Viva Fortunes Review

Why Viva Fortunes?

Large range of video slot games

Decent scratchcards catalogue

Good selection of deposit and withdrawal options

Viva Fortunes may well be a popular casino for British fans of slots and scratchcard games, but that's where its appeal ends. Without any other kind of game at all, it relies entirely on a loyalty programme and slick design to attract gamers. Although produced by the 888 group, this is a less impressive effort than most of their casinos.

Close

Viva Fortunes is an online slot gaming website, offering over 500 slots games. Established in 2020 and part of the 888 family of online casinos and gambling websites, it is entirely focused on slot games and scratchcards.

On both mobile and desktop, the interface looks slick and it’s super easy to navigate between the different sections. The whole site has a ‘night-time’ feel to it, and the slots look great next to this backdrop. So if you’re missing your local casino or just fancy a night out without having to leave the house, then it’ll certainly feel like it as you spin.

888 is famous for creating visually high-quality casinos. No matter if you’re playing on a phone, iPad, PC, Mac or giant TV, the graphics, scaling and presentation make Viva Fortunes both pleasant to look at and easy to work with.

Games

Viva Fortunes is a good destination for players of video slots, and advertises over 500 titles on offer. Unfortunately it’s not possible to see all 500 before you register with the site, so only a few examples are visible to the casual punter.

The only other type of game on offer is scratchcards, and again only a handful of these are on display prior to registering with Viva Fortunes, so it’s difficult to know how extensive this game catalogue really is.

What is clear is that fans of table games, poker, live casinos, bingo or sportsbooks should look elsewhere for a varied gaming experience.

Softwares

As with slot titles, it’s difficult to know how many software providers are available without registering. The sites does confirm that it features slots from NetEnt, Eyecon and NextGen, and presumably there are more well-known developers contributing to Viva Fortunes.

Slots

Viva Fortunes has well over 500 different slot games to try, with a huge variety of themes, styles and play types. Here’s a few examples:

• Robin Hood: Set in Sherwood Forest, this cascading reels slot game offers multiple ways of winning as well as a unique play style.
• Gonzo’s Quest: A unique slot game that follows a friendly Spanish explorer (Gonzo) as he hunts for the golden city of El Dorado. With quick-fire gameplay, great graphics and plenty of gold coins to be won, this one is a hit for both new and experienced players.
• Lucky Lassie: This slot game will have you chasing a pot of gold, with a red-haired Irish maiden accompanying you along the way  and bringing her good fortune.

Scratchcards

Virtual scratchcards are becoming really popular, so it’s no surprise to see that Viva Fortunes has jumped on the bandwagon. There’s a huge selection of games to play, ranging from low-cost plays with smaller potential prizes all the way up to more expensive cards with life-changing sums of money up for grabs.

If you can’t make it to the shop or don’t have time to hop on a slot, then scratchcards are a great quick play. Just pick your card, pay for it with your funds, then scratch away using your finger or mouse.

Mobile Casino

Another big plus for Viva Fortunes is the ability to play anytime, anywhere. Thanks to some clever design and a mobile-first optimisation strategy, the site can be accessed on pretty much any device or computer.

App

There’s also a Viva Fortunes app for Android, which makes it even easier to get the ‘full’ experience if you’re playing while on the go. This is ideal for a quick spin on the bus to work, or during your break!

Support

If you’ve got a problem, then it can usually be solved by checking out the extensive FAQ section. If the problem is still there, then you can email the support team for further help, with fast responses.

Deposit Methods

Viva Fortunes accepts payments via Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, PayPal, Paysafecard, Wire Transfer, Interac, Apple Pay or even payments over the phone.

Withdrawal Methods

Withdrawals can be requested from the menu at the top right of the page, with funds sent to your linked account. You’ll need a UK bank account or credit card to accept your winnings, and you can always use the support function for any queries. When we withdrew a small win after playing the Gonzo’s Quest slot game, the funds came through really quickly, but bigger wins could take a little longer.

Loyalty Programme

If you play regularly, then you’ll automatically join the Viva Fortunes loyalty scheme. This has different levels, with players awarded a new level depending on how many times they deposit or play when logged in. Essentially, the more you keep playing, the better your rewards in the long run, but there are two main bonuses to keep an eye out for.

The first is the loyalty scheme treat bonus, which offers players things like free spins, prizes and other VIP goodies. The other is the monthly cashback bonus. If you manage to reach level four of the loyalty scheme, then you’ll be awarded a monthly cashback offer, which depends on your level play throughout the given month.

Although these bonuses are a welcome addition, they do of course depend on how much you log in and wager, so they won’t make too much of a difference if you’re a casual visitor.

Licence

The site has been licensed by the Gibraltar Gambling Commission and the UK Gambling Commission.

Currencies

Supported currencies include the British Pound, Euro, US Dollar and Canadian Dollar.

Responsible Gambling

Viva Fortunes has the same self-limit and maximum deposit settings as other 888 Casino sites and apps, so you can limit everything from the amount that can be deposited and wagered, all the way to locking yourself out of your account if needed.
