The company behind bet365 Casino
bet365 began in 2000 as an online bookmaker in Stoke-on-Trent, England, founded by Denise Coates, and it remains privately owned with its head office there. Sports betting is still the group’s core business. Its US casino and sportsbook run through local subsidiaries trading as Hillside, which hold the platform licenses state by state.
The casino arrived in New Jersey in 2019, under the internet gaming license of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City, the former Trump Taj Mahal. Hard Rock also runs its own online brand on that license, so two separately owned casinos share one host. The New Jersey online guide lists every Atlantic City license and its brands.
bet365 Casino and racino licenses
None of the three states pairs bet365 with a racino in this guide’s records. New Jersey runs through Hard Rock Atlantic City, Michigan through the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, and West Virginia through a license from the West Virginia Lottery. The racetrack casinos of West Virginia, such as Hollywood Casino at Charles Town, host other national brands.
West Virginia was the last state to arrive, on August 27, 2026. The Lottery Commission licenses every online casino brand there, and a launch adds that state’s own offer terms and helpline to the page. The West Virginia online guide lists the racino pairings behind the other brands, and the offers box here shows bet365’s West Virginia terms.
| State | Host license | Regulator | Live since |
|---|---|---|---|
| New Jersey | Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City | Division of Gaming Enforcement | 2019 |
| Michigan | Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians | Gaming Control Board | April 2026 |
| West Virginia | Licensed by the West Virginia Lottery | West Virginia Lottery | August 27, 2026 |
The bet365 Casino bonus explained
In New Jersey the welcome bonus pairs a 100% deposit match up to $1,000 with up to 1,000 Spins, for a $10 minimum deposit. The operator’s New Jersey terms require the match to be wagered 15 times on listed slots within 30 days. Those spins are worth $0.10 each, arrive in batches over 20 days and carry no wagering.
New Jersey’s terms add a 10% stake cap per round while the match is active and run the promotion until December 29, 2026. Michigan and West Virginia run a different welcome offer: 50 Casino Spins on a game the player chooses. Any bonus balance left after the deadline is removed.
Games and live dealer tables
The bet365 Casino app listing names slots such as Cash Eruption, 88 Fortunes, Gonzo’s Quest and Divine Fortune, alongside blackjack, roulette and poker games including Ultimate Texas Hold’em. The group’s own Jackpot365, a multi-tier progressive built into casino games, reached West Virginia at launch, and the free-to-play Daily Prize Matcher sits beside the paid games.
Evolution added its live dealer games to the New Jersey site in February 2025, bringing Lightning Roulette, Crazy Time, Dream Catcher, craps, baccarat and several blackjack formats such as Infinite Blackjack. Earlier live tables there came from Playtech, which still supplies games, so the live and slot mix differs a little from state to state.
Payments, payouts and the bet365 Casino app
Deposits at bet365 Casino work with debit cards, Discover included, Apple Pay, PayPal, Venmo, online banking through Trustly and cash through PayNearMe, and players in Atlantic City can also pay in person at the Hard Rock cage. Withdrawals use the same routes: Apple Pay is instant, while debit card, Trustly, PayPal and Venmo payouts take one to four hours.
The standalone bet365 Casino app showed 4.3 stars from about 7,200 App Store ratings and 3.9 from 1,929 Google Play ratings when checked on October 21, 2026. Most players use the combined sportsbook and casino app instead, rated 4.8 from more than 350,000 App Store ratings. Both require location services and stop working once the device leaves the licensed state.
bet365 Casino review: promotions and protections
There is no points-based loyalty program in the US, although the group runs one in other markets. Extras come from in-house features such as Jackpot365 and the Daily Prize Matcher instead. Players moving from a resort-backed brand will notice that play here earns nothing redeemable at a land-based property, including at Presque Isle Downs itself.
Account tools include self-set limits, starting with a deposit cap that state rules require every operator to offer, plus account suspension and self-exclusion. The app listing describes customer support as available around the clock. A deposit cap chosen on day one keeps spending at a fixed ceiling from the start of the account.
Racing and the wider region
Horse racing is a separate product from the bet365 Casino account. Wagers on races go into pari-mutuel pools through the track or through licensed race betting apps, and the cards of tracks across the country appear in the horse racing schedule. The pari-mutuel guide explains how those pools work and how they differ from casino play.
