SlotStars Casino

SlotStars has a licence from the Gambling Commission of Great Britain, which is perhaps the most stringent governing authority in the entire iGaming sector. The licence (Account No. 39326) is issued to SkillOnNet Ltd, the operator of the casino. The licence information is confirmed on the SlotStars website, which is publicly available, stating that it is up to date.

The UKGC has refined its safeguards for player protection, requiring operators to meet the highest standards for security, anti-money laundering, and gaming compliance, as well as fair play and responsible gambling measures. All licence holders must also undergo regular audits and are held to high transparency standards.

The SlotStars Casino website features a Responsible Gaming section, which is easily accessible from the footer of each page on the site. The area contains links to support organisations for assistance in problem gambling, including: GamStop, GambleAware, GamCare, and the National Gambling Helpline (0808 8020 133). Players can also take their own initiative by utilising a variety of player protection mechanisms available, many of which are embedded directly in their user account dashboard.

Usability Facts for Player Safety

SlotStars provides tools, including reality checks and SafeMate, to help players maintain control. Although two-factor authentication is not mentioned, the site has essential protections and clearly visible links to fraud-fighting organisations.

First Glance

SlotStars’ user interface is functional, but lacks personality and is uninspiring. The dark blue style isn’t high-glare, but it doesn’t stand out in comparison to similar licensed casinos operating in the UK. The look, in general, feels somewhat dated and offers little insight into its identity.

Navigation is simple. The top menu provides access to the site’s key sections, including promotions, support, and game categories. The footer has appropriate links to safer gambling info and licensing details.

On the other hand, SlotStars is better organised when it comes to the game catalogue section. The filtering tools and search bar are effortless to use for accessing games, including titles, etc.

I thought the site was pleasing and functional, with easy access to the game section. However, the visual design could use improvement to compete with some of the sister sites across other SkillOnNet-owned properties.

SlotStars online casino states that its UK customers can deposit as little as £10, with instant deposits and no fees. The site has Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Trustly, and Instant Bank Transfer as deposit options.

I made a £25 deposit via Visa to test the speed of the process. The deposit was processed within 30 seconds or less, and I immediately saw the balance updated to reflect the deposit. The deposit page is located in the top right corner of the screen, and I appreciated seeing the minimum deposit for each method stated along with the technique before making a selection.

Deposit Methods at SlotStars in Detail

After completing your SlotStars login, click the Deposit button in the top right corner of the screen. Choose your preferred payment method from the cashier, enter the amount you want to add (minimum £10), and confirm the payment through your bank or e-wallet security check. Once the transaction is approved, the funds are credited to your balance almost instantly.

SlotStars’ deposit process is dependable and easy to use. It is accessible due to the £10 minimum entrance requirement, fee-free transaction processing, and nearly instantaneous fund delivery.

The next part of this Slot Stars review will explore the bonuses.

Bonus Offers

To the casual observer, SlotStars may seem slightly lacking when it comes to the variety of bonuses on offer. At the time of writing, the website currently lacks a no deposit bonus; however, it does focus primarily on its welcome package and daily rotating deals. This limited approach may disappoint players who prefer a broader range of rewards, such as cashback or no wagering deals.

Welcome Bonus

The headline offer at SlotStars is a 100% match bonus up to £50 plus 50 free spins on Book of Dead. A minimum deposit of £ 10 is required to claim this offer, and bonus funds are subject to a 30x wagering requirement on the combined value of the deposit and bonus. The free spins add extra appeal, but winnings from these come with 60x wagering requirements. No SlotStars coupon code is required; the reward is credited automatically after your first qualifying deposit.

Bonuses for Existing Players

Instead of static offers, SlotStars runs Daily Picks, a hub of rotating promotions that can be accessed via the Promotions tab. Each day presents a new option, which might include a deposit bonus, a mission-based reward, or entry into a tournament. The values of these promotions are not particularly high, but the frequent refresh keeps regular players interested. Most offers are triggered automatically without requiring a bonus code.

