Harrah's launches long-awaited online casino

4 December 2009

By Vin Narayanan

Harrah's Interactive Entertainment looks like it has "soft launched" its long-awaited online casino -- and it has a familiar face attached to it.

The new casino is named Caesars Casino Online and bears the unique black and gold Caesars branding.

Caesars Casino Online is powered by Dragonfish and appears to offer a variety of games, including roulette, craps, Caribbean Poker, three-card poker, video poker, video slots and blackjack.

Caesars Casino Online is offering a 100% welcome bonus for up to £500. As of now, it is not accepting players from the U.S. or Germany. Players from the United States are redirected to a page that lists Caesars' land-based gaming properties.

It is also offering comp points based on how much players bet. It is not clear if the comp points system will be tied into Harrah's Total Rewards.

U-ffiliates is the casino's affiliate program.
