Introduction
The name itself implies that RajaBets Casino targets the Indian iGaming market, among others, and you’ll be happy to know it is quite a popular place for live dealer players, sports bettors and slot fans. The more you explore, the clearer it becomes that the site was envisioned with the Indian player in mind - from the rupee and crypto support with local banking options to the wealth of live casino software and mobile responsiveness, all speak to this fact.
Licensed by Curacao, the brand was established in 2021 and managed to build a solid player base with consistently positive feedback in just a couple of years. The aim is to offer a high-quality gaming experience for real money and help players gain maximum profit and satisfaction from betting and gambling online - top software, a variety of bonuses and promotions, timely payments and responsive support are good starting points.
Platform Overview
This is a very user-friendly and responsive platform that translates well to mobile, and it certainly seems like they’ve taken up the mobile-first approach with iOS and Android apps. Not a surprise, as gaming on the go is India's first and almost exclusive choice. Whichever you choose, the cross-device optimization is excellent and provides a streamlined experience in all aspects of the site.
Gaming sites tend to be cluttered, but this is not the case here, even though the pages are lively and filled with information on all features of the service. The interface is as it should be: the live chat bubble, support channels, payment options, all active bonuses and gaming options are readily apparent on the homepage.
While we’re exclusively interested in the live dealer offering, the versatile sports betting section deserves a mention. Cricket has a separate tab, so you can easily switch up when you need a change.
Live casino is MASSIVE - there’s hardly any chance you’ll be bored or faced with a lack of options here. Your daily adventures will comprise hundreds of live tables neatly placed in categories with filters to search by name, provider or popularity.
Players with all experience and skill levels will benefit from the knowledge base articles on the classic and modern live dealer games - navigate to the footer, click on the Blog, and find elaborate guides. Some are better than others, but there is something for everyone.
Live Dealer Experience
We said it already, but let’s repeat it - the live casino platform is huge and options are seemingly unlimited! It is not an exaggeration to say that this might be one of the largest selections for Indian players regarding both providers and games.
As many as 15 live dealer software studios power up over 580 live tables (at the time of writing this review):
Evolution
Ezugi
BetGames.tv
SuperSpade Games
Atmosfera
PopOK
Bombay Live
Better Live
SA Gaming
Pragmatic Play
Vivo Gaming
Vivo Aladdin
TVBet
El Casino
Lotto Instant Win
As you can see, most of these are established studios, leaders and innovators in the live dealer vertical, while others are promising up-and-coming studios or smaller-scale developers with unique games. Evolution, Playtech and Pragmatic Play are international companies directly responsible for the rise, transformation, and expansion of live casino games worldwide.
Ezugi’s Bet on Teen Patti and Ultimate Andar Bahar are common games found in most casinos across the Indian market and among the most popular live variants of these traditional card games. Going back to 2012, Ezugi is well-regarded and, in India, just as popular as the abovementioned veterans.
Bombay Live is a popular developer of dedicated live games focused on Asian markets, particularly India and Japan. Their mobile-friendly products have excellent streaming quality and include high-roller variants, Indian games, baccarat, roulette and Dragon Tiger.
SA Gaming is another Asia-focused developer. Though lesser-known, the studio is productive and versatile with a rich portfolio of all game types, unique dedicated tables with branded elements and custom design. Try out Pok Deng, Dragon Tiger and a range of baccarat variants.
Popular Games
We didn’t expect to see such a mish-mash of pretty much everything here. RajaBets players seem to appreciate a wide range of games without favoring any kind in particular, except maybe roulette. If you’re unsure what is currently hot or most profitable, this section is a sure-fire way to find out.
Evolution is among the top picks with their massively popular innovative titles XXXtreme Lightning Roulette (and Hindi Lightning Roulette), Crazy Pachinko, Red Door Roulette, followed by Live Indian Roulette, Live Video Poker, Auto Roulette, Dragon Tiger and, of course - their ultimate list of hit game shows: Funky Time, Sweet Bonanza CandyLand, Extra Chilli Epic Spins, Crazy Time, Crazy Coin Flip and more.