SlotStars keeps its rewards simple, with a modest welcome package and rotating Daily Picks, but the lack of broader long-term perks leaves room for improvement.

Next, we review the loyalty program.

The VIP Lounge at SlotStars has six levels: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Red Diamond. All players start at the Bronze level. Players rise through these levels based on their collection of points earned on their wagers, with slots earning points at a higher rate than table games.

Levels are recalculated monthly on the first day of each month. The further you climb up the levels, the better the perks you receive. The levels of Diamond and Red Diamond are invitation-only, which involve more stringent affordability checks and document verification requirements. Perks for the Bronze level include a VIP account manager, exclusive promotions, expedited withdrawal requests, and invitations to select events.

After testing the loyalty scheme, I appreciated the simplicity of the points program, but it requires deposits and wagering activity over a prolonged period to obtain any value. For heavy players, it can be a little more worthwhile, but if you play now and then, any benefits can feel stale.

SlotStars is one of the UK’s largest-facing casinos, with a staggering more than 8,000 games. It offers over 7,000 slots, almost 500 table and live dealer games, 220 instant wins, and 49 variants of Slingo, all coming from over 50 top-rated game providers, including industry leaders such as NetEnt, Play’n GO, Eyecon, Evolution, and Pragmatic Play.

SlotStars is best suited for players who seek variety and appreciate having a large selection of slots. There are table games and live dealer games, but these are definitely secondary to the dominant slot offering.

The navigation is aided by a more advanced level of filtering, which allows players to filter by type, provider, theme tags, star rating, minimum bet, and maximum bet. The search bar does its job reliably and is a good way to quickly find either a game or a provider for slot games. However, the large quantity of games means you do notice that deeper subcategory filters are not available.

Another drawback is that, although almost all games offer a demo mode, the RTP information isn’t listed in the online casino’s own interface. Players may have to guess the RTP or check the provider’s website for RTP values.

It was easy to browse the library, but dealing with the inconsistent full-screen toggle and a couple of ‘dead games’, which I couldn’t get to load, was annoying. Most games worked in under ten seconds to launch, though most gameplay went easily with only some minor sound and +/- graphic glitches.

Available Games

Slots

SlotStars has 7,000+ slots, including Megaways, Jackpot, Daily Drops, Gold Blitz, and more than 30 exclusives that can’t be found anywhere else. This gives it one of the largest slot collections in the UK market, offering endless choice for players.

I tried out two slots while at SlotStars. The first was called Vault of Anubis. I managed 10 spins on this game and ended up £0.21 up during my session. I liked the game’s design, particularly the cluster pay and cascading wins. Next, I played The Incredible Balloon Machine, one of the more well-known games, and I was excited to play. Again, I played 10 spins on that game and ended up being £1 down.

Live Casino + Table Games

SlotStars has approximately 470 tables and live games. The most significant types are roulette and blackjack, but there are other options, including poker, baccarat, craps, and several niche varieties and formats.

I played both games tested at SlotStars. I did five spins on Fireball Roulette Live, finishing down £0.20. I particularly liked the bonus number feature, and it was good fun adding multipliers to each spin. I played five hands in European Blackjack Turbo and ended up losing £3 in total. I did like the speed of the game, but sometimes the pace of the match outstripped the sound effects. In fact, you could argue there was a minor glitch when my chip disappeared in one instance.

Slingo

Slingo is not shown in its own lobby at SlotStars, requiring players to search or filter to find the games. With that being said, the Slingo library is solid, featuring almost 50 different Slingo games that range from classics to themed new releases. Many are by Gaming Realms, a well-respected name in the Slingo space.

I played two Slingo titles at SlotStars. I found Slingo Cascade wouldn’t load through a game error, which was frustrating because it remains a search option for players in the lobby. I then switched to Slingo Cash Eruption and played five rounds overall and ended up down £0.60. I thought the design was great, and I liked the three attempts per reel mechanic, which added a bit more tension and made for a nice inclusion in the game.

