Is it still open?
No, Claps has stopped trading. Every route now serves one notice reading “The project is currently on hold”, with no closure date and no instructions for withdrawing a balance.
Can I get my money out?
Claps has published no withdrawal route since it paused. Only the support email address is still live, and there is no live chat behind it.
What happened
The site was last seen operating in April 2026. Its Anjouan license runs to January 31, 2027, so the pause is the operator's own decision, not a regulator's.

Claps is now closed, the project is on hold and there is no sign of a return. That’s a shame, as it hit the crypto scene in late 2024 as a clean, fast crypto-first casino with 2,500-plus games, Evolution live tables and its own Originals.
The welcome ran to 3,000 USDT plus 165 free spins with fair 35x wagering, and the ongoing no-wager cashback was a genuine plus. None of it is claimable now. The reason for caution was the trust picture: Trustpilot now reads 2.5 from 26 reviews, against a below-average independent safety score and a withheld-payout complaint, on a brand barely a year old. Claps closed before any of it was settled.
What happened to Claps
Claps never announced a closure. The site was still operating in the Wayback Machine capture of April 16, 2026, and the last post on its official Telegram channel is dated April 17, 2026. Some time after that every route on claps.com began returning a single notice headed "CLAPS HITS PAUSE", reading "The project is currently on hold. We appreciate all the fun we had together." The date shown here is the last day we can evidence it running, not a date Claps published. There is no stated route to recover a remaining balance.
Our verdict
What's good
- No-wager cashback, fair 35x welcome
- Clean, fast, polished interface
- 12+ coins, quick crypto payouts
What's not
- New brand, Anjouan license only
- Below-average independent safety score
- A documented withheld-payout complaint
5 equally weighted criteria, scored by the tester who played - never by the operator. The overall score is their average, rounded to one decimal: 3.6 out of 5.
Disclaimer
Update: Claps has closed down. We have kept the original review below for reference.
Claps has stopped taking players. We re-checked on September 21, 2026 and every route on claps.com serves a single page headed “CLAPS Hits Pause”: “The project is currently on hold. We appreciate all the fun we had together.” There is no route in and no way to redeem a balance. If you want a crypto casino that is still running, we recommend one of these instead:
Trust & Safety
Licensing & Security
Claps is run by Redline Solutions Ltd under an Anjouan license, the standard lightweight setup for crypto casinos, so oversight is thin and recourse is limited. It is also new, live only since late 2024, with little long-term track record to lean on. There is no upfront KYC to play, and verification only appears for larger withdrawals, which preserves privacy until compliance kicks in.
Encryption & Security
The site runs over SSL, offers 2FA, and the crypto-first model means you can register with just a wallet and minimal data. Transactions are on-chain and traceable. The security basics are competent and standard for the segment; the open question here is not data safety but whether the operator behaves well around payouts, which is a trust issue rather than a technical one.
Reputation & Player Reviews
The signals genuinely conflict, so I will lay them out. Claps now holds 2.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot from 26 reviews, checked September 21, 2026. While it was trading it ran much higher, at 4.4 from around 100 reviews, with most praising fast cashouts and the clean interface. Against that, an independent safety reviewer rates it below average, there is a documented complaint about a roughly 1,190 euro withheld payout, and questions have been raised about how organic some of the positive reviews are. On a brand this young, that contradiction is exactly why I keep the score cautious rather than taking the Trustpilot figure at face value.
General Terms
The terms read fairly for the segment. The welcome carries 35x wagering, which matches common crypto-casino standards rather than the punishing 50x-plus you see at the worst sites, and the ongoing cashback is genuinely no-wager. Minimums are low. Read the bonus conditions before claiming, but the fine print here is more reasonable than most.
Section score
Trust & safety
66 / 100
This is a finely balanced call. I liked the site and my own small test ran clean, with a fast wallet flow and no friction. But I cannot ignore the contradiction: a 4.4 Trustpilot at the time on one hand, and on the other a below-average independent safety score plus a documented 1,190 euro withheld-payout complaint. On a brand barely a year old, I weight the warning signs heavily. So I score it cautiously, and I would keep any balance small until it has more of a track record.

