Chipstars Casino

Chipstars: our complete review

Since its creation in 2020, ChipStars has managed to hold its own against very tough competition! Such longevity isn't common... So what accounts for this success? To understand, we offer you a complete review. From the game library to bookmaking via ancillary content and everything else — we tell you everything you need to know, without concessions.

A casino that's both understated and comprehensive

Let's say it right away — ChipStars doesn't shine through its design... The site is clean and rather well-built, but it's also and above all extremely understated. In truth, this isn't to our displeasure! Browsing different pages is done very quietly, and the site's black background has a very restful feel.

Regarding content, it seems fairly comprehensive, with a complete gaming selection, bookmaking, numerous promotions, and cashback and rakeback systems that seem a priori rather interesting.

In short, we'll have many things to examine — so let's not waste time!

We test the casino lobby

To make our lives easier, the site very cleanly separates bookmaking and casino. To access the full gaming content, simply click the "Casino" button at the top of the page. You then land on a lobby that's rather well-built, despite a fairly reduced navigation bar. In reality, to access different categories, you need to scroll through the page — which is rather unusual. But once this initial surprise passes, you notice that the game library is very decent.

Slot machines at the centre of operations

Unsurprisingly, the team has decided to place slots at the centre of its catalogue: most offered categories concern this type of game.

Difficult to tell you exactly how many slots are available here, but one thing is certain: you'll be spoilt for choice! From classic fruit slots to advanced gameplays with original multipliers — you'll want for nothing!

If you already know a few good machines, you'll easily find them by typing their name in the search bar, or by sorting by provider (Play'n GO, Relax Gaming...).

Otherwise, you can trust the site's various pre-selections: new releases, megaways, jackpots, trending, book of... It's rare for sites to organise their catalogue so well.

And you take no risk letting yourself be guided by the site: the majority of slots are freely accessible. Simply hover your mouse over a thumbnail for a demo mode to be offered.

Table games: the disappointment?

Small disappointment however regarding table games. Clicking on this category, you land on a rather sparse page:

Only around a dozen titles are offered! Our disappointment was therefore fairly great — before we realised this was in reality only a "best-of". Indeed, by doing a manual search, you notice that many other titles are accessible.

Blackjack, poker, roulette, baccarat... Different versions of all table game essentials exist — from the simplest and most accessible to the most elaborate.

Mini-games: identical operation

Same goes for crash and fast games! Heading to the corresponding category, you land on only about a dozen titles:

Most classics are accessible, but for the most passionate, this is extremely limited!

Fortunately, by doing a manual search, you once again notice that the site offers here only a sort of best-of of mini-games! Limbo, plinko, mines... There are in reality numerous variations of the greatest classics. And it's also possible to find more original offerings — on the condition however of already knowing them. This is a little unfortunate, as uninitiated people risk missing out on quite a lot of content.

Numerous hidden treasures

Highlighting only the most quality titles has its advantages and disadvantages... In practice, much content one might consider important simply doesn't appear in lists:

This is the case notably for scratch cards, but also lotteries (bingo, keno, lotto...). If you decide to register here, don't hesitate to do manual searches to avoid missing any opportunity to enjoy yourself.

Live casino: a page up to the mark?

If you prefer playing in live conditions — good news: the site offers a live casino of very good quality, and everything is organised as it should be!

As you can see, the site has taken the time to separate different types of content: roulette, blackjack, baccarat, and others. Simply click on one of these categories to access hundreds of tables each time! The list is truly impressive...

But it generally remains very quality-focused, as the site is a partner of reputable providers like Evolution, Ezugi, Lucky Streak, and Winfinity. Most of the time, streams are smooth, settings pleasant, and dealers both professional and welcoming.

Only small problem — game shows are rare... At least in appearance! Because once again by doing a manual search, you notice that not all content is directly listed!

Sports betting: a decent page

Let's now move to ChipStars' second major argument: the site also serves as a bookmaker.