Baccarat and blackjack do not seem too popular here, but the top picks are supplied mainly by Atmosfera - Blackjack A, Evolution - Lightning Blackjack, Bombay Live - Speed Baccarat, Vivo Gaming - Galaxy Baccarat 1.
SuperSpade provides Speed Andar Bahar (VIP) and Teen Patti, while Evolution’s Super Andar Bahar tops the charts.
18+
SA Gaming and Vivo Gaming offer a range of age-restricted games with sexy dealers in various stages of undress. If you’re up to some relaxing and grown-up fun at baccarat, roulette and Dragon Tiger tables, this is the place to be.
Indian Games
Visit this section if you’re interested in Hindi-speaking dealers in traditional settings. While Bombay Live and SA Gaming first come to mind concerning market-focused tables, most variants are actually supplied by the master of market-focused production - Evolution. The studio is known for a range of Indian games for those wishing to enjoy local favorites in a familiar atmosphere.
Live Roulette
Roulette is arguably India's most popular casino game - it is easy to learn and play and relies mainly on luck. RajaBets has over 30 variants, including American, European and Indian Roulette, and dozens of tables by Evolution, Ezugi, Pragmatic Play, Atmosfera, PopOK, Better Live and Bombay Live.
To make things even more interesting, the operator provides innovations like Lightning Roulette, which was the Game of the Year at the EGR Operator Awards 2018 in London and is currently the most-played roulette game worldwide, as well as Speed Roulette, Instant Roulette, and Immersive Roulette.
Live Blackjack
Blackjack may be more challenging to play than roulette, but it is a game with a low house edge and allows the use of strategies for ultimate fun and challenge.
There are close to 200 tables here at the moment, but the first and most popular are Lightning and Infinite Blackjack by Evolution and Unlimited Blackjack by Ezugi.
High-rollers can use numerous VIP tables and Salon Prive with personalized, exclusive service and high limits.
Live Poker
Poker is your ultimate skill test and while there may not be many variants here, the best ones are certainly featured - Casino Hold’em, Caribbean Stud Poker, Extreme Texas Hold’em and more by Evolution, Ezugi, and PopOK Games.
Live Baccarat
It’s safe to say baccarat players will have dynamic and busy fun here with the wealth of options. Evolution, Ezugi and SA Gaming dominate this section, but most featured providers have at least one standard baccarat variant. For more variation, you can try Baccarat Squeeze, Lightning Baccarat for boosted odds with multipliers, Speed Baccarat for faster rounds, No Commission Baccarat, VIP tables for high rollers and many more.
Deposits and Withdrawals
The Indian Rupee is the only fiat currency available when writing this review, but you can also use crypto: USDT ERC 20 and USDT TRC 20.
As expected, the available payment options are all popular local methods, including UPI, IMPS, Net Banking, PhonePe, Paytm, AstroPay, GPay, WhatsApp Pay and Amazon Pay via UPI.
Keep in mind that not all deposit options will also be available for withdrawals, so it is best to check your user dashboard before deciding on the method.
UPI is a staple method in all Indian casinos - transferring funds directly from your bank account to your casino account in real time via a mobile app is streamlined, easy and low-cost, making UPI a favorite. Deposits are usually instant, while withdrawals may take slightly longer. Another important benefit is increased security due to bank encryption protocols.
IMPS is another convenient option for quickly transferring funds between bank accounts using apps, e-banking or SMS. It is also a real-time transfer option with highly secure transactions.
Net Banking allows payments to your bank’s e-banking platform - deposits are instant and protected with advanced encryption protocols. It is not as streamlined as UPI, but it is still simple and user-friendly with the added benefit of no or minimal cost.
PhonePe is an intermediary app-based payment platform that supports multiple methods like UPI, e-wallets and credit-debit cards. The user interface and functions further simplify payments, while also offering a range of benefits and features not found with any of the supported methods individually.
