J9 Casino Review
Westward Way Tech N.V. owns and operates J9. From our research, this is the same company that runs the renowned Asian K8 gaming site. Graphically, they both appear similar. Google tells us that this hub got up and running in 2012, but we are a little doubtful about this launch date. Another possible establishment date we found was 2021, and we find that one more believable.
This platform is available to players from a wealth of countries, and it has an Indian version that caters to players from the Cricket-crazed nation. J9 technically accepts four cryptos. It has a cashback scheme, an average sportsbook, provably fair games, slots, live tables, and staking options. Argentine football legend Gabriel Batistuta, a name that all footie fans know, is J9’s brand ambassador.
First Impressions
The design of the international version of the J9 website is slick. A space-themed image acts as a backdrop to some vibrant images fitted in traditional online casino organizational patterns. If the site interface displays in Chinese upon access, scroll down to the footer and switch it over the English, using the option in the lower right corner of your screen. You can also do so via the planet icon in the top right.
Registration here is simple, and it only requires that you enter a username and password. You can input your email and verify your account once you officially get assigned one.
J9 has social media profiles on virtually all the top networks. So, you can check out the J9 Discord channel and hang out there for a bit, asking whatever tickles your fancy regarding this crypto gaming hub.
Games offered by J9
The J9 games page states that over seven hundred gaming products are on hand on this platform. Given that this is a Curacao-licensed crypto casino, we can say that this is an underwhelming figure. Most hubs from this platform category that we have reviewed have a few thousand titles in their gaming arsenal.
What is interesting about J9 is that it offers some novel provably fair picks that we have not seen elsewhere. Eight of these come from FunFair, while Rock Paper Scissors is a Player Gaming creation. Of the crypto staples, only Crash is available from this genre, and you can find these nine options under the Blockchain Games category.
The reel-spinners here get supplied by ten providers, Relax, Pragmatic Play, MG, YOPLay, Hacksaw, Booming Games, Nolimit City, BGaming, PlayStar, and Asia Gaming. Pragmatic Play dominates this section with over one hundred and fifty titles, followed by PlayStar, which also brings over a hundred of its products onto J9’s virtual gaming floor. You can search for games on this site or filter them by their provider. That is all. BGaming and Relax provide the few RNG-fueled table choices here.
Upon further investigation, we discovered that in specific markets, Microgaming, Play’n GO, NetEnt, and products from other developers are also available at J9. Also, the platform has proprietary Indian card game’s for residents of the planet’s second most populous nation.
The J9 live casino lobby offers streaming tables from Asia Gaming and Evolution. The unique thing about the games from these two providers at J9 is that they are mainly ones targeting Asian players. Sic Bo, Bull Bull, and Dragon Tiger are the choices this lobby most pushes, and there are none of Evolution’s game show products in sight.
J9 Sports Betting
As you can see on the website’s homepage and marketing materials, this hub is FIBA’s official global betting partner. For those living under a rock, FIBA is the International Basketball Federation. Hence, once we read this, before visiting this platform, we set our expectations high regarding the J9 sportsbook. It did not wow us, but it offers some super competitive odds, live betting, and a wide range of virtual sporting events.
In all honesty, the sports market selection here is not as vast compared to some of the other internet sportsbooks we have analyzed, and the design of the sports betting page is a bit ole-timey. Still, you can make some nifty combo bets on this section of the J9 platform. That said, we are not too sure we would recommend this site to sports betting fanatics, as better options exist. Okay, maybe that is not accurate for bettors from distinct Asian countries.
Easy Access
We found no issues with the J9 mobile site. It is a mirror copy of the responsive version of the desktop one. So, you can open the J9 crypto casino in your preferred desktop browser and resize it to fit your phone’s display, and you will see how this platform will look on your smartphone. Allegedly, there are J9 Android and iOS apps that you can download from a dedicated app page on the casino website. We tried this but failed to install this software on our Android phone, as we keep running into an error that caused our mobile browser to crash. Maybe you can test this out and post in the comments if these are real pieces of dedicated J9 mobile software or just shortcuts to the site.
Design-wise, everything looks good and is appropriately sized for a smaller screen, and the mobile load times were acceptable. Navigation was also easy, so we had no gripes playing on the go at J9.
Deposits & Withdrawals
J9 accepts the following cryptos:
- USDT (TRC-20 & ERC-20)
- USDC (TRC-20)
- Bitcoin
- Ethereum
- J9BC
Naturally, the last listed option is this platform’s native token.
The minimum deposit limit on this site is equivalent to $20, while the minimum withdrawal is $50 (or 10000 J9BC). The withdrawal fees are $1 USDT, $1 USDC, $0.0002 BTC, $0.002 ETH, and 100 J9BC.
According to the site staff, there is no max withdrawal amount. So, you can take out as many funds as you see fit from your J9 balance. You must first set up 2FA before attempting to make a J9 withdrawal.
The platform makes no mention of any KYC requirements, and the live chat representative we spoke to confirmed to us that at no time will this platform ask you to verify your identity.