Bonuses & Promotions
No welcome bonus - and that is not automatically a mark against it
This casino runs no first-deposit offer. Claps has stopped trading and has no welcome offer to claim. Every route on claps.com, including the promotions and bonus policy pages, returns a single brand notice headed "CLAPS HITS PAUSE" that reads "The project is currently on hold." Checked September 21, 2026. Claps has published no closure date and no instructions for withdrawing a remaining balance.
Welcome Bonus
The welcome ran up to 3,000 USDT plus 165 free spins on Gates of Olympus across a multi-part package, and it closed with the casino. The 35x wagering was fair by crypto standards, and the free-spin element gave it some genuine bite. It was one of the more reasonable big welcomes I looked at in this batch.
Ongoing Bonuses
This is where Claps impresses. The ongoing cashback comes with no wagering, so what lands is real, withdrawable money rather than locked bonus funds, and there are frequent tournaments on top. No-wager rewards are rarer than they should be, and they suggest an operator thinking about long-term value rather than just the headline.
VIP / Loyalty Program
A loyalty layer rewards regular play with perks and boosts that scale as you climb. It is functional and ties into the cashback, though the published detail is light and, given the brand newness, I would not grind toward long-term VIP status here just yet. Take it as a bonus rather than a reason to commit.
Wagering Requirements
35x on the welcome is the standard figure and a fair one, and crucially the cashback sits outside it with no wagering at all. That combination, a reasonable welcome plus genuinely no-wager ongoing rewards, is more player-friendly than most of the crypto casinos in this tier. The terms are not the problem at Claps.
Bonus Comparison Table
| Casino | Welcome | Wagering | No-Wager Rewards |
| Claps | 3,000 USDT + 165 FS | 35x | Yes (cashback) |
| mBit | Up to 4 BTC | 40x | No |
| Gamegram | Rakeback/cashback | Varies | Yes |
Section score
Bonuses & promos
72 / 100
The bonuses are a real bright spot. I would happily have taken the 3,000 USDT and 165 spins, because the 35x wagering was fair rather than punishing, and what won me over was the no-wager cashback. When I get money back as real, withdrawable funds instead of locked bonus credit, that tells me an operator is thinking long term. For me this is the strongest part of Claps.

Casino Games & Sports
Claps runs a mid-sized but well-chosen library of around 2,500 games from 47 providers, with Evolution live tables, a strong Originals and crash section, and a tied-in sportsbook. It is not the biggest lobby in crypto, but it is curated rather than bloated, and high-RTP options are highlighted.
Slots
The slot shelf covers the Pragmatic Play and Hacksaw favorites alongside a tail of studios, with hits like Gates of Olympus front and center. High-RTP titles are flagged, which I appreciate, and the games load fast on the polished interface. It is a smaller selection than the 5,000-plus giants, but the quality is there.
Table Games
The RNG table set covers the staples, Blackjack, Roulette and Baccarat, in a compact selection. Most players will use the live room for tables, but the basics are present for a quick hand. It is the thinnest part of the library, which is the trade-off for a curated rather than sprawling lobby.
Live Casino
Evolution anchors the live room, which is close to a guarantee of quality, with a full set of Blackjack, Roulette and Baccarat plus game shows. Streams were sharp and stable in my testing. It is one of the stronger parts of the casino and exactly what you want from a crypto site that takes its live offering seriously.
Arcade/Instant Win
The Claps Originals and crash section is a highlight, with fast, well-built instant-win titles and provably fair options. These quick-round games suit the crypto crowd, and Claps clearly put effort into them rather than treating them as filler. A genuine strength of the lobby.
Sports Betting
There is a tied-in sportsbook covering the major markets, but it is a secondary feature rather than the main event. It is handy to have betting and casino under one wallet, and it works fine, but if a serious book is your priority a dedicated crypto sportsbook will serve you better.
Games Comparison Table
| Casino | Games | Live Casino | Originals | Sportsbook |
| Claps | 2,500+ | Evolution | Yes | Tied-in |
| mBit | 8,000+ | Evolution, Ezugi | Yes | No |
| Donbet | 9,000+ | Evolution | Some | Full |
Section score
Games & sports
76 / 100
The library is smaller but smartly built. I spent about 20 minutes across the slots and the Evolution live room and never felt short of quality, and the Claps Originals crash games genuinely impressed me. Flagging high-RTP titles is a nice touch I wish more sites copied. The table-games tab is thin and the tied-in sportsbook is minor, so this is a casino-first site at heart.

Payments & Withdrawals
Deposits
Claps is crypto-first, taking 12 or more coins including BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB, SOL, TRX, LTC, XRP and DOGE. There is no fiat on-ramp, so you arrive with crypto. Deposits are instant with only the network fee, and the broad coin spread suits a crypto-native crowd.
| Method | Speed | Fees |
| USDT/stablecoins | Instant | Network only |
| BTC/ETH/SOL | Minutes | Network only |
Withdrawals
Crypto cashouts are quick when they go through, often within the hour, and KYC only appears for larger withdrawals, keeping things private until then. The honest caveat is the documented complaint about a withheld payout, which on a new brand I take seriously. My own small test cleared without issue, but I would keep cashouts modest until the wider track record settles.
| Method | Speed | Note |
| Crypto | Within the hour | KYC on larger amounts |
Withdrawal Limits
Routine crypto cashouts move freely, and the KYC gate appears on larger amounts. Published limits are thin, and given the one withheld-payout report, the prudent approach on a brand this new is to withdraw in sensible chunks and verify early rather than build a big balance and test it all at once.
Section score
Payments & payouts
76 / 100
Deposits are effortless, and I funded with USDT in under 2 minutes. Crypto payouts are quick when they work, and keeping KYC off until larger withdrawals is a nice touch for privacy. What holds my score back is that single documented withheld-payout complaint, which on a year-old brand I will not gloss over. My own small cashout was clean, so I would happily play, but I would keep my withdrawals modest and verify early rather than trust it with a big balance.

