Celtic Casino calls itself ‘the most authentic live casino today’. While live dealer games are indeed its main focus, it also has a selection of some really good online casino games. It was launched in 2010 by Visionary iGaming S.A. and runs on the company’s live casino software, but also offers games from Sheriff Gaming. The casino is licensed in Costa Rica. The casino has a really nice design, with different shades of green giving it an Irish feel and all graphics being of top notch quality. The site is also available in six languages. 

The casino employs the 128-bit SSL Digital Encryption to protect all information and transactions performed at the casino. This technology is used worldwide by banks and financial institutions to provide the highest level of security. All data that is encrypted using this technology can only be decrypted by the casino’s restricted access server, which prevents any third parties from accessing it. Because of that players can feel safe to use their credit cards or to provide the casino with any personal information. 

Celtic Casino is first of all a live dealer casino. Using the Visionary iGaming’s live casino software it allows players to experience gameplay that is very similar to being in a real land-based casino. Players can enjoy playing roulette, blackjack and baccarat with live dealers using different settings and variations (e.g. American Roulette or Early Payout Blackjack). If you’re up for a more ‘classic’ online experience, this software also includes a number of slots, video pokers, card games and roulette. What is more, there’s also a selection of amazing 3D slots from Sheriff Gaming, which have some of the best 3D graphics on the market. This is an Instant Play casino and there is no need to download and install anything to play, as all games are available directly from your browser, just a few mouse clicks away. 

The casino has a rather unusual Welcome Bonus. Instead of a traditional match up bonus, players can receive a Cashback for 50% of losses from first deposit, up to €100. This bonus is available seven days after the first deposit was made. Before any winnings from this bonus can be withdrawn, a wagering requirement of 35x bonus amount must be met. Other promotions available at Celtic Casino include weekly bonuses, refer a friend system and live tournaments. 

The banking services at this site cover most of the popular payment methods. Deposits can be made using Visa and MasterCard, Neteller, Skrill, Eco, Clickandbuy, paysafecard and bank transfer, while withdrawals are possible with Visa, Neteller, Skrill, Eco and Clickandbuy. Aside of any deposit/withdrawal limits that may be imposed by the payment service provider, the maximum amount you can withdraw per transaction is €2,500. 

If you run into any problems while using Celtic Casino you can contact the 24/7 Customer Support. The support staff can be reached by phone or e-mail. Too bad a Live Chat application is not available, as it’s usually the most favored option among customers. The casino also has FAQ and Help sections that answer many questions and provide instructions on how to register, play or make payments.

Celtic Casino is definitely a place to go if you’re interesting in trying out live dealer games. Here, they are easily accessible and work really well. There are other online casino games too, but their selection is not as good as in standard online casinos. The starting Cashback bonus is also not that attractive. Aside of that, the casino looks and runs really good and is fun to play at.
