Funrize

Funrize Social Casino Overview

Funrize launched in 2022 and has been a popular option for social casino players ever since. It doesn’t have a large game library, but it does offer a robust loyalty program, several strong promotional options and a reliable and responsive mobile app.

Note: Funrize uses the term “Promotional Entries” for their version of Sweepstakes Coins. In this review, I use the term SC or Sweeps Coins interchangeably with Promotional Entries.

Customer service also proved to be a big positive step, as Funrize advertises a 24/7 availability for its team and I contacted them in the evening to test if that was accurate. Sure enough, I did get a response within 10 minutes despite being after hours, proving that the 24/7 customer service claims really do exist.

💰 Bonuses & Promotions Available

Promotions are a major strong point for Funrize social casino. This is the only social casino I’ve played so far where your Gold Coins can help you work toward legitimate rewards. At Funrize, your Gold Coin play helps you increase your loyalty levels in the Funrize Club. You unlock the Funrize Club at Level 2, and you gain status for every 10 levels of loyalty you earn.

Your Gold Coins come into play here because you can freely bet large amounts with them, given that they’re just for fun and your balance with them doesn’t really matter. I scored a couple large wins on Fortune Fish Frenzy because I was betting 10,000 GC per spin, which shot me through the first few loyalty levels very rapidly. After two large bonus wins, I had quickly gone from Bronze status to Silver, which meant better prizes on my Funrize Wheel spin.  

The Daily Wheel Spin is your only log-in bonus, so building your loyalty level is important. When you are bronze level you can win up to 4 SC. On silver-level spins, the top prize is up to 5 SC. I won 25,000 GC on my most recent silver spin, not a bad addition. The higher you progress in the loyalty program the better the potential rewards. When you spin, you can win either SC, GC or both.

The Daily Wheel Spin gives you a chance to win SC, which is what you really want, so getting higher amounts and better prizes for SC is a good thing. For this reason, we recommend using your Gold Coins to try a few slots and find your favorites at Funrize. Once you know the slots you like and have built some loyalty, then it’s time to try playing for SC.

One note, unlike daily log-in offers, the Daily Wheel Spin is not guaranteed. You can go days without earning any SC, which is a serious downside to this style of bonus.

Beyond that, you can get a few small SC bonuses by verifying your phone and e-mail address with Funrize. You have to do this anyway to be able to redeem anything, so it’s a good idea to go ahead and do it when you first start playing. The process took me just a couple minutes; all I had to do was check my e-mail and phone for the code they sent over and enter it on the site.

Coin Package Assessment

The welcome bonus is decent, but not quite as good as I’ve seen at other social casinos. After getting a free 100,000 GC and 2 SC, you’ll get a bonus of 50% on your first deposit as well as other bonus deposit offers. Of the two offers I got, one was a reasonable $9.99 for 200,000 GC and 20 SC, and the other was a rather extravagant $49.99 for 2,000,000 GC and 100 SC. I wasn’t prepared to make the larger investment and opted for the small one, which I had no problems getting.

I do like that Funrize offers two levels of bonus deposits with SC, giving players who do want to make a larger commitment a chance to get something for doing so. For the rest of the time at Funrize, you’ll usually find SC offered at a ratio of 1:1.

One really nice thing is that Funrize will offer promotional bundles at different times of the year, which gives you a chance to get extra SC. In December 2024, Funrize was offering a promotion called New Year Unlimited, which would award a bonus amount of GC and SC if you made five purchases of at least $19.99. That’s a large investment, but the reward could be well worth it: the promotional offer was that Funrize would award a random percentage of one of the five packages you bought.

Additionally, some of the bundles were offering a 50% bonus on SC, similar to what you get on your first deposit. That does dampen the welcome bonus, because it’s really not any better than what you can get later on during special promos. But the welcome bonus is the only one that’s guaranteed to come, and it is a nice way to get started. There’s more good news with the standard packages: all of them come with some SC. The minimum spend is $4.99, and that comes with 5 SC.

Funrize Payments & Redemption Review

There are plenty of good things about Funrize’s payments and redemptions process. Funrize promises players that redemptions will be processed within 48 hours, and that’s an easy process to follow. All you have to do is complete your verification process, and your redemption will be sent to the e-mail that you provided. 

