Unikrn Review

When signing up at Unikrn, you are immediately entitled to a 200% welcome bonus up to $300 and 300 Free Spins.

This generous package is enticing to casino and sportsbook players alike since you can choose on which product you'd like to use it.

• Casino: when used on the casino, its welcome offer has 45x wagering.
• Sportsbook: for sports or esports betting, you have to wager your bonus 3x (or 5x, depending on location)

The best part? You only have to deposit $10 to unlock your welcome bonus, and you can win the Free Spins (available on the Better Wilds game) with a single $5 deposit!

Other Unikrn Bonuses

Despite having a very casino-friendly welcome pack, Unikrn truly shines on its esports offers.

Here's a rundown of some of the best promotions available at the time of writing:

• Casino Golden Hour: this live casino happy hour rewards players with Golden Chips (the table game equivalent of Free Spins) for playing at selected tables during the promotion's runtime.
• Stake $10, Earn 50 Free Spins: sometimes, the simplest offers are the most rewarding. Unikrn credits depositing players with 50 weekly Free Spins simply for wagering $10 at the casino.
• Seasonal Sports and Esports Promotions: celebrate the best of the competitive world with special markets, the chance to double your winnings, and other dedicated offers.
• UMode Exclusive Offers: get the chance to double your first deposit and play with up to $60. You can also double your winnings daily when you bet on yourself.

There is also a loyalty program, which rewards you for every dollar you deposit and play on the website.

Unfortunately, all of these offers are highly location-dependent and you might not be able to find them at all in your country.

Just like Stake and FortuneJack, Unikrn's design team chose to follow a tried and true approach: less is more.

With this clean and minimalistic layout, you get everything you need when navigating on the website. What's more, you will be able to quickly load any games or browse bets on all devices.

We tend to favor casinos that stay away from visual clutter and heavy banners because they do load much faster. However, there is one big drawback to Unikrn's streamlined setup. Sometimes, it feels a bit lacking, missing a few key features that are now commonplace in most online casinos.

For instance, you can't search or filter by provider, nor can you set any favorites to easily find your top games.

These flaws are only present in the casino section. Navigation on the sportsbook page (especially the esports section) is smooth, and you won't miss any traditional betting features there.

Unikrn is a well-rounded gambling website where you can find slot machines, live casino games, plenty of sports and esports betting, and even a few innovative products.

• Slots
• Live Slot Machine
• Roulette
• Blackjack
• Baccarat
• Poker
• Live Casino
• Sports Betting
• Esports Betting
• MoneyMatch
• UMode

Unikrn Casino

Although Unikrn clearly has an esports focus (more on that below), it still has an online casino where you can play with Bitcoin, Ethereum, and several other cryptocurrencies.

There are only 350+ different games on offer from several different gambling studios. You might recognize a few names, such as Pragmatic Play, but you will not find titles from household brands such as NetEnt, Evolution Gaming, or Quickspin.

This might be a relatively poor game selection, but you can still discover a few unique games.

Playtech's Buffalo Blitz Live, an innovative live casino slot machine, is one of the highlights of this casino's portfolio alongside progressive jackpots such as the Age of the Gods series.

You will also find live versions of roulette, blackjack, baccarat, Sic Bo, and HiLo.

One aspect that might discourage blockchain casino enthusiasts from trying Unikrn casino is that it doesn't offer any provably fair games.

Esports and Sports Betting

An esports betting platform above all else, Unikrn does offer a broad selection of traditional sports, as well as some virtual betting options. 

You'll be hard-pressed to find a larger selection of esports markets on any other site:

• CS:GO
• League of Legends
• Dota 2
• Rainbow Six Siege
• Overwatch
• Call of Duty
• FIFA
• StarCraft II
• Madden
• Rocket League
• NBA 2K

Unlike other sports betting sites, Unikrn also allows you to bet on several outcomes that are specific to esports (such as "first shot" or "first blood"). 

If you're still new to the esports scene, or if you're just looking for some extra insight, you're encouraged to browse the useful Tips section for news, betting guides, game previews, and more.

• All in all, Unikrn is arguably the brand to choose for your Bitcoin esports betting, especially if you're an English speaker.

Innovative Esports Betting

Besides its wide-array of traditional esports gambling markets, Unikrn has developed a couple of truly original products: UMode and MoneyMatch.

• UMode: you're not limited to betting on the pros: you can bet on yourself while playing online multiplayer games such as CS:GO and League of Legends.
• MoneyMatch: pay an entry fee and play for a real-money prize pool with friends or strangers.

MoneyMatch's entry fee is not dissimilar to the concept of rake in online and land-based poker games.

If you trust in your gaming skills, this could be a cool, new way to make a profit or just add up to the thrill of an online game.

Unikrn is licensed by the Isle of Man, boasting a full license, which allows it to offer a wide range of betting options.

While the Isle of Man license is a strong indicator of this gambling platform's trust and reliability, it does cause some inconveniences for some players since it restricts many countries from accessing Unikrn's full range of products.

• For instance, while customers from the United States can register and use the website, they are not allowed to play at the online casino.

Players from several locations might also be unable to place a sports bet or participate in MoneyMatch games without circumventing the rules by using a VPN. We do not recommend it, however, since Unikrn does require its customers to go through a KYC process before withdrawing or playing with real money.

If anonymity is key for you, however, please note that the website is secured by 2048-bit encryption, guaranteeing that your personal data is safe.

Although Unikrn does not offer provably fair games, all of its titles are supplied by trusted providers, which are fully regulated and regularly tested by independent third parties.

An additional layer of reliability is that Unikrn has been backed by several well-known investors such as Mark Cuban and Ashton Kutcher.

In the past, Unikrn offered its own cryptocurrency: Unikoin Gold. However, due to the outcome of a lawsuit, the company was forced to discontinue it.

It's unlikely Unikoin Gold (or its sister, "play-for-fun" only UnikoinSilver) will ever be resurrected. However, the company is still invested in delivering a premium gambling experience using several different cryptocurrencies:

• Bitcoin
• Bitcoin Cash
• Binance
• Dash
• Dogecoin
• Ethereum
• Litecoin
• Monero
• Ripple
  Tron

Although Unikrn positions itself as a crypto-friendly website, and depositing and withdrawing with cryptocurrencies is encouraged, do note that all gambling is actually done in fiat currencies. All crypto transactions are processed via a third-party provider, BitPay, and will be instantly converted to fiat using BitPay's exchange rate.

It is, therefore, also possible to play with fiat currencies, in either Dollars or Euros, using one of several available payment methods, which vary by country:

• Credit card
• E-wallets
• Bank transfer

Although Unikrn itself doesn't charge any fees, your payment provider might. Furthermore, there is a minimum amount for all transactions:

• The minimum deposit for fiat currencies is $5 or €5.
• The minimum deposit for crypto (BitPay) is $10 or €10.
• The minimum withdrawal (all) is $10 or €10.

From our experience, all transactions at Unikrn have been safe and fast.

If you're looking to find any information, there is a thorough Help Centre available. There, you can easily find the answers to most general questions you might have about your Unikrn experience.

If you have a more specific question, you can contact the customer support team via email using the available contact form. There is no live chat available, but in our experience, the customer support provided by email was quick and helpful.

Unikrn is active on several social media platforms. You can reach out to them on Twitter, Twitch, Facebook, and Instagram.

Unfortunately, the only fully-supported language at Unirkn is English. They do offer some machine-translations of the website in other languages (such as Spanish and Portuguese), and part of the Help Center is available in German, however.

If you're not very comfortable with English, you might want to try another casino instead.
