There are many important areas to assess when reviewing an online casino starting with the games and definitely including the bonuses. But what we've found from readers, one of their primary concerns focuses on the banking.
As Canadians we are particularly interested in a couple of things - does the casino accept Canadian dollars and can we used payment methods that are convenient for us?
Boom Casino performs well on both fronts. The casino explicitly accepts Canadian dollars. Even more so, almost surprisingly, at the moment CAD is one of only two currencies that the casino accepts (the other being euros), so yay for us!
As for payment methods, while they are somewhat limited, they are certainly the kinds most of us are already using for other things. We would say it's comfortable and convenient enough.
For those who are worried about security - always a legitimate thing to ponder when spending real money online - the casino has extensive security measures in place to protect your personal data at all times. These include procedures that cover areas including authentication, access control, monitoring, auditing, data storage, backup processes, and transmission standards. In other words, the casino takes taking care of your money and other private data very seriously.
In order to make a deposit at Boom Casino, you will first need to open a Boom Casino account. Just click on the 'Register' button – it's turquoise coloured and can be found on the upper left side of your screen. You will need to enter your email address, create a decently strong password, fill in your address and cell phone number. That's it.
It shouldn't take more than about 30 seconds. Once you are registered, you are ready to make a deposit.
Step 1: Log in to Boom Casino.
Step 2: In the left navigation, click on the link labelled 'Deposit'. A popup will open to the right side of your screen.
Step 3: Enter the amount you would like to deposit.
Step 4: Click on your preferred payment method.
Step 5: Follow the onscreen prompts (they will be slightly different for each deposit method), and fill in any required fields.
Step 6: Click the 'Deposit' button at the bottom of the popup to complete the transaction.
Note: For your first deposit, you will need to deposit a minimum of $30 to claim the welcome bonus. After that, the minimum accepted deposit is $20.
Boom Casino Cash Out Process
If have money in your Boom Casino account that you would like to withdraw, you can easily cash out at any time, like this:
Step 1: Log in to your Boom Casino account.
Step 2: In the left navigation, click on the link labelled 'Withdraw'. A popup will open to the right side of your screen.
Step 4: Choose the payment method to which you would like to process the withdrawal. That is, where you want to receive the money.
Step 5: Click the 'Withdraw' button at the bottom of the popup to complete the transaction.
Another quick tip, keep in mind that you need to have at least $30 in your real money balance in order to process a withdrawal.
Boom Casino Cash Out Times
Cash out times at an online casino are always an interesting question. The answer isn't entirely simple, as there are two bodies involved in releasing your funds - the casino and the payment operator.
Boom Casino for its part processes all cash out requests within hours. As long as you have submitted all the required documentation, technically the money could be yours within hours.
The issue, however, lies in the payment method's hands. That is, credit cards and banks often take longer to complete transactions, as you have likely noticed.
So the long and the short of it is that it is possible to cash out in a matter of hours and have the cash back in hand. Realistically though, it may take a few business days when you're talking credit cards. If this is the case, there is nothing to worry about. It is totally standard stuff.
Deposit Limits and Fees at Boom Casino
The deposit limits at Boom Casino are very reasonable and designed to suit players of different budgets and styles.
If you are a lower stakes player, you can make smaller deposits of just $20 at a time - except on your first deposit as mentioned above, which needs to be for at least $30 in order to claim the welcome bonus.
If you are a high roller, then you are in luck as well because the casino lets you deposit as much as $10,000 at a time!
"In terms of deposit limits, while $10,000 is the maximum allowed by the casino, if you would like to set yourself lower limits to help manage your budget, the casino also has tools like Deposit Limits, Loss Limits, and Wagering Limits which you can use. These are found under the 'My Account' section, and are something that many online casino players like."Vienne Garcia – Author and Casino Expert
As for fees, there are none charged by the casino for making a deposit.
Withdrawal Limits and Fees at Boom Casino
Just like the deposit limits, the withdrawal limits at Boom Casino are totally reasonable. As we pointed out above, you will need to have at least $30 in real money in your casino account in order to request a withdrawal. But you can actually make a withdrawal for as little as $20.
If you would like to take out a larger sum, you can process a $10,000 withdrawal with ease. If you are so lucky as to win a massive jackpot - we actually suggest you contact the casino directly to see how you can best deal with that.
It's important to point out that at Boom Casino you can register up to four payment methods at a time. You can feel free to switch back and forth between them as you please, i.e. whatever is most convenient for you at the moment.
In terms of withdrawal fees, those too are free. That is the casino does not charge you a thing for processing a withdrawal.
Account Verification for Cash Withdrawals from Boom Casino
All online casinos will require that you verify your account in order to process cash withdrawals. At Boom Casino you will receive either an email or a popup message at some point prompting you to send this documentation to complete the withdrawal process.
Once you receive such a request, you will need to send the requested documents to [email protected].
Things you will definitely be asked for include:
Proof of identity - This can be a copy of either your ID card, passport, or birth certificate.
Proof of address - A utility bill from within the last 3 months.
For both documents, make sure the full document is showing, with all four corners, and all of the details can be clearly seen.
Further verification may be requested, depending on what payment method you are using and what actions you are taking, so stay tuned for any messages from the casino.
You will also likely be asked to send certain documentation at some point in compliance with responsible gambling regulations- like a pay slip or a bank statement potentially - so stay tuned for that as well.
Summary of Boom Casino Banking
In a nutshell, we highly approve of the Boom Casino banking as a whole.
It is certainly Canadian friendly. Canadian dollars are one of the two currencies accepted. Interac is one of the preferred payment methods. So we're happy to see that.
True, there aren't a ton of options for conducting transactions, but there are enough to get the job done. They're certainly ones that we are using anyhow, so there's nothing really to complain about on that front.
The processing times are quick and the minimum and maximum deposit and withdrawal amounts make gambling on any budget possible.
All and all, we would have to say that our review of Boom Casino banking is positive, and yet another reason why this casino is so highly recommended.

I've been working in the online casino landscape in Malta for more than 10 years and have seen how the industry works from customer service roles to the backend of the business. While I am lucky enough to call myself a native on the sunny island called Malta, I also enjoy travelling and have travelled across Canada! After wandering through the great white north, I have decided to share my knowledge and now work with Canadian players to compile accurate casino reviews to help players navigate through the hundreds of gaming sites online.
