I know what you are thinking - "this must be part of the steel play you've been talking about non-stop since December. . .blah, blah, blah. . .yeah, we know. . .don't need anymore CB from you."
That's Confirmation Bias for the newbies.
I know, if you are here you know about steel and why I like $MT - hey, it was up today - I think we see more price run due to $MT being able to unload $CLF shares - which I also think is bullish for $CLF and yes, I'm buying more $CLF on the dip tomorrow.
It was a brilliant move, in my opinion, by our boy, LG @ $CLF.
He clears the deck before the earnings call and this is seen as a bullish move to pay off 9.875% high interest notes with a share offering of 60 million, 40 million of which is being sold by $MT.
20 million shares by $CLF.
I'll have more coming on these two, but I like the move for both.
So, back to the miners - $BHP, $FCX, $RIO & $VALE.
I do like the iron ore play on steel and believe we will see elevated prices considerably above historic norms for the remainder of 2021.
However, what I like more than iron ore are the metals that are going into smartphones, computers, and batteries for EV's and infrastructure.
So, we have:
$BHP - https://www.bhp.com/our-businesses/
$FCX - https://fcx.com/
$RIO - https://www.riotinto.com/products
$VALE - http://www.vale.com/EN/business/mining/Pages/default.aspx
The increased demand of:
NICKEL - been on a tear since March lows https://www.investing.com/commodities/nickel-historical-data - the price is more tied to stainless steel, but Battery Plays are driving speculation.
COPPER - The price of copper is believed to provide a reliable measure of economic health, as changes to copper prices can suggest global growth or an upcoming recession. With high volatility and strong liquidity, copper is attractive to traders. Copper spot price is affected by extraction and transportation costs, as well as supply and demand.

BTW, I'm bullish AF on $AA, but that too is a DD for another day.
Now the Confirmation Bias:

COPPER

https://www.mining.com/copper-price-lifted-by-us-stimulus-china-inventory-squeeze/
Copper prices rose on Monday as optimism around a US stimulus raised hopes of higher demand for metals and a recovery in the world’s biggest economy.
The copper price rose as much as 1.3% to $3.6745 ($8,100 a tonne) on the Comex market on Monday, with March delivery contracts back within shouting distance of multi-year highs hit early in January.
The metal has rallied nearly 90% since the depth of the pandemic in March.

Thinning inventories

The rise in copper prices is underpinned by thinning inventories that pointed to higher demand for the industrial metal.
“Inventories are still quite low on exchanges. That gives good indication that manufacturing demand for copper is present and that its not just a speculative story,” Nitesh Shah, an analyst at investment manager WisdomTree, told Reuters.
In China, the world’s top consumer, copper inventories normally accumulate in the run up to the Lunar New Year as businesses close for the week-long festivities.
But this year, Chinese inventories have dropped to near decade lows on robust demand from factories, which are maintaining high operating rates due to shortened shutdown periods and tighter travel restrictions for workers.
Meanwhile, effects of the coronavirus pandemic on copper supply continues to be felt. In what was supposed to be a year of supply growth, global mined output during the first 10 months of 2020 were 0.5% lower compared to 2019 levels, according to the International Copper Study Group (ICSG).
In Peru, the world’s second-biggest producer, copper output plunged 12.5% to 2.15 million tonnes in 2020, the country’s Energy and Mines Ministry said on Monday.

