Cafe Casino Dominates Fast Payouts for US Players in 2024, According to HonestOnlineCasinos.com Report
In the fast-paced world of online gambling, speed is everything—especially when it comes to payouts. As U.S. players become increasingly discerning about where they place their bets, the ability to withdraw winnings quickly has become a critical factor in choosing a casino.
According to the latest bi-annual report from HonestOnlineCasinos.com, Cafe Casino has once again proven to be the gold standard for fast payouts, particularly for those using Bitcoin. On the flip side, laggards like Planet 7 continue to disappoint, with payout times dragging on for up to nine days, even for traditionally quick methods like e-wallets.
The HonestOnlineCasinos.com team spent the first half of 2024 meticulously gathering data from forums, player feedback, and direct testing to evaluate the payout performance of various online casinos. The findings leave no doubt: Cafe Casino is miles ahead of the competition when it comes to delivering on its promise of lightning-fast payouts in the unregulated US markets.
Cafe Casino: Leading the Pack
Cafe Casino has built a strong reputation for providing a seamless gambling experience, and its payout speed is a significant part of that appeal. The casino’s automated cashier system, particularly when coupled with Bitcoin transactions, is unmatched. According to the report, players using Bitcoin at Cafe Casino often see their winnings reflected in their accounts within an hour or two of initiating a withdrawal.
“Speed and reliability are what set Cafe Casino apart,” says an HonestOnlineCasinos.com spokesperson, John Twinbell. “Our data consistently shows that this casino not only processes payments quickly but also does so with remarkable consistency. In an industry where payout times can vary wildly, that kind of reliability is rare and highly valued by players.”
The report highlights numerous instances from online forums where players praised Cafe Casino for its fast and hassle-free withdrawals. “I’ve never had a payout take more than two hours with Bitcoin,” one player noted, a sentiment echoed by many others. It’s clear that for U.S. players who prioritize quick access to their winnings, Cafe Casino remains the top choice.
Planet 7: Still Struggling
While Cafe Casino is setting new standards, the same cannot be said for Planet 7, which continues to frustrate its players with painfully slow payouts. Despite the industry’s trend towards faster transactions, Planet 7 seems stuck in the past, with payout times extending up to nine days even for e-wallets—methods typically known for their speed.
“Our report paints a disappointing picture for Planet 7,” the spokesperson continued. “We observed countless complaints from players waiting over a week for their withdrawals to be processed. In a time when many casinos are processing payments within hours, this kind of delay is simply unacceptable.”
HonestOnlineCasinos.com’s findings suggest that the delays at Planet 7 are not just isolated incidents but a systemic issue. Player forums are rife with stories of frustration, with some users claiming they had to wait nearly two weeks to receive their funds. This lag in processing times can be particularly damaging for the casino’s reputation, especially as competitors continue to streamline their payout processes.
The Importance of Fast Payouts
For U.S. players, fast payouts are more than just a convenience—they’re a sign of trustworthiness and efficiency. Top casinos understand this, leveraging technology like automated cashier systems and cryptocurrency transactions to ensure that players can access their winnings as quickly as possible. On the other hand, the slow payout times seen at Planet 7 can create a sense of uncertainty and frustration, leading players to seek out more reliable alternatives.
As HonestOnlineCasinos.com concludes in its report, players are increasingly gravitating towards casinos that respect their time and money. With its proven track record of fast Bitcoin payouts, Cafe Casino continues to lead the way, setting a high bar for the rest of the industry. Meanwhile, laggards like Planet 7 may need to seriously rethink their approach if they hope to keep pace in an increasingly competitive market.

This year’s Self-Exclusion Day campaign was dubbed #TakeBackControl2024.
GAMSTOP CEO Fiona Palmer said: “The level of support The New Saints provided for Self-Exclusion Day has been above and beyond.

As a club, we are always looking for ways to support our players, fans, and the wider community. This partnership is a crucial step in continuing that mission.”
