Unibet is a fit for a player who wants Evolution live roulette, live blackjack and game shows, plus a few tables that carry the Unibet name, all under a Gambling Commission licence. The welcome offer is built around slots rather than live tables, and Unibet's pages give no table limits or withdrawal times. Every fact on this page is tested and checked by the On Air Tables team.

Live tables and studios
Unibet's casino page names Evolution as the supplier of its live roulette, live blackjack, Lightning Roulette and Crazy Time. The provider list on the same page also names Pragmatic Play Live, Stakelogic Live and OnAir, alongside slot studios such as Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Red Tiger, Blueprint Gaming, Hacksaw Gaming, Big Time Gaming and Relax Gaming.
Some tables carry the Unibet name. Unibet Speed Roulette is described as live roulette at twice the pace. Unibet Baccarat is a baccarat table with a dedicated studio. Unibet Free Blackjack is tied to splits and doubles on selected hands. Unibet Blackjack VIP completes the list.
Unibet's pages give no table limits for these games, so check the limits shown on a table before you join it. Unibet says most live games need real-money bets, because they run with real dealers and live infrastructure.
Game shows
The live casino page lists these game shows: Dream Catcher, Monopoly Live, Mega Ball, Sweet Bonanza CandyLand, Lightning Dice and Monopoly Roulette. It describes Dream Catcher as a money wheel with multipliers up to 40x, Monopoly Live as a dice game with bonus multipliers, Mega Ball as lottery-style draws with multipliers up to 1,000x, and Sweet Bonanza CandyLand as a candy-themed wheel with bonus features.
Crazy Time, listed with the Evolution tables above, is a game show too. Game show names belong to their studios and are used here only to describe what Unibet lists. Our guide to live casino game shows explains how the formats differ.
Welcome offer and live game wagering
The casino welcome offer is for slots. The offer page says 300 free spins are credited once you have opted in, deposited and played £30 on slot games. The spins are on Big Bass Splash, each valued at 0.10p. The deposit must be £30 or more by debit card or instant bank transfer. Credit cards, Apple Pay, PayPal, Paysafe Cards, Skrill and Neteller do not qualify.
Bonus funds carry wagering of 10x on slot games, and winnings from the spins must also be wagered 10x before they become withdrawable. On game contribution, slot games count 100% and table games count 10%, and some games are blocked from bonus play. The page gives no separate figure for live games. The maximum bet is £15 per spin on slots while bonus funds are in use.
You have 7 days from registration to claim the spins, and 48 hours to use them once claimed. More on how live games count towards bonuses is in our guide to live casino bonuses.
Deposits and withdrawals
Unibet's pages show logos for Visa and Trustly. The welcome offer page names debit card and instant bank transfer for its qualifying deposit. Unibet's pages give no general minimum deposit and no withdrawal time. The £30 minimum applies to the welcome offer only.
Unibet's terms set the standard minimum withdrawal at £5 to any payment service, or the equivalent in another currency. This is the only one of the withdrawal limits the pages give. On fees, the terms say Unibet will never charge for making a deposit, and no withdrawal fee is given. Unibet's pages name no other payment methods and give no currency list.
Licence and company
Unibet is run by Platinum Gaming Limited, a company incorporated in Gibraltar with company registration number 114100. Its registered office is Sovereign Place, 117 Main Street, Gibraltar, GX11 1AA. The brand is part of FDJ United and began in 1997.
The terms say Unibet is licensed and regulated by the Gambling Commission of Great Britain, licence number 45322, for customers located in Great Britain. On Air Tables lists only casinos that hold a Gambling Commission licence. Disputes about whether Unibet acted reasonably may be referred to its independent ADR provider, eCogra, or decided by the courts.
Pros and cons
Pros from our rating:
- Welcome offer wagering of 10x
- Reward Zone with 3 tiers
- Live chat
- Apps on the App Store and Google Play
Con from our rating:
- Account and safety scores 3 of 5 in our rating: no active licence register status found on its pages
Our rating for Unibet is 4.2 out of 5. It is rated on five of six criteria, because the casino does not state a game count.
Play within your limits
Set deposit, loss and time limits before you play, and keep to them. Live rounds and game show spins come quickly, and speed tables such as Unibet Speed Roulette play faster still, so set a session time as well as a money limit. Every round is independent: no run of results makes the next one more likely.
Unibet's responsible gaming page lists these tools: Deposit Limit, Net Deposit Limit, Product Block, Set Product Restrictions, Test your Player Profile and Activate Self Exclusion. A bonus or a large multiplier on screen is never a reason to raise a limit or chase a loss.
Each gambling business must run its own self-exclusion arrangements. Gamstop blocks every online site licensed in Great Britain at once. You must be 18 or over to play.

- NHS Wales Helpline, Wales: 0808 2819 265
- Gamstop, for self-exclusion from every online site licensed in Great Britain
- GambleAware, whose support services are available only to Great Britain residents
