King Billy
One King to rule them all? Perhaps not in the Westeroses and the Middle Earths fictional worlds, but perhaps, yes, in the online gaming world. King Billy came on the scene with quite a big bang, only a couple of years ago. And since then it has been gathering industry awards like mushrooms after a really heavy rain.
Of course, there is a saying which goes “awards are for us, but market share is for the special ones of us”. So… how special is His Majesty King Billy, First of His Name, Rightful Ruler of the Kingdom, Guardian of the Realm, Supreme Commander of the Royal Forces and Protector of the Players? (hey, imagine a business card with this!)
Well, he is special enough to strike a soft chord in Aussie players which is as difficult. For an international casino, as nailing vegemite to a tree. However, it is absolutely true, as the reputation of the King Billy Casino is rising steadily among players in Australia and New Zealand and you can see why in the review that follows!
Welcome Bonus
Have you ever seen a King, playing it small? Miniature bonuses or mini promotions cannot really fit the concept of a King, so the fellas at King Billy Casino have played accordingly and named their Welcome Offer the “Big 4”. And we’re not talking here about 4 big persons, tennis players, entrepreneurs, horses, etc, but about 4 big, juicy, satisfying bonuses which make up the Welcome Bonus at King Billy Casino.
How does this work?
- 1st deposit at King Billy: 100% bonus up to $300 + 200 Free Spins
- 2nd deposit at King Billy: 50% bonus up to $300
- 3rd deposit at King Billy: 25% bonus up to $450
- 4th deposit at King Billy: 25% bonus up to $450
Total worth of the Welcome Bonus: $1,500 + 200 Free Spins. Thank you very much Your Majesty First of your Name etc, we think we like this.
Games
There are several ways to judge an online casino’s games. If one goes by quantity, then King Billy Casino is right up there at the stratosphere, with its more than 6,000 titles, adding more and more each week. If you tried each King Billy game for only one minute, you would need more than 40 consecutive hours of playing (which sounds a lot of fun, but comes with the disclaimer “don’t try this at home”)!
What about providers? Thumbs up again for King Billy, First of his name (or was it second?) etc. All the providers worth their salt (unfortunately a few of them not available to Australians through no fault of the casino) are here, jostling to take a front seat in players’ preference.
Alphabetically, we ‘re talking about Betsoft, Bgaming, Blueprint, Booming Games, Booongo, Endorphina, Evolution Gaming, Ezugi, Felix Gaming, GameArt, Habanero, iSoftBet, NetEnt, No Limit, Play ‘N Go, Playson, Pragmatic Play, Quickfire, Quickspin, Spinomenal, Thunderkick, Vivo Gaming, Wazdan and last but not least Yggdrasil. That’s an impressive list Your Majesty!
But when it comes to King Billy Casino games, there is more than meets the royal eye. We came across a truly original feature, called “King Billy Slot of the Month” which is basically an excellent way for players to win Free Spins and also acclimatize themselves with brand new, blockbuster slots everyone has been talking about and everyone has been eager to play.
This super list of King Billy Casino slots of the month, has included, among others, such slot sensations as NetEnt’s “Berryburst Max” and “Dead or Alive II”, Play ‘N Go’s “Tome of Madness”, iSoftBet’s “Wild Ape” and “3888 ways of the Dragon” and Yggdrasil’s “Nitro Circus”.
Live Casino
A Live Casino player is, perhaps, the most demanding online player out there. And an Aussie Live Casino player is even harder to please! However, King Billy has all bases covered through a partnership with the crème de la crème of live casino gaming, the revolutionary Evolution Gaming.
Prepare to get immersed in the magic of the Immersive Roulette, or play it fast with various versions of fast roulette. The really high rollers can, of course, enjoy privé salons for special, private roulette experiences. All in all, no less than 40 Blackjack tables, 9 Baccarat Tables and many types of roulette are present at King Billy Casino for hours of uninterrupted fun.
Mobile Casino
The King looks cool on the small screen! Moreover, as one can expect from an awarded online casino, barely 2 years of age, King Billy is paying a lot of attention to its mobile platform. This means that players are able to sign up and log in to King Billy from a wide range of mobile devices and play all the games they love without a single glitch.
