Native American tribes require federal recognition and federal approval before building a casino under the Indian Gaming Regulation Act. The Catawba received federal recognition in 1993 and is the only federally recognized tribe in South Carolina.
In September 2013 the Catawba tribe took its first major step towards building a casino when it filed an application with the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs for a land trust and casino rights on 16 acres near Kings Mountain, North Carolina. The ancestral homeland of the Catawba stretched from South Carolina, through North Carolina and into southern Virginia.
Since the Catawba Indian Nation filed its application in 2013, there was five years of delays and no action by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). This prompted South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham to introduce the bill in March 2019 to bypass the BIA and approve the application by an act of Congress.

The Cherokee Indians claim the approval by the Interior Department to build the casino was illegal and the efforts of the Catawba Nation, which is headquartered in South Carolina, is simply a 'land grab'.
The Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians have been the only tribe with casinos in North Carolina. The tribe owns Harrah's Cherokee Casino and Harrah's Cherokee Valley River Hotel & Casino, both located in Cherokee County, North Carolina.

Federal Bill introduced to protect NC Land for Catawba Two Kings Casino
October 30, 2020
A bipartisan bill was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives last month to add Congressional support to the decision by the U.S. Interior Department to transfer North Carolina land owned by the Catawba Indian Tribe of South Carolina into federal trust for the purpose of building the Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort in Kings Mountain, NC.
The intent of House Bill HR 8255 is to stop the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians from preventing the construction of the Catawba casino. The bill reaffirms the Interior Department's decision to transfer 17 acres of land in Kings Mountain, North Carolina, into federal trust for the Catawba Tribe. The trust removes state jurisdiction over the casino land and places it under the authority of the Federal Indian Gaming Regulatory Act.
Bill HR 8255 titled the Catawba Indian Nation Lands Act was introduced by Rep. GK Butterfield (D-North Carolina) and co-sponsored by four Democrats and three Republicans

New North Carolina casino is named 'Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort'
September 3, 2020
Last Friday the Catawba Indian Nation announced the official name of the new casino under construction at Kings Mountain, NC. The casino name will be 'Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort'.
Catawba Chief Bill Harris told the press:
'Catawba Two Kings Casino Resort celebrates our rich history and hopeful future in our ancestral lands in North Carolina - where our people were established hundreds of years ago, as the names Catawba River, Catawba County and Catawba College suggest.
'The name pays tribute to the 18th century Catawba Chief King Hagler and to the City of Kings Mountain, which will be home to the new casino resort. It also symbolizes the unique relationship that the Catawba people have historically had - and will continue to strengthen going forward - with fellow residents of the region.'
The logo for the new casino depicts the two kings: King Hagler and Kings Mountain.

August 23, 2020

Last Tuesday the Buncombe County Board of Commissioners voted 6-1 to pass a resolution denouncing the Catawba casino. The commissioners fear the new casino will harm the revenues and jobs provided by the two casinos of the Eastern Band of Cherokee.

In a letter to the tribe from Tara Sweeney, assistant secretary of the Department's Bureau of Indian Affairs, the government will take 50 acres of Catawba-owned land into federal trust with 17 acres dedicated for the casino and 33 acres for related development.
The Eastern Band of the Cherokees, owners of Harrah's Cherokee Casino Resort, are upset and opposed to this decision. The federal letter addresses this issue in these statements:
The Catawba tribe has 'both a tribal population and governmental presence in North Carolina where the site is located.'
'Though the Site falls within an area where another tribe may assert aboriginal ties, that fact does not detract from the Nation's ties to the land.'
Catawba Chief William Harris added in a press conference:
'[The tribe] is very thankful for the department's decision to take this land into trust, enabling us to achieve the promise of self-determination though economic development.'
'It's a righting of a wrong. We have now regained what once belonged to us.'

Proposed Kings Mountain Casino gets environmental assessment
December 28, 2019
The Catawba Indian Nation is nearing an important milestone in their quest to build an Indian gaming casino in Kings Mountain, North Carolina. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has finished its Environmental Assessment of the proposed casino site at Dixon School Road and I-85 Exit 5.
The study is a 674-page report published on Dec. 18. It covers the environmental impact of building a tribal casino and entertainment complex on the 16-acre site. Local residents now have 30 days to review and make comments on the report. The Bureau of Indian Affairs will then decide whether to move forward and transfer the land into trust of the Catawba Indian Nation.
This will be a major step forward for the tribe if the transfer is approved by the BIA. The timeframe to build and open the casino could then be two to three years.

