History
Surf Casino launched in 2017 under Dama N.V. The company also operates more than 2 dozen online casinos, including BitStarz, BetChan, Slotwolf Casino and Slotum.
Licensing, security and fair play
Dama N.V. Uses a Curaçao eGaming licence across its online casinos. It says Surf Casino displays an ‘Antillephone License Validation’ emblem, which can be clicked to view licensing under Dama N.V. And License No. 8048/JAZ. The review describes this authority as requiring games to pass a GLI test. It also notes that almost every casino software provider offered there holds an MGA and/or UKGC licence after meeting those authorities’ testing requirements. The source calls the SoftSwiss platform trustworthy, but that alone cannot establish that there is no danger of being conned.
Bonuses and promotions
The main menu labels its Promotions section ‘Get Our Treasures’. The review presents that wording as a fitting introduction to Surf Casino’s range of promotional offers.
Standard welcome bonus
Like many online casinos, Surf Casino starts new players with a welcome bonus. The source describes a staged offer across the first 4 deposits: €1000 + 200 free spins in total.
- 1st Deposit: Get 100% up to €300 + 50 Free Spins (30x Deposit Bonus Wagering). Minimum deposit - 20 USD, 20 EUR, 30 CAD, 30 AUD, 30NZD
- 2nd Deposit: Get 50% up to €200 + 50 Free Spins (20x Deposit Bonus Wagering). Minimum deposit - 20 USD, 20 EUR, 30 CAD, 30 AUD, 30NZD
- 3rd Deposit: Get 50% up to €200 + 50 Free Spins (20x Deposit Bonus Wagering). Minimum deposit - 40 USD, 40 EUR, 60 CAD, 60 AUD, 60NZD
- 4th Deposit: Get 100% up to €300 + 50 Free Spins (30x Deposit Bonus Wagering). Minimum deposit - 40 USD, 40 EUR, 60 CAD, 60 AUD, 60 NZD
The review explains that winnings from free spins and bets made while a bonus is active are credited to the bonus balance, and the wagering requirements apply. The bonus is restricted to video slots, with jackpot slots excluded. Some slots contribute 0% but still permit bonus bets; check the ‘Bonus Terms’ in the T&Cs to avoid games with a 0% contribution.
The source also sets a maximum bet of 5 EUR/5 USD/5 AUD/5 CAD/5 NZD/5 RUB while the bonus is active; any amount above that will not count toward wagering requirements. Each welcome bonus has a 30-day play-through period, according to the review.
Other bonuses

The review recorded these options at the time it was written: Amatic, Belatra , BGaming, BigTimeGaming, Blueprint, EGT, ELK, Endorphina, Evolution, Hacksaw, Merkur, NetEnt, Nolimit, Platipus, Play'n GO, Playtech, Pragmatic Play, Pragmatic Play Live, Push Gaming, Quickfire, Quickspin, RedRake, Relax Gaming, Thunderkick and Yggdrasil.
Slots
Video slot catalogues can look similar across casinos that share software providers. Surf Casino’s distinguishing feature in the review is its large progressive jackpot section, with 100s of jackpot titles.
- Microgaming: Examples include Mega Moolah, WowPot slots, Cash Splash, Treasure Nile and Major Millions. The review singles out Immortal Romance Mega Moolah as a title to note.
- Quickfire: The selection includes Tiki Reward, Santa Wild, Lara Croft and other games. Microgaming jackpot titles are grouped under the Quickfire filter.
- Playtech: Its catalogue features the Age of the Gods jackpot slots and Fire Blaze Jackpot titles, alongside favourites such as Jackpot Giant and Gladiator Road to Rome.
- NetEnt: Titles named in the review include Divine Fortune, Mercy of the Gods, Irish Pot Luck, Imperial Riches and Mega Joker, which described as the slot with the highest RTP in iGaming.
- More major providers: The review also lists jackpot titles from Belatra, EGT, ELK, Platipus, Play'n GO, Pragmatic Play, Quickspin, Relax Gaming and Yggdrasil.
Table games
Virtual table games may take some searching on Surf Casino, which the review suggests gives greater prominence to live play. To surface Evolution’s RNG titles, enter ‘First Person’ in search. The resulting 3D virtual-studio games include Craps, Blackjack, Roulette, Dragon Tiger, Dream Catcher, Mega Ball, Top Card and Baccarat.
Live casino
Surf Casino’s Live Casino brings together what described as the top 3 iGaming live dealer platforms: Pragmatic Play Live, Playtech and Evolution. It reports over 100 live dealer games, covering variations of blackjack, baccarat, roulette, poker, dragon tiger and sic-bo, alongside live craps. The review also lists 6 popular wheel-of-fortune shows: Dream Catcher, Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, Adventures Beyond Wonderland, Spin A Win and Mega Wheel.
Mobile play
The review says every game works on mobile, including live dealer titles. Access is through a mobile browser; no app download is offered in the source description. For quicker access, it suggests bookmarking the casino URL or adding the homepage shortcut to a device’s home screen.
Customer support
The review says Surf Casino uses SoftSwiss’s casino aggregator platform and is connected to a 24/7 support centre. The service was shortlisted for ‘Best Customer Service’ at the 2021 EGR B2B Awards 2021. Support options listed are ‘Live Chat’ and ‘Email’; the ‘FAQ’ and ‘Terms & Conditions’ sections are also described as clearly organised and useful to the reviewer.
Conclusion
Surf Casino may appeal to slot players interested in slot races and bonus offers, according to the review. It also reports over 100 progressive jackpot titles from Microgaming, NetEnt and Playtech. The virtual table-game selection is described as limited, which may disappoint players focused on those games. Live casino is a stronger feature in the assessment, with the big 3 live casino software developers contributing over 100 live dealer titles.