Copper miners gain

Despite copper prices hitting a slump in the second half of January, the world’s top copper producers have continued to rally this year after spectacular gains in 2020.
Shares of BHP, the largest publicly traded copper company, are up 6% year-to-date.
Copper, like most commodities, has been a cyclical investment whose demand ebbs and flows with economic cycles. Traditionally, roughly half of all copper demand has come from new building construction and infrastructure, China has been the single biggest market by far. With many global economies in or entering recovery phases, cyclical demand is on the upswing.
Green initiatives around the world offer a secular tailwind as well. The European Green Deal, President Joe Biden’s ambitious climate plan, and China’s target of carbon neutral by 2060 all point to increasing incremental demand for copper.
Although mining stocks have in many cases quadrupled since their March 2020 lows, many names are still trading below their previous highs, and at a time when fundamentals are improving.
Take Freeport-McMoRan, $FCX, a Phoenix-based company whose business is roughly 70% copper, 20% gold, and 10% other. The stock plummeted to $7 a share during the selloff last spring and has since recovered to a recent $30. But it is still about half what it was at previous highs of around $60 in early 2008 and 2011.
The big news on copper yesterday was regarding $RIO and the Mongolian situation.
Feb 8 (Reuters) - Mongolia's government is seeking to cancel a deal with miner Rio Tinto to expand the OyuTolgoi copper mine in the Gobi Desert and replace it with a new agreement, the Financial Times reported.
https://www.miningweekly.com/article/mongolia-seeks-more-tax-revenue-from-rio-copper-mine-expansion--source-2021-02-09/rep_id:3650
Many thought this was potentially bad news for $RIO, but it appears it's about working out a little more tax dollars for the government and a deal will be struck.
The underground expansion will push annual production to nearly 500,000 tonnes per year, making it among the world’s biggest copper mines

Global copper demand

As mentioned above, it’s not likely that copper demand will slow down in 2021.
In the US, new home and home renovation demand spiked since the pandemic started, along with electronics demand. Analysts at CitiBank expect the copper market to shift into a deficit in the second half of the year with a minor surplus overall for 2021, Reuters reported. They also forecast deficits in 2022 and 2023.
The US Census Bureau and the US Department of Housing and Urban Development reported building permits in December increased by 4.5% compared to November and 17.3% above the December 2019 rate. Privately owned housing continued to increase in December, rising by 5.8% from the previous month and by 5.2% compared to December 2019. The uptrend started in September 2020.
China will continue to play an important role in the copper market. The country accounts for about half of global primary consumption, which is then used to manufacture export goods.
According to the aforementioned Reuters report, appliances output also increased in China. Similarly, China’s refrigerators exports went up by 45% in December 2020 compared to December 2019. During the same period, exports of microwave ovens rose by 35%.

Indonesian copper smelter

Indonesian politician Luhut Pandjaitan, said Freeport-McMoRan, $FCX and Tsingshan Holding Group reached a $2.8 billion deal to build a copper smelter in Indonesia’s Weda Bay. The smelter would process copper concentrate from the Grasberg mine. Luhut did not report a timeline, per the report.
“The smelter will produce copper pipes and wires of which output can be worth $10 billion or more,” the minister reportedly told IDX Channel. The smelter will aim to produce copper products to be used in lithium battery components. Indonesia is working to build an electric vehicle supply chain, as it is also a major nickel producer.

ALUMINUM

https://www.thomasnet.com/insights/aluminum-can-sourcing-sees-unprecedented-surge-amid-white-claw-truly-hard-seltzer-craze/
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-19/aluminum-buyers-forced-to-pay-up-after-underestimating-recovery - more profits coming.
All told, the outlook for aluminum in 2021 looks better than it did even three months ago. Fourth quarter prices rose about 9% yoy and 12% qoq to $1,914/t, the best prices since the fourth quarter of 2018. What's more, with the global economy recovering, management is calling for roughly 7% demand growth in '21, ahead of supply growth, and a more balance market for the year.
With that, I think there's a good chance for aluminum prices to average out over $2,100/t in 2021 - the best price on an annual basis since 2011 (though just barely above 2008). As always, a great deal rides on China - Chinese producers have a history of being less than responsible when it comes to supply, but Chinese demand is looking more robust and the government has been increasingly stringent with less efficient, more polluting smelters, so the volume risk here may not be as troubling as before.
Then the big news many in the US had been waiting for and potentially an insight to what Biden will do about Section 232 Steel Tariffs;
https://agmetalminer.com/2021/02/08/aluminum-mmi-us-reinstates-tariff-on-aluminum-imported-from-uae/

