A Mid-Tier Casino & Sportsbook That Closed in May 2026
Mr Play is no longer operational as of 28 May 2026 — its website now shows only a closure notice and a newsletter signup “for future updates and later projects”. Launched as a combined casino and sportsbook, it was operated by AG Communications Limited, a Malta-based company in the Aspire Global network, under UK Gambling Commission licence 39483. If you held a balance when it closed, use the full notice on mrplay.com to contact the operator, or raise it with the UK Gambling Commission if unresolved. We keep this review online for reference. For a current UKGC-licensed casino-plus-sportsbook account, see our reviews of Quickbet, Pub Casino, and Betreels.
Welcome Bonus
Mr Play’s welcome package ran across your first three deposits, which was unusual for the UK market. The first deposit gave a 100% match up to £50 plus 20 spins on Starburst (minimum £10). The second and third deposits each earned a 50% match up to £75 — a maximum of £200 in bonus funds overall, with 80 spins drip-fed at 20 per day across four days. Spin winnings were capped at £100 and wagering was 35x on all bonuses and spin winnings, with a £4 max bet while a bonus was active. The notable catch: withdrawing your deposit before clearing wagering voided all bonuses immediately.
Casino Games
The game library was powered by the Aspire Global aggregation platform, pulling in titles from NetEnt, Microgaming, Play’n Go, Pragmatic Play, NextGen Gaming, and others. Slots dominated, backed by a solid selection of table games, video poker, jackpots, and a full live dealer suite — Live Blackjack, Live Roulette, and Live Baccarat were all well represented. The sportsbook covered live and pre-match markets across football, tennis, horse racing, and more.
Banking
Mr Play accepted Visa and Mastercard debit cards, PayPal, Apple Pay, Trustly, MuchBetter, Skrill, Neteller, and Paysafecard — credit cards excluded for UK players under UKGC rules. Minimum deposit was £10, and withdrawals took 2 to 6 business days depending on method, with Trustly and PayPal the faster options.
Mobile Experience
The site ran fully in-browser with no dedicated app. The responsive layout performed well on iOS and Android — casino, sportsbook, and cashier all adapted cleanly to mobile screens, and games loaded smoothly on both Wi-Fi and mobile data.
Customer Support
Support ran via live chat and email from 8am to 1am CET, 365 days a year — never quite 24/7, so late-night queries had to wait. An onsite help centre covered verification, banking, and bonus terms.
Verdict
Mr Play was a reliable mid-tier operator whose genuine advantage was the combined casino and sportsbook account. The three-deposit welcome package was generous in headline value, though 35x wagering and the £100 spin-winnings cap tempered it in practice. Its closure leaves that casino-plus-sports niche to others: Quickbet offers the closest like-for-like replacement with its dual casino/sports welcome offer, while Pub Casino and Betreels both pair a full casino with integrated sports betting.