User Experience
Website Design and UI
The interface is clean, fast and nicely customizable, with stable play and a polished feel that belies the brand newness. Navigation is logical, the lobby loads quickly, and demo play works without an account, which is a genuinely useful way to try games before committing. On design alone, Claps is a pleasure.
Mobile App
There is no standalone app, but the mobile browser keeps full functionality and the customizable interface translates well to a phone. I played slots and Originals on mobile without anything feeling cut down. For a wallet-first crypto casino, the browser experience is the natural fit and it works well.
Customer Service
Support runs through live chat and the usual channels, and for routine questions it was responsive enough in my testing. Given the withheld-payout complaint, the real test is how it handles a serious dispute, and there is not yet enough track record to judge that with confidence. Adequate day to day, unproven when it counts.
Responsible Gambling
Responsible-gambling provision is basic, with limited self-serve tools and no meaningful regulator behind them, which is typical for an Anjouan-licensed crypto site. If you want firm guardrails, set them yourself before you start. For a new brand, this is an area I would like to see developed.

User experience
66 / 100
As software, Claps punches above its age. The interface is clean and customizable, I played on my phone for 15 minutes with no friction, and demo play let me try games before depositing. Two things keep me measured: support is fine for routine questions but unproven on real disputes, which matters given that withheld-payout report, and the responsible-gambling tools are thin. A polished experience, with the caveats you would expect from a year-old, lightly licensed site.

Final Verdict
Claps has made a strong first impression. For a casino barely a year old it feels polished and fast, the no-wager cashback and fair 35x welcome are genuinely player-friendly, the Evolution live room and Claps Originals are good, and crypto payouts are quick. If it keeps this up, it could become a real fixture.
The reason I am cautious is the trust picture. A 4.4 Trustpilot, since fallen to 2.5 from 26 reviews, sat awkwardly against a below-average independent safety score, a documented withheld-payout complaint, and questions about how organic some reviews are, all on a brand with no long-term record and only an Anjouan license. None of that makes Claps a bad casino, and my own testing was clean. But until it proves itself over time, I would keep stakes and balances small, claim the no-wager rewards, and skip nothing more than you can afford to wait on. Promising, but unproven. So.
Final Overall Rating: 3.6/5
How registering worked at Claps Casino
- You signed up at Claps Casino with an email address
- You verified the email address to complete the sign-up
- Claps could ask for identity documents at this stage
- A crypto deposit claimed the 170% match. The offer closed with the casino
Claps Casino FAQ
Is Claps Casino legit?
Claps is a real crypto casino launched in late 2024 by Redline Solutions Ltd under an Anjouan license, and it held a 4.4 Trustpilot from around 100 reviews while it traded. That rating is now 2.5 from 26 reviews. The caution is that an independent safety reviewer rates it below average, there is a documented complaint about a withheld payout, and questions have been raised about some positive reviews, so treat it as promising but unproven.
What is the Claps welcome bonus?
New players get up to 3,000 USDT plus 165 free spins on Gates of Olympus across a multi-part package, with 35x wagering, which is fair for a crypto casino. The ongoing no-wager cashback is arguably the better long-term value.
How fast are Claps withdrawals?
Crypto withdrawals are quick when they go through, often within the hour, and KYC only appears for larger cashouts, keeping play private until then. The one documented complaint about a withheld payout is the reason to stay cautious and keep withdrawals modest until you have tested the loop yourself.
Which cryptocurrencies does Claps accept?
Claps takes 12 or more coins, including BTC, ETH, USDT, BNB, SOL, TRX, LTC, XRP and DOGE. It is crypto-first with no fiat on-ramp, so you arrive with crypto in a wallet. Deposits are instant.
How many games does Claps have?
Around 2,500 games from 47 providers, covering slots, Evolution live tables, table games and a strong Claps Originals and crash section, plus a tied-in sportsbook. The library is mid-sized but well chosen, with high-RTP options highlighted.
Does Claps offer no-wager bonuses?
Yes, and it is a genuine plus. The ongoing cashback comes with no wagering, so what you get back is real, withdrawable money rather than locked bonus funds. That is rarer than it should be and a real point in Claps favour.
Does Claps have a sportsbook?
There is a tied-in sportsbook alongside the casino, covering major markets. It is a secondary feature rather than the main event, so treat Claps as a casino first with betting attached.
What are the risks with Claps?
It is new, holds only an Anjouan license, and the signals are mixed: the Trustpilot rating, now 2.5 from 26 reviews, sits against a below-average independent safety score, a withheld-payout complaint and doubts about review authenticity. The product is good, but the trust picture is unsettled, so keep stakes and balances small for now.
