2020 Founding year · On our list since 6 Nov 2024 · Established casino
Casinova launched in 2020 and states a PAGCOR licence from the Philippines. It has Android and iPhone apps and one of the longest deposit lists on our list, from GCash, Maya and GrabPay to Interac, Postepay, EPS and Apple Pay.
Its studio list includes Evolution, Playtech and Real Dealer Studios for live play, and Nolimit City, Hacksaw Gaming and Push Gaming for slots. No withdrawal methods are on file.

Short answer
Should you try Casinova?
Casinova offers apps, broad deposit options and a deep library. Its licence is the problem: the Philippines ordered PAGCOR-licensed offshore operators to close by the end of 2024, so check what licence Casinova holds today. With no withdrawal methods on file, test a small payout before you claim a bonus.

Licence on the regulator's register
A logo in the footer proves nothing. The licence number and company name must appear on the regulator's own register, with the same domain.
Copy the licence number from the casino's footer and search it on the regulator's public register. Some regulators publish no searchable register; then ask support for the certificate.

What €2,000 is worth
At offers of this size the total is usually spread over several deposits. Set the bonus part you would actually receive, then the wagering from the casino's terms: wagering is not in our offer data for this casino yet.
Casinova offer worksheet
WorksheetSet the bonus part you would claim. The default is a first-deposit example, not the casino's terms.
You must bet €8,000 before the bonus turns into cash. At 96.0% RTP that costs €320 on average, so the bonus is worth about -€120.

Questions
Casinova: questions
Is Casinova a new casino?
It launched in 2020, so it has a few years behind it. The date it joined our list is in the register entry.
Is Casinova licensed?
Casinova states a PAGCOR licence. PAGCOR is the Philippine state gaming regulator. In 2024 the Philippines ordered all offshore gaming operators licensed by PAGCOR to shut down by the end of that year, so a PAGCOR licence is hard to square with a casino that serves players abroad. Ask support for the licence number and check it on pagcor.ph.
What is the Casinova welcome bonus?
The headline offer is $2,000, as stated by the casino. Read the deposit split and the wagering in the bonus terms before you claim.
Does Casinova have an app?
Yes. Our data lists Android and iPhone apps.
Can I deposit with GCash at Casinova?
Yes. GCash, Maya and GrabPay are on its deposit list. Withdrawal methods are not on file, so ask support how payouts work.
Responsible gaming
Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun
These rules apply on every page of this site. A casino in its first year has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.
Adults only, everywhere
You must be 18 or older, and older in some countries. A casino can ask for ID before your first withdrawal, and new casinos often do.
Responsible gamingStart small with an unknown casino
Deposit an amount you would accept losing to a failed withdrawal, and request a small cash-out early to see how the casino handles it.
How we review new casinosSet limits before the welcome offer
Bonus wagering keeps you playing longer. Set a deposit limit and a time limit in the account before you claim.
