Gambino Slots is a social casino that provides free, fun games on desktop and mobile devices. While I didn’t have the same kind of experience that I’d be afforded at Chumba or McLuck, you can spin through 150 thematic slots and jackpots using G-Coins

There are no opportunities for sweepstakes contestants, but low-stakes players and those who primarily focus on entertainment are sure to love Gambino Slots. I wish they had tables or live games to accompany their slot library. Here are some additional pros and cons to consider:

Gambino Slots Social Casino Overview

Gambino Slots operates legally in all fifty U.S. states and the District of Columbia. As a social casino, it doesn’t host sweepstakes contests or enable players to win real-money prizes. This site opened in 2015, and it’s still making strides with unique games and features. 

While I was bummed to notice that I couldn’t participate in sweepstakes contests, I had lots of fun playing Gambino’s slots with G-Coins. I could live without the flurry of pop-ups every time I sign in, but they’ve gone the extra mile to host numerous discounts for new and existing users. 

Like Gold Coins at competing casinos, G-Coins have no redemption value. They’re used only for entertainment purposes. For brevity’s sake, we’ll be calling them Gold Coins (or GC) from now on. 

I must say off the bat – you won’t have access to many of their games as a new player. I had to work my way through numerous levels before viewing the majority of their slots. As a new player, I was able to play just six machines

A few more titles opened up at Level 10, but you have to reach Level 30 before playing 100+ of their best games. It’s fairly easy to climb the ranks, but I don’t like feeling blocked off at the start. 

In my experience, Gambino Slots rewards players who are willing to “stick it out.” Their online casino games and promotions begin to pack some weight once you’re past Level 10. You won’t have access to everything this social casino offers right away, you need to stick with this one for the long haul.

💰 Bonuses and Promotions Available 

Bonuses were the highlight of my Gambino Slots experience. I loved browsing all the available contests, but I had to reach Level 8 before I could see their Leaderboards. They feature comprehensive VIP benefits, allow Facebook friends to send and receive GC, and promise endless GC discounts. 

Let’s take a closer look at Gambino Slots’ latest promotions:

I received 100,000 Gold Coins as soon as I signed up and verified my email address. I then got 20 free spins every day for ten days in a row. In total, I claimed 200 free spins on select games. 

While I played Nutcracker Nights and Luxury Living, there’s no guarantee you’ll be credited with spins to use on the same games. They’re subject to change at the casino’s discretion, so there’s never a dull moment. I found a “High Roller Room,” which requires a $99.99 purchase to unlock. 

Their first purchase bonus also goes up to 500% if you’re willing to fork over big bucks. I didn’t appreciate how most of their promotions are locked behind a particular account level. The Piggy Bank, which allowed me to save GC on losing spins, only appeared for me after hitting Level 8. 

I collected 900 GC every three hours by clicking “G-Reels Bonus” at the bottom center of their website. I also spun their G-Wheel immediately after logging into my account each day. They’ll likely update these amounts soon, but I took a swing at 1 million GC per spin (to no avail sadly!)

Because Gambino Slots is not a sweepstakes casino, there are no mail-in opportunities. After I clicked “Settings” next to my inbox, I found an option to link my Facebook account. If you have FB friends that also play at Gambino Slots, you can send and receive GC among one another. 

Although I didn’t find any sort of referral bonus on the website, they routinely give away free GC on Facebook. You have to link your FB account if you’d like to participate. After I clicked the link, I was automatically signed into my Gambino Slots account, where I noticed an extra 10,000 GC. 

Last but not least, Gambino’s nine-tiered VIP Program turns up the heat for active players. This program operates independently of your account level, which dictates how many games you can play on their website. Still, I earned both Level Points and VIP Points while playing slots.

Level-up bonuses, enhanced G-Wheel prize amounts, various gift multipliers, and free coins are credited to VIP players starting at Topaz.

Meanwhile Sapphire, Emerald, Ruby, Diamond, Trillion Diamond, Royal Diamond, Black Diamond and Walk of Fame players receive increasingly tempting perks. 

If you max out their VIP benefits, you can expect 500% more GC on every purchase. You’ll also get 40x more loyalty points than the average player, benefit from a 9x gift multiplier, claim 500% more in G-Wheelz Rewards, unlock their “High Roller Room,” and get a 300% Level-Up Bonus. 

I’m diving deeper into Gambino Slots’ first purchase discounts momentarily. 

Coin Package Assessment

gambino slots coin package

There’s no requirement to purchase Gold Coins, as I received free GC at every turn. However, it’s a nice bonus to have if you’re running low. I was able to purchase 3,840,000 GC, claim 142 Loyalty Points, earn 8 free spins on Poseidon: Road to Atlantis, and get three chips for $2.99. 

This is advertised as a 300% discount. At the top end of the spectrum, players can buy up to 1,012,000,000 GC for $99.99. This bundle unlocks their “High Roller Room,” comes with 40k Loyalty Points, gives you 50 free spins on the same slot, and credits you with 2 golden chips. 