That said, don't be misled. The site isn't specialised in the field. It will simply allow you to place bets in most disciplines quickly.

Football, basketball, tennis, but also futsal, bowling, and golf... The catalogue is rather impressive! Including on the eSports side, with bets accessible on Dota, Counter-Strike, Valorant, Overwatch, and Rocket League competitions. Almost nothing is missing — except unfortunately horse racing.

The page also has a section specially reserved for live competitions. At any hour of the day, it's possible to bet on hundreds of live fixtures. Unfortunately, the site doesn't allow watching matches directly — which limits the interest of such a section a little.

In any case, placing a bet is both simple and intuitive. Like on all sites of this type, one click on an odd is enough to open a ticket allowing instant singles or multiples. By clicking on a fixture, bettors are entitled to a list of more precise bets for more tactical wagers.

Promos and loyalty: a generous site?

Let's now come to the second most important point for choosing a good online casino: promos and loyalty systems... As you'll see, the content is original! A genuine emotional rollercoaster peeling back this truly unique catalogue...

Gaming welcome gift: an atypical concept

ChipStars offers a welcome formula quite different from what you usually see! No free spins, no amount instantly credited with a fixed wagering requirement... You receive a real money system to unlock progressively.

The operation may seem a little confusing at first... In reality, the bonus is spread over the first four payments, with percentages that increase at each step — but also depending on the payment made. Players can thus obtain up to 200% on the first, 210% on the second, 220% on the third, then up to 270% on the fourth. Announced maximum amounts can become enormous, with a theoretical total ceiling exceeding €36,000 cumulated.

But beware: unlike a classic system, money isn't directly usable. You first need to wager your own real money to progressively unlock funds. ChipStars moreover explains the calculation transparently: each bet allows releasing a small portion of the amount. For example, €500 wagered unlocks €2.50. Suffice to say you need to play an enormous amount to recover all the promised amounts.

The system nonetheless has a few interesting advantages. The offer never expires, there are no particular game restrictions, and withdrawals remain possible even after activation.

The idea is original, but it will require an enormous volume of play before becoming genuinely profitable.

An XXL sports gift — and always particular

As with gaming, ChipStars offers a fairly atypical sportsbook gift. On paper, figures are impressive: up to 270% spread over the first four payments, with a theoretical ceiling once again exceeding €36,000. Enough to immediately attract big bettors' attention.

But behind these enormous percentages hides a system quite different from classic offers. Here, it's not a freebet credited immediately. Once again you access a locked real money reserve that unlocks progressively as bets are placed.

Once again, each payment activates an independent wallet, and bets placed on it then progressively release funds. This time, conditions are nonetheless more comprehensible: you need to wager 10 times the amount to unlock it fully.

ChipStars also imposes several constraints on counted bets. Each ticket must contain a minimum of three selections, with a minimum total odd of 1.8 and an odd of at least 1.05 per individual bet. In other words, it's impossible to simply chain ultra-safe bets to quickly unlock your gift.

The site nonetheless strongly highlights the flexibility of its system. Deposits are never blocked, withdrawals remain possible at any time, and the offer doesn't expire.

An ambitious crypto gift — but sometimes difficult to follow

The team also offers a gift specially reserved for cryptocurrencies of up to 100% and 300 free spins — and even VIP qualification for very large deposits.

The system rests on several tiers that unlock depending on the deposited amount. Small purchases receive more modest percentages, while big players can theoretically obtain 100% and several hundred free spins.

This is enticing — even if honestly the operation lacks clarity.

Already, conditions change depending on several elements: the amount, the titles chosen for free spins, or the player's status.

Fund unlocking adds a little more confusion. We're once again told that the bonus is progressively converted into real money as the player wagers. Concretely, each euro wagered unlocks 1%. In practice, this means you need to play an enormous amount to recover all the promised amounts.

Free spins also have their own conditions. Winnings obtained via free spins are subject to a x50 wagering requirement before becoming genuinely withdrawable. Difficult to swallow...

