Coolbet
Coolbet is an award-winning relatively new casino & sportsbook known for transparency (they famously display their operational profit margin to users). The casino has a broad selection of slots and live games and its unique selling point is its emphasis on local markets (e.g. offering Nordic-specific games) and honesty. It provides fast withdrawals and an active community feel.
Bonuses & Promotions
Welcome Bonus
Ontario: 100% up to $250 (casino) with 30x wagering on bonus + deposit – fairly reasonable. In other markets, similar ~100% up to €200 plus possibly free spins. They also have separate sports welcome offers, but usually a player can only claim one.
Ongoing Promotions
Frequent free spin campaigns (often promoting new games), sports-casino cross promos (e.g. bet on Champions League, get casino spins), and a straightforward loyalty scheme (Coolbet Loyalty) where players get points for bets that can be redeemed for bonus money or swag. They also hold community tournaments and fun social media contests given their community-oriented approach.
Quick Info
Withdrawal Times
Fast, especially for bank transfers in Europe (they use rapid open banking tech). Many players report receiving winnings within hours via bank and even faster via e-wallet. They take pride in quick payouts and often publish their average withdrawal times.

Unique transparency: the "Coolbet Opens" figure on site showing how much profit the house made that day (no other casino does this). Slick mobile app with integrated sports and casino. They impose relatively low max bet limits on unverified new users to encourage responsible gambling and safe expansion. 24/7 support including a visible presence of staff in community forums. It was founded by industry veterans in Scandinavia and has a very customer-first philosophy.
User Reputation
Very high in regions where they operate. Many players and even industry peers praise Coolbet for doing things differently (honesty, not focusing only on VIPs, etc.). They won multiple awards for customer service and innovation. Players consistently mention fast payouts and fair terms as reasons they trust Coolbet. It's considered a breath of fresh air in markets where it competes.