High aluminum scrap demand

A Midwest-based trader told Construction & Demolition Recycling that demand for aluminum scrap remains high at secondary smelters that supply the automotive industry in the U.S.
Chad Kripke, an executive vice president of Kripke Enterprise, a nonferrous scrap brokerage firm, confirmed that many sellers are relying on the spot market rather than signing contracts for 2021. This signals that it is a seller’s market.
This market environment is due to the reduced flows of scrap, which has caused spreads to tighten. As a result, secondary producers are opting to purchase scrap at what they might view as high prices rather than risking a lack of material.
The Application of the World Aluminum Alloy Sheet Market 2021-2027 as follows:
Building and construction Automobiles and transport Aerospace and defence Industrial and general engineering
This screams recovery play and Infrastructure spending.

NICKEL & ZINC

You really can't mention one without the other, especially when it comes to batteries:
Nickel-zinc (NiZn) chemistries are the primary competitors displacing lead-acid in the marketplace. Both promise smaller footprints and longer operational life than lead-acid batteries. While the tradeoffs of lithium-ion batteries are more well known, given their wide use in other energy storage applications, NiZn technology has specific advantages in terms of reliability, safety, and sustainability over both lead-acid and lithium-ion solutions.
It is abundantly clear that the future of high energy batteries will converge on layered oxides increasingly rich in nickel. ... Early lithium-ion batteries comprised a cathode of lithium cobalt oxide [LiCoO2] and an anode of graphitic carbon. Cobalt can be replaced by other metals such as manganese, nickel, and aluminum.

With the rising demand for EVs, the need to secure critical nickel supplies is becoming ever more pressing for battery producers and automakers alike.
Fitch currently forecasts global EV sales to rise by 41.9% to reach over 4.3mn units in 2021 with sales expected to breach the 14mn mark by 2030. This accelerated pace of EV sales growth will place strong upward pressure on the price of raw materials used in batteries and will force battery producers to develop more affordable batteries, Fitch asserts, which more often than not means higher nickel content and lower cobalt content.
And the 500 Pound Gorilla - $TSLA
https://www.mining.com/tesla-investment-to-position-indonesia-as-ev-battery-production-hub-report/
BTW, do you know who the largest nickel miner in Indonesia is?
$VALE
http://www.vale.com/indonesia/EN/investors/indonesia-investors/company/at-glance/Pages/default.aspx
$VALE + $TSLA = $VALE's moon rocket. . .
As I have said from my first postings in this series on steel, scrap, ore - these metals I have just listed will be the complimentary plays becoming the body of 2021, with steel remaining the backbone.
Some extra knowledge on the most expensive metals as of today and a good stock to capture the increased costs and demand:

Rhodium

Relatively unknown to the layperson, rhodium is quietly one of the hottest trades right now, after a price surge of more than 30% this year. Rhodium previously peaked – and quickly crashed – in 2008 at more than $10,000 per troy ounce (ozt), but the metal is now trading above that 2008 high on the back of a swell in demand from the automotive industry.
Rhodium is used in catalytic converters, a part of vehicle exhaust systems that reduce toxic gas emissions and pollutants. According to S&P Global Platts, almost 80% of demand for rhodium and palladium comes from the global automotive industry. Fortunately for South Africa at least, around 80% of all rhodium is mined within its borders.
Part of the reason for the metal’s price leap is its rarity. Annual rhodium production sits at around 30 tonnes – to place that in context, gold miners annually dig up between 2,500 and 3,000 tonnes of the precious metal. Rhodium also benefitted from the Volkswagen emissions scandal, or Dieselgate, the 2015 emissions scandal that rocked the automotive industry. With major economies including China and India tightening emissions rules, platinum group metals (PGM) miners are anticipating good times ahead for rhodium.

Palladium

Rhodium’s little brother palladium also did well out of the Dieselgate scandal. After sales of diesel vehicles slumped and petrol alternatives came back into fashion, platinum – used primarily in catalytic converters for diesel vehicles – took a tumble, while petrol-friendly palladium rose.
Palladium is the most expensive of the four major precious metals – gold, silver and platinum being the others. It is rarer than platinum, and is used in larger quantities for catalytic converters. In the near-term, the demand for metals used in catalytic converters is expected to be steady, buoyed by growing automotive sales in Asia. However, the increased uptake of battery-electric vehicles – which do not use catalytic converters – could see palladium demand take a hit.