Another slightly strange detail: certain steps actually require contacting customer support to receive the associated free spins. This isn't necessarily dramatic, but it reinforces the slightly convoluted side of the system.

"Hot Codes" very generous... but with sometimes wild conditions

ChipStars also offers an entire series of temporary promotions called "Hot Codes". The concept is simple: the site regularly broadcasts promotional codes allowing obtaining free spins, bonuses, or sometimes even additional cash.

On paper, certain offers are particularly aggressive. You'll find for example promotions with up to 250 free spins, 100% or even 200% boosts, or instant gifts accompanied by free spins on popular machines. The site plays enormously on the event-based and time-limited aspect, with a constantly changing catalogue.

But beware: wagering conditions vary enormously from one Hot Code to another. And this is probably one of the most important points to keep in mind before activating a promotion here.

Certain offers display relatively reasonable requirements — around x10 or x20... Others, on the other hand, climb to much more demanding levels — sometimes up to x100. Yes, x100. In other words, a €100 bonus can require up to €10,000 in bets before being genuinely withdrawable.

The problem is that these differences don't always immediately jump out at you. Visuals highlight amounts, free spins, or percentages — while constraints are found in the detailed conditions.

Better therefore to absolutely take the time to read each promotion individually before activating it!

A weekly cashback extremely rare on the market

Among all offered promotions, the reimbursement system is particularly interesting.

Each week, players automatically recover 10% of their net casino losses. So far, nothing exceptional... Except that here, the amount is paid directly in real money — with no additional wagering conditions.

At most online casinos, reimbursements are generally subject to wagering requirements that are sometimes very high. Here, ChipStars instead announces a directly withdrawable reimbursement. If you lose €1,000 over the week, you'll recover €100 on Monday — with no wagering requirement.

Another important point: this promotion isn't reserved for VIPs. Everyone can take advantage. The system works automatically each week, without any particular registration or promo code to activate.

An interesting rakeback system

The platform also offers a permanent rakeback system. Each bet made automatically generates a small reward — whether the bet is winning or losing.

The calculation used for rakeback is a little technical. This doesn't correspond directly to 5% of total bets, but to 5% of the house edge generated by each bet.

This rakeback operates continuously, without any particular mission or objective to fulfil. The more you play, the more rewards you accumulate... And the minimum amount to claim rakeback is set at only €1.

For occasional visitors, winnings will be fairly limited. On the other hand, for large gaming volumes, this type of reward can be worth it.

Numerous partner tournaments

If you enjoy competition, know that the site constantly highlights very large events organised with partner publishers like Pragmatic Play, Playson, Gamzix, Spinomenal, and Fugaso.

You'll find for example the famous Pragmatic Play Drops & Wins with several tens of millions of euros distributed over the year, Spinomenal's Spinoleague, or enormous seasonal competitions with prize pools that can exceed 10 million euros cumulated.

Amounts at stake are gigantic — thanks to the pooling of players from hundreds of different casinos. Certain tournaments display rewards barely imaginable in classic private competitions... But competition also explodes. On this type of global event, you sometimes face tens or even hundreds of thousands of participants. Chances of finishing at the top of the rankings are therefore extremely low.

An appealing but vague VIP programme

As befits, ChipStars has a loyalty programme intended for the most active members.

Announced benefits are enticing: reimbursements that can climb up to 25%, exclusive gifts, higher withdrawal limits, accelerated payments, invitations to private events, and dedicated support via Telegram and WhatsApp.

The site also promises "lifetime" membership — meaning a member will normally never lose their status once integrated into the programme.

Unfortunately, ChipStars lacks transparency on the concrete operation of its club.

Impossible to know precisely how much you need to wager to become a member, what exact benefits big players unlock, or how rewards evolve over time.

Payments and withdrawals: a reliable system?

Let's now see whether the site allows paying easily, and whether withdrawing winnings can be done without issue!

