Founded in 2014, BitStarz has a long, rich history of doing things better. So much so that it regularly wins iGaming awards across categories, from Best Casino through Best Support.

But while we appreciate all the greatness - and we definitely do! - as a blackjack review portal, we have one main site in mind. And that of course is our favorite table game. And our opinion?

Well, the casino lobby is a bit scattered albeit, but if you shuffle through you'll soon see there are plenty of titles from which to choose, including an actual original blackjack game found nowhere else, with an astounding high max bet limit! But that's not all.

In total, if you're counting (and we always are) between the online and live variants, there are about 120 blackjack games here. The online ones can even be played for free, without signing up. And blackjack counts towards bonus playthrough, which is a bonus in itself as it's increasingly rare.

Of course, as the casino's very name alludes, Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are more than welcome here, as are common fiats, for true convenience.

"With a slightly non-traditional look and feel, BitStarz is a rather thrilling online gambling site, with amazing bonus offers - including 20 totally free spins when you activate your account - a huge range of games, and an interface tailored to Bitcoin gambling, though totally great with fiats as well."

Stefan Weber, Author at Blackjack.Guide

Bit Starz Casino Game Portfolio

BitStarz is the type of casino that's in a class of its own, on level with the great masters like Stake.

This means in addition to having a powerful relationship with the top software providers to give you the best titles around, across categories, it also invests in creating its own original games for market differentiation.

Almost all of the games in the regular casino lobby can be played for fun for free, though better yet, with real money bets, for potential cash winnings. Live games however are only available for real money play, which is fine, since the limits are low enough; and cash bets power the real thrill of online gaming.

BitStarz Online Blackjack Games

Since we're really looking to zero in on blackjack options in our reviews - as that's what we really love - this is the main section we searched.

Oddly, with all the many links in the casino lobby there is none for this beloved card game. And even when you sort by the next best thing, the 'Table Games' tab, the results are displayed in a mish-mash scattered between roulette, baccarat, and poker style games.

But alas, fret not, blackjack options are certainly there. You'll just need to scroll a bit, or further filter with an A-Z sort, and you'll come up with a nice list.

These of course cover all of the most sought-after variants like American blackjack, multi-hand blackjack, and a single deck variant. Plus, the cream of the crop in the uniqueness category, the original BitStarz blackjack game (which is admittedly fairly standard in its rules and interface, but appreciated for the effort).

Bitstarz Blackjack Live

The better option in our opinion, is the substantial blackjack offering found in the live casino. This is where the vast majority of the nearly 120 versions are found in all their varied glory, and truly engaging real time play.

Of course, you'll see many familiar faces amongst the dealers, as these aren't original games, rather the best blackjack has to offer from the live casino studios - mainly being Evolution Gaming.

For some reason BitStarz doesn't label individual thumbnails in the lobby in such a tempting fashion, but if you click through they are not all simply Blackjack Live as touted, rather many variations on the theme. These include regular Classic Blackjack, Classic Speed Blackjack, Infinite Blackjack, Salon Privé Blackjack, Blackjack Silver, and so forth. Like we said, highly recommended!

BitStarz - Other Casino Games

As a whole, games are categorized rather uniquely and specifically here, with distinct sections for things as niche as 'Trending Games', 'Hold & Win', 'Hot Games - 24h', 'Cold Games - 24h', 'Megaways', and 'Exclusive Games', which is a really nice touch. That means you can literally find any genre you seek, and likely in multi-folds.

Last time we logged in the homepage told us 16 new games had been added, and the count stood at 6,214 games in total, which is immense.

Bitstarz Casino Banking

By the casino's own claim

"BitStarz was the first multi-currency online casino to offer play in major international currencies such as dollars and euros as well as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies."

And it has maintained this standing since, remaining particularly committed to the realm of crypto gambling, with special sections explaining Bitcoin, how to buy it, and the instant exchanger, onsite.

But don't feel compelled if crypto gambling's not your thing. Fiats are also an excellent choice; and equally welcome. In addition to many local currencies, it also offers many convenient methods for banking, spanning the main credit cards as well as e-wallet services.