Paytm is a multifunctional payment solution offering a mobile wallet for storing and using money, UPI payments, banking through Paytm Payments Bank and other numerous shopping, payment and transaction services.
AstroPay provides virtual prepaid cards that can be loaded with money and used to make purchases and payments online. Most Indian casinos offer AstroPay due to its convenience, prepaid nature and quick processing times.
GPay is a digital payment platform developed by Google that provides mobile payments, p2p transfers and other kinds of online transactions. The integration with Google services allows more useful functions making it even more attractive.
Whatsapp Pay and Amazon Pay are less conventional methods, but users of the two platforms will benefit from the integration with the app and the Amazon platform for a comprehensive multifunctional service.
KYC/Verification
Players at RajaBet go through ID and age verification in stages and while completing the KYC is not necessary before the first withdrawal, all players must be verified before cashing out is allowed. When cumulative withdrawals reach 1,000,000 INR, players will undergo additional account verification before processing further withdrawals.
Personal information - name, address, email, phone number - is entered during registration, while the KYC may be carried out upon the first deposit.
Once a player requests the first withdrawal, they will be required to provide valid ID documents for name, age and address verification. These may include:
- Copy of passport or driver’s license
- Copy of a recent utility bill (no older than 3 months)
- Copy of a recent bank account statement (no older than 3 months)
The minimum and maximum deposit and withdrawal amounts depend on the payment method chosen - you can check the limits for all available methods in the Deposit and Withdraw tabs in your user dashboard in the upper right corner of the webpage.
The cashout times are not cited anywhere on the website at this time.
RajaBets states there are no limits in terms of cashouts, although the maximum withdrawal amount in any 24 hours is 250,000.00 INR or currency equivalent, according to the T&Cs, while the amount that can be withdrawn after your last deposit is 3,000,000.00 INR.
Finally, there is a mandatory straight deposit wagering requirement of 1x in order to process a withdrawal.
Responsible Gambling
RajaBets is committed to providing a safe gambling environment and supports responsible gambling with a deposit limit and self-exclusion tools.
Players can set deposit limits for determined periods and change, adjust or remove the limits once per day by contacting customer support. Limits can be set:
Daily (24 hours)
Weekly (7 days)
Monthly (30 days)
Players can also employ more radical measures, like self-exclusion if they feel like their gambling habits are getting out of control or their behavior is high-risk. Self-exclusion can be requested by contacting customer support and applying for the following:
• 1 week
• 2 weeks
• 1 month
• 3 months
• 6 months
During self-exclusion, a player will be restricted from accessing the casino site, depositing money, receiving promotional material or using any of the services. If a service continues to be available even after the management has fully implemented the self-exclusion period and notified the player, they should immediately contact support to resolve the issue.
Bonuses and Promotions
Open the Promotions tab and you’ll see numerous offers, but…most do not apply to the live casino games. Unfair as it sounds, it’s just how things are for the live dealer player at the moment - implementing bonuses and enforcing rules is much harder for live casino games due to low house edge, slower pace of play and higher minimum bets, leaving the offers more open to abuse.
The obligatory introductory bonus is there; however, all live games contribute 0% to the wagering contribution, which makes this offer useless to the live dealer player.
Wheel of Fortune
If you make a stated minimum deposit during the week, you can spin the Wheel of Fortune and win an iPhone 15, free spins on selected games, or most importantly - cash to play Super Andar Bahar Bonus, Dragon Tiger or Baccarat by Vivo Gaming and Vivo Aladdin Bonus or El Casino Roulette.
What’s great about this promo is the very low wagering (between 5 and 7x), so spinning this wheel can be worthwhile.
Find the Wheel of Fortune next to the notification bell and user dashboard in the upper right corner. Once won, the prizes are available for the next seven days, when they will automatically expire if left unclaimed.
Information and Support
The best and quickest way to get help is to use live chat - the bubble is at the bottom left side of the webpage and the agents are fast, knowledgeable and ready to address any issue.
You can also contact support via email or use the FAQ tab for answers to the most frequently asked questions.
