Starspins sister sites

Before relying on a Starspins ownership claim, you should date its company information, especially when an old review recommends another casino. Keep account correspondence separate from suggestions about alternatives.

Starspins was a UK-facing, slots-only casino operated by Gamesys Operations Limited — now a subsidiary of Bally’s Corporation — under dual UKGC and Gibraltar licensing. The brand closed around 2019 and was subsequently rebranded, first to Megaways Casino and then to Bally Casino.

How We Identify Sister Sites

Every site in this list was verified as a Gamesys Operations Limited brand through multiple independent review and regulatory sources. We confirmed the operator name (Gamesys Operations Limited), its parent company (Bally's Corporation), and the dual UKGC and Gibraltar licensing structure cited consistently across primary-adjacent sources. We excluded brands where operator ownership could not be corroborated across at least two independent sources. Licence numbers are listed as Not publicly confirmed rather than repeated from unverified third-party pages, in line with our policy of only publishing regulatory identifiers traceable to primary-source URLs. Bonus details are withheld where current terms could not be confirmed, reflecting the dynamic nature of promotional offers at regulated UK operators.

Frequently asked questions

Is Starspins still open for UK players?

No. Starspins ceased operations around 2019. It was subsequently rebranded to Megaways Casino and then to Bally Casino, which now serves as the direct successor under the same Gamesys Operations Limited operating licence. Former Starspins players were advised to access their accounts through Bally Casino after the closure.

Who operated Starspins and who runs its sister sites now?

Starspins was operated by Gamesys Operations Limited, a Gibraltar-registered company with a UK presence at Colegrave House, 70 Berners Street, London. Gamesys Operations Limited is now a subsidiary of Bally's Corporation. The same company continues to operate the surviving sister sites including JackpotJoy, Virgin Games, Heart Bingo, Rainbow Riches Casino, Monopoly Casino, Double Bubble Bingo, and Bally Casino.

Were Starspins and its sister sites licensed by the UK Gambling Commission?

Yes. Starspins operated under a dual licensing structure: a UK Gambling Commission remote operating licence and a Gibraltar Regulatory Authority licence (RGL No. 46). Multiple independent sources reference UKGC licence account 38905 in connection with Gamesys Operations Limited, though readers should verify any specific licence number directly on the UKGC public register at gamblingcommission.gov.uk before making any decisions based on it.

Do Starspins sister sites accept PayPal and other UK payment methods?

Gamesys-operated sister sites typically support standard UK payment methods including Visa debit cards, PayPal, and bank transfers, in line with UKGC requirements that prohibit credit card gambling. Specific payment options and processing times vary by brand and can change; always check the cashier section of each site for the current list of supported methods and any applicable minimum or maximum transaction limits before depositing.