Platinum

The namesake of the platinum-group metals is also the worst-performing on the market, having taken a huge hit from the Volkswagen emissions scandal. Platinum’s primary use has been in catalytic converters for diesel vehicles – 45% of the platinum sold in 2014 went to the automotive industry. As consumers and manufacturers moved away from diesel in the wake of Dieselgate, platinum lost out to palladium, which performs better in petrol vehicles.
Platinum traditionally traded at a higher price than gold and combined with platinum’s rarity compared with gold, “platinum” as an adjective has come to be associated with a higher level of prestige than gold. Despite platinum’s troubles and gold now trading above it, that reputation has stayed.
Platinum deposits are largely concentrated in South Africa, with the country supplying around three-quarters of the world’s demand. Anglo American Platinum, Impala Platinum and Lonmin make up the top global platinum producers.
Which brings me to Sibayne Stillwater - $SBSW, which has also shown a strong reversal over the same time as these other stocks shared above:
​
https://preview.redd.it/qo083s8ofgg61.png?width=1170&format=png&auto=webp&s=3c54b8a6a79bb8d85fd72eadf13cf2735bf3a8b3
https://www.sibanyestillwater.com/about-us/
Sibanye-Stillwater is a leading international precious metals mining company, with a diverse portfolio of platinum group metal (PGM) operations in the United States and Southern Africa, gold operations and projects in South Africa, and copper, gold and PGM exploration properties in North and South America.
It is the world’s largest primary producer of platinum and rhodium, the second largest primary producer of palladium and a top tier gold producer, ranking third globally, on a gold-equivalent basis, as well as a significant producer of other PGMs and associated minerals such as chrome. SBSW is also the globally leading recycler and processor of spent PGM catalytic converter materials.
https://www.kitco.com/news/2021-02-05/Sibanye-Stillwater-earnings-surge-on-higher-metal-prices-and-solid-performance.html
Sibanye-Stillwater said despite COVID-19 disruptions, its expected earnings increase was underpinned by a solid operational performance, higher metals prices and a weaker rand.
"The production contribution from the Marikana operations for the full 12-month period, following the acquisition of Lonmin in June 2019 and the realisation of significantly higher than forecast synergies, along with a notable return to profitability from the SA gold operations, following the strike in H1 2019, were the main drivers of this operational performance," the company said.
The Minerals Council South Africa recently estimated the country's production was down 10-12% in 2020 due to the pandemic and logistical shortcomings but mining GDP was only down 4% thanks to the rise in commodity prices.
Everything I have laid out on previous DD's regarding steel and metals are all based on recovery demand, global infrastructure investment which will ultimately cost $$$. This money is going to be printed by the US treasury, which will further weaken the $USD and this weakening in the value of the dollar will increase the value of commodities proportionally.
​
https://preview.redd.it/6jhk8gigjgg61.png?width=1948&format=png&auto=webp&s=4a1084854d8a719bf0f1a70c3f798720f4e3ad9e
Expect the value of the DXY to touch 52 week lows of $89.21 and most likely set lower lows as TRILLIONS more are printed and put into the economy.
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/14/powell-sees-no-interest-rate-hikes-on-the-horizon-as-long-as-inflation-stays-low.html
The Fed currently is keeping its benchmark short-term borrowing rate anchored near zero and is buying $120 billion in bonds. At its December meeting, it said those measures would stay in place until substantial progress is made towards the Fed’s inflation and employment goals.
That means the central bank will be more inclined to allow inflation to run higher than the standard 2% target before hiking interest rates.
I believe we will see inflation continue to run on commodities.
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/12/feds-esther-george-cautions-that-inflation-could-rise-faster-than-expected.html
Inflation could rise faster than “some might expect” as the economy recovers from the pandemic, Kansas City Fed President Esther George said.
Lastly, oil.
I have said steel will follow oil and usually it is 6 weeks behind moves in oil prices.
https://preview.redd.it/szjhhl88ngg61.png?width=1592&format=png&auto=webp&s=e79b4671a1d719202d6d98a0fdd1e192f93c24e0
After a rocky 12 months, oil prices — which got crushed when Covid-19 slashed demand for energy around the world — are roaring back.
What's happening: Brent crude futures, the global benchmark, have breached $60 per barrel, their highest level since January 2020.The immediate catalyst appeared to be weekend remarks from President Joe Biden that the United States will not lift sanctions on Iran to get the country back to the negotiating table. But oil prices have been on the upswing for months thanks to optimism that coronavirus vaccines will unleash demand while producers avoid flooding the market with supply.
The bonus with $BHP is you get oil and steel in one play.
Again, I am a value investor and I like to find value where others shy away from and commodities are the red-headed step child that I believe will shine in 2021 for all the reasons I have laid out here and in previous DD's.
I am not your personal financial advisor and do your own research.
Good luck!
-Vito

