History
Surf Casino opened in 2017 under Dama N.V. The operator also runs more than 2 dozen online casinos, among them BitStarz, BetChan, Slotwolf Casino and Slotum.
Licensing, security and fair play
Dama N.V. Uses a Curaçao eGaming licence across its online casinos. Surf Casino is said to display an ‘Antillephone License Validation’ emblem that can be clicked to view the licence under Dama N.V. And License No. 8048/JAZ. The review says this authority requires games to pass a GLI test. It also notes that almost every casino software provider available there holds an MGA and/or UKGC licence after meeting those authorities’ testing requirements. The review describes the SoftSwiss platform as trustworthy, but this alone cannot guarantee that players will not be defrauded.
Bonuses and promotions
The main menu calls its Promotions section ‘Get Our Treasures’. The review considers this an apt introduction to Surf Casino’s collection of promotional offers.
Standard welcome bonus
Like many online casinos, Surf Casino offers new players a welcome bonus. The review describes a four-stage offer over the first 4 deposits, totalling €1000 + 200 free spins.
- 1st Deposit: Receive 100% up to €300 plus 50 free spins (30x wagering on the deposit bonus). Minimum deposit: 20 USD, 20 EUR, 30 CAD, 30 AUD, 30NZD
- 2nd Deposit: Receive 50% up to €200 plus 50 free spins (20x wagering on the deposit bonus). Minimum deposit: 20 USD, 20 EUR, 30 CAD, 30 AUD, 30NZD
- 3rd Deposit: Receive 50% up to €200 plus 50 free spins (20x wagering on the deposit bonus). Minimum deposit: 40 USD, 40 EUR, 60 CAD, 60 AUD, 60NZD
- 4th Deposit: Receive 100% up to €300 plus 50 free spins (30x wagering on the deposit bonus). Minimum deposit: 40 USD, 40 EUR, 60 CAD, 60 AUD, 60 NZD
According to the review, winnings from free spins and bets placed while a bonus is active go to the bonus balance and are subject to wagering requirements. The bonus is limited to video slots; jackpot slots are excluded. Some slots contribute 0% but still allow bonus bets. Check the ‘Bonus Terms’ in the T&Cs to avoid games with a 0% contribution.
The review also states that the maximum bet while a bonus is active is 5 EUR/5 USD/5 AUD/5 CAD/5 NZD/5 RUB. Bets above that amount will not count toward wagering requirements. Each welcome bonus has a 30-day play-through period.

Listed support channels are ‘Live Chat’ and ‘Email’. The reviewer also found the ‘FAQ’ and ‘Terms & Conditions’ sections well organized and useful.
Conclusion
The review suggests Surf Casino may suit slot fans who enjoy slot races and bonus offers. It also reports more than 100 progressive jackpot titles from Microgaming, NetEnt and Playtech. Players focused on virtual table games may find the selection limited. Live casino is rated more highly, with the big 3 live casino software developers supplying over 100 live dealer titles.