For full transparency, with each transaction you'll see the possible limits, processing fee (if there is one), and expected processing time.

Available Payment Methods and Limits*

* Limits are listed in USD unless otherwise stated. Available payment methods and exact amounts may differ per location and currency. Check your casino wallet after registering for certainty.

BitStarz Casino Withdrawals

BitStarz really shines when it comes to cashing out, making it quick and simple. The cashier interface is clearly marked with a cashout option, and you'll simply follow the prompts there.

The casino is committed to quickly releasing your funds, and has surprisingly few limits - one of the big benefits of BitStarz, though the minimum cashout can admittedly be a bit on the high end.

Just note you'll need to cash out with the same method you used for depositing, and the same currency. So you won't be able to deposit in crypto and withdraw in US dollars. The casino isn't an exchange platform or bank after all.

Also note that you'll need to wager your deposit at least one time before you're able to cash out that sum.

And while there's no maximum limit on deposits with crypto, that amount is generally capped per transaction to $20,000 when withdrawing, which is still impressively high. You can then make more than one successive withdrawal to take out more.

Bit Starz Withdrawal Time

BitStarz's processing times are so quick that the average cashout according to the site's FAQ section is no longer than 10 minutes. And when we last checked, the live stat was actually showing a precise 6m 52s timeframe. Of course, this doesn't always happen, and will depend heavily on the method you're using, but it's a fantastic standard and sincere indicator.

To keep things speedy, it's best to verify your account soon after joining. While BitStarz is less adamant in its account verification demands than some operators - not necessarily requiring verification when banking in crypto - it maintains the right to request that you complete your KYC process; so you might as well get that done.

How to Withdraw Money from BitStarz Casino

Once you're ready to withdraw your blackjack winnings, the cash out steps look like this:

1. Log in to your BitStarz Casino account
2. Open the cashier and select 'Cash Out'
3. Enter the amount you want to withdraw (and the currency)
4. Fill in any further information, if requested, on the form
5. And confirm

If there's an issue, you'll already see it in the cashier. This would be either that your withdrawal request doesn't fit within the maximum or minimum limits, it's locked by an active bonus which you need to playthrough, or you simply don't have enough funds. For any issues (though we didn't have any), you can always contact support.

BitStarz Mobile

If you're mostly in search of mobile blackjack then BitStarz remains an equally good bet.

A browser-based crypto casino, it is fully accessible and functional from any device, desktop, handheld, or mobile. It also looks great in any web browser or using any operating system like Android or iOS.

Needless to say, this means that no app download is required. Just a good internet connection, and maybe not ideal for a subway ride with all the tunnels or on a dessert trek; though possibly still great, as we have no idea who your cellular provider is.

BitStarz Support

When it comes to customer service, BitStarz is one of the best. So much so that it's won multiple awards on this front.  According to the casino itself, this is from concentrated efforts in which all support agents hired are experienced casino players who know both BitStarz specifically and the overall iGaming industry as a whole, inside out.

There is also a very comprehensive 'Help' section onsite where you can learn a lot about Bitcoin and crypto in general, the concept of provability in fair gaming, as well as the casino's safety endeavors, general FAQs, and even register complaints.

BitStarz Bonuses

Such a superstar is this operator that it comes as no surprise that it shoots things out of the park on the bonus front, with both strong and original offers.

BitStarz Reputation

It's not just us at Blackjack.Guide who think BitStarz is universally great. It actually has an astoundingly good reputation online as well. Sure, not everyone gives it a 5-star rating. But we've seen far more positive reviews than negative ones, which is an impressive testament to the casino's standing.

In fact, it may just be the best ranked casino we've seen in terms of player feedback across forums. So now you've got our experience and crowd sourcing to go on in terms of a recommendation.

1. Can I gamble with Bitcoin at BitStarz Casino?

Bit Starz is the master of Bitcoin gambling. It's got this very crypto in its very name, and is very dedicated to promoting the concept - with, for example, its welcome package specifically spelled out in BTC. So yes, you can absolutely bet with Bitcoin here.

Other cryptos that will work equally well include Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Dogecoin, USD Coin, TRON, Cardano, and Tether.

