Disclosure: CryptoGuardz has no commercial relationship with BitStarz, earns nothing if you play there, and has not contacted the company or given it notice of this check. Every line below is either a statement about a public register or a quotation from a document BitStarz publishes, and each carries the date it was read. Corrections go to the corrections page.
The six checks
Each row is one lookup. The result column says what the document or the register showed, in the register’s own words where it has them; the source is the page that was read, and the date is the day it was read. A row that reads not verified means the page could not be fetched, not that the brand failed anything.

The restricted list names 47 territories and is open-ended; among them are the US, the UK, Australia and Canada. A player in a named territory is outside the terms before any withdrawal question arises.
BitStarz official site
The domain in the record is bitstarz.com. The licence text as displayed reads: Curaçao Gaming Authority (license no OGL/2024/165/0185)
. Read from bitstarz.com on . The register entry checked for this page is the Curacao Gaming Authority register .
Check the register link we give above against the licence text on the site you are looking at, and treat the seal on the casino page as a claim until the register agrees with it. Match the company name in the site footer to the register entry: Gareton B.V. is the name on record, and a footer that carries another company is another operator, whatever the logo says. Never trust a login page reached from an ad, a sponsored result or a message; type the domain yourself and compare the footer before you sign in.
What we could not verify
- The homepage fetch did not render the footer, so the licence claim is taken from the terms page rather than the footer seal.
- The restricted list count of 47 is as read in one pass and may be off by a few entries. The terms do not close the list with exhaustive wording, so open_ended is recorded as true.
- Only Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash are named in the terms; the cashier likely lists more coins but no cashier page was read.
- The certificate shows an issue date and no expiry date; the portal page itself carries no retrieval timestamp.
Legal position
Online casino play in Canada is licensed province by province, and Ontario runs its own open market. A brand without that local licence is not offering a regulated product there, and this page carries no ranking for the market. The country page has the full position.