J9 Bonuses & Promotions
You will not find the industry standard promos at J9. Here, you get table game tournaments organized by Asia Gaming, lottery draws, and referral commissions.
The lotteries run by J9 usually have an alluring mega prize, such as a top-end vehicle, and list a few consolation rewards. There are also weekly draws where electronic gadgets are up for grabs. Ten million tickets get distributed for every draw, a player can claim a maximum of 99,999, and he can win multiple prizes with the same ticket. As a rule of thumb, this site grants a ticket when a wager amount reaches 199 USDT.
The referral commissions at J9 get calculated using the referral’s weekly betting sum multiplied by the 0.05% of the referral earnings proportion.
J9 Staking
The discussed J9BC token is a currency based on BSC Binance Smart Chain issued by the J9 crypto casino. It works in such a way that floating user losses produce a specific amount of J9BC, and those who hold this token get a share of the site’s profits from a dividend pool. You can earn USDT by staking your J9BC tokens. 70% of the J9BC distribution rate comes from mining, 10% from rewards and airdrops, 15% get held by founding members, partners, and those who have hedged for over two years, and referral rewards are responsible for the remaining 5%.
Every day, J9 re-buys 50% of its earnings, destroying the J9BC buyback, which causes the value of this token to rise. To enable the SWAP function, you need to wager over $1,000 or hold more than 50,000 J9BC.
On average, somewhere around $10,000 in dividends get paid out daily here.
VIP Program
The loyalty or J9 VIP program features seven levels, and you ascend these via your betting activity. The more you wager here, the better cashback percentage you attain, up to 0.95%. You start at the initial tier, with 0.6% cashback. After you bet over $10,000, this percentage jumps to 0.65%. To reach the seventh and final level of this system, you must wager over a million dollars, and that will open the doors to you snagging the 0.95% cashback, which gets settled every Monday at 01:00:00 and sent to your USDT wallet. Note that video poker, table games, Evolution products, and specific Esports wagers do not contribute to rebates at the J9 casino.
J9 Customer Support
Okay, so when we first saw the J9 live chat window, it was in what we assume to be Mandarin. However, after clicking the Messenger-like icon in the lower right corner of our screen, a separate browser window popped out, stating that this was intelligent customer service. It was trying to tell us that we were conversing with a chatbot, not a person. We chose Others from four provided subjects and got in touch with a J9 representative. The connecting process was fast, but there was no visible notification that the person we were speaking to was typing, so we first got the impression that we were waiting for a response when the J9 support team member was producing one for us. Despite the outdated look of the J9 chat window, the assistance provided here was decent. We did face some interface issues, as we could not type at times until pressing the plus icon left of the text field. Note that this help option should be available 24/7. Hence, the support staff is always on standby at the J9 crypto casino.
The site’s contact email is j9bit@j9.com. We sent a message to it containing six test questions and got a response in under an hour. The answers were acceptable, but we got the impression that they got provided by someone who has not yet mastered the English language at a native level. You can also get platform assistance through Telegram by contacting the community admin at @j9bc_alex.
From what we can tell, there is no FAQ page here, and the general terms and conditions section is a bit spare, which was a letdown.
Security
Westward Way Tech N.V., the company behind the J9 online casino, operates this platform under a Gaming Curacao license (GLH-OCCHKTW0708122021). For some reason, the latest batch of our reviewed sites has regulatory approval from this Curacao master license holder. Not Antillephone, which many see as the default crypto casino regulator. We don’t know if this is a coincidence or a trend that has flown under our radar. In our opinion, Gaming Curacao is a more credible regulator than Antillephone, as it takes player complaints more seriously based on player experiences. Still, it’s a Curacao organization, so don’t expect much from it.
J9 has a security certificate from Sectigo, boasting an RSA (2,048 Bits) Key. Apollo MKT Limited, a Nicosia, Cyprus-based entity, handles the payment processing at J9. And what we found worrying about this crypto gambling hub is that it has no dedicated privacy policy page. It only states in its general T&C page that it takes reasonable precautions to ensure that player data remains safe and briefly outlines its cookie conditions there, but only generally so.
J9 lets you set up 2FA, but it has no responsible gambling features.
GOSU Conclusion
On the surface, J9 looks like a premium gaming home. Nonetheless. Once our digging process commenced, we found a few flaws with this casino/sportsbook. It looks great, and when browsing over all the advertised options, we instantly thought we were in for analyzing one of the most diverse platforms we have ever come across. Yet, J9 does not have any deposit matches listed, no free spin deals, or level-up bonuses. The game library surprisingly lacks the depth we usually see at other crypto casinos, and we did not like how scarce the general T&C page was. That said, the lotteries and table games contests are a nice touch, and we are sure that many of our patrons will love that J9 has no KYC requirements. On top of this, it offers staking, referral commissions, and an average sportsbook. So, there is a decent trade-off in play here. It is only a matter of players weighing the noted benefits and drawbacks and deciding if this site is right for them.
