You pay bills, book trains and watch football highlights on your phone, so spinning a few reels there makes sense. With the IWild app you open the full casino from the sofa, the bus or a queue, and the lobby, cashier and support chat sit one tap apart.
IWild accepts UK players aged 18 and over, and every amount in this guide uses pounds sterling. Look for the UKGC licence number in the footer before you deposit. If the number is missing, close the page.
What the IWild Casino App Gives You
The IWild casino app runs on the same account you use on desktop. You log in with the same details on laptop and phone and see the same balance, bonuses and game history. The lobby covers slots, roulette, blackjack, baccarat and live dealer tables, and the search bar finds a game by name or provider when you know what you want.
Turn your phone sideways for live roulette to get more room for the betting grid. Slots play fine in portrait, which suits one-handed spins on a commute.
IWild App Download for Android and iPhone
The IWild app download takes about two minutes on a decent connection. Start on the IWild website in both cases, so you land on the official listing and skip copycat apps with similar names.
Installing on Android
- Open the IWild website in Chrome on your phone.
- Tap the Android app link in the menu or footer.
- Tap Install on the Google Play page and wait for the download to finish.
- Open the app from your home screen, then log in or tap Join to register.
If IWild offers an APK file on its own site instead, switch on "Install unknown apps" for Chrome in your settings, install the file, and switch the setting off again. Skip APK files from any other site.
Installing on iPhone and iPad
- Open Safari and go to the IWild website.
- Tap the App Store badge in the menu or footer.
- Tap Get and confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or your Apple ID password.
- Find the IWild icon on your home screen and open it.
Supported Devices
Phones and tablets from the last few years run the IWild app without trouble. Check the store listing for the minimum Android or iOS version. An older handset can open the IWild mobile casino in its browser instead, with the same games and the same cashier.
Layout of the IWild Mobile Casino
The menu icon, search bar, Login button and Join button sit along the top of the screen. A banner for the current welcome offer comes next, followed by game categories such as slots, live casino and table games. Scroll to the footer for the licence details, the support link, payment logos and responsible gambling links.
Use the search bar rather than scrolling through hundreds of slot thumbnails. Typing three letters of a title gets you there faster than any category menu.
Registering and Depositing in the IWild App
Tap Join and fill in your full name, date of birth, home address, postcode, email address and mobile number. Choose a password you use nowhere else. IWild will ask for photo ID and proof of address, as every UKGC-licensed casino must, so upload both at sign-up and your first withdrawal goes through without a hold-up.
Open the cashier to deposit. UK casinos accept Visa and Mastercard debit cards, PayPal, Pay by Phone and Open Banking transfers, and the cashier shows which of them IWild supports for your account. Credit cards are off the table, because the UKGC banned them for gambling in April 2020. Pick a method, enter an amount in pounds and confirm. Withdrawals usually return to the method you deposited with, so choose one you are happy to cash out to.
Bonuses on the IWild Mobile Casino
Bonuses on the IWild mobile casino match what you see on desktop. Claim them from the promotions tab or the homepage banner, and read the terms under each offer before you opt in. A 10x wagering requirement on a £20 bonus means you wager £200 before you withdraw bonus winnings. A 35x requirement on the same bonus means £700. Check the maximum bet per spin too, because breaking that limit voids the bonus.
Security and Safer Gambling in the App
The IWild app encrypts your personal and payment data with SSL, and your phone adds its own locks. Switch on fingerprint or Face ID for the device, set a screen lock and log out on any shared tablet. Your username and password open your balance, so keep them to yourself.
Set limits before the first spin. The account settings let you choose deposit limits, time-outs and reality checks. GamStop blocks you from every UKGC-licensed site with one registration, and BeGambleAware or the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 offer free, confidential help if you worry about your gambling.