Given that Funrize provides a couple of small bonuses for verifying your e-mail and phone number, you’ll probably have done some of the steps already when you make your first withdrawal. That helps streamline the process.

Redeeming for a gift card is also easy. The lower limits make a gift card an appealing option to many players, as you only have to play through and win 25 SC to be able to cash in for a gift card. You’ll follow the same verification process to redeem a gift card. You also have the option to redeem an Amazon gift card for the same 25 SC requirement.

Deposits are also easy, and using Trustly and Apple Pay helps offer a couple options to those who prefer more modern payment options along with the standard Visa, MasterCard and Discover. I used my MasterCard debit card, and while I needed to verify with my bank, that’s because of my bank not recognizing the charge as opposed to anything Funrize had on its end. Once I confirmed that I had made the charge, the payment was processed with ease.

Review of Game Selection & Playing Experience

I’ll start with the good: there are a lot of fun slots available here. Funrize has expanded its library since its launch in 2022, and there are far more titles than there were when it first came online. Even Brazilian soccer legend Ronaldinho has a slot game, and it’s a soccer-themed slot as you’d expect. I found it fairly enjoyable and hit a few small wins. You’ll find plenty of different themed slot games here; some of mine included Hit the Route and Gates of Anubis.

One of my favorite things about Funrize social casino is that it’s one of the most informative social casinos where I’ve played. Every slot tells you what its volatility is when you click on it, so you know exactly what kind of game you’re playing before you try it out. If I want to play a medium volatility slot such as Fortune Fish Frenzy or Mardi Gras, I’ll know exactly what I’m getting once I click on the slot in question. It does not include RTP numbers, but you can easily search for a slot and find those to give you a complete picture.

I also really love that Funrize offers slot tournaments for any and all of its slot games. Once you start playing, Funrize keeps track of your performance and where it falls compared to others in the same tournament. You can see how many credits you’ve earned, what the prize you’re going for is and how your plays are helping you build your credits toward the tournament. You’ll also see how much time is left in the tournament, so you’ll have a good idea of whether you have a reasonable shot to win.

Funrize also lays out its slot selection in an eye-pleasing way. The menu shows six slots per row at a time, so you don’t get overwhelmed by the slot selection. When you look at a slot, you’ll see what the limits are, what the maximum prize is, what the volatility is and whether the slot offers a bonus game. About the only information you don’t get is the RTP, which you can find easily by looking it up. If you want to search for a specific slot manufacturer, you can go into the full search feature and restrict yourselves only to games from that manufacturer. You’ve also got the option to favorite some of your preferred slot games so that you can easily find them in the future.

What I found problematic was the lack of table games. I understand that a social casino’s bread and butter is its slot play, and I expect that to be the main focus of its efforts. But a couple table games would have been nice, even if it’s just an online version of blackjack, baccarat or roulette. There aren’t any options for table games here; it’s all slot play.

Another annoyance is the blurred out amount of GC or SC you have while you’re playing. Funrize does put your total amount of whichever coin you’re playing with at the bottom of the screen, but that’s not particularly helpful when you’re used to looking at the top of the screen to see your balance. It’s really just an extra step that doesn’t need to exist. I’ve not yet found a way to disable the automatic blur, which is a little frustrating.

Finally, while the number of slots has improved, it still isn’t anywhere near the amount of games that you’d find at WOW Vegas or McLuck. Not every player needs or wants to have 700+ slot titles available, but when you’re able to mark your favorite games and discover new ones, it gives you a good reason to keep coming back over and over. 

A lack of games compared to competitors can send players away, especially if the games that are lacking are popular titles that can be found at other social casinos. Funrize has a nice selection of games, but it’s still missing some well-known titles that you’ll find at other sweepstakes casinos. It’s worth searching through the expanded library to find the game titles you want, but it’s tougher to justify doing so when other casinos are offering more gaming options.

Trustpilot TrustScore

Funrize Social Casino has moderately high ratings on TrustPilot, earning 3.8 stars out of 5. It has not verified on TrustPilot, but has responded to 100% of all negative reviews. People enjoy the quick redemption process, but they’re not big fans of the smaller game library or the difficulty in getting enough wins to justify continuing to play.

