How do I download the free software?
Firstly, make sure that all your other applications are closed then click on the Free Download button to start the software download. The initial download will only take between 2 - 10 minutes depending on the speed of your Internet connection. You are now ready to install the 32Red software application file that you saved to your desktop. Double click to open 32Red - the installation wizard will then begin. Follow the prompts when requested and the software will be installed.

I have downloaded the file but cannot find it?
If the 32Red icon is not on your desktop and you can't remember where you saved it, please follow these steps...

  • Open the window search function by clicking on "start" then "search" then "file and folders"(alternatively, press the windows key + F simultaneously)
  • In the search field, type in 32Red Casino, and click "search now"
  • When the file has been found, you can install the software by double-clicking on the filename in the search results

Please note: if you cannot find the installation file after following the above steps, your download probably did not complete. Please download the software from our website again.

Do I have to download every time I want to play?
Absolutely not! You only need to download and install the 32Red Online Casino once. After installing the file, it is accessible from your menu.

I cannot complete the installation, when I run the install file?
Please make sure that you have enough space on your hard drive to complete the installation. 32Red Casino needs at least 30 megabytes of disk space to install.

I keep losing my connection while trying to download the file?
You are probably experiencing problems because of Internet Congestion. This usually happens during working hours, when a lot of people are using the Internet. The best times to download large files are later in the evening or over weekends. Please try again later, or alternatively, send us your full mailing address for a complimentary 32Red Casino software CD.

Please note:
this can also be the case, when files take too long to download or do not complete.

I cannot connect to gaming server?
This problem is usually caused by one of three things...

  • You have lost your Internet connection
  • You have a very bad or slow connection to the gaming server
  • You have a firewall blocking you from playing

Please note: reconnecting to the Internet, especially in the evening or during the weekends when the Internet is less busy, can solve the first two problems. If you think your problem is related to a firewall, please ask your firewall administrator to open port 80; you will have to make sure that you are not behind a proxy server.

The Slots keep spinning / Roulette wheel keeps spinning / Cards don't turn over why?
You have either lost your Internet connection, or you have a very slow connection to the gaming server. The gaming server will complete the last transaction, and you will be able to view it next time you log on.

32Red accepts a number of other payment and withdrawal mechanisms, please see our Banking Pages for more information.

How can I identify any payments or withdrawals on my bank statement?
Payments and withdrawals will show as...

  • Debit and Credit cards as '32Red (Trafalgar BG)'
  • Firepay as 'Cashmove'

How do I withdraw my winnings?
You can cash-in any amount of chips in your account at any time. It is not necessary to cash-in your chips at the end of each session as the balance will remain in your account and is available immediately next time you connect. Cash-ins can be made by clicking on the Bank button. Click on the Cash-in button and put the amount you wish to withdraw in the box and you're finished. It is automatically recorded in the software and will be processed accordingly.

Are there any limits to how much I can withdraw and how long does it take?
There are no limits or restrictions on the amounts you wish to Cash-In through your Debit Card. Cash-Ins will reach your bank account within 3-4 working days. There are no charges for withdrawing money using a Credit Card. However, your Cash-In can only be refunded against your original Credit Card Purchase(s). It takes up to 5 working days for the refund to show in your account after the request has been received - subject to additional bank processing times. You can credit funds back to your Firepay account. This will take between 2 - 4 days. There are no limits or restrictions on the amounts you wish to Cash-In by Cheque. This process takes between 21-24 Working Days.

In the interest of customer security and for your protection we will undergo certain checks and verifications.

How can I follow up financial transactions?
You can track and audit your financial activity at 32Red. CashCheck is a web-based facility giving you a comprehensive history with details of all purchases and withdrawals - similar to a bank statement.

I made a withdrawal, but have changed my mind. How can I cancel a withdrawal request?
Cashed-in funds will be held pending for 4 hours, during which time you may reverse the cash-in in order to continue playing by simply selecting this option from the Banking section of the 32Red Casino. If you wish to reverse cash-ins after this time you can contact support and depending on the stage of the refund process, we may be able to reverse it.

