Oxi Casino Review

A newcomer to the Australian gambling arena, Oxi Casino has a solid gaming repertoire with over 2000 games from 30+ vendors, a pack of regular bonuses, and an extra-large welcome deal on ten deposits. High rollers may choose to opt for a big high roller welcome bonus up to AU$3000. In many respects, the online casino measures up pretty well, barring a few downsides like low cashout limits. The online casino is a legitimate operator as it holds a Curacao licence, thus players do not need to be concerned about safety. Loyal players will appreciate an exciting Casino Shop where they can exchange their coins into free spins and valuable items.

Signup procedures in Oxi Casino

As in many other online casinos, the signup routine is simple and intuitive both on desktop and mobile. You will have to pass the following steps to create an active account:

1. Click the Sign Up button at the top right corner
2. On the first page that opens, you are asked to insert your existing email address, create a password, choose the currency from six options (AUD included), and pick your country from dropdown menu list (Australia included)
3. Tick the second box, showing your agreement with the terms and conditions, and consider ticking the first box if you want to receive email promotions—no promo codes are requested
4. Click or tap the Complete Registration button

After that, a Deposits page will open automatically and you may choose whether to do this right now or skip that step and deposit later. You might have noticed the online casino does not require advanced personal details like city and date of birth, but this does not mean the online casino neglects keeping your identity in record as other casinos do. The point is that you will have to submit your personal details before the first withdrawal. You can add the missing personal info at any time, clicking on the settings button at the top right corner. 

Customer Support in Oxi Casino

Desktop and mobile punters may reach support reps via a live chat which is always on view at the bottom. A player inserts their email address, picks the English department and clicks Start Chat. They also have a contact number for urgent queries and an email address for less urgent ones. We could not locate a FAQ section: it is absent or posted in some unobvious place.

Oxi Casino legalities & responsible gaming

The online casino is owned and operated by Altacore N.V. The site in question holds Curacao licence 8048/JAZ2019-049, which validity can be checked by clicking the logo of the Curacao Seal at the casino’s bottom. Therefore, Oxi Casino ticks the legal box. As for responsible gaming practices, they make provisions for setting a cooling-off period and terminating accounts for customers who require so. Affected bettors may contact their support team, asking them to block the account for good, if needed.  

Deposit options in Oxi Casino

Featuring a geo-sensitive platform, the casino will display deposit options based on your current whereabouts. For Australia, the following options are suggested:

• Mastercard, Visa
• AstroPay card
• MiFinity
• Crypto payments with Bitpace
• Direct crypto payments: Tether, Bitcoin, Litecoin, and so on

Clicking on any option will display its min/max limits and deposit fees (if any). Depending on the option used, the min deposit is AU$30 for credit cards and AU$100 for cryptocurrencies. While fiat money options come with certain maximum limits, crypto deposits are actually unlimited, thus they seem to be a stellar choice for high-rolling punters. 

Withdrawal options in Oxi Casino

Ways of getting the winnings withdrawn are quite limited here, but this is not the casino’s fault as most payment providers do not serve gambling transactions in Australia. Anyway, the available options are:

• Bank transfer
• Bitcoin
• Litecoin
• Ethereum
• Dogecoin
• Tron

The lowest withdrawal in Australia is AU$30 for bank transfer and AU$100 for the listed cryptos. Being a legal online casino site, Oxi abides by the mandatory KYC regulations imposed by the Curacao licence. As a consequence, it always identifies the eligibility of each player before transfering the first withdrawal. The verification takes place around 24 hours, and so does the processing of any withdrawal request (withdrawal times).

Limits are one of the negatives found in this casino in Australia. First, a transaction amount cannot be greater than AU$650—$750, with the same cap applied for a 24-hour timeframe. The monthly cap is 10,000 euros, according to the terms and conditions. Clause 9.3 of the t&c says that the online casino has the right to determine its own maximum withdrawal amount, which may differ depending on the account status. So high rollers may try contacting the Support team, asking them to get the limit cranked up. 

Oxi mobile casino

Playing on the go is comfortable and easy with Oxi as it offers a pretty good no-download mobile casino version featuring 2500+ games and the full-fledged collection of bonuses which are also posted on the desktop casino site. Most menu entries are accessible from within a hamburger button at the top left. Using horizontal scrolling for their navigation, the mobile homepage introduces its new games, jackpot slots, trendy games, and other titles in a well-arranged way. 

The homepage features a horizontal list of Themes that you can scroll to see the slots broken down by theme and feature like Wild West, Christmas, and (inexplicably) Buy Bonus. The mobile casino site has a Gaming Providers line with provider logos fit for tapping. Summarise, the mobile casino is pretty nice but nothing super special in fact.