2. Can I bet with my local currency instead?

While Bitcoin gambling is BitStarz's specialty, you can just as easily - and confidently - bank and play in a local currency instead. These include fairly universal fiats like euros and US dollars, as well as NZD, CAD, AUD, NOK, RUB, CNY, PLN, JPY, and BRL.

You can, by the way, have more than one currency active in your account. Simply use the 'Add Currency' button and choose the one that you want, if you'd like.

3. Does BitStarz have any original blackjack games?

In addition to a nice selection of online blackjack games and a stellar live blackjack offering, BitStarz distinguishes itself with an original blackjack game. Developed by the casino's own in-house software team, it's a great opportunity to try your hand at a slightly adapted variation of the game.

While the rules are standard, the super simplistic interface is actually quite refreshing. Ideal for lovers of straight forward blackjack play.

4. Are BitStarz games fair?

All BitStarz games are fair. Many of them, including the BitStarz originals and other crypto games, are what are called provably fair games. This means that the results can be tracked through hashing algorithms, which you can follow. The Bit Starz website even offers you an explanation as to how, since it's understandable that you might not know.

Additionally, the casino's Curacao gaming license testifies to the fairness of all games, and further certifies the use of a random number generator (RNG) for procuring honest results.

5. Does Bitstarz accept US players or will I need a VPN?

Realistically, in all likelihood, you will not need a VPN to access BitStarz. Even from an IP address in the United States you are generally able to visit this crypto casino.

This, by the way, doesn't mean that there aren't restricted countries. Rather that the casino has not made it its business to particularly enforce this.

Also, you may note that things like live blackjack games will not be available in every location - at which point you may opt to turn a VPN on, to gain access.

6. Can I play blackjack at BitStarz without creating an account?

Yes, you can play blackjack for free at BitStarz without creating a casino account. In fact, you can play most of the casino's games for free without registering if you want to get a firsthand impression, with zero commitment. In addition to blackjack, these include roulette and video slot machine games. However, live games can only be played with real money wagers. So you'll need to create an account for that.

7. Does blackjack contribute to Bit Starz bonus playthrough?

Another bit of good news here is that blackjack does count towards bonus wagering requirements. Not a whole lot at just 5%. But it's something. And more than other online casinos we've reviewed, who leave bonus clearance exclusively to the domain of slots.

8. What is the Jackpotz Mania I've seen at BitStarz?

BitStarz is light years above many other casinos in terms of promo creativity. And Jackpotz Mania is just one excellent example.

This is a daily offer that simply requires you to log in. Once you do, you'll get what are called J$. You can then covert these for a chance to win one of the two daily progressive jackpot prizes.

9. Is the BitStarz blog worth reading?

The BitStarz News is a nice resource that's free to read, so why not?

It's extremely extensive and thorough covering a range of topics categorized under 'Bitcoin Casino News', 'Casino Big Wins', 'Casino Tips and Tricks', and 'Game Reviews' - ensuring there's something of interest for everyone.

10. Should I follow BitStarz on social media?

The casino itself promotes three social media accounts it keeps relatively active - on Vimeo, Twitter (aka the X platform), and Telegram.

As BitStarz is quite communicative with players in any event, subscribing to any of these isn't necessary for staying up-to-date, but it can be another avenue for items of interest. Plus, perhaps a way to communicate with the wider BitStarz community through the comments section.

Is BitStarz Safe?

Without a doubt, BitStarz casino is 100% safe. How do we know this? Well, for starters, it is fully licensed and regulated, and is GDPR compliant. Plus it has both RNG and provably fair games.

Your personal information is secured employing industry-standard encryption technology, safeguarding your data as much as your activity trail. And you can add 2FA as an extra layer of security to your account.

BitStarz was tested and reviewed by Stefan Weber

I'm lucky enough to have found both my job and my calling on the internet. As the online marketing manager for a major sportsbook, I began in the online gambling business over a decade ago. The business has been good to me and I love the dynamics of the industry. A blackjack enthusiast myself, I try to provide articles that combine practicalities with the strategic elegance of the game in a way that both rookies and experienced players can appreciate. And when I can, I like to spend my free time on live streaming platforms such as Twitch and Kick.
