Wagering Requirements

The rollover for the PokerStars welcome offer works a bit differently from other UK offers. To withdraw any bonus, you must earn redemption points—2 points per £1 for free spins winnings, and 5 points per £1 for free cash. You are given 7 days for that.

The amount of real money you need to wager to earn redemption points depends on the type of game and its RTP. For example, wagering $7 (about £5.25) on a slot with an RTP of 94.5% earns you 1 redemption point. To see full details, check the T&Cs.

Demo Game Availability

You cannot play the demos at PokerStars.

Software Providers

You may view which studios are available on the site. Simply choose the category called Game Providers. PokerStars features titles from Pragmatic, Play’n GO, Blueprint, Evolution, Playtech, Red Tiger, iSoftBet, IGT, and 10+ other providers. You can also take a look at PokerStars originals.

Casino Games

PokerStars catalogue categories are slots, table games, live dealer tables, and instant win.

Table Games

There aren’t many titles of this kind on the platform. Most of them are by Stars Studio. However, all of the essentials are included.

Roulette

The collection of 5 titles features both American and European Roulette, with the latter offering better odds due to its single zero. You can also try high roller tables for bigger bets or join multiplayer games to play with others at the same table.

Blackjack

The platform promotes 5+ variants. For example, the Classic version with no hole card is offered. You can also try Premium Blackjack, which has a slightly higher RTP of 99.67%. The lineup also includes Multiplier and High Roller tables—for those who enjoy the social aspect and for risk-takers, respectively.

Poker

It’s represented by video poker — a mix of slots and table games. Consider Joker Poker, Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Aces & Eights, and more options (10+ in total).

Top options:

1. Blackjack

2. Roulette

3. Jacks or Better

All possibilities are from Stars Studio.

Slots

PokerStars slots are conveniently categorised, and you can explore trending titles in the relevant section. Also, new games, jackpots, and Megaways are given separately. Titles feature helpful descriptions which cover bonus features, rules, and maximum potential payouts.

You may find an option with a specific feature. Some are Mega Multiplier, Cascading Reels, Expanding and Sticky Wilds, and Cluster Pays. The accessible themes are Land of Egypt, Asia, Hens, Music, Animals, and Hollywood.

Top slots:

1. Big Bass Splash – Pragmatic Play

2. Book of Dead – Play’n GO

3. Fishin’ Frenzy – Blueprint 

Live Dealer Games

Bet limits are shown to players. You can also check the number of occupied seats. As for the actual selection, consider blackjack, roulette, baccarat, Sic Bo, poker, and game shows.

Top games:

1. Blackjack – 35+ tables 

2. Roulette – 40+ tables

3. Baccarat – 10+ tables 

Instant Win Games

The overall collection is more than 25 titles. Consider scratchcards (Ted Big Money Scratchcard, Fishin’ Frenzy Scratchcard, etc.), Mines, Dice, or Flyx crash game.

Casino App

The brand presents mobile apps for Android and iOS devices. You can find a necessary version in a relevant store. The applications feature intuitive navigation. However, the iOS version is quite heavy (304 MB).

You can use a mobile version as well.

Payment Methods

PokerStars stands out among competitors when it comes to the selection of payment methods. You can deposit using 11 options, including cards, Pay By Bank, Skrill, Neteller, and Neosurf.

Note: There are no fees on the casino’s side.

Use the same withdrawal methods (except for PokerStarsTopUp, Neosurf, and Maestro).

Note: The casino doesn’t charge any fees.

The withdrawal limit varies depending on the payment method. You'll see the exact limits before cashing out. For Visa, it's $10 to $6,500 (approx. £7,5 to £4,875).

Service and Customer Support

To reach a live chat agent, you must first go through a chatbot. It can be helpful, but it’s not very smart. Waiting for a real agent takes 5–10 minutes, and they might redirect you to another department, adding another 5–10 minutes.

Even after connecting, you often wait another 5–10 minutes for each reply. The whole process takes too long. For example, we spent nearly an hour just trying to clarify payment limits, and the response we got wasn’t very detailed.

Licence and Reliability

PokerStars is supervised by the UKGC (account number 39108). That means your personal and financial details are protected under legal standards, the RNG is fair, and you are provided responsible gambling tools.

Editorial Opinion

The site features around 20 slot providers—not a huge list, but enough for casual play. Navigation is basic, yet clear, and game descriptions add useful detail. One of the unique aspects is the bonus system, which runs on redemption points. While it’s different from standard wagering, it holds up well in terms of value.

The RNG tables section is limited but includes a multiplayer format. It lets you play software-based games alongside real players. The live casino offering is modest but fairly complete.

A real drawback is the live chat: it’s available 24/7, but response times are slow, and answers often lack depth.

Overall, the website takes a few interesting turns but doesn’t dominate in any significant area.