General review of games in Oxi Casino

Today’s online casino bettors are really spoilt for choice, so a collection with two/three thousand games is already old hat. In many respects, what a normal player will see in the Oxi lobby is available in many other casinos in Australia: over 1800 pokies, 200+ online table games, and a packed live casino page. 

The listing of providers is rather long with the likes of Yggdrasil and Betsoft. A conventional dropdown is visible straight above the game icons for quick access to a selected provider and its games. There’s a minor issue with live games (to be reviewed later on) but generally, the library is big and diverse, featuring all the known game types: video pokies, table games (roulette, blackjack, baccarat, poker, craps, and so on).  

Overview of video pokies in Oxi Casino

Numbering over 1800 titles, the suite of online pokies caters to everyone. Oxi could not evade the frequent problem of few categories and filters for pokies, so a bettor will have to make do with just Popular, Hot and a few other basic categories. Slightly offsetting this inconvenience are thematic groups such as Space, Gods, Irish, and Pirates, enabling one to see the video slots of a specific thematic group. 

The number of active providers here is excellent, given legal restrictions in AU gambling. You may go through the games from Booongo, Platipus, Wazdan, Betsoft, Saucify, and plenty of other prominent and lesser-known studios. Putting a mouse cursor (or tapping on mobile) on any title will grey it out, showing two options, Play and Demo, but not every game has it, e.g. it is not available on jackpot slots.

It is clear there is no accounting for tastes yet the Popular tab contains 150 online pokies that are supposedly played most often. Speaking of bonus features and mechanics, the entire collection appears to be complete with an extremely eclectic set of online pokies based on the Megaways, Hold & Win, ways to win, Hold the Jackpot, Multichance, and many other pokie models, including classic three-reel ones. It makes no sense quoting the most popular game titles available there, as each has own.        

Progressive jackpots in Oxi Casino

It’s a given that the casino has progressive pokies as virtually no real casino site gets along without them. What one will see here is a Jackpot section. It would be reasonable to suggest it features only games with a progressive jackpot, but the real logic behind it remains a puzzle as it contains plenty of regular games without progressives. So if you want to find some cool progressive games, we have no idea what you should do. A piece of advice in this regard is to use a Search line in the online casino and insert some progressive titles to see if Oxi Casino has any.    

Online blackjack in Oxi Casino

The site is packed full of blackjack variations of different sorts and rule variations. Classic versions are Single Deck Blackjack (Betsoft), Blackjack Multihand (Play’n GO), and European Blackjack (Betsoft) with dealer’s no peak. Being classic in this kind of game means having basic dealer’s actions (hit/soft 17 rule) and player’s choices (BJ pays 21, one split only, doubling down on 9/10/11, and some other things that many experts consider classic and conventional). Yet there are many blackjack titles here which have a unique combination of rules, and are thus popular with some casino fans. Some of them are:

• Super 7 (Betsoft): the game has a side bet paying out 5000 times the stake 
• Blackjack with Gamble (Champion Studio)

It’s a bit discouraging that the table games page displays all blackjack titles, even those that are unavailable in Australia. The inability to load one or another game manifests in a few seconds after clicking on any geo-restricted game. 

Online roulette in Oxi Casino

The scope of online roulette games is fairly good. When entering the dedicated tab, a bettor will see about 10-15 roulette versions of the three types: European, French, and American. Among many lookalikes that differ only in graphics and bet sizes, there are a few unique games such as:

• Gold Roulette (Wazdan): European rules with an extra Gamble feature for a chance to double the last winning
• European Roulette – Announced Bets (Tom Horn Gaming): the roulette features a racetrack with preset call bets
• Vegas Roulette (Concept Gaming): game with three zero slots (0, 00, 000)

Some roulette options are suitable for low rollers, e.g. European Roulette by PariPlay with the 10-cent min bet. In a similar vein, some online roulette games are superb for high rollers, e.g. American Roulette High Stakes developed by PariPlay. 

Other table games in Oxi Casino

Fortunately, Betsoft and Wazdan work in Australia as their portfolios incorporate a good number of table games like Caribbean Beach Poker, Sic Bo Dragons, Craps, and Triple Edge Poker among many others. Baccarat games are also present – all of them are based on the classic punto banco rules. Generally speaking, the lobby seems to offer many table games of different genres, types, and betting limits.  

Video poker in Oxi Casino

Habanero pulls off the lead in the collection of video poker games, giving players a vast choice of popular titles including Bonus Deuces Wild, Jacks Or Better, Joker Poker, and Tens Or Better. All of Habanero’s titles provide five options at the beginning of each game: 1, 5, 10, 50 or 100 hands played at a time. An average return to player in this kind of casino games ranges between 97.5% and 99.5% at best. Other providers that supply their video poker titles to Oxi Casino are Betsoft and Champion Studio.

