GiddyUp will be the newest parimutuel powered games site to launch, where you will be able to play a variety of casino-style games, whose results are based on wagers placed on real horse races from around the world.
For this site, we’ve created a preliminary GiddyUp review to look at the potential features it might have, how it will work, and what you will be able to do with this new gaming app. We do have some concrete information from the developers, which we will also share and give our thoughts on.
GiddyUp will NOT be your average online casino or horse race betting site. Instead, it’s a parimutuel powered gaming site. This means that it will feature casino-style games such as slots and video poker that you will be able to play using credits that you purchase with USD.
Instead of the game having a RNG (Random Number Generator) system to determine the outcome of gameplay, the results are based on live horse races from across the globe. Simply put, when you purchase credits at GiddyUp, you are purchasing a random mix of horse race wagers as part of a parimutuel pool (i.e. your wagering against other customers and NOT the house). The potential types of wagers placed in the background for your credit purchases can be any of the following:
We are confident that this will be a legit parimutuel gaming site, as although we can’t create any concrete GiddyUp ratings, we have information from the parent company relating to things like licensing and security.
GiddyUp will operate with an Advanced Deposit Wagering license provided by the Oregon Racing Commission. This is the required license type for a site to legally offer parimutuel powered games in the US. At the time of creating this GiddyUp review, the site will be available to anyone over 21 who lives in AL, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, KS, ND, NE, NM, NY, OK, RI, WI, and WY.
We know that the GiddyUp app will have excellent security and prioritize player safety. We can expect standard features like SSL encryption and HTTPS connectivity, but there will also be active geoblocking features to make sure that only legal US customers can sign up here. It’s also been stated that there will be verification requirements such as providing personal details, plus full KYC ID checks where needed.
A core feature of GiddyUp PMG is that you will be able to deposit money into your account, and then use your deposit money to buy credit packages. As we stated above, when you make a credit purchase, in the background, GiddyUp will link your purchase to actual horse race wagers via their parimutuel wager system.
In terms of accepted payment methods, we can only confirm credit cards at this time, and there may be a fee for using them. But, the operator has also stated that other payment methods will be available so we will update this article when more information is available.
As we cannot yet create a GiddyUp login or review the site first-hand, we do not know what support options will be available. From our experience with similar sites and apps though, we presume that there will be email support and a help center as a minimum. Hopefully, there will also be a live chat which provides a more direct support option.
From our testing and experiences using other parimutuel powered gaming sites, we expect that GiddyUp will have an emphasis on mobile gaming. It is common for these operators to not provide a fully functioning desktop website at all, and any site they have could just be a landing page from where you can download the smartphone apps.
We have seen a few preliminary screenshots of GiddyUp and it certainly looks to be mobile-orientated. There will most likely either be a mobile-responsive browser site, or an actual downloadable app that you will be able to get from the Google Play Store or App Store. You can expect a simple interface with excellent usability, and from what we’ve seen, beginners and newcomers to parimutuel gaming sites should be able to get to grips with how it works quickly.
You can also presume that if it’s a mobile-first operator, that the games they provide will be optimized for mobile use. This means that you’ll probably be able to use them in either landscape or portrait mode by tilting your phone, to give you the best gameplay orientation. We are definitely excited to download and try the app so we can test it and create more substantial GiddyUp ratings.
We do not know what games will be available yet, but it’s important to remember that you will be playing casino-style games, NOT making horse-racing wagers. Additionally, the games will not have RNG systems - instead, the results are determined by the parimutuel linked-wagers that were assigned to your credits when you bought them.
Based on our research and testing of other sites like GiddyUp, we expect a varied collection of casino-style games which should include video slots, video poker, and fun instant arcade games. We presume the site will start with around 100+ games, but then expand their collection over time.
You can check out our initial GiddyUp promo code review for a detailed breakdown of the bonuses this site will offer, but we will give you a preview here to start.
We know that there will be a superb no deposit bonus at GiddyUp where new customers can sign up and complete account verification to get $5 in free credits. We think this is a fantastic introduction to the site, and from the information we’ve been given, any winnings you get from your $5 free credits will be withdrawable as a cash balance without any additional wagering requirements.
GiddyUp will have a range of bonuses and features for existing customers too, including:
Similar to how sweepstakes casinos operate, GiddyUp will provide legitimate customers with a small amount of daily credits so you can continue to enjoy the games. You can also expect a series of daily challenges which may involve playing specific games, or making a set number of slot spins, for example. From these daily quests you will have the chance of winning cash rewards.
You will also be able to get your friends involved via the referral scheme and from what we can see, it has a simple setup. Give your friends your unique referral link, and if they sign up and deposit $20 or more, you will get a $10 referral cash bonus.
We hope you’ve found this initial GiddyUp review useful, and you have a better understanding of what this app will offer. We can’t wait to see the final product - it should be incredibly exciting, and we think that parimutuel powered gaming sites like GiddyUp will only increase in popularity as more people learn about them.
GiddyUp should be a great new entry in this space, with a proper ADW license, superb security and player protection, and an interesting behind-the-scenes parimutuel wagering system with a good mix of horse race wager types. As soon as the site goes live, we will update this review, and you will be able to click the links and banners on this page to sign up in the future.
This will be a parimutuel powered gaming site. You’ll be able to deposit USD, and then use that money to buy credits. When you buy credits, GiddyUp will assign those credits to a random selection of parimutuel horse racing wagers on real-world horse races. You will then play different casino-style games to reveal the outcome of those wagers and potentially win prizes.
It probably will be! However, the site or app isn’t live yet, so we haven’t been able to do any testing. However, from a legitimacy standpoint, the operator will have an Advanced Deposit Wagering license from the Oregon Racing Commission. Also, there’s no need for anything like RNG system checks, as the outcomes of games will be decided by the parimutuel wagers that are assigned to your account when you buy credits.
It should be, yes. We have had information from the parent company which points towards the app having geoblocking features to make sure only people in legal regions can access it. There will also be a range of verification processes to protect customers from fraud, and for regulatory compliance. We presume there will be standard security features like SSL and HTTPS also.
It’s expected there will be a standard registration process where you will have to provide a range of personal details such as your name, address, and date of birth. Additional verification will also be needed such as email and/or SMS, plus potentially a full KYC check where you have to upload ID documents.