New Hope for Catawba Casino at Kings Mountain NC
March 16, 2019
After five years of no action by the Bureau of Indian Affairs on the casino application submitted in 2013 by the Catawba Indian Nation, Sen. Linsay Graham (R-SC) has introduced a Senate bill to bypass the agency and approve placing the Catawba casino site into federal trust by an act of Congress.
The two North Carolina senators, Thom Tillis and Richard Burr, both co-sponsor the bill.
'The Catawba Nation has been treated unfairly by the federal government, and our legislation rights that wrong,' said Sen. Graham. 'I hope this legislation will be quickly passed through the Congress and signed into law so we can once and for all bring resolution to this issue.'
Within hours of the bill's introduction, the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians issued a statement of opposition. The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians is the only federally-recognized tribe in North Caolina.
'The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians' (EBCI) centuries-long North Carolina tradition has created a lasting partnership with the state to provide a strong future for generations through health care, education and business. While the tribe respects and encourages progress for other Native American communities, including South Carolina's Catawba Indian Nation, the recent filing of a bill in the US Senate to give North Carolina land to the South Carolina tribe for an off-reservation casino is nothing more than a modern day land grab by the federal government of Cherokee aboriginal lands. This action circumvents the existing process for the Catawba Indian Nation to acquire lands in South Carolina, is unprecedented in US history, and a federal government bully tactic that should not be part of modern governing. We encourage the Catawba Indian Nation to go through the same process in their home state of South Carolina that the EBCI did in North Carolina to build their business - to develop their on-reservation economy as it should be - in their community. Doing it the right way will ensure they are able to take care of their members and support their local community as we've done for years in North Carolina.'

If a partnership is able to be formed, the Catawba Indian Nation will be able to provide a proven and regulated structure to their project. The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians are the operators of the only other tribal casino in the state. They own the Harrah's Cherokee.

