Irish Wins sister sites

Irish Wins sister sites compared

Written by Benjamin Rose – Head Writer

If magic, wizards and witches are your bag, Wizard Slots could be the casino for you. It would be a sharp change of theme if you went to it straight from Irish Wins, but then again, it’s not often that any two of the Irish Wins sister sites are alike in theme. In truth, the style of Wizard Slots is a little dated. The casino went live in 2016 but hasn’t had any visual upgrades in the years since then, so it’s behind the times when it comes to web design. In the eyes of most players, we suspect the fact that it has more than one thousand casino games to offer is more important. If you scroll down the Wizard Slots homepage, you’ll eventually see that the casino showcases a few games beyond the standard set of 24 that you’ll find on the homepages of nearly all of the Irish Wins sister sites.

We know we only said a moment ago that there aren’t many Irish Wins sister sites that use similar or the same themes, but there are exceptions to every rule. BJs Arcade is one of them. BJs Arcade has a near-twin on the Jumpman Gaming platform, and the twin is BJs Games. It’s odd that two casinos so similar should appear on the same casino network, but that’s not where the weirdness ends. The BJs iGaming sites represent the official online presence(s) of BJs Bingo, which is a small chain of bingo venues that runs through several British towns and cities. What’s odd about the arrangement is that the main site in the family, which is also called BJs Bingo, belongs to a totally different casino network. We don’t know how or why the sites ended up being separated, but we feel that of the two on the Jumpman Gaming platform, BJs Games is the best.

At the risk of making a mockery of what we said about there not being many repeated themes among the Irish Wins sister sites, there are actually several that use the Irish theme. Irish Wins is, very obviously, one such casino. It’s also one of the best-known of them. If you were to ask us which was the best-looking, though, we’d say Rainbow Spins – and we know a lot of players would say it’s the overall best Irish-themed casino that Jumpman Gaming has to offer. Part of that is down to the Rainbow Spins welcome offer. It’s one of the best-structured promotions anywhere on this casino network, with a fine blend of guaranteed rewards like matched deposit funds and free spins rather than the random rewards you’ll get at a lot of Irish Wins sister sites. The free spins can only be claimed on 9 Pots of Gold, but at least it’s a match for the theme.

We’re all for a casino with a fun space theme, but we can’t help but wonder whether the person who designed Jupiter Slots performed even the most rudimentary research into the planet before going ahead with their design. In the depiction of Jupiter that appears on the homepage of Jupiter Slots, it’s a rocky planet with a red sky, in which there are alien visitors. We have no direct evidence that Jupiter has ever been visited by aliens, but even if they did, they would never be able to land on its surface. Jupiter is made of layers of gas all the way down to its core. Similarly, the casino’s claim to be the best slots site in the universe is some way off the mark, too. It’s a pretty site to look at despite the issues with the theme, but it doesn’t have an original welcome promotion like Rainbow Spins does, nor any games you won’t find at other Irish Wins sister sites.

All that’s required to establish an Atlantis theme is a hint of water, so we commend Jumpman Gaming for going well beyond that with its design for Atlantis Wins. The background vista is genuinely stunning. Someone’s put a lot of time into that. What they’ve put less time into is finding other ways to make Atlantis Wins stand out from the other Irish Wins sister sites. There are, for example, dozens of slots out there that use Atlantis as a theme. There’s no reason why the free spins welcome promotion at Atlantis Wins couldn’t be attached to one of those slots. Instead, it’s attached to Starburst. Atlantis Wins comes up a little short in the games department, too, with only around 350 games available rather than the 1000+ you’ll find at the best Jumpman Gaming casinos. In summary, the graphics are great, but there’s a lack of meaningful substance behind them.

Just as all that’s needed to establish an Atlantis theme is a hint of water, all that’s required to establish a jungle theme is a hint of foliage. Jungle Reels manages to provide us with that, but only just. There’s a vine and a leaf here and there, but apart from that, the plain green background of the casino is doing a lot of heavy lifting when it comes to the theme. This is another of the smaller Irish Wins sister sites, offering only around 350 games for players to play with. It’s also another member of the Jumpman Gaming family that’s lazy with its welcome promotion. Jumpman has access to the greatest works of dozens of providers, so it could stack Jungle Reels with jungle-themed games if it wanted to, and it could also attach a jungle-themed slots game to its welcome promotion. Instead, the game selected for the top prize in the welcome promotion is, yet again, Starburst.

Immortal Wins is a perfect example of how it’s possible to get a theme bang on if you’re prepared to put some effort into it – but you’ll have to be something of a slots aficionado to identify the theme. If you’ve already started thinking about vampires, you’re on the right track. This is a whole casino site that takes its inspiration from the legendary Microgaming slot Immortal Romance, which came out in 2011 and was one of the first character-driven slots in the history of the format. New players at the casino can claim twenty free spins on the slot without needing to make any deposit. Aside from borrowing its logo and all of its key colours from Immortal Romance, Immortal Wins also has an “Immortal Archive” of slots and games that use similar themes. Vlad’s Castle is one of them and is probably the moodiest game that Eyecon has ever made. Wolf Hunter is another, as is Curse of the Werewolf Megaways.