Instant Win

The Instant Win collection covers crash games, scratch cards, arcade games, video poker, and video bingo. With over 220 games available, this collection features a range of quick-play games, including a healthy mix of light and higher-risk entertainment.

I explored four Instant Win games. Fruity Flurry was a unique scratch-card-type game, with a maximum win of £50,000, but I personally didn’t like not having the option to change the bet size; I ended up losing five plays, down £1.60. I liked the Plinko Plus, as it had customisable settings and a lower entry stake; I finished five plays down £0.04. On Don Bingote, I liked the fast-paced bingo game mechanic and the entry stake of £0.05; however, I found the theme uninspiring. I finished five tickets down £0.10. Lastly, I tried the Stormy Witch, a Halloween-themed crash game with great visuals and nice flexibility, including auto cashout and dual stake options. After five plays, I finished up.

The rich variety of SlotStars games allows the site to appeal to players who prefer a range of formats, including slots, Slingo, and instant wins. Although some games have a low RTP and others have technical issues, the large selection enables most players to find a game worth playing.

Mobile Access and Gameplay

SlotStars can be played on desktop, tablet, and mobile browsers. They have a dedicated mobile app for Android users, but iOS users are currently limited to accessing the browser-based version, which replicates the desktop version.

The SlotStars app resembles the site, boasting a clean layout and proportioned design, and features a quick-access bar that makes navigation easy. The app downloaded in less than five seconds, and setup was instantaneous. I did, however, notice that switching to different sections of the app took one to two seconds. Additionally, once I left the app idle, it took 10–15 seconds to reopen.

The SlotStars application boasts a clean design and a quick-access bar, offering easy access to all its features. The gameplay was generally easy over Wi-Fi and data; however, there may be a slight delay when moving around.

Next, we will turn to the withdrawal process at SlotStars.

Players can choose between a handful of withdrawal methods when making a cashout with SlotStars. They can withdraw using Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Trustly, Instant Bank Transfer, or Wire Transfer. Most methods have a £20 minimum, while Wire Transfer has a £30 minimum.

I tested Visa for a £50 payout. The site stated 1–3 working days, and I received the funds after two. The process was easy once the bonus was cancelled, and no additional fees were applied. One annoyance is that you cannot see your real money balance on the withdrawal screen, which makes it harder to track exactly what’s available.

Withdrawal Methods at SlotStars in Detail

Finding the withdrawal process was slightly more difficult than making the initial deposit. To proceed, open the menu, click on “Cashier,” and then select “Withdrawal.” Once you are in the process of withdrawing funds, you can view your payment method and balance on this screen. Click on how much to cancel, and you’re done.

SlotStars requires Know Your Customer (KYC) checks to be completed before it approves larger payouts. The site uses automatic verification during the sign-up process when registering your account. However, if this is not successful, you will be required to upload your documents manually through the secure portal in your dashboard. Some of the items you may be required to upload are proof of ID, proof of address, and proof of payment method.

Next, we discuss customer support at SlotStars.

SlotStars provides various contact options for customer care; however, there are clear restrictions compared to leading UK operators. The FAQ area is challenging to find, as you must open the chat window, select “Show more categories”, and then access the articles themselves. There are approximately 50 questions, but the answers are processed quickly and often redirect you to another part of the site rather than resolving your query.

Live chat is available from 6am until midnight, and the first agent you connect to is a bot named Marcus, which mostly redirects you to FAQs. There is no direct phone line, but players can request a callback. Email support is available at [email protected]; however, it’s not prominently featured on the site, and responses can take several hours.

I was frustrated after taking almost 30 minutes to connect with a real agent. However, once connected, the responses were quick (within a couple of minutes), polite, and accurate. It was still a frustrating interaction that I wouldn’t have needed to go through if the bot had not been so slow to route my request.

Availability and Response Times

Customer service at SlotStars is adequate, but it falls short of expectations. For UK players who need quicker assistance, the limited live chat hours, absence of direct phone support, and dependence on a chatbot diminish convenience.
