888 Casino app
The 888 brand has been in operation for several years now, although it was only launched in New Jersey back in 2018.

Overview
It doesn’t take long to download and install the 888Casino app regardless of the device, as it is quite a small file size of no more than 8mb. So even if you’re using Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G, 5G you should be able to get started straight away. As with all things surrounding the 888Casino New Jersey and any real money casino app by a NJ operator, you need to be within the state borders to be able to place real money wagers. Location services should be turned on on your mobile device so that you’re able to prove you are in state lines and then gain access to all the games.
Prior to depositing and accessing the games, you need to have an account with 888 Casino. That’s an easy process to go through though, with the site requiring the following basic information:
- Name
- Last 4 digits of social security number
- Date of Birth
- Gender
- Email Address
- Mobile Phone Number
- Username
- Password
It shouldn’t take you much longer than 2-3 minutes for the completion of your sign-up, and this can also be done via the mobile app or normal website. You will need to create an account before you can play on any games, this is the case when using the browser or one of the downloadable apps. However, once you’ve gone through sign up, you’ll be able to log straight in and access the mobile casino in all its glory. The question is, has 888Casino managed to create an exciting gaming experience for players? We certainly think so!

888Casino Mobile
From the mobile site, and also the Android and the iOS app, mobile gamers can access a varying range of online titles from the operator. If we’re looking at a figure for the number of games, you’ll comfortably be able to play around 180 different titles via your device. This does pale in comparison to the number that can be accessed through the European version of the mobile casino, but there’s still plenty to entertain you with on the New Jersey version. We only expect this number to increase as the operator has big hopes for the brand in NJ. There are more games available on the desktop site, which is to be expected during this relatively new launch, but some of the more popular titles include:
Slots
- Starburst
- 88 Fortunes
- Zeus III
- Kiss
- Raging Rhino
- Roman Chariots
- OMG Kittens
- Bier Haus
Table Game Types
- Blackjack
- Roulette

Features
888Casino is partnered by Caesars Interactive Entertainment New Jersey and is an affiliate of the Boardwalk Regency Corporation. It holds a gambling licence from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, so everything is legal and regulated. The interface of the mobile app is easy to navigate around and utilizes a design similar to the desktop setup of the casino. Featuring a black design with yellow and silver menu and coloring’s, the design works. This new version of the 888casino NJ app (on a brand new platform called Orbit), launched in August 2019, it now features a new live dealer casino with even more games. Enjoy an even wider selection of 888 Live Casino Tables including live blackjack, live roulette, live 3 card poker and live ultimate Texas hold’ em, all in on great, easy to use mobile app. The app is designed to give you Vegas-style realism in the palm of your hand, and we think it does a good job of that. Expect even more games to transition in to the app as 888 really beefs up its mobile offering.
The 888casino Android and iOS apps are identical to the mobile counterpart. They all have the same design and games access. There is one main menu which you can find on the left of the screen. In here is options to sign up, a handy search facility, promotions, Home, Slots & Jackpot games, Card & table Games, Live Casino, VIP Club, a handy getting started guide, banking and a help section. The speed at which the app opens and navigates is a real selling point for us. There is nothing worse than a slow or laggy app that crashes. It’s not just the iPhone or Android mobiles the app will work on, its compatible with larger tablets like the iPad and Samsung tablets, featuring a responsive design, it will render to any screen and takes up the whole real estate of the display for an improved gaming experience. You really can enjoy the convenience of playing your favorite casino games anywhere you go in New Jersey.
Game title, Slots view & table games
It’s not difficult to find the games using the search feature. Just start tying the title and results will start to filter. It is easy to access the cashier and any other section of the casino too, as it’s all laid out with easy-to-use categories and links. As far as the games that are available within the casino’s lobby, you’ll find titles on hand from companies like Netent, IGT, WMS and 888 Gaming, among others. There are over 180 titles available to play with 888. That number may be smaller than other casino apps (such as Caesars casino app) but think more quality than quantity. Whilst the number of games may fall short of some of its rivals, the quality of games and overall playing experience certainly doesn’t.
Accessing the different slots and table games is simple. You just select the one that you want to play and then the game shows up in its optimized format on your screen. Everything runs smoothly, with both demo mode and real money play possible from a mobile device. Graphics and game play are really top draw and we are very impressed with the games and titles available. Slots fans will love the range of slots and if you have never used a live casino on your cell before, you will be blown away with the quality. Dealers are always spot on and if you can’t make it to the casino, then this is definitely the next best thing.
If you are already an 888 sports app customer, you can just download the app and log straight in. They operate a one wallet system so you can play with funds from your Sportsbook account and also the 888 poker app if you are a fan of playing poker too.
What Could Be Improved on the App?
While it’s great that the app provides a really good choice of games, there are still a fair few available on desktop that haven’t yet made their way to the mobile platform. We have no doubt that they will all be available, but come 888 get your act in gear! There are some really great titles available on the desktop that we would love to be able to play on our cell. Video Poker is still missing among several other big options. Another thing that slightly bugs us, is that if you want to wager on sports, or play poker, you need to use a separate app. You can’t jump from casino to sports and back again like you can with some other NJ wagering apps. There is an argument here that this is a dedicated casino app and others that do sportsbook and casino, don’t work as well or are as fluid as this one. Live Chat has not yet made its way to the orbit platform but we have been told this will arrive soon.
Support
It’s always hopeful that customers won’t need help with playing, but if that occasion ever does come, there is the option of contacting the customer support team. You just need to navigate to the Help tab in the menu, which will provide you with access to the casino’s support center, which is like an FAQ section. You can find info on bonuses, depositing, games support, login help, registration support and loads of other helpful information. Contact details for the support team can also be found there including the option to email in.
Cashier & Banking Options
Making deposits into your account is a simple enough process, too. 888Casino accepts transactions through a few different payment methods, including:
- Credit & debit cards
- Visa & MasterCard
- Neteller
- Wire transfer
- PayPal
- Cash @ Caesars in Atlantic City’s cage
- PayNearMe
- 7-Eleven convenience store
