What Duel is
Duel launched in 2025 under Immortal Snail LLC, registered in Nevis, West Indies. The license is Anjouan (Comoros) under number {{license_number}}. That's a lighter regulatory framework than Curacao or MGA, so it's worth knowing. No sister sites, no history to go on. You're evaluating a brand new operation.
The core concept: ditch the welcome bonus treadmill and replace it with rakeback. Instead of getting a 100% match you have to wager 40x before touching, you get a percentage of the house edge back on everything you play. For high-volume players, that's a better deal. For players who deposit $50 and want a shot at a big bankroll boost, not so much.
This is a pure crypto casino. No fiat deposits, no fiat withdrawals. Accepted coins include BTC, ETH, LTC, USDT, and other cryptocurrencies. No KYC required, which is either a feature or a red flag depending on what you're used to.
Bonuses and rakeback
There's no traditional welcome bonus. That's the whole point. What Duel offers instead:
- Ongoing rakeback on all wagers (up to the advertised percentage)
- First-purchase promo: 50% instant rakeback on slots for new players using a promo code
- $500K monthly leaderboard and $30K daily leaderboard for active players
The rakeback percentage advertised is up to 50% on the first purchase and near-96% on general wagers. The 96% figure is essentially the RTP floor for the platform's own originals, not a literal cashback rate, so read that carefully before you assume it means you're getting 96 cents back per dollar wagered.
Compared to a site like Stake or Shuffle, which both run layered VIP systems with rakeback plus bonuses, Duel is running a stripped-down model. The lack of VIP tiers is notable. There's no documented tiered loyalty structure, which means high-volume players don't have an escalating reward track to chase.
Minimum redemption is $10.
Games
6000 games is a big number. Providers include Crash (99.9-100% RTP provably fair original), Mines (99.9-100% RTP provably fair original), which covers the main tier-1 suppliers. Slots, live dealer, sports betting, and proprietary originals.
The originals are the standout feature. Crash, Mines, Plinko, Dice, Blackjack, Keno, Beef, and Castle Roulette. These run at 99.9-100% RTP and are provably fair, meaning you can verify each outcome independently. For context, most third-party slots run at 95-97% RTP. That's a meaningful difference for volume play.
Live dealer is powered by Evolution, which is the best live dealer supplier in the industry. That's a good sign for a new platform. The sportsbook covers 50+ sports with 1,000+ daily football events, which is a full offering rather than a token sports tab.
No mobile app. Duel runs in the browser. That's fine for most use cases but worth knowing if you prefer a dedicated app.
Banking
Crypto-only: BTC, ETH, LTC, USDT, and other cryptocurrencies. No fiat options at all. Withdrawals are claimed at under Under 30 minutes (crypto) for crypto, with no documented withdrawal limits on the lower end. The daily win limit is $250,000.
No KYC is the headline banking feature. You can register, deposit, and withdraw without identity verification. Quick registration reportedly works via Google or Steam login. For privacy-focused players, that's a real advantage.
The under-30-minute payout claim is consistent with what other crypto casinos offer at launch, but it's worth watching as the platform scales. Early platforms often have fast withdrawals until volume increases or a large payout triggers a review. Trustpilot reviews are contradictory on this point: some say fast, some say slow. Sample size is too small to draw conclusions yet.
Licensing and safety
Anjouan (Comoros) licensing is below Curacao and significantly below MGA in terms of player protection. It's a real license but it's not a strong one. If you have a dispute, your options are limited.
Casino Guru gives Duel a Safety Index of 7.3/10, which they classify as 'above average'. That's a decent score for a new platform. It reflects fair terms and conditions with no obviously predatory clauses, rather than a long track record of resolved complaints.
Immortal Snail LLC as the operator is unknown outside of this platform. No documented history, no other brands. That's not unusual for a new operation but it does mean you can't check their track record elsewhere.
Trustpilot is messy. There are scam allegations and there are positive reviews. Some negative reviews appear to reference related-sounding brands (Duelbits, Duelcash) rather than Duel specifically. Take any single Trustpilot data point here with salt. The platform is too new for a reliable reputation signal.
Who this is for
Crypto-only gamblers who play enough volume to make rakeback worthwhile. Players who hate wagering requirements and want to skip the bonus merry-go-round. No-KYC preferred players. Anyone interested in provably fair originals at near-100% RTP.
Not for: players in {{prohibited_states}} (restricted). Players who want fiat banking. Players who want a traditional welcome bonus. Anyone who needs a well-established track record before depositing.
For comparison, Stake and Shuffle both have years of operation behind them and larger complaint-site footprints to evaluate. Duel is newer and lighter on history. That's a real consideration.
PLEASE DO NOT GAMBLE WITH MONEY THAT YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE. Gambling is not a money making method and you will lose in the long run.