Winners Magic Casino Games

To keep players engaged to the online casino there must be a big variation of games for players to be entertained and thrilled. A casino’s game library can often make or break it. Being an Aspire Global operated online casino means that Winner’s Magic can offer their customers plenty of options not only when it comes to the number of games but also the number of different categories. Winner’s Magic offers seven categories where players can find games “Featured Games”, “New”, “Video Slots”, “Classic”, “Casino Games”, “Scratch Cards”, and “All Games”.
The biggest category (if you disregard the “All Games” category) is the “Video Slot” category which includes over 400 games. These games are supplied to the casino by some of the most well-known and highly regarded game suppliers in the industry. Some of the most popular slot machine games include “Book of Dead”, “Fruity Friends”, “Wolf Riches” and “Aztec Gold”. These games are supplied by greats within the game supplier industry such as NetEnt, Microgaming, Play’N Go, PariPlay, and BetSoft. The “Video Slots” category also includes jackpot games such as “Bonanza”, “Aztec Gold – MEGAWAYS”, and “Royal Seven XXL”. When a winner hits a jackpot, other players will be able to see their success as Winner’s Magic has a banner with the latest winners on the side of the page that shows the games.
Slot machines can also be found under the category “Classic”, which include titles considered classic slot machines. Some of the titles include “Royal Seven”, “Wild Elements” and “Hot Spin - Deluxe”.
It is more and more popular today for game suppliers to create games inspired by the popular culture. There are games such as “Mission Cash” or “John Hunter and the Aztec treasure” who are reminiscent of character that exist in today’s popular culture (in this case they remind us of James Bond and Indiana Jones). Other games are not just inspired by popular culture but are a part of the franchise such as “Game of Thrones – online slot” or “Jumanji – Video slot”. For players interested in these types of games Winner’s Magic will not be a disappointment as these games and many more are available.
Under the category “Casino games” players will be able to find a selection of top-rated table games with titles such as “Sapphire Roulette”, “Blackjack – Multihand VIP”, and “Baccarat”. This category also includes “Casino Patience” and “Football Studio”. The category includes close to 70 games and it is also under this category that players can find Live Casino games. The Live Casino Games transport the players from wherever in the world they are to a real casino with professional dealers and tables with plenty of other players. The Live Casino games are supplied by one of the most well-known Live Casino game suppliers on the market – Evolution Gaming. Evolution Gaming set themselves apart by not only offering top-quality games, but they also offer many of their games in different languages. Play Roulette in Finnish, German or Norwegian if you dare!
The final category of games available at Winner’s Magic is “Scratch Cards”. This category includes over 60 games. Some of the most popular titles include “Hit The Bank”, “Wizard of all”, “Bingo”, and “Scratch N’ Roll”. The games in this category are all a bit different but what they have in common is that some scratching is required to reveal a win.
We find it incredibly encouraging and exciting that a new casino such as Winner’s Magic offers their customer so many different options when it comes to games. We are also pleased to be able to inform our readers that this casino’s games are independently audited by iTech Labs to ensure that the results are random and fair, yet another point which we find to be very positive.

