Operator review
Bovada Casino review
Licence: Curacao · trading since 2011
Bovada has served US players since 2011 with a sportsbook, casino and poker room on one account under a Curacao licence. Its welcome is a modest match with one of the lowest playthroughs in our US set.

The welcome offer, worked through
Deposit $100 at Bovada and the 100% match adds $100, for a balance of $200. The playthrough of 25x applies to bonus and deposit together ($200), so the bonus converts to cash after $5,000 of qualifying bets.
To reach the $1,000 cap you would need to deposit $1,000; the turnover then scales the same way.
On slots returning 96%, the expected cost of $5,000 in spins is about $200 — compare that with the $100 bonus before you opt in.
