Virgin Casino is part of Sir Richard Brandons Virgin Group which means you can instantly know that it is well backed. The casino uses software from Wagerworks which is a subsidiary of gaming giant IGT. This means they have access to IGT's wide library of games.
The casino was launched in 2004 and has been growing in popularity ever since. The game range has also been increasing with new games added every month. You do not need to download anything to play you simply open up the games in your web browser.
When you open an account at Virgin Casino you can claim a 100% bonus of up to $100 (also available in Pounds and Euros). This is a pretty standard welcome bonus but Virgin Casino offers something that no other casinos do - V-Points. Every bet you make earns V-Points which can be used at any other Virgin Group company and exchanged for things such as free flights on Virgin Airlines as well as a lot of other items.
Virgin Casino does not have as many games as some other casinos but they do cover most of the casino games well. Of course we are really only interested in the slots and on this from Virgin Casino delivers in a big way.
IGT classics such as 5 Times Pay, Double Diamonds, Cleopatra and Wheel of Fortune are all available at the casino. They also have two Mega Jackpot games which have jackpots that start at £1,500,000. Other popular slots include Jeopardy, Wolf Run, Press Your Luck and Triple Fortune Dragon.
It has to be mentioned that if you hit the top prize on the Mega Jackpot games you will be paid in installments for 20 years. This is the same as if you won the jackpot at a land based casino in the USA but is different from every other online progressive. The good news is that IGT, Wagerworks and the Virgin Group are all big companies so you will definitely get your winnings even if it takes 20 years to get the entire jackpot.
The only real negative we found with Virgin Casino was the fairly large list of blocked countries. They do not accept players from the USA, Australia, Canada or Germany so that means a lot of fans of IGT's game will not be able to play.