Irish Wins Information

Irish Wins operator – Jumpman Gaming Limited

Irish Wins launched in 2019, which was an exceptionally busy year for Jumpman Gaming Limited. Aside from being the year that the casino operator started developing and releasing its own live casino games, Jumpman launched over twenty casino sites in 2019. That many new releases in a single year would be unthinkable for any other casino operator, but Jumpman isn’t like any of the others. It has a white-label-driven business model and has more turnkey casino customers than any other operator serving the UK market. OK Bingo, Millionaire Games and Daily Record Bingo are all examples of high-profile Jumpman Gaming Limited white-label casinos, and we could name more. The fact that Jumpman Gaming has made it to the point where it has over 200 active sites is almost entirely down to the success of its white-label platform. Only around twenty of the casinos on the network are directly operated by Jumpman Gaming without the involvement of any other party.

Home for Jumpman Gaming is the Channel Island of Guernsey. That means the company is technically British, although Guernsey isn’t part of the United Kingdom. It’s a surprisingly small operation in terms of workforce, having only around thirty people under direct employment. Somehow, those people stay on top of not only all of the Irish Wins sister sites but a base of customers that stretches beyond one million when all of the casinos are taken into account. Counting up every win at every casino, Jumpman Gaming pays out more than four million pounds of prize money every day.

Irish Wins review

Irish Wins Welcome Bonuses

If you read everything we said about the Irish Wins sister sites featured further up this page, you’ll know that it disappoints us when a casino doesn’t make maximum use of its welcome promotion. We’re sad to report that Irish Wins is guilty of the same crime. There are a hundred Irish-themed slots that Irish Wins could have attached its “Mega Reel” free spins promotion to, but instead, the top prize is – you guessed it – five hundred free spins on Starburst. Even if you don’t land on that and get a smaller free spins reward, the spins will be played on Fluffy Favourites. Would it have killed someone to attach them to Rainbow Riches instead? In any event, older terms attached x65 wagering to all free-spin winnings, which is above the current UK cap.

Other Promotions

The same Mega Reel that determines which prize new players get when they join Irish Wins also determines their ongoing rewards. To get another spin of the Mega Reel, players need to find five Irish Wins trophies. The trophies are hidden all over the site, but there’s information on where to find them within your player account. Locating another five trophies gets you yet another spin and so on and so forth. For every five trophies, the number of free spins available on the Irish Wins Mega Reel increases. The ultimate goal is to reach two hundred trophies, for which players receive an Amazon voucher. You’ll find other bonuses on the “promotions” page of Irish Wins, but they’re changed and replaced so often that it would be pointless to list them here.

Top Games at Irish Wins

We’re going to assume that if you’re interested in playing at Irish Wins, you’re also interested in the Irish theme of slots and games. The selection of games you’ll find on the Irish Wins homepage is the same as the selection of games you’ll find at any other Jumpman site, but let’s focus on those with an Irish theme. Two of them, unsurprisingly, are from the Rainbow Riches series; Rainbow Riches: Pick ‘n Mix (which gives players control over which bonuses are included in the game) and Rainbow Riches: Megaways (which is self-explanatory). Curiously, the original Rainbow Riches slot doesn’t get any feature space. If you’ve already played the Rainbow Riches slots to death, you might be interested in Leprechaun’s Luck: Cash Collect by Playtech and the colourful Wild Wild Riches by Pragmatic Play.

Licensing and Customer Support

As is the case with every Jumpman Gaming casino site, Irish Wins is covered by UK Gambling Commission licence 39175. The licence is valid, but regulatory action has been taken against Jumpman Gaming in the past. In May 2022, the operator opted to pay the UKGC £500,000 as a settlement rather than risk a formal penalty. They’d been accused of failings in their anti-money laundering and customer protection processes. Sending an email to support@irishwins.co.uk is the only way to get assistance at the casino other than using the FAQ.

Withdrawal Speed and Support

The minimum wait for a withdrawal at Irish Wins is three days because that’s how long the casino’s automatic pending period lasts when a withdrawal has been requested. There’s no way of bypassing or speeding up the process. Beyond that, there might be a further wait of between one and three days while funds clear. The approved withdrawal methods at Irish Wins are e-wallets (Neteller, Skrill, PayPal) or debit cards (Visa, Mastercard).

Final Thoughts on Irish Wins

There are some strong Irish-themed casinos on the Jumpman Gaming platform. Irish Wins is not one of them. The theme has been applied in a generic way and isn’t used to its full potential. Using an Irish-themed game for the casino’s welcome promotion would be the minimum we’d expect, but Irish Wins doesn’t even do that. Throw in the usual Jumpman Gaming problems – little customer support, high wagering requirements and slow withdrawals – and this is one you might want to give a miss.

Irish Wins FAQ

Does the welcome offer use an Irish game?

No, and that is the odd part. A site built on an Irish theme had every chance to attach its offer to an Irish slot and did not. Older terms put x65 on free spin winnings, which is above the current British limit.

What keeps rewarding me at Irish Wins?

That same Mega Reel, the one that sets your welcome gift. Five Irish Wins trophies buys another spin of it, so the mechanic never changes from the day you join to the day you leave, and there is no separate loyalty ladder behind it.

Are there Irish-themed games?

There are, though you have to look for them. The homepage lineup is the standard one used across this operator’s brands, with the Irish titles sitting inside it rather than being showcased.

How long do I wait to be paid?

Three days minimum, since the automatic pending period cannot be bypassed or sped up, plus one to three days more while funds clear. Neteller, Skrill, PayPal, Visa and Mastercard are the approved routes.

Can I reach Irish Wins?

By email to support@irishwins.co.uk, or the FAQ, and nothing else at all. That is standard across this operator, and it is no less limiting for being normal here: anything urgent waits until somebody reads your message.

Is it the best Irish-themed site here?

Not close. Several brands on this platform do the theme far better, and this one applies it generically without making anything of it. Account 39175 has a £500,000 settlement recorded against it, dating from May 2022.
