Lucky Star Casino Review

Lucky Star has been running since 2015 and is operated by Mirage Entertainment. Its welcome offer is unusual: instead of a match bonus, new players get cashback on their losses with very low wagering.

Lucky Star operates under a Curaçao licence. It is not licensed in the UK.

The welcome offer is cashback on your first deposit losses. In our records, the cashback had to be wagered just twice before withdrawal. Current offers are listed on this page.

High rollers are welcome, with offers tailored to bigger stakes.

The library includes games from NetEnt, Microgaming, Playtech, Big Time Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Nolimit City, ELK Studios and Endorphina, with live games from Evolution.

Methods include Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, ecoPayz, Paysafecard, Neosurf, AstroPay, InstaDebit, iDebit and Bitcoin. Withdrawals take up to seven days.

The site is mobile-friendly.

Live chat is open 24/7.

Lucky Star suits players in accepted markets, such as Canada and India, who prefer cashback to wagering-heavy bonuses.

Lucky Star is licensed in Curaçao, not by the UK Gambling Commission. That means it is not authorised to offer gambling to players in Great Britain, and UK players do not get UK protections such as GAMSTOP, strict affordability checks or the UK’s complaint and dispute rules.

If you live in the UK, choose a UKGC-licensed casino instead – see our best UK casinos. If you live elsewhere, check that online casino play is legal where you are before you sign up.

Signing up at Lucky Star is quick, but verification usually happens later than at UK-licensed sites:

1. Click Sign up and enter your email, a password, your name, date of birth and address.

2. Choose your currency – including crypto, where available – and enter a bonus code if the offer requires one.

3. Make your first deposit.

4. Before your first withdrawal, expect to upload ID, proof of address and sometimes proof of payment. Doing this early avoids long delays when you want to cash out.

Example: 20% cashback on $200 of losses gives $40, which needs only $80 of bets at 2x wagering.

Offers change regularly, so always check the current terms on the casino site before you deposit.

Casinos without a UK licence are not part of the UK’s GAMSTOP scheme, so the tools available depend on the operator and its regulator. At Lucky Star, ask support to set deposit limits or to close or self-exclude your account if you need a break. You can also use blocking software on your devices and your bank’s gambling block.

Free, confidential help is available wherever you are – for example Gambling Help Online in Australia (1800 858 858) or the National Gambling Helpline in the UK (0808 8020 133). Read more in our guide to gambling harm.

• Jet10 – strong cashback on deposits.

• Casinia – low-wager cashback.

• Haz – no-wagering weekly cashback.

Our overall score for Lucky Star is 4.7 out of 5. It is based on four areas we check for every casino:

We also look at customer support, mobile play and the fairness of terms. Scores are reviewed when casinos change their offers or services.

Withdrawal times are typical ranges after the casino has approved your request, and can vary with verification and your bank. Prepaid vouchers such as Paysafecard usually cannot be used to withdraw, so you will need another method to cash out. Compare methods in our casino payments guide.

Lucky Star offers one of the fairest welcome deals around – low-wager cashback – plus a big library. Curaçao licensing is the main caveat.