One of the most important points, when a customer is looking for a new casino, is what payment methods are available for depositing and withdrawing. The online casino must offer their customer methods which are both more local like (Zimpler) and international like Credit/Debit Card.
Winner’s Magic has taken this into account and therefore offer payment methods from the most well-known banking methods as well as some local banking methods. The minimum deposit is €10, and several currencies are accepted. For example, players can deposit Euros, Krona (Norwegian), as well as Canadian dollars and Pounds. The deposits almost exclusively take place instantly.
Once the wagering requirements have been met and the player is ready to withdraw their winnings, there are several methods which can be used. The most common thing is that the method used to deposit is used to withdraw, the only exception to this is when the deposit method is not available to withdraw then the player can choose to for example have the money transferred via Bank Transfer. There is a pending time of 24 hours on all withdrawals. The maximum withdrawal is €7.000/month and the minimum withdrawal for most methods is €10. The limit is in our opinion slightly low but understandable due to the newness of this online casino. There are no fees on withdrawal which is something we appreciate.
We believe that any casino that tries to make their banking methods as wide and accepting as possible have their customer’s best at heart, as can be seen by Winner’s Magic. Unfortunately, we do find that the withdrawal times are slightly slow as the fastest way to withdraw funds still requires three business days. This is not a problem limited to this casino but with most and is something we would love to see the industry change.
Another point which we find great about this online casino is that it implements a 128-bit SSL encryption key on all sensitive data. This means that whatever private information is sent by the customer to the casino is protected and safeguarded from unauthorized eyes. The casino also works hard to prevent fraud and therefore can demand additional verification of identity from the customer. In the case of Sweden, all customers must verify having reached the legal gambling age of 18. The customer will then have up to 30 days to verify their age if this is not done within the time limit the customer’s account will be shut down. In our opinion, any casino that goes the length to abide by the rules and regulations set up by different countries to safeguard the players, are good casinos.

bCasino Full Review

bCasino was founded in 2019, and it is among the few recently founded online casinos offering transparent terms and conditions, attractive bonuses, and a plethora of titles that meet the ever-growing players’ demands for entertaining and profitable games. Let’s see how it stacks up against the competition.

bCasino Layout and Navigation

bCasino game content is distributed across a .co.uk domain accepting UK players, and a .com domain where players from all the other eligible countries can play. You might find some differences in the design, but in general, the site is user-friendly and easy to navigate through.
The main tabs containing the game categories are founded at the top of the main page. On the right side of your screen, you will see a Help tab. Promotions are on the left. All additional pages such as the Bonus T&C, Banking, and Contact are to be found at the bottom of the main page.

bCasino Welcome Bonus

Depending on the country you reside in, you can claim different bonuses.
UK players are eligible for claiming a welcome bonus of up to €1200 upon the first three deposits they make. The bonus funds become withdrawable once the 30x wagering requirement is met (deposit + bonus).
To qualify for the bonus, the minimum deposit you have to make is €20. The max amount you can cash out from the bonus is €5000, which is pretty generous given the fact that many casinos limit the max bonus cashout to €500.
Note that only players who deposit via debit/ credit card, are eligible for claiming the bonus.
bCasino runs various weekly promotions for UK players. For example, if you deposit €10 on Tuesday, you get a total of €25 to play with and so forth. So make sure you log into your account regularly and check the ongoing promotions.
As for players residing outside the UK, the welcome bonus is comprised of up to €1200 upon the first three deposits + 100 free spins on selected slots. The wagering requirement is the same – 30x your deposit + bonus amount. Only debit/ credit card depositors are eligible for claiming the bonus. Similar to the UK version, the .com version offers different daily and weekly promotions to new and existing players.
Free spins are a subject to a x25 wagering. The max amount you can cash out from the free spins bonus is €100.

bCasino Game Library

The first notable difference between the .co.uk and the .com version is that only UK players have access to live casino games. The live casino is powered by Evolution and offers more than 50 game variations.
The slots we recommend to the UK players are Volcano Eruption Extreme, Money Meat, Mighty Wilds, Bork the Berzerker, Platooners, Winning Wolf. There are also five roulette variations – Roulette with Track, Roulette Master, Astro Roulette, Double Zero Roulette, European Roulette, French Roulette, as well as five Бlackjack variations – Blackjack Atlantic City Single Hand and Multi Hand, Blackjack Monte Carlo Single Hand and Multihand, and Double Exposure Blackjack. Despite the lack of live casino, the game catalogue of the .com version is significantly larger featuring well over 1000 slots and table games.

