 Parx's Online Casino Review

While it doesn't quite make the top 10 largest casinos in the U.S., with 176,592 square feet dedicated to your casino gaming delight, Parx casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania is definitely the largest in the state. It has an outstanding collection of around 3,500 slots machines, with over 180 table games. How does this translate to their online platform?

Well, you won't find that kind of variety online. Still, we think Parx's online casino is very worthwhile for loyal Parx patrons, and it has an offer for first time deposits that is tempting for slots devotees. 

Read below to find out the good, bad, and ugly about Parx's online casino. 

First time Bonus offer from Parx Online

The online casino business in New Jersey is becoming increasingly competitive, and one way that casinos try to lure in customers is with great promotions for first timers. Nearly every casino offers two: $10-30 free, no-deposit bonus dollars and a matching deposit offer. 

Since Parx is an outsider (having its physical casino in Pennsylvania) and new to the New Jersey online casino scene, it is surprising that they did not roll out some better offers to tempt new customers. Still, there matching deposit offer is not bad, particularly for slots players.

Bonus: $500 matching deposit

Parx online casino is offering $500 in matching deposits for first time deposits. This means they'll match you one bonus dollar for every dollar you deposit, up to $500.

Terms and conditions indicate that there is a 20x playthrough requirement. This means you must wager $20 of your own cash for every $1 of bonus dollars before you can withdraw your winnings. So if you deposit $200, you'll be matched, and have a total bank of $400. You must wager $4,000 before you can withdraw earnings based on the bonus dollars.

You can also opt out if you no longer want to participate in this promotion.

While money spent on most slots games count 100% toward this wager requirement, other table games count between 50% (roulette) and 10% (all other table games). So you'll see that the $200 kick on $4,000 of play might be worthwhile if you're playing slots. If you're playing poker, however, you'd need to wager a lot of money before you'd be able to withdraw your winnings.

Bonus dollars expire after 6 months.

VIP program/Rewards system

Regular patrons of the Parx casino in Pennsylvania or bettors who also use Parx's online casino for sportsbetting can take extra advantage of the online casino in New Jersey. You can rack up points through any of Parx's platforms and have them all credited toward your XClub loyalty program. 

Players:  up to 999 credits 
Premium: 1,000 - 7,499 credits
Elite: over 7,500 credits

As many professional gamblers will point out, receiving benefits from a casino in the form of loyalty points is the way you can beat the house even if you're not raking it in at the table or slots machine. For this reason, it should be part of your strategy to devote you playing to a single or a few casinos, so you can accrue points for your own use. Be aware that casinos reward points may expire, and each casino has different periods before expiry.

Parx XClub points expire after 6 months. 

 NJ site features and user experience

Parx online casino was designed by GAN, who also produced a number (but not all) of the games in the casino. We are fans of the simplicity and tidiness of the webpage and apps. It is devoid of some of the flashy bells and whistles that often slow loading time and get under big thumbs on tiny mobiles, so no complaints there from us. The operation of both platforms leads to some smooth sailing, allowing you to put your focus where it should be: on the game. 

Platform and software

Parx casino's website is clear and loaded without any problems for us. It has a sleek black background and is quite intuitive. As mentioned, it is not a very "busy" website: the small selection of games makes the website rather minimalist and clean. 

Mobile app

The Android app must be downloaded from the online casino's homepage: https://nj.parxcasino.com/. The iOS app can be downloaded via the App Store, and you can also find the link on the online casino's homepage.

Customer service

Parx has a number of means to contact their customer service easily: by phone, email, or live chat. In our test, customer service was very quick to respond. 

The Parx online platforms also have a promising-looking Frequently Asked Questions section; unfortunately few of the questions are actually answered. Instead they only tell you to consult other pages and hunt for your answers there. 

Casino Game selection

Online players accustomed to the great variety of games at Parx's physical casino may be surprised at the comparatively small selection of online games. On the other hand, you could say that Parx has chosen a kind of "best of" for their online casino, which streamlines their online platform. This is a big plus for players who know what they want, know Parx has it, and don't want to have a hard time finding it. 

Slots Games

Parx has a good selection of nearly 70 slots games. While it doesn't stack up with the hundreds offered by other casinos, if they have the games you want to play, then why go to a busier site?

You'll find many slots games, including:

• Blood Suckers (with the famous 98% Return to Player)
• Dead Or Alive II
• Egg-o-Matic
• Gonzo’s Quest
• Medusa: the Quest of Perseus
• Secret of the Stones
• Victorious

Table Games

You'll find the following table games on Parx online casino: 

• Baccarat Professional Series
• EZ Baccarat
• BlackJack
• Pro BlackJack
• PokerBet
• Casino Hold'Em Poker
• Jacks or Better
• Hi-Lo Solitare
• Roulette Royale
• Roulette Advanced

Deposit and withdrawal methods at Parx online casino

Parx has a few of the more popular methods of deposit available, but its withdrawal methods are very limited (in fact, some of the worst for online casinos in New Jersey). As you'll see, PayPal is not one of the options available for deposits, and withdrawal options haven't really joined the 21st century.

The following options are available for deposits:

Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, Maestro, or Discover
Play+ Prepaid card
ACH or e-check
PayNearMe at local 7-Eleven convenience store
Pay and withdraw at the Parx Casino Cage in Bensalem, Pennsylvania.
Bank Wire

Withdrawals at the time of writing are unfortunately rather limited. Withdrawals are only available via:

Play+ Prepaid card
ACH or e-check
Physical check
Pay and withdraw at the Parx Casino Cage in Bensalem, Pennsylvania.

Summary

The Parx casino in Pennsylvania is enormous, and they are no new comers to the world of gambling. As they already have an online casino in Pennsylvania as well, it is surprising they've not invested more in some basics for their online platforms (particularly given the huge fee for licensing an online casino).

As it stands, the small choice in games, lack of options for withdrawing funds, lack of no-deposit bonus dollars for new customers, and the rather high playthrough requirement on the matched deposit bonus (minimally 20x, in effect 200x with table games other than roulette!) are all lackluster. 

Still, regular players at Parx physical casino can enjoy the opportunity to add to their XClub points while they're away from the casino, which is a big plus! They do have the primary attractors for both slots and table games, so unless you're fixed on a particular game, chances are they have the games that will keep your happy. If you are primarily a slots player, the $500 matching bonus would give a nice padding to your bankroll. 

We think Parx has a long way to go if they want to be serious contenders in New Jersey's online casino market. As other casinos have more and better bonuses for new customers, more offers for existing offers, more games, and more options for deposits and withdrawals, the is very little reason for new customers to join up with Parx. We look forward to seeing how Parx can improve, however, as they have the backing to be a serious contender in New Jersey's online casino market.
