A separate homepage disclaimer for Luxembourg names a second company, Firmero Limited, for payments only. Checked Sep 12, 2026BitStarz terms and conditions ↗BitStarz homepage ↗	Documented The terms introduction states that Rain Group Ltd owns the service. It gives Anjouan company number 16077 and an address in Hamchako, Mutsamudu, Anjouan. The footer names Rainbet as a brand of Rain Group Ltd.

02Licence and domain coverage	Documented Clause 1.2 of the terms cites licence OGL/2024/165/0185 for Gareton B.V. The clause names the regulator as the Curaçao Gaming Authority. A Luxembourg-facing homepage disclaimer cites the same licence number under a different name, the Curaçao Gaming Control Board. RTP Ledger found no regulator certificate page for licence OGL/2024/165/0185. The Curaçao Gaming Control Board's bulk licence registry PDF is dated 2026-09-10. The registry PDF lists licence OGL/2024/165/0185 for Gareton B.V., company number 160656, with the status Indefinite.

07Withdrawal terms	Partial evidence The Payments page gives the same fee, speed and limits for twelve crypto assets. Clause 8.7.1 targets payout within 1 hour, but clause 8.7.8 also cites a 10-minute average. BitStarz and its payment processor charge no withdrawal fee under clause 8.7.10.

08Bonus terms	Partial evidence The Welcome Package spans the first four deposits and was live today. Page metadata names the package 5 BTC plus 200 free spins. The numbered bonus terms instead describe 180 free spins paid over 8 days. RTP Ledger did not resolve the difference between the two spin counts. The terms set a 40 times wagering requirement and a 7 day expiry. Coverage gaps: bonus eligibility and expiry.

The verification trigger stage in practice stays unconfirmed. Coverage gaps: observed KYC trigger and stage. Checked Sep 12, 2026BitStarz terms and conditions ↗	Partial evidence The KYC help article states that crypto transactions need no KYC to play or withdraw. Interac transactions need KYC Level 2. Terms clause 20.1 lets Rainbet ask for KYC documents at any time. The listed documents are a photo ID, a selfie with the ID and a bank statement or utility bill. Clause 20.1 restricts withdrawals if verification is not complete within 72 hours. It also caps deposits at EUR 500 and blocks withdrawals while documents are under review. The help article and the terms describe different verification journeys. RTP Ledger has not run a test account on rainbet.com.

10Responsible-gambling controls	Documented BitStarz publishes a Wager Limit and a Loss Limit, both set daily, weekly or monthly. A Deposit Limit tool also exists for fiat currencies. The page states that crypto deposit limits cannot be enforced. A Cooling-Off period runs from 1 day to 6 months, with a 24-hour cancellation delay. A Self-Exclusion period runs from 1 day to several years and locks the account at once. The Play Safe page also offers self-exclusion by contacting support directly. The page links GamCare and GordonHouse directly. A third link, labeled Gam-Anon, points to a Gamblers Anonymous domain rather than the Gam-Anon domain. Checked Sep 12, 2026BitStarz Play Safe page ↗	Documented The loss limits article offers loss limits over daily, weekly or monthly periods. The system calculates them on a rolling look-back over net losses. The deposit limits article states that Rainbet does not currently offer deposit limits.

Terms clauses 6.9 and 6.11 describe a 24-hour cooldown, accepted by email, before the player chooses an exclusion period. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed.

How the casino comparison works

On 2026-10-24, Bitstarz has 12 areas with source support. Rainbet has 15. These totals measure current RTP Ledger research coverage. They do not measure casino safety or service quality.

A source link supports only the scope stated in its cell. Published rules are not an RTP Ledger account test. An area without a dated source remains unresearched.

Current cashout test status, taken from each review:

Bitstarz: partial evidence; 0 dated sources; no dated check.
Rainbet: partial evidence; 0 dated sources; no dated check.

The comparison does not infer a completed account test from operator terms or from another review area.