Purchases: nothing to report!

To fund your account, simply click the "Deposit" button at the top right of the homepage. The cashier opens automatically:

As you can see, you first need to enter the desired amount. After that, you need to choose between depositing money for casino, or depositing money for sports betting. Rather unusual operation... But this is explained by the fact that bonus conditions being fairly precise here, the site needs to properly separate the two categories for calculations to proceed without issue. Moreover, the site takes care to ask which gift we want — always practical and reassuring.

Regarding available methods — don't be misled by the screenshot! By clicking "Deposit now", a new window opens, and you then understand that the site accepts far more methods than expected. Besides card purchases, bank transfer, Apple Pay, Google Pay, MiFinity, and crypto — the site also supports alternative methods like Skrill, Neteller, and Paysafecard.

The minimum is €10 — very decent — and the maximum is €100,000... Practically unlimited.

Withdrawals: a decent system

To withdraw winnings, you obviously first need to click the "Withdraw" button — also at the top right of the homepage.

The site accepts withdrawals by bank transfer, via MiFinity, and in crypto. It's possible to withdraw between €50 and €5,000 — slightly high for occasional players.

Processing speed is very decent. Allow only 24 hours.

We test the support!

Don't panic... ChipStars is a serious licensed site where you'll be safe! But you never know... A bug or a question can always arise. Better therefore to always choose a site with good quality customer support.

To begin, in case of a problem, the site makes a FAQ available. This is rather discreet! To open it, you need to click a small button at the very bottom of the page... Yet it's rather effective! Both comprehensive — it allows obtaining answers on the subjects most commonly raised by customers.

For any other question, all members have access to live support. Simply click the button in the navigation bar.

As is our habit, we asked a series of questions about bitcoin payments. We generally ask the same questions to compare all services as objectively as possible.

Everything went very well here. Responses reached us quickly and were always both very clear and comprehensive. Even on the most technical subjects, the agent was always capable of providing good quality responses — which isn't as common as one might think.

Rather easy registration

Does the positioning tempt you and do you want to try the experience yourself? Simply register!

To do so, click our secure link. The site may display in English... No panic in that case. Simply scroll through the left bar and click the "English" button to change language.

Once done, click the "Sign Up" button at the top right of the screen:

As you can see, registration is done in two parts. To begin, choose your username — in other words your nickname — for future logins. The site will also need your first name, last name, country, and the currency you want to use. This is also the moment to choose your preferred welcome gift.

Click "Next" to continue.

Now enter your phone number, email address, and choose a password for future logins. Finally, enter your date of birth, and don't forget to confirm your age and accept the terms of use before confirming! Note that you can ask to receive advertising by ticking the following box.

You should have received a confirmation email. Click the provided link to enjoy the site without issue.

A successful mobile version

If you travel often, or more simply to be able to play in your bed or on your sofa, ChipStars won't disappoint you!

The site indeed has a rather impeccable mobile version. To begin, you can access all content simply by clicking our link from any Android or Apple device. Smartphone or tablet — the platform adapts to all types of touchscreens to always provide very readable and easy-to-use content. No slowdowns or bugs to report during our test!

And to go even further, the site even offers a casino application! To install it, follow the instructions displayed by clicking the button at the bottom of the left navigation bar.

Final verdict: a casino not quite like the others

After testing hundreds of casinos for you, we can say it: ChipStars stands out on many points! Its way of classifying games, its bookmaking, its welcome gifts, its promos... Here, nothing ever quite goes as expected!

Most of the time, the surprises are good: condition-free cashback, generous gifts, a game library that's both well-sorted and comprehensive...

But every medal has its flipside! Most of the time, understanding how the site works requires both time and effort. You often need to use manual search to find a specific game, different bonus conditions are rarely clear, and the loyalty system is broadly opaque.

In short, this site is of very good quality. But it addresses above all those who are already well-accustomed to playing on the web... Especially since to be profitable, most gifts require a substantial investment!
