing and withdrawing. Their support channels are easy to navigate and assistance comes relatively easily. They also have a really fun VIP club which I was eager to join. This is one of those casinos I would suggest you dip your toe in before heading in head first. Remember to gamble responsibly, and have fun!
