The casino thrill is a real thing. Everyone who’s visited a casino can confirm. Over the course of time, online casinos became a big thing, and that casino thrill became easily accessible trough a device connected to the internet.
With so many online casinos on the horizon, a group of people saw a market gap consisting of players wanting something more in return from their casino experience.
What we, the people of Ekstrapoint saw, is that players enjoy online casino games, but what really makes them happy is rewarding their loyalty.
This was the sole reason why Ekstrapoint was created.
We found a formula that would keep happy players. It’s simple. We offer free slots based on a competition model against other Ekstrapoint players. We review casinos and post the latest and most competitive offers. But most importantly, we reward you each time you play our competitions, you sign up to our partner casinos, and we give you the possibility to buy real casino bonus packages with your rewarded points.
We are on a mission
In 2018, we launched Ekstrapoint to offer each player and iGaming operator a live product that they wanted, but never got the chance to use.
So, 5 years forward, Ekstrapoint is a community with over 100.000 players, 2+ billion points rewarded and an Excellent Truspilot score.
Our mission is not easy, and for sure is not going to be achieved fast. But, we are here and we are ready to work and to see it realized.
We want to see Ekstrapoint as the social iGaming network where players and operators enjoy being.
The people behind Ekstrapoint
Ekstrapoint’s story starts back in 2018.
An investor group consisting of businessmen with prior experience in the iGaming industry decided to bring to life one old idea: a loyalty and reward system for the entire online casino world.
Vita Media Group, a two time Casino Affiliate of the Year by the EGR Operator Awards, is the company that led the efforts to bring Ekstrapoint to life.
Fast forward, the already expanded Ekstrapoint universe is home to the most thrilling offers for casino players, detailed casino reviews, free and modern slot games, a lot of loyalty rewards that convert to real cash, and much more.

Loyalty is precious: How are we different than anything else in online casino?
It is estimated that there are over 2000 online casinos in the world, and the number is only going up. With so many casinos to choose from, how does one make a decision?
They all look nice. They all have good offers most of the time. But, are they happy only when you come trough the door for the first time, or each next time when you log in, and want to test your luck?
This is a question we had for a long time, and it is something we wanted to give an answer to.
So, we built Ekstrapoint.
You can say it is a loyalty and reward platform. Or a cashback program for casinos.
The beauty of it is that it’s exactly that, and much more. And completely free.
So, in a nutshell. Ekstrapoint is not really an online casino, although it has some of the most popular slot games, and you can play for free. We’re more of a match-and-pass app. We find online casinos, and we list the best possible offers in the moment. We offer plenty of ways to win points trough various actions on Ekstrapoint, and we reward you for each action. And then, you simply go to our shop, and use those points like real cash for extra casino fun.

Ekstrapoint is not an online casino. However, that doesn’t reduce the role Ekstrapoint has in online casinos.
As a responsible stakeholder in the iGaming industry, Ekstrapoint will always stand by the standards of responsible gambling, as gambling should only be seen as entertainment, and not nothing more.
With over 100,000 players currently playing on Ekstrapoint, there is a massive responsibility for each and every one of them. Therefore, we developed Ekstrapoint foundations of Responsible Gambling:
- Gambling is never a source of income.
- Gambling should only be pursued as a form of entertainment.
- When gambling, you must use a limited amount of money only! Be prepared that you might lose this money!
- Gambling must never be an escape from real-life problems and challenges.
We strongly advise each player on Ekstrapoint to behave responsibly and in accordance to our foundations of Responsible Gambling.
If you feel that gambling causes you anxiety, or deteriorates your private life, please immediately seek professional help!