Why are my purchases being rejected?
Purchases can be rejected for numerous reasons many of which have nothing to do with your credit. Your request for purchase is sent securely via the Internet but if your purchase request is delayed along the way, our processing centre will reject the transaction rather than processing it with incomplete data.

Additional reasons are that your billing information doesn't match the credit card information that you entered on the Casino Banking page. For instance, if you have entered a different post code (Zip code), or your residential address is different to your billing address, then the purchase is likely to be rejected.

Your credit card company may have set controls (or barriers) to prevent potential fraudulent transactions. If several purchases are made within a short period of time, your credit card company may block your credit card for all transactions. This is an automatic response and may also happen if three or more purchases for the same amount are processed by one merchant (or processor) to your credit card.

32Red also has daily and weekly limits on credit cards that may have been reached. You can request that your card limits be refreshed by contacting our help desk.
Some credit cards may also have been blocked for international sales. Internet problems and traffic congestion can also cause rejections.

Please note: if you feel that your debit / credit card is getting rejected incorrectly, please contact our help desk so that we can assist in resolving the problem.

Game Play...


How fair are the games at your casino?
Our casino supports a Fair Gaming Policy, which means that each time a game is played the software uses the Microgaming Random Number Generator to randomly produce the gaming results. This ensures that no "programming" advantages can be created on the casino's side to favour the house, and also stops players from gaining an unfair advantage by counting cards or "cracking the system".

Please note: for your peace of mind, we have engaged the services of Independent auditors. They review all our games' payout percentages on a monthly basis. You can review these reports by going to our Payout Report section.

How do you determine which cards are drawn (dice thrown, number selected, etc.) for the games?
The most important part of an online casino is a specially designed program called the Random Number Generator. This is the program that generates a sequence of numbers which correspond to various card types, dice throws, etc. A good random Number Generator will produce numbers that are...

  • Evenly distributed and correlated
  • Unpredictable

If a Random Number Generator is evenly distributed and not correlated, each number will be hit approximately the same number of times after a large number of events. If a Random Number Generator is unpredictable, you will not be able to predict the next number in a series no matter how many previously generated numbers you have studied.
Please note: that Guest players playing for fun experience the 32Red Random Number Generator used throughout the casino for all play, both fun and real money. We believe that it is important for Guests to evaluate the casino fully and realistically before playing with real money. Not all casinos operate in this way.

What happens if I am suddenly disconnected from the Internet while I play?
If for some reason, you get disconnected from the Internet while you are in a middle of a game, don't panic. In games where player action takes place during the round (like Blackjack, Craps and Video Poker) you will automatically be returned to the exact point where the game was interrupted, so you can continue exactly from the same point you left off, just like in any game round.

In games like Slots and Roulette, where the player does not make decisions in the game after the round has started, you can just log in to the casino again and see how the game finished by clicking on the PlayCheck button.

Are your rules for Roulette, American or European?
32Red Casino uses European rules for Roulette. See our Online Roulette at 32Red section to find out more about Roulette at 32Red.

How many decks are there in the Blackjack game?
That depends on the game you are playing. In the Casino there are games which use 2, 4, 5 and 8 decks. Each offers a different challenge and needs a different winning strategy.

There are also other differences between the Blackjack games, such as the options to surrender, double, split and re-split, split aces and so on. There is only one progressive Blackjack game - Triple 7s Blackjack - and one multi-hand game - Multi-hand Blackjack.
All decks are shuffled before each hand; all Blackjacks pay 3 to 2.

How does the Slot payout table work?
The payout table lists the amount of coins that are won for every combination. The payout amount is dependant on the coin size multiplied by the amount of coins won.
You can change the coin size in the game menu. For example...

  • If you win 2000 coins, and the coin size is 25p, the total payout will be £500, OR
  • If you win 1000 coins, and the coin size 25c, the total payout will be $250