I noticed that I collected a “G-Stamp” with my first purchase. You’ll collect one G-Stamp per GC purchase. After you get five stamps, you’ll claim a reward matching your “average purchases.” I bought 3.8 million GC five times in a row and received 3.8 million GC as a free G-Stamp reward.

I clicked “Buy” at the top of Gambino Slots’ website to launch their GC purchase menu. They were offering GC discounts ranging up to 1,000% at the time of my review, but they don’t use Sweeps Coins to facilitate gameplay. Instead, you’ll buy GC and receive freebies as a bonus. 

Gambino takes VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, Discover, JCB, Diners Club International, PayPal, or UnionPay as fodder for GC purchases. I downloaded their mobile app on iOS to find Apple Pay as a listed purchase option. Similarly, they accept Google Pay on Android smartphones/devices. 

There’s no way to redeem prizes here, but you can buy “Boosters” that allow you to level up the ranks more quickly than usual. Achieving higher levels will unlock more games, give you access to site-wide competitions, and enrich your experience as you take advantage of loyalty benefits. 

I clicked “G-Coins” and chose the $2.99 price indicator next to their 300% first purchase bundle. 

Gambino Slots gcoins order summary

I typed my email address and zip code before clicking “Continue.” Optionally, you can have new promotions sent to your email by ticking the checkbox. I didn’t take this step, personally. 

Gambino Slots card details

I entered my card number, full name, expiration date, and CVV code before clicking “Pay $2.99.” You can also purchase coins with PayPal. I received my coins immediately, and I was able to use my free spins without delay. Loyalty points were also credited to my XP balance. 

There’s no option to redeem prizes here, meaning that I didn’t have to complete KYC verification at any point. Linking my Facebook profile gave me 2,000 GC on top of 200 VIP points. You must connect your Facebook profile to participate in social media giveaways and send gifts to friends. 

Review of Game Selection & Playing Experience

Gambino Slots produces all their games in-house, which is great for players who want fresh and exciting reels. On the flip side of that coin, I didn’t find any popular titles from well-known gaming providers like Pragmatic Play or BetSoft. I counted 150 reels, but I could only play six off the bat. 

gambino slots games in house

They don’t rely on search filters to categorize their library, as most slots aren’t viewable until you reach Level 30 anyway. I had access to the following six machines as a brand-new player: 

  • Nutcracker Nights 
  • Luxury Living 
  • Liberty Eagle
  • Quest to the North Pole
  • Poseidon: Road to Atlantis 
  • Cherry Bombs 

After reaching Level 10, I gained access to another six titles: 

  • Thor’s Riches 
  • Mission Mars 
  • Enchanted Orbs
  • Rise of the Gladiator 
  • Lucky Spells 
  • It’s A Family Thing 

I tried to check out their “High Roller Room,” but I was informed that I’d need to spend $99.99 on GC purchases to qualify. If you have the juice to get your foot in the door, you’ll claim 552M Gold Coins and 40,000 Loyalty Points to match. High rollers gain access to more tournaments. 

gambino slots higher stakes spins

However, none of the games in the High Roller Room are different or unique. Instead, it simply enables higher-stakes spins (and potential GC rewards) across their existing collection. I had no trouble navigating their library using the left and right arrow keys on either side of the screen. 

gambino slots cozy graphics

First up, I played Nutcracker Nights for 250 GC per spin. I enjoyed cozy graphics and holiday tunes with each new spin, but I wasn’t able to find the game’s RTP anywhere. This became a frequent problem as I unlocked more games during the week I spent testing Gambino Slots. 

gambino slots entry level games

I also had trouble telling some of their (entry-level) games apart. I played Luxury Living next, but I didn’t see much of a difference aside from the background change. I’m not sure if this is a huge issue once you hit Level 30, but I didn’t like their entry-level games from a graphics standpoint. 

Tables and live dealer games are missing from their selection, so what you see is what you get. 

I didn’t stick around long enough to unlock the majority of their library, but there’s next to no real variety for absolute beginners. It’s tough to get started on Gambino if you’re not looking to spend money on coin bundles. 

gambino slots free coins

Still, it’s not all bad at Gambino Slots. Frequent bonuses kept my bankroll filled with GC all week long, ensuring that I never felt pressured to make a purchase. Pop-ups aside, there are plenty of free coins readily available if you know how to look for them. Facebook is a great place to start! 

Player Reports

I did my homework to research Gambino Slots’ reputation according to real players on Reddit, AskGamblers, and Trustpilot. Here’s what verified users have to say about their experiences: 

TrustScore 4.0 stars (Excellent) 
Reddit Opinion
App Store Rating4.7 out of 5 stars (3.4k+ ratings) 
Google Play Rating4.7 out of 5 stars (45.6k+ reviews) 
AskGamblers Unresolved ComplaintsNo Complaints 

Trustpilot TrustScore 

I opened Gambino Slots’ TrustPilot profile, which the company has both claimed and verified. If I’m being honest, thirteen reviews aren’t satisfactory when it comes to getting the inside scoop at a casino. Still, they’ve earned a 4.0 out of 5 star TrustScore dating back to September 2023. 

