BitStarz has operated since 2014 under Curaçao Gaming Authority licence OGL/2024/165/0185, which makes it one of the longest-running casinos we review. Its welcome offer is a conventional casino package: bonus funds spread across the first deposits, plus free spins. That is a different animal from the rakeback model at Stake or Gamdom — you receive value up front, and in exchange it comes with wagering attached.

Our data does not record the match percentages, the number of deposits covered, the maximum bonus or the number of free spins, and we will not guess them; BitStarz's own promotions page has the current figures. What we have confirmed is the wagering: 40x on bonus and free-spin winnings. BitStarz also takes conventional currency alongside crypto, so this is one of the few welcome packages on our list you can claim without buying coin first.

How to claim it, step by step

  1. Confirm BitStarz accepts your country

    Region restrictions apply. Check that BitStarz serves your country before registering. You must be 18 or over, or older if your local law requires it.

  2. Register and read the current package

    Open an account directly with BitStarz and read the welcome page as it stands that day: how many deposits the package covers, the match on each, the cap and the number of free spins. Our data records only that it is spread across the first deposits, plus free spins.

  3. Check for a code or opt-in before depositing

    We have no code on record and our data does not say whether one is needed. Look at the cashier before you send funds; if BitStarz asks you to select or opt into the bonus there, do it before confirming the deposit.

  4. Deposit in crypto or conventional currency

    BitStarz lists BTC, ETH, USDT, LTC, BCH and DOGE and also accepts conventional currency. We list no USDT networks for BitStarz: our 3 October 2026 re-read of its payments page found no network names, so confirm the network in the cashier before sending USDT.

  5. Work through the 40x wagering

    Bonus and free-spin winnings carry 40x wagering. Before you play, check BitStarz's terms for game weighting, any maximum bet while the bonus is active and any cap on winnings. Our data records none of those, and together they decide what the bonus is really worth.

Wagering and terms

The confirmed figure is 40x wagering on bonus and free-spin winnings. As an illustration only: if free spins return 10 units in winnings, those winnings need 400 units of qualifying bets before they can be withdrawn. If some games count for less than 100% towards wagering, the real turnover is higher still, so the weighting table matters as much as the multiple.

Our data does not record game weighting, a maximum bet while wagering, a cap on what bonus winnings can be cashed out, or an expiry period. All four are common in conventional casino terms and all four change what an offer is worth, which is why we score BitStarz's bonus value 4.1 out of 5 rather than judging the headline. Put the current figures into our bonus value calculator before you opt in.

Outside the bonus, cashouts in our checks were consistently quick — often within 10 minutes. That was measured on our own withdrawals. A withdrawal requested while bonus wagering is unfinished is a different matter: check what BitStarz's terms say happens to an active bonus and its winnings if you withdraw early.

Is it worth claiming?

The BitStarz package suits a player who wants a classic slots welcome offer, is comfortable with 40x wagering on winnings and prefers a long-running operator — twelve years is a meaningful track record in this category. It is also the obvious choice on our list if you want to deposit or withdraw in conventional currency rather than crypto, and the very large slot and live-dealer catalogue gives the wagering somewhere to go.

Skip it if you dislike playthrough, or if you want provably fair originals or a sportsbook — BitStarz offers neither. A player who would rather earn value from ongoing play without a wagering hurdle will find a rakeback operator a better fit.

BitStarz Bonus Code: questions answered

Is there a BitStarz bonus code?

We have none on record, and our data does not say whether the welcome package needs one. Check the cashier before your first deposit. Our affiliate link adds no exclusive bonus.

What is the BitStarz wagering requirement?

40x on bonus and free-spin winnings, according to our data. Game weighting, maximum bet and any cash-out cap are not recorded by us; check BitStarz's terms.

Can I claim the BitStarz bonus without crypto?

BitStarz accepts conventional currency alongside crypto, so you are not forced to buy coin first. Whether every payment method qualifies for the bonus is set by BitStarz's terms.

How fast does BitStarz pay out?

In our checks, often within 10 minutes. That is our measured experience, not a guarantee, and unfinished bonus wagering can hold funds back.

Is BitStarz licensed?

It states Curaçao Gaming Authority licence OGL/2024/165/0185 and has operated since 2014. Region restrictions apply.