Game Suppliers

bCasino seems determined to stand out from the hundreds of mainstream casinos. So, it provides games courtesy of Booming, Betsoft, NextGen, Fugaso, Elk, Playson, Lightning Box, BetDigital, Wazdan, Ainsworth, Irondog, Heap, 1×2.
Please note that the games, developed by some of the above-mentioned game suppliers, might not be playable from your jurisdiction.

Deposits and Withdrawals

The minimum amount you can deposit at bCasino is €20. the minimum withdrawal is €20, too.
The UK players have a bit limited choice of deposit options, but still, the available ones should suffice. They can make fast and secure deposits and withdrawals via Visa, Maestro, Neteller, Skrill, ecopayZ, instant banking, pay by mobile, paysafecard.
Players from the other eligible countries have twice as many payment options at their disposal – Visa, Maestro, Mastercard, Astropay, Euteller, Giropay, Sofort, EPS, Interac, Trustly, Online Uberweiser, Neteller, Skrill, Ecopayz, Muchbetter, Upaycard, Neosurf, Cashlib, Flexepin, paysafecard, zimpler, siru mobile, local/ international bank transfer.
The casino management aims at processing all withdrawal requests within 3 business days, although it may take up to 7 business days for the money to show up into your bank account. It depends on the payment method you settle for as well as the weekend and holiday closures of your bank.

Security and Regulation

bCasino.co.uk is managed by GS Technology Limited that holds a UKGC license. bCasino.com is operated by Green Feather Online Limited. The latter is a MGA licensee. In other words, bCasino is overseen by the two strictest online gambling watchdogs, and its legitimacy can hardly be questioned. In case you are mistreated, your winnings are unfairly confiscated, or you fall victim of tricky bonus terms, you can submit a complaint and count on authorities to investigate the matter and protect your interests.

Customer Support

The bCasino customer support is attentive to players’ needs and all customer care agents we talked to were genuinely wiling to help. For now, they are available via live chat between 10am and 11pm, although once the casino attracts a larger player base, the working hours will probably be extended.

bCasino Mobile

bCasino games are tailored to run seamlessly on mobile devices. For best performance, you are advised to update your browser and OS to the latest version and make sure you have unlimited data plan / strong Wi-Fi signal.

Casumo Review

Casumo is a top-quality online casino and sportsbook, with a strong reputation for delivering excellent customer service, offering a rich array of sports to choose from, and securing some super competitive deals and offers for their players. Previously best known for their casino games, the brand signed an agreement with sportsbook supplier Kambi in 2018 to expand their offerings, and this has really taken off amongst sports betting fans.
Since its initial inception in 2012, Casumo has worked hard to establish a strong presence within the world of sports betting. The results speak for themselves; the site was the winner of the eGaming Review (EGR) Rising Star Award in 2013, just a year after their launch, and took the trophy for Innovation in Casino for 2014 and 2015. 2015 also saw their mobile efforts acknowledged as they pocketed Mobile Casino Product of the Year, and 2017 was another double bonus, with nods for Affiliate Program and Mobile Operator. This victory for their mobile operation was repeated in 2018, and they finished 2019 on a high thanks to the International Gaming Award for Best Online Casino Operator.

