Intro

Wink Slots is a sister of the hugely popular UK bingo site, Wink Bingo. As the name suggests, the focus of Wink Slots is very much on slot titles. 

While there are a few games from other categories here, this one is for the slots fans, and there are over 500 to choose from. 

A range of different software developers provide the titles here, and a bonus of up to 30 spins before you even make a deposit sweetens the deal even further! 

Read our Wink Slots review to find out more about the games, bonuses, banking options, and more from this much-loved UK online casino site.

You will receive your first bonus from Wink Slots simply by signing up to this online casino, with no deposit necessary. When you do, visit the My Wink tab and click on the Trophy tab to access 30 free spins. These spins are given 10 a day across your first three days as a registered Wink Slots member. 

Day one’s 10 spins are for 99 Time, followed by 10 on White Wizard Deluxe, and ending with 10 on Sugar Train.

When you do go ahead and make a deposit, there are further treats in store. With your first deposit at Wink Slots, you’ll receive a 100% match up to £100 (minimum £10). Additionally, you’ll also receive another 30 spins on a NetEnt slot of your choice from Aloha! Cluster Pays, Finn & The Swirly Spin, Starburst, and Twin Spin. These spins must be claimed within seven days.

Further promotions including spins, bonus money, and tournaments are available for existing customers once your welcome bonus is over.

Software

This slots-focused site has called in most of the big names in software development to ensure a solid collection of games is present. 

Some notable names are missing, the biggest arguably being Microgaming, but the likes of IGT, NetEnt, Play’n Go, and more are present.

Games

It is undeniable that slots are what Wink Slots is all about. Earning its name with aplomb, there is very little outside of the selection of five-reel (and three-reel and six-reel!) games to choose from. 

With such a focus on one game category, it needs to be very good, and luckily it is! 

Full disclosure, this isn’t the best slots selection you’ll find, 500 games in total is excellent, but there are sites with twice that. However, what you do get here is the absolute best slots around, including progressive jackpots like Mega Fortune, all with a jackpot counter attached to the thumbnails so you can decide which slot feels lucky for you today!  

New releases from the big-name developers are added regularly, so there’s often something fresh and exciting to try. 

In terms of navigation, browsing is pretty simple, with slots split into categories and a search bar to find titles. You can’t search by software provider, which would be a welcome addition. 

A boost is given by the presence of 888 and Dragonfish software, meaning some slots available here are only present at other slots on the same network. Granted, there are many slots on the network at this stage, but there’s still a sense of exclusivity at least.

The live casino is a relatively recent addition to the Wink Slots site. The information on the casino site itself is refreshingly honest, stating that the attention is on slots, but a few live casino games have been provided to keep things varied (we paraphrase here, but not by much).

The majority of the titles come from Evolution, the kings of live dealer games, and include variations of blackjack and roulette. 

There are also a few baccarat games, including the Dragon Tiger variant, Dreamcatcher, a unique Evolution game.

A few traditional live dealer games are also provided by NetEnt, a developer now owned by Evolution, and, in the opinion of most, second to that developer in terms of quality live casino titles.

Streamed from the professional-looking Evolution and NetEnt live casino studios, the numbers here may be limited, but the games that do exist are as close to the real-life casino experience as you can get from your armchair!

The only blackjack games on offer at Wink Slots are those in the live casino section. While there are a few non-live table and card games, blackjack does not feature.

Similarly to blackjack, roulette is not on offer at Wink Slots outside of the live casino environment.

There are a few video poker options available in the Casino section of the Wink Slots casino site. 

You’ll find Aces & Faces, American Stars, Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Joker’s Wild, and more variants to tickle that video poker itch if you need it. 

Alongside arcade games and scratchcards, video poker is one of the best-represented game types outside of slot games.

There are a total of seven payment methods available for players at Wink Slots, which is substantially fewer than many competitor sites. 

These methods include debit cards, pay by phone, PayPal, Paysafecard, and wire transfer. 

That’s a good variety, but the lack of Neteller, Skrill, and Trustly just to name a few sees Wink Slots fall behind others.

Pay by phone and Paysafecard methods are deposit only methods, so for withdrawals options are even more limited. Additionally, Wink Slots takes 48 hours on average to process a withdrawal request, which delays the time it takes for your money to reach your account.

Design & Usability

It would have been easy for Wink Slots to be simply a clone of Wink Bingo, the site from which it gets its name. Pleasingly, however, more effort than that has been put into the design here.

The logo is similar, and there are certainly similarities, enough to maintain the branding, which is logical. But Wink Slots has a different colour scheme and more of a focus on navigational ease than its predecessor. 

The dark blue design houses sections for slots, scratchcards, casino, and arcade games, with most having sub-categories. This is especially important with slots, as browsing 500 titles can get tiring!

Support Options

There’s the full range of expected contact methods available for Wink Slots customers. Email and phone support are on offer, and once registered, there is also a live chat service. 

This live chat option is not 24/7, however, only being open 10am-2am (GMT) Monday-Sunday. 

A more consistent support system would be appreciated, but at least there’s a good variety of customer service options available.

Wink Slots has a mobile app for both Android and iOS customers which offers a range of slots and all the promotions and bonuses of the desktop site (including the welcome bonus).

Those looking to save phone memory should be happy to discover that you can also access the Wink Slots site via your web browser.

Registration and login here is the same as it is for laptop and desktop customers, with some slight tweaks being made to the design of the site to ensure optimal usability from mobile devices.  

While there shouldn’t be problems with lag or slow loading here, you may enjoy a smoother experience using the downloadable Wink Slots mobile app.

App Review

Compatible with the majority of Android and iOS smartphone and tablet devices, the Wink Slots app is quick to download, doesn’t take up too much space, and offers a good couple of hundred games to enjoy. 

This is a smaller selection than the desktop version of the site, but that’s to be expected from mobile casino apps.

The app has everything the Wink Slots site has in terms of bonuses, payment methods, and customer service.  These benefits are combined with touchscreen controls, an easy-to-follow user interface, and push notifications to keep players up to date with the latest promotions and bonus offers.

Loyalty and VIP Rewards

Wink Slots does not have a loyalty program at this stage. No points are gained for playing slots or other casino games at this site. 

However, there is a Wink Slots promotion that works a little similarly. 

Play slots and other games at Wink Casinos and you could receive daily cashback of 3% of your losses from the day before. This means the more you play (and in turn, the more you lose!) the higher your return will be the next day. The Daily Cashback promotion is capped at £100 per day.

There are also Daily Challenges, where you must complete certain tasks (involving playing real-money casino games) to win free spins, bonus cash, and more. 

So, while there is not an official loyalty program here, Wink Slots gives you reasons to come back and play every day!
