Cherry Red Casino is perhaps one of the most attractive online casinos currently in operation. The site is laid out beautifully, but it’s also in “flash,” meaning that it may be slow to load on some web browsers and non-responsive all together on others. However, the folks at Cherry Red still do what they can to make a player’s gaming experience the best it can be.

Their motto is “Excellence is a mix of incredible entertainment, unparalleled service and pure, unadulterated fun.” If it sounds over-embellished to you, then you have the right idea of Cherry Red Casino. They aim to be uber-classy - much like a classy casino setup in Vegas. The casino uses the Real Time Gaming Software platform.

The casino employs a strong measure of security, and their payout rate is at the high end of 90%. They aren’t catering to a lot of people in the world, hence their primarily English software and site. There’s also some decent support at the casino, even if the options aren’t that varied.

You can contact Cherry Red Casino via email or any of three toll-free telephone numbers: UK Freephone, International, and Canada/US. The staff are friendly and they’re available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

You can choose to play on Cherry Red via their downloadable casino or the instant flash version. Both versions carry some good games that are sure to keep you entertained during your stay.

For starters, the casino has a ton of slot games that offer a chance to win some big jackpots. There’s also different types of Roulette, Craps, Sic Bo, Bonus Bingo, Keno, Baccarat, Blackjack, Caribbean Hold’em Poker, Stud, Let ‘em Ride, Pontoon, War, Red Dog, Video Poker, and more.

There’s a huge list of promotions at Cherry Red, pretty much giving them the edge in terms of bonuses offered around the web. The initial deposit bonus gives you up to $777 free, which is broken down into two sections. The first deposit gives you a 100% match up to $377, and the second deposit gets you a 100% match of up to $400. They also have a Blackjack Special Bonus, Slots Special Bonus, Video Poker Bonus, and a handful of Weekly and Weekend Bonuses to round it out.

The banking options at Cherry Red Casino are pretty straightforward. Before you start, however, it’s always a good idea to check in on the casino site and the transaction method’s site to ensure you’re allowed to deposit and withdraw with the method you want.

You can choose from Visa/MasterCard, eWalletXpress, Diners Club, AMEX, Neteller, Net Money, JCB, Click2Pay, UseMyWallet, Eco Card, Moneybookers, and Bank Transfer.

Pros: The site has a fairly decent selection of games. Their welcome bonus is very good and the weekly promotions constantly change. Also, US players are still allowed to participate in the game.

Cons: The game selection seems to be missing something with the absence of huge progressive jackpots. The support could be a little better as well, and the flash homepage might throw you off your game if you have an outdated browser.