Casumo Sportsbook Welcome Offer & Promotions

As any casino or sportsbook fan will tell you, the secret to success for many of these sites is the way they reward their customers. Promotions and deals are essential for getting new players through the door, rewarding and recognizing loyalty, and giving long-term faithful fans a reason to stay and play.
The Welcome Bonus is perhaps the most crucial element to this offering, as it is often the first interaction a player will have with the site – and it is essential that their first impression is a great one!
Casumo keeps things simple, but appealing, with a free £10 bet awarded to all new players who have already wagered an initial £10 bet. In essence, this doubles the deposit and is a great welcome for all newbies. To qualify, customers must place a bet of £10 minimum, on any pre-match or in-play sports market, at odds of at least ⅗. Once the initial qualifying bet is settled, the account will be automatically credited with the Free Bet, and this can be used on sports and games to boost the chances of a healthy profit! Both the qualifying and the free bet must be placed within 35 days of registration to the site, and there is then a 35-day window in which to settle the qualifying bet.
This Free Bet is a super generous deal, which is sure to be a real incentive to new players searching for a lucrative deal. The site also offers a range of regular deals, promotions, and offers, especially during major sporting competitions and tournaments.
These can range from free bets, as seen in the welcome offer, to matched bets, reload bonuses, and even the chance to grab great cash prizes. It is crucial that players check in with the site regularly, as some of these offers are time-sensitive, and there is a risk of missing out if you don’t move fast.
As well as offering great bonuses to new visitors, sportsbooks and casinos must work hard to acknowledge more long-term customers and those who remain consistently loyal to the site. This is usually achieved through a VIP or loyalty program, and these schemes are a great way to offer exclusive, members-only discounts, games, and deals.
At present, Casumo runs a fantastic VIP scheme that sees players given a chance to ‘Level Up’ as they play games on the site. This offer is targeted mainly at the casino element of the site, where different games allow players to travel to different planets, grabbing valuable experience as they go. Leveling up unlocks new perks and bonuses, such as deposit extras and even cash bonuses, until you reach the pinnacle of Casumo success: the coveted black belt.
Trophies are also a valuable aspect of the site and can be achieved through actions such as winning three times in a row or enjoying a particularly big win. The VIP scheme does not currently seem to have many perks for the sportsbook side of the site, but it is highly likely that this aspect will become more incorporated as it grows and develops.

The Product, Sports, and Markets

One of the significant advantages of Casumo is the vast range of choices available to players. There is a wide variety of sports on offer, including Olympic and championship events, American Football, Aussie Rules Football, and traditional football. Athletics, beach volleyball and golf are also popular, as are racquet sports including badminton, squash, tennis and table tennis. Water sports such as swimming and surfing sit alongside ball sports, including basketball, netball, baseball, rugby and handball, and fans of the frozen will enjoy winter sports and ice hockey matches. Also in the mix are darts, snooker, MMA, motorsports, boxing, and curling, as well as classic favourites greyhound and horse racing – there is something to suit every interest, however niche!
Live betting is a massive part of the industry, and Casumo recognises this by making it a key feature of its offering. Fans can place bets at any point during the match to place a bet, helping you stay totally up to date and accurate as the magic unfolds before your eyes. A single button takes you to every match currently in play, meaning you can get to where you need to be faster, and increasing your chances of success. This aspect is a huge bonus for the site and helps them to stand with some of the major names in the business.

eSports

eSports is an area that is rapidly growing in popularity, and so it comes as no surprise that Casumo has decided to grab a piece of what could be a very profitable pie. As the name suggests, eSports refers to ‘electronic sports’ and refers to a type of console or computer game played by individuals or teams, usually over the Internet. The size and scale of these events mean that they can attract significant sponsorship deals from a host of top companies, and as a result, they have the potential to be extremely lucrative.
Casumo have ensured that they do have something to offer every type of customer, and currently offer the following games under their eSports banner: Call of Duty, CS: GO, Dota 2, Dragon Ball, FIFA, Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm, League of Legends, Overwatch, PUBG, Rocket League, Starcraft 2, Street Fighter, Super Smash Bros and Tekken.
In addition to offering a host of some of the most popular games on the market, Casumo also offer great deals, promotions and offers on major events and tournaments – make sure you are checking in with the site to avoid missing out on a great opportunity.
