IGT Casinos

IGT is a well known manufacturer of land-based casino games, the most famous of which are the Cleopatra slots. A while back, they bought the online casino software provider Wagerworks, along with Barcrest who are well known in the UK for their land-based slot machines. Consequently, they now licence their online casino games to a number of online casinos, most of which will be well known brands to many of you (see below).

IGT casinos do not require you to download any software. All the games run using Flash technology in a web browser which means they are fast to load and signing up and registering an account is fast and easy. They are all licenced regulated in the Channel Islands - Alderney to be precise - which is good news for players as Alderney has very strict codes of conduct. In addition, you'll see that most of the licences are granted to 'highstreet brands' and therefore it's unsurprising that IGT casinos get very few complaints levelled against them.

Bottom line is that as a player, you are in very safe hands at an IGT casino. It's fair to say that if you look beyond the slot games, the range of games is more limited than you'll find at many other online casinos and the bonuses awarded are not as large, but they are far less ambiguous too. For slots players however then you should be in your element with the IGT casinos listed below. You'll find most of the big name IGT slots at each: 'Cleopatra', 'Cleopatra II', 'Wolf Run', 'Treasures Of Troy' and 'Kitty Glitter' among some Barcrest slots like 'Rainbow Riches' and even 'Reel King' (which is exclusive to Sky Vegas as I write).

Below, I have written a brief overview of the best IGT casinos. I have played at them all down the years and can vouch for their safety, reputation and integrity personally. Because IGT-powered online casinos do not currently accept American players, residents of the USA should skip to the RTG casinos section unless they are looking to come away a little depressed. Hey, come on...prohibition worked so successfully in the 1920's didn't it? Ok, so...on to the overviews:

	Kerching Casino Now you might be saying "Ker-who?" at this point! In which case it may come as a surprise to learn that Kerching casino is actually owned and operated by...IGT! It's only right therefore that they have pride of place on this IGT casinos list, although being relatively dedicated to IGT that means they don't have quite the same range of games that some of the other IGT casinos like Virgin and Sky Vegas in particular have. Payouts are fast here though and the odd bonus finds it's way into your account from time to time (IGT casinos have never been the most generous on bonuses) and you're hardly likely to find yourself in dodgy hands when you are dealing with someone like IGT after all so as far as safety and reputation goes it's an A+. There are very few safer online casinos on any software platform and even by IGT licencee standards, Kerching stands out. Being IGT owned, who in turn own Barcrest, you'd expect to see the Barcrest slot machines turn up early doors here too but oddly, there don't seem to be many. Patience is a virtue I guess, but on the plus side and as you'd expect every single IGT slot that has ever been turned into an online slot is here! Goto Kerching Casino »
	Virgin Casino Virgin was the first IGT casino I played and I still play there at least once or twice every month. They have all the IGT slot games and have also licenced in some good slot games from other providers, most notably some Marvel slots from Cryptologic and more recently there's also been a gradual influx of slot games from Microgaming casinos including the fantastic Thunderstruck slot along with the popular Tombraider and Break Da Bank. Bonuses are few and far between unless you are a high roller, but they do have a V-Points loyalty scheme where you accrue points as you play which can be redeemed for cash, air miles or other Virgin products at any time. Cashouts are processed within 24 hours of the request and as with all IGT casinos listed here, there is no reverse pending period to hold up payments, one of thethings that really bugs me about Playtech casinos. A vey strong brand, very safe, fast paying and an excellent slots selection but light on bonuses. Goto Virgin Casino »
	Sky Vegas Casino Sky Vegas definitely has the biggest games choice of all the IGT casinos listed here as it has some exclusive agreements in place with 3rd party slot suplliers. This means that, in addition to all the IGT slots you can play here at Online Casinos Vegas, you will also find some exclusive slot games like "Book Of Ra" and "Reel King" that you won't find at any other online casinos (as I write). Sky Vegas is part of the Sky TV broadcasting group so it's reputation is explorary. Cashouts are processed within 12-24 hours and every now and again you get a loyalty bonus to play with. For choice, reputation and brand awareness Sky Vegas is a very good choice of IGT casino. Goto Sky Vegas Casino »
	Paddy Power Casino This list of the best IGT casinos wouldn't be complete without mentioning the excellent Paddy Power casino. Paddy Power actually have two online casinos - the one you want is the Instant Play version as the download version uses Boss Media software and doesn't have IGT games. Most sports fand will be very aware of Paddy Power and it's reputation so there really is no need for me to go into detail about how safe and reliable this place is...it's a given. Their cashouts are prompt and you get loyalty bonsues from time to time and although they have all the big-name IGT slots here, they don't have quite the same range of niche games as someone like Sky Vegas (see above), but in terms of reputation are arguably leading the way.

	Blue Square Casino Blue Square is best known to sports bettors and is operated by the global Rank Entertainment group. That pretty musch guarantees it's reputation as a safe, reliable online casino but it has one unique selling point over the other IGT casinos listed here: if you use the Neteller eWallet, cashouts are near-instant (sometimes instant, sometimes a few hours). Even cashing out to my UK bank account only takes 2 working nights to arrive from Blue Square. The trade-off for these super-fast cashouts is that they don't quite have the full range of IGT slots. Nearly...but not quite. But that said, all the biggues like Cleo 1 and 2, Wolf Run and the land-based names are all here. Plus they award loyalty bonsues a little more regularly than some of the other IGT casinos. Well worth a look. Goto Blue Square Casino »