Live games in Oxi Casino

Facts to know:

• Clicking on any live game without the personal info having been fully filled out will open a popup window in which a bettor must insert the missing personal details
• Evolution, Pragmatic Play and other AU-unfriendly providers are not removed from the available games, with a player being able to see them. However, clicking any will return a Game Not Found message.

Aussies have access to just a few live game providers in Oxi Casino, still the collection is very good as compared to many other gambling sites in Australia. Clicking some game icons opens the lobby of a respective provider with many live game options to choose from. Below are listed the most popular studios that found their way to the Oxi Casino’s virtual lobby:

• LuckyStreak: Blackjack VIP, Fashion Roulette, Portomaso Casino Roulette, External Baccarat, and 15 more games are on display. Most tables do not support unlimited seats. 
• Oriental Game: a rarely found igaming studio that employs only Oriental presenters. The lobby will see you enjoy baccarat, dragon tiger, three-card poker, roulette, and money wheel. Mind that a player may view any table for only five rounds without betting, after which he will be redirected to the lobby  
• SA Gaming: a no-nonsense live studio focused on live baccarat offers 15+ tables with this game and en exciting Pok Deng live game trending with Asian players 

Welcome bonuses in Oxi Casino

The bonus system taken as a whole ranks below the average in terms of scope. It is lacking no-deposit bonuses, while the other types of bonuses are represented with just one or two instances. Yet newcomers are treated nicely with an awesome ten-levelled package, which makes it a perfect sign up bonus in comparison with other AU-targeted casino sites. The package you may get looks as follows:

• First deposit bonus: 100% match up to AU$300 + 100 free spins
• Second through ninth deposit bonuses: 50% match up to AU$300 or AU$500 + 50 free spins 
• Tenth deposit bonus: 100% up to AU$500 + 50 free spins

The minimum deposit needed to claim any of the ten listed bonuses is AU$30, with no deposit bonus codes required. The max bet while wagering is AU$8, according to the terms and conditions. Free spins on a BGaming pokie are given at 25 pcs every day. WRs are set at x45 for each component, which is above average compared to other casinos.   

High roller welcome bonus in Oxi Casino

Alternatively to the normal deposit bonus, whales may deposit AU$500 (or greater) and claim a 100% high roller bonus up to AU$3000 (no casino code is needed). A player will get additional 200 free spins on Book Of Cats that are split into four equal instalments. Sadly, high-rolling bettors are not treated differently in this respect, being offered the same x45 WR as in the regular welcome deal.

Regular bonuses and promotions in Oxi Casino

Only two recurrent bonuses were available at the time of this writing, and this lets us qualify the bonus program as quite poor. What non-newcomers get is: 

• Weekly cashback bonus: its percentage value is 10% to 20% (depends on the player’s deposit). The WR is x15, which is very good for this type of promotion
• 30% Friday reload up to AU$750 and 50 free spins on top of this deal. This promo gets unlocked only after depositing at least AU$30. Playthrough x45 applies (see other t&c in their bonus terms).  

No info is published whether the online casino is going to launch any other bonuses additionally to the listed ones. Besides, no tournaments and free chips for Aussies were available as of writing this casino review.

Loyalty program in Oxi Casino

The VIP system comprises five levels — Newbie, Rookie, Lucky, Pro, Champion — all based on notorious loyalty points. A player increases a level as expected, by betting real money and collecting points. Benefits and perks promoted on the VIP page do not seem to be impressive, save for perhaps a gradual increase of withdrawal limits from AU$22,500 to AU$45,000. 

By the way, there is a discrepancy between these values and the one specified in their terms and conditions (an AU$10,000 transaction limit per month) yet a customer care rep was not able to clarify this thing. Four advantages for VIP players are listed on that page: VIP Promotions, Withdrawal Limits, Financial Privileges, and Personal Manager with a 24/7 VIP Live Chat. 

Oxi Casino Shop

Normal comp points that are usually exchanged into cash in many other casinos are given an interesting twist in Oxi. But close scrutiny reveals the comp points are just wrapped in glossy paper, speaking figuratively. Yet the logic behind the Oxi comp points remains the same as anywhere. Betting real money, a player is awarded OXIcoins (comp points). You then visit the Shop and buy bonus money or redeem them to cash. 

Summary to Oxi Casino

Oxi is an average online casino in many respects: It features around 2000 games, has a good (yet a bit small) bonus program, and offers a quite normal loyalty program. It stands out for an immense AU$4000 welcome pack that encompasses ten deposits running in a row. Withdrawal procedures are performed quickly, within 24 hours, but the highest acceptable monthly total is low. The mobile casino is ok and so is the Support team that respond in a professional manner and pretty fast. Summarising everything found in Oxi Casino, this is a legit, reliable, and friendly gambling site — but it’s nothing much — that Aussies should check out for a comfortable experience with plenty of games.