If you are already aware of what to expect from a new casino, just sign-up on one of these sites and start gambling!
If you have never played in a new casino before, you might want to continue reading while we break down their advantages and disadvantages as well as how to get started without getting scammed.
Advantages
Unique PromotionsIt is not uncommon for new casinos to bring innovative ideas to the industry. When it comes to promotions, this is a great thing because there are many ways a promotions program can be structured and there is currently a lot of room for improvement in the industry.
For players who love bonus hunting, the fact that there is a little bit of extra risk in trying a new site does not outweigh the adrenaline rush of finding a great bonus that no other site can top. Not only will unique promotions provide you with a breath of fresh air, but they could also potentially give you more cash back than you used to get from your old online casino.
Cutting-Edge GraphicsSome people say that changing your surroundings occasionally can improve your mood and overall well-being. If this is true in real life, then it is true on a computer too and certainly applies to casino sites.
What this translates to in the online casino world is that if you play on the same site all the time, you might start getting sick of the graphics and the software. This should be enough incentive to always be on the lookout for casinos with cutting-edge graphics that are hard to get tired of.
The fact is, an online casino that is new is more likely to have trailblazing graphics than a veteran casino that has been around for decades. This is because these old sites sometimes get set in their ways and get comfortable with the way things are after making so much money.
Modern GamesThere are constantly new forms of gambling being invented. These changes can come in the form of new games, or they can appear as new variations of games that already exist.
The best place to look when trying to find these new games is obviously on a new internet casino. The odds are that a new casino is more likely to have an up-to-date game selection because they have an uphill battle ahead of them and they want to stand out in as many ways as possible. These places are looking for any edge they can get on the rest of the industry and having the newest games possible certainly helps that cause.
Disadvantages
Lack of ReliabilityAs you probably already assumed, reliability can be tough to find in a new casino site. Even the ones that appear to be legit early on in their existence sometimes end up crashing and burning.
Unfortunately, sites that find themselves failing sometimes turn to stealing as a desperate last-minute cash grab. We can find comfort in the fact that not all sites are like this, though. As soon as a site is caught stealing or doing shady things, they are blacklisted in the gambling community and eventually go out of business.
Can’t Gamble as HighDue to the previously mentioned lack of reliability involved with most new sites, it is risky to keep a ton of money on these sites. Therefore, if we do not have a ton of money on the site, we cannot gamble as high as we normally would.
This might be annoying for some high-stakes gamblers since they will probably need to make their usual large bets to have any fun. Regardless of this, we recommend starting small and then gradually increasing the amount of money that you feel comfortable keeping on the site according to how much you trust them. This way you will eventually creep your bets back up to the stakes they used to be at while minimizing the risk at the same time.
Mysterious UnkownHonestly, this might be a positive for some people. However, it is a little bit too dangerous to wander into unknown corners of the internet while waving your wallet in the air on a regular basis. There is no way to know what a new casino will be like, and for some people the realm of the unknown is too scary of a realm to wander into.
There is some merit to this fear, since new casinos have nothing to lose. They have not proven whether they will be using ethical business practices yet. They are also willing to go out on a limb and try new things with the intent of making a splash in the industry. Such risk-taking is usually associated with a “go-big or go-home” mentality. The problem is, when the “go-home” part happens, it usually involves people having their money stolen by the site.
How to Minimize the Possibility of Getting Scammed
We have already covered the fact that new online casinos are tough to trust, so what can we do about it? Well, the only thing we can really do is protect ourselves the best we can and hope for the best.
We have compiled a list of tips to help minimize the chances of having your money stolen by one of these new casino sites. These tips will not make you 10 feet tall and bulletproof, but they will certainly make a difference in the long run on the cold streets of the internet gambling world.
New Casino Sites November 2019
- Avoid welcome bonuses that seem outlandish.
- Check Casino Blacklists.
- Find Out Who Owns Them.
- Find Out Who Licenses and Regulates them
- Check The Forums
Normal welcome bonuses are usually between 50%-125% and reward no more than $1000-$2000 in bonus dollars. For an example on why high bonuses are bad, let’s assume there is a casino that offers extremely high bonuses that have never been seen before. After a few months, they cannot afford to process the withdrawals of players because of throwing all this extra money into their accounts, and the site goes out of business after the news spreads of withdrawals not processing in a timely fashion. Once a casino’s traffic dies down, that’s when shady things might start happening. This scenario is not uncommon in the gaming world.
Just because a casino is somewhat new doesn’t mean that they haven’t broken the law yet. Be sure to check the top online casino blacklists available on the internet and make sure that you are not signing up for a scam.
The top casino blacklists in our opinion are provided by both GamblingSites.com and CasinoListings.com. These blacklists are updated regularly to include as many new casinos as they can so that they can keep potential customers for these sites out of harm’s way.
Another common occurrence in the online gambling world is when an online casino gets shut down for illegal activity, and then the criminal owners simply start a new online casino. Sometimes they use shell companies to hide who really owns them, but most of the time they are not that smart.
You should be able to easily figure out the history of the owners of a site before you join it. This can be done with a simple google search on the names of both the owner’s name and the company name. If you see anything even remotely questionable about these people, we recommend just moving on to a different new casino.
This is not quite as important as finding out who owns the new online casino, but it can still lead to finding dirt on them. The names of the companies should be easy to find at the bottom of the online casino’s website.
Once we know the names of the companies that are licensing and regulating them, we can do a google search and see if they have a shady past. Any questionable actions by these gaming commissions and licensing companies should set off alarm bells and we should just forget about the online casino that is regulated by them.
When researching a new online casino, a great alternative to searching on google is to search on any of the numerous gambling forums on the internet. An example of one of our favorite gambling forums to do background research on can be found here.
These forums are places where gamblers can share stories with each other and report on whether casinos are treating them fairly or not. The forums are also a place where players can compare withdrawal times with each other in order see how long each method is usually taking to complete. If you can see that the online casino you have been considering has had multiple negative customer reports or has withdrawal times of longer than 2 weeks, steer clear immediately!
This method is more effective than checking online reviews because most of these reviews are paid to paint the site in a positive light. The forums do not have this issue as people who are paid shills for certain sites are banned immediately, leaving only casino customers to talk amongst themselves.
Conclusion
If you are looking for a wild new adventure, joining a new online casino will do the trick. This is a great way to enjoy modern games, unorthodox promotions and avant-garde graphics. If you are looking for a hopping new casino to join, check out our recommended list at the top of the page.
