Nexx Edge Casino Shuts Down, Casino Saga Rebrands

Only several months after it set up shop, Nexx Edge Casino has been shut down. Right of July 6th, players arriving at Nexx Edge Casino were greeted with a message notifying them that the casino is no longer in operation and that all player accounts and funds were transferred to Jetbull Casino.

According to the message, all Nexx Edge players are supposed to receive detailed information from Jetbull on how to use their Nexx Edge account at the new location. Sadly, the short life of Nexx Edge's is not a new phenomenon in the iGaming world, as we have recently seen more online casinos that shut down only months after they launched, and others that shut down immediately without notice. Players running into any problems are encouraged to write the details in the OCR forums.