So, if you are that special breed of player who likes to gamble online wherever the opportunity arises, then King Billy’s seamless mobile casino platform is made just for you. Furthermore, you will not need to download any apps as the casino uses all the latest mobile technologies.
Promotions
Don’t miss the King Billy Casino “Promotions” bar, either from your mobile phone or your desktop! Not often can one come across so meticulously and well thought promotions and offers, right down to the last detail, including the name of the promotion and the accompanying 3D visual of our friend, first of his name, you know.
Once you scroll down the Big 4 Welcome Bonus and the Slot of the Month promo which we analyzed above in our review, you find the “King’s Gift”. Intrigued? And you should be! The King’s Gift is the way of the King to reward his loyal players, by offering a massive cashback of up to 13%, every Thursday, completely wager free. You have scored on this one King!
Scroll more and you will discover that King Billy Casino has a fixation on Free Spins. Which is just what the doctor ordered. The name of the promotion is (rather obviously) “Spin and Win” and the casino informs us that Free Spins are fun, but Free Daily Spins are more fun. Therefore, it is giving out 100 Free Spins every day on super popular slots. We’re Free Spins lovers, we think we’ll take this.
Finally, the long list of King Billy Casino promotions ends up where the week starts. Every Monday, King Billy players can take advantage of the “Extra Weekend”. The promo which gives out both bonuses and Free Spins to players. So they will start the week on the most positive note possible.

VIP program
You gotta love this, even if you believe that Karl Marx was the new messiah. Upon registration, you enter the King Billy Kingdom as a Citizen. By playing, having enormous and uninterrupted fun and collecting King’s Points, you move up the royalty ladder at an amazing pace.
The first loyalty title you are awarded (no need to kneel in front of His Majesty) is Baron or Baroness. Then you move up to Duke/Duchess, Prince/Princess and finally you become a King/Queen yourself. Sitting right next to the throne of King Billy himself and enjoying enormous perks by the King Billy VIP Department.
Banking
King Billy spoils you not only with games selections but also with banking selections. All the methods and models of payments, including the ones that are vastly popular in Australia are here to choose from. Just check out the alphabetical list below and we feel very confident that you will find the one that suits you.
Deposit methods at King Billy Casino: Visa, Mastercard, Neosurf, Purple Pay.
The period of processing requests for withdrawals at King Billy Casino is from 0 to 24 hours. However, players will find out that the casino prides itself on processing as fast as possible. Something which has given them good word of mouth in various online gaming forums.
Support
We left the King Billy Casino Support Department for last. That’s because we really think that these guys and girls deserve something of an encore, for the added value they provide to the casino. Some information first: Chat is accessible over live chat or email. And it seems to be one of the strongest cards of King Billy Casino.
To elaborate on this, here follows a rule that the good people at King Billy Casino wanted to share with us. In order to show their mettle to the world: “Each player who contacts King Billy Casino will receive information within 15 seconds, a time limit never to be exceeded”. By constant training, supervision and QA management, the King Billy Agents, as they proudly told us, are successful with their 15 second rule, 98.47% of the times. Way to go people.
Finally, you gotta love a Support Department that has bought the myth and story of the whole casino. Thus providing a full brand experience to its customers – and isn’t that the Holy Grail in today’s online gaming world? So, don’t be surprised when Agents start calling you “My Lord” or “My Lady”. It is sweet and very, very funny.
Conclusion
So, we are coming, finally, to the end of our journey in the Kingdom of King Billy. It is obvious from what you have read so far, that there is not a lot to complain about King Billy Casino. It really seems that all those industry awards they have been receiving were given for a reason. Actually for several reasons.
The abundance and quality of the games and providers, the superb promotions, the speed of transactions and payments, the look and feel of the casino, the intuitive user experience across all platforms, the top notch support department. And finally the fully fleshed out myth of King Billy, who even has a blog of his own, are reasons enough for repeated visits at this casino.
King Billy is recommended to all types of players.
