Retro review: PAF.FI

It is the year 2006 and there are already many different casinos operating online. However, there is only one online casino for Finns alone, Paf.fi, which has been offering online gambling since 1999 and is already a well-known operator on Swedish ships.

Paf does not offer bonuses and hours of free play money, as many of its foreign competitors do. Still, it can be argued that the casino is a little ahead of its time as its games can be played on a Nokia mobile phone by downloading the game to the phone. Although the money must first be transferred via computer via Paf’s website, fortunately the deposit can be conveniently made with an online banking fee. So this was long before many competitors had even heard of EUteller or GluePay (now Trustly). Winnings at the casino pay out to their players very quickly and withdrawals are back to their own bank account within usually one banking day.

Paf.fi is a really big spike in the meat of the Finnish gaming monopoly. Veikkaus and RAY will do their utmost to prevent Paf’s gambling activities. Although the Åland’s gaming operator cannot be prevented from operating in mainland Finland, the casino still offers its services to Finns, although its marketing was hampered in every possible way. For the time being, there is a decision of the Supreme Court against the Ålandic Paf, according to which Paf is not allowed to market its services in mainland Finland.

10 years ago, Paf’s range of games wasn’t very comprehensive yet, but betting opportunities were fairly well there and the casino game offerings focused on traditional table games and a few dozen games from Paf’s own game maker EGET, the most famous being Cash and Carry, Fisherman’s Jackpot, Casino Island and Fruit Slot.

Paf today!

Paf still has the same old games, even new versions, but the casino’s old games still stand out as the most popular games, even though the range of games has grown to include NetEntertainment, Play’n Go and Microgaming. As a nice addition, Paf’s selection also includes games from the shared jackpot network, so today the jackpots can rise to several million euros and after all, one Paf player has won as much as 17.8 million euros. This huge win came from the Mega Fortune slot machine and is the biggest online jackpot ever won, according to the Guinness Book of Records!

The revamped mobile casino is also part of Paf’s offering, and today you no longer need to download games separately, but can play them directly on your mobile device without any downloads. Deposits and withdrawals are successful with all devices and numerous different deposit methods.

Paf has always stayed well on the crest, being ahead of his time 10 years ago. Today, the Åland website is still a fairly modern gambling site. The bonus offer should be a little bigger, but as Pafia has been banned from marketing in mainland Finland by a decision of the Supreme Court, it will not be able to offer bonuses or free spins to new customers. Such would be considered for marketing by the nihilistic authorities of our state. Admittedly, Paf players can take part in all the ongoing promotions and promotions that are almost as good as the first deposit bonus.
