SugarHouse Casino’s parent company, Rush Street Gaming has a $50 billion real-estate portfolio of land-based casinos, hotels and resorts.  The company has founded Rush Street Interactive with the top online-gaming talent to spearhead investment and growth of its online gambling operations.  This commitment brought SugarHouse to be the first to launch a sportsbook in Pennsylvania, and the ongoing efforts, investment and commitment SugarHouse Casino is putting into partnerships with the top game and technology providers to supply the safest, most reliable online-casino experience in New Jersey.

SugarHouse Casino offers a good choice of deposit and withdrawal methods.  If you are looking for online methods such as Paypal, Online Banking (ACH), credit cards or even cash at the Golden Nugget Casino cage.  So, there are many methods available for both deposit and withdrawal at SugarHouse Casino.

SugarHouse Casino offers a first-deposit bonus of 100% match, up to $250.  Meaning that for every $1 you deposit, SugarHouse will add a $1 play-money bonus to your account, up to a maximum of $250 of bonus play money.  So for example, if you deposit $100, you will instantly have $200 to play with, and so on.

Although some online casinos in New Jersey offer higher first-deposit bonuses initially, many times these will be on a lower match percentage (for example, with a 50% match, as offered by several other online casinos in New Jersey).  So you will end up needing to deposit a lot more to get to the same bonus amounts as in SugarHouse Casino.  Reading the terms and conditions, note that this bonus play-money can be redeemed into cash if playing it through online 1x time, which is better than nearly any online casino in New Jersey.  In addition, note that this play-through requirement is only done on Slots, Blackjack and Live Dealer games.

So if looking at the whole picture of high match-up percentage and a 1x wager requirement, we find the first-deposit bonus of SugarHouse to be very competitive in New Jersey online-casino standards.

The Game selection in SugarHouse Casino is one of the best in the New Jersey online-casino marketplace.  We found a great library with over 550 Slot games.  And with top game providers such as Bally, WMS, IGT and NetEnt, you will find well-known land-based titles such as Da Vinci Diamonds and Siberian Storm, as well as leading online games like Narcos and Dead or Alive.

The Table Games at SugarHouse Casino also provide a very good selection, with 9 Roulette, 8 Blackjack and 14 Video Poker variations for example, which is way above the average online casino in New Jersey.

SugarHouse Casino falls a bit short in its Live Dealer section (powered by Evolution Gaming), that for some reason provides very few game titles.  We also found only one Progressive-Jackpot Slot game (Divine Fortune), which we found strange, compared to the huge selection of slots SugarHouse Casino has on offer.

User Interface and Navigation

SugarHouse Casino has a user interface that doesn’t only look good, but is also functional and does the job it’s supposed to in a very effective way.  The site looks very clean with a white background and the SugarHouse blue logo and blue and white branding.  A top menu provides you with the well-needed user info such as “Promotions”, “Rewards” and “Help Center”.  We gave SugarHouse Casino a big plus for displaying these options right on top, as opposed to having them hidden like other New Jersey online casinos.

And then from the header down, SugarHouse Casnio shows it knows what an online casino is made of: it’s all about the games.  A no-nonsense game search-bar is bolted right above the games, where you can search for a game by title, and drill down to look for game type, popularity, and even the game provider the games were designed by!  Well done on helping us find the games we want, when we want them SugarHouse Casino!

SugarHouse Casino’s mobile options provide both a mobile-browser version that is customized and adjusted to access from your smartphone or mobile device, as well as a mobile app that can be downloaded to your phone or device.  Apps are available for both iOS and Android, so you can play on the SugarHouse Casino from pretty much any smartphone or tablet you have.

Both app and mobile-customized browser versions of SugarHouse Casino stay very true to the main, desktop client of the casino in terms of features and functionality.  With over 250 games available on the different mobile versions, and an app that is very savvy, and in terms of functionality probably ranks as one of the New Jersey online-casino market’s best, SugarHouse Casino has you covered on the mobile front as well.

There wasn’t much in store in terms of casino promotions at SugarHouse Casino.  There is a Daily Free Bingo promo, where you can play free bingo games for a chance to win bonus money.  And also a $1,000,000 Mega Pick, which is a Sportsbook weekly draw with a chance to win up to $1 million.

The SugarHouse Casino Promotions section was full of different ads about the reward points, offers for the land-based casinos, sportsbook offers, etc.  However there was very little to be found about casino promotions.

Loyalty

The SugarHouse Casino’s loyalty program is called the iRush Rewards.  You will earn points by playing casino games for real money, and advance through the loyalty tiers as you accumulate more points.

Points will be earned based on the Return-To-Player (RTP) % of games as follows:

• 95% RTP: $5 wagered earns 1 point.
• 5% RTP: $10 wagered earns 1 point.
• 99% RTP: $25 wagered earns 1 point.

So basically, the games that give you a biggest statistical chance to win will require you to wager more money in order to get points.

As you earn points per month, you will climb through the iRush Tiers as follows:

• Tier 1: 40 points
• Tier 2: 160 points
• Tier 3: 400 points
• Tier 4: 760 points
• Tier 5: 1,400 points
• Tier 6: 2,800 points
• Tier 7: 5,200 points
• Tier 8: 8,800 points
• Tier 9: 13,600 points
• Tier 10: 20,000 points
• Elite: By Invite Only

As with most rewards programs, the iRush Rewards plan offers more benefits and prizes as you advance through the ranks.  Goodies include VIP gifts, dedicated support, exclusive events, and points to be used in the land-based properties on food, drinks, upgrades and even accommodation at Rivers Casino.

One nice touch that makes the iRush Rewards different than loyalty programs of other New Jersey online casinos is the Prize Wheel that you get to spin every time you move up a tier.  A spin gives you a guaranteed win of a bonus that can get to hundreds of dollars.  We really liked that one.