Players praise their unique selection of games, prompt customer service replies, and intuitive UI for desktop and mobile devices. Less-than-satisfied players report laggy gaming on desktop, but I didn’t experience this issue personally. 

I’d like to see more reviews on TrustPilot before making a snap decision, but everything checks out at first glance. 

Reddit Analysis

I scoured Reddit for testimonials about Gambino Slots, but I came up dry.

Left with no options, I turned my attention to Gambino Slots’ App Store reviews for more details. Their App Store and Google Play reviews are objectively stellar, clocking in at 4.7 out of 5 stars on both platforms. 

Again, players are impressed with their no-deposit bonus and unique game selection. I enjoyed using their downloadable app on iOS, so I can see why it’s gotten so popular. I checked Google Play for a broader overview of the mobile platform, and I came up with similarly positive results. 

They don’t have any reported complaints on AskGamblers, which is another green flag.

Many critical reviews fixate on the fact that Gambino Slots is strictly a social casino, meaning it’s not possible to win prizes. While I empathize with their frustration, it’s not fair to criticize a casino that makes this clear ahead of time. I was never under the impression that I could win real cash.

📱Mobile Apps & Play

Operating System App Availability
iOS (Apple)
Google Play (Android)

I checked the App Store and Google Play to look for a downloadable Gambino Slots app. They cater to mobile slots enthusiasts on both platforms with a stellar iOS/Android interface. I had no trouble adjusting to their menus, and I enjoyed similarly speedy loading times across the board. 

The only thing I didn’t like is that you have to hold your phone sideways to scroll through games and place spins. It’s difficult to engage in one-handed play, but I didn’t experience any lag on their mobile app. Unfortunately, constant pop-ups feel incessant on smaller and larger screens alike. 

To end this section on a bright note, their desktop and mobile interface are practically identical.

Gambino Slots is entirely safe and legitimate. They’ve operated under the direction of Spiral Interactive Ltd. since 2015. At the time of my review, they had 897k Facebook followers and more than 1 million app downloads on Google Play. They’re also available in all fifty states. 

Because Gambino Slots is strictly a social casino, they don’t host sweepstakes contests or offer prizes in any capacity. You can purchase Gold Coins using secure payment methods, including PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, VISA, MasterCard, Discover, JCB, UnionPay, and Diners Club. 

While I dislike how most games are stuck behind VIP levels, you can freely climb the ranks of their VIP Program by taking advantage of wheel spins and other no-cost bonuses. Buying GC and “Boosters” makes it easier to level up, but you’re not required to purchase coins. 

All players must be 18 to sign up here, but they don’t conduct KYC tests. There’s no information about RNG testing available on their website, either. I tried checking the individual RTP of each game, but it’s not shown on my end as a new player. 

Additionally, they don’t have a Responsible Gaming Policy in place. I couldn’t find a way to set GC purchase limits, implement daily time limits, request a short break, or self-exclude.

Customer Support Experience

Customer support is a weak link at Gambino Slots. I wasn’t able to get in touch via live chat or phone. While I tried reaching out via Facebook, I didn’t get a reply. They have barebones FAQ assistance and a ticket request form, which I found by opening “Settings” and clicking Support.

I located their hotline by reading their Privacy Policy. You can email support@gambinoslot.com with detailed inquiries if you don’t feel like using their ticket form. I got a response via ticket just 3 hours after sending my first message, and I enjoyed similar response speeds via direct email. 

Most casinos force players to wait between 6-12 hours for email or ticket-based support, so I appreciate Gambino Slots’ efficiency. I enjoyed quick and knowledgeable replies from helpful reps at every turn. Still, I wish they offered a way to converse with the same agents in real-time.

Final Verdict

I enjoyed my time at Gambino Slots, but it took me a few days to see more than six casino games after logging in. Unlike traditional casinos, which present all their available games immediately, I had to “unlock” hundreds of games at Gambino Slots, which presents an element of achievement. 

Levels go quickly, so I never felt stuck in one place for too long, but there’s no denying they give an unfair edge to paying customers. Paid boosters expedite the process of achieving new levels and players receive free “Loyalty Points” with most GC purchases. 

Tables and live games are missing from their library, but Gambino Slots unapologetically caters to social slot players. It’s quite literally in the name, so I can’t be too angry about this. 

Of course, it’s worth remembering that Gambino Slots is strictly a social casino. They don’t offer sweepstakes contests, meaning that it’s not possible to win cash prizes or gift cards. 

Contests, promotional features, and most fun things about Gambino only become available past Level 8. Most games unlock at Level 30, so you’ll have to grind it out before reaping the benefits of your continued loyalty. Still, this approach appeals to those with a competitive streak.