The ratings are high on the Google Play store, less so on the Apple App Store. There haven’t been any complaints to resolve on AskGamblers, mainly because most of the issues people have with Funrize are that it just doesn’t have as many game options as its competitors. While that is something the casino could fix over time, it’s not something that can be resolved in an individual complaint.

Reddit Analysis

The sentiment on Reddit is more mixed. Some users express frustration with not winning as much as they would like on the bonus wheel, while others are happy with how quickly Funrize sends funds when a user redeems them. Ill_Setting_6338 confirmed that they had no issues with getting paid, winning a grand jackpot and getting gift cards and cash for their winnings.

GamblingGirl87 was pleased that payments usually hit her account in less than 24 hours after putting in a redemption request.

📱 Mobile Apps & Play

Funrize Social Casino has a mobile casino app version on both Apple and Android, which is optimized for your mobile device. When I tried it out, the screen immediately adapted to how it would best look and play for a player. In the home screen, the app shows a horizontal layout with your balance and the available games, and it switches to a vertical layout once you choose any of the games to play.

One slight drawback is that you can’t be logged in on both your phone and your computer at the same time. When I went to the website on my computer to check if it was the same experience, I was promptly logged out on my mobile device. The good news is that Funrize offers all the same games on the web version as it does on the mobile version, but getting logged out is a small annoyance.

Funrize Security & Safety Check

Funrize is more secure than some of its competitors, as it offers two-factor authentication but does not mandate it. It includes a random number generator to ensure its games are fair, and it has a strong website security certificate in place.

It operates under the Know Your Customer (KYC) standard, so you’ll have to provide complete identification and verify your e-mail and phone number before it lets you redeem anything you’ve won on the site. This helps prevent underage users from playing on the site. Funrize also includes purchase limits, break reminders, cool-off periods and self-exclusion options.

Funrize is also operated by A1 Development LLC with has been operating sweeps casinos for a number of years with a solid track record.

Customer Support Experience

The customer support experience was top-notch. Funrize offers 24/7 live chat with its agents, which starts with a bot to determine what your question is about before switching to a live agent. The live agent usually comes on within five minutes and is designed to help with whatever broad category you gave the bot at the start of your chat.

Even if you don’t give the bot the right information, it’s not a drawback. I initially hit the wrong button and gave the bot a completely different topic than what I intended to ask about. The agent was still able to help me with both questions and get me a knowledgeable answer.

Email support is available, although Funrize doesn’t like to publicize it. You can find their support email in the terms and conditions, but if you click the support button on the site, it will just open up the 24/7 live chat. Still, I was able to get a response back via e-mail within 12 hours, so the e-mail option is viable.

Final Verdict

There’s plenty to like about what Funrize Casino brings to the table. I especially enjoy that I can actually get something for playing with Gold Coins, which isn’t something I have ever seen before at other social casinos that I’ve played. Usually, Gold Coins are just used to play for fun, nothing more than a glorified demo for a game before you actually play for Sweepstakes Coins to try to earn prizes and redemptions. At Funrize, you can actually use your Gold Coin play to build up your loyalty levels and get yourself better prizes from the Daily Wheel.

I also really like that the promotional offers routinely offer extra Sweepstakes Coins when you make deposits. Most casinos will give you one or two promo offers, but they won’t give you anything more than that. Funrize tends to give you multiple options to get extra Sweepstakes Coins, which are what you really want when you play at a social casino. The active and easy live chat support option is also a definite plus.

Where Funrize runs into issues is with its smaller game library. There just aren’t as many big-name gaming options as other social casinos, and the gaming library doesn’t offer as many games in all. I still found a few good gaming options, such as Grand Buffalo 7s and Candy Rush Overways, but the game library didn’t have many of my favorite slots, such as Sweet Bonanza or Gonzo’s Quest. I’m also not a fan of the lack of table games; having at least one would have made a big difference.

I also really don’t like that it blocks out the amount of coins that you have in your account while you’re playing. That seems a small thing, but I really like to see how many coins I have and adjust my play amount accordingly. Funrize makes that harder than it really needs to be.

Despite those drawbacks, there are several fun games available and it’s really easy to build up your loyalty points here so that you can get a large amount of Sweepstakes Coins. With the mobile version of Funrize working as well as it does, there are plenty of reasons for players to keep coming back.
