TigerGaming has been part of the online poker world for a long time. It has remained one of the busiest poker sites in the world since its launch in 1999. A massive player base and substantial bonuses are only some of the many reasons to give this site a chance.

Poker formats that attract the majority of players and keep them interested in TigerGaming are Omaha and Texas Hold’em. We also had a lot of fun with their Sit and Go tournaments.

Another feature we liked was the Buddy List that lets you create friendships in the online poker community. Once people are on your buddy list, you can invite them to play with you or chat while you wait for your turn.

Bonuses

Back in the day, poker sites were not known for giving massive sign-up bonuses to new players. Even if a welcome gift was offered, it was rarely something to write home about. In the last few years, though, there has been a significant change in that trend, and many online poker operators now offer substantial bonuses to new customers.

TigerGaming is one of the better examples of this practice, as it offers a very generous match deposit bonus up to C$2,500 on your first deposit. It is important to remember that you are not required to deposit the maximum sum to receive the bonus. As long as you deposit at least C$50, you’ll receive a 100% match for that sum, but the more you put in, the bigger the bonus.

Game Selection

The selection of games in this online casino is pretty good. If you like to play games other than poker, you’ll be happy to know that there are many roulette and blackjack variations, as well as more than a dozen other games. The two standout poker games for us were Poker3 and Oasis Poker, titles you cannot see in just any casino.

We found Poker 3 to be particularly entertaining. It is a game in which you play against an AI opponent, and it has elements of Casino Hold’em, Caribbean Stud and Texas Hold’em. In terms of stakes, most games are available for as little as C$1 — good news for players on a budget.

Mobile Casino

Both the casino and the sportsbook can be accessed via mobile devices. In terms of navigation, the UI on the mobile version is set up quite well, with the main options pinned at the top, including Classic Casino, Live Casino, Sportsbook, Live Sportsbook, and Horses.

When it comes to poker, there’s a downloadable app. The easiest way to find it is to access the website from your computer, navigate to the Poker section, and find the Mobile tab. The app is compatible with all modern Android and iOS devices.

Payment Methods and Withdrawal Times

TigerGaming features a wide variety of banking options. This applies to both deposits and withdrawals. The Payment Methods page on the website clearly states that several banking methods are available, such as credit cards and cryptocurrencies, as well as e-wallets like QBDirect, Interac, and EcoPayz.

Crypto is the way to go, in our opinion, because there are no fees involved and the transaction time is, by far, the fastest. Also, withdrawal and deposit limits are the highest with this method.

Cashouts are processed during business hours from Monday to Friday, so if you’d like to cash out during the weekend, you’ll be forced to wait. This is a bit disappointing but amounts to nothing more than a minor inconvenience in the end.

Customer Support

If you’re looking to get in touch with TigerGaming, there are a few options. You can always use email to reach the team behind the site. Their response time will depend on the amount of traffic they have to deal with when you contact them. We found that they typically respond within a few hours.

If you’re in a hurry and would like a more immediate response, there’s the Live Chat option. This feature becomes available once you create an account and make your first deposit. There’s also an online FAQ section we recommend going through first since there’s a good chance you’ll find your answers there.

Security and Fairness

TigerGaming has been around for a while. Over the years, it has developed a pretty good reputation in terms of fairness and security. Common sense dictates that there’s no way this company could have remained in the business, let alone stayed so successful, for so long, if it were not running a legitimate operation.

A link to Curacao eGaming at the bottom of the website proves that TigerGaming holds a gambling licence from this jurisdiction, so legitimacy is not something you need to worry about when it comes to this online casino.

Verdict

We enjoyed our time playing in TigerGaming. The user interface is well-designed, providing you with quick access to tournaments and various games. There are table customization options available as well, allowing you to make yourself comfortable with the background, cards, and more. Less experienced players are also welcome since the site provides a decent range of buy-in amounts.

It is always nice to see a poker provider that allows cryptocurrency deposits, especially if it means lower fees and faster transaction times. Even if you don’t usually use this method of payment, the fact that it exists proves that this website is no joke.

Another thing we enjoyed was the fact that TigerGaming has both a downloadable app and an instant-play version you can access directly from your browser. That, together with the mobile poker app, is a clear sign that this poker operator cares very much about providing its players with multiple options.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tiger Gaming

Can I play at multiple tables simultaneously?

TigerGaming Poker allows players to play at more than one table at the same time. If you don’t like waiting and want to level up quickly, you can join up to eight tables at a time, which is quite impressive.

Is there a loyalty program available for frequent players?

TigerGaming has a VIP program in place that rewards players for their buy-ins. Players receive a point for each cent that goes into the rake. Also, for every C$1 they spend on tournament fees, players earn 100 points. These points accumulate on your account and determine your VIP level.

What is the minimum deposit?

You need to deposit at least C$10 for e-wallets or C$20 for debit/credit cards. If you decide to use a wire transfer, you’ll need to deposit at least C$100. Keep in mind that to receive the welcome bonus, your first deposit has to be C$50 or more and the casino will match it 100% up to C$2,500.
