Making our members’ wishes come true is what we do, which is why we decided to investigate a casino that is not listed on LCB. A member of ours suggested we should examine game selection, user interface, bonuses, customer service, payment methods, fairness, and overall experience, so we delegated a tester to help us take a closer look.
Curacao-licensed 7Star Casino cooperates with renowned content providers, which is why it accommodates quite a colorful content portfolio. It has a fine selection of bonuses and an attractive Rewards Program, but not quite the best cross-platform optimization.
Following quick registration, and relatively simple KYC, our tester went on to fund the account, and that’s where he encountered the first obstacles. Was the issue resolved quickly or he had to wait to play some games? Stay tuned for our insightful 7Star Casino video report and discover!
Registration and KYC
The tester registered on June 2, 2023, by filling in a simple form. He also verified his e-mail, mobile phone number and updated the info on his profile page.
Following this, he decided to upload documents for identity verification. For this purpose, he sent an image of his passport and the phone bill. The confirmation that the documents were received and the one which stated that his e-mail was verified both arrived a couple of days later, on June 5, 2023.
Deposit
On June 8, 2023, the tester made a deposit of 0.00760904 BTC, which, expressed in a fiat currency was USD 201.03. For this transaction, he was charged a fee of 0.00012388 BTC or USD 3.27.
Players should know that this operator charges several different types of miners’ fees, depending on how efficiently the customer wants to have their transaction processed.
Two days later, the tester finally had his deposit processed. The amount in the cashier was lower than he expected- USD 193.14.
Paying attention to the cashier, players shall notice that the minimum deposit amount is $15, while the maximum is $5,000.
However, the relevant Terms state that the amount is USD 10 or EUR 10, depending on the currency selected. The amount of deposits need to be wagered at least once before a withdrawal is possible.
Gameplay
When the money was finally visible on his account, the tester could explore the lobby. The very first game he played was Venetian Magic, followed by 5 Rabbits Megaways, African Elephant, and Pandora’s Box of Evil. Later on, he ventured into The Last Sundown, Captain Glum Pirate Hunter, and Sparky & Shortz.
Due to some technical issues, he couldn’t launch Dead Man’s Gold and Sheep Gone Wild, so he switched to John Hunter: Big Game Hunter. The next in line was Heavy Metal Princess followed by Wolf Gold and Starburst XXXtreme.
Withdrawal
On the very same day, June 10, 2023, the tester requested to withdraw USD 50 via BVNK. Three days later, on June 13, 2023, the tester noticed that his request was marked as “Complete” in the cashier, He received two e-mails on June 13, 2023, which marked the successful finalization of this transaction. The tester received USD 50 with no fees applied.
Just like with the deposit amount, there’s contradictory info. The Terms say that the minimum amount is USD 20, while the cashier indicated that the minimum sum a player can cash out is USD 15. The maximum cashout sum is USD 5,000.
It’s important to note that withdrawals should be returned to the same method as the one used for making a deposit.
Conclusion
Two days to credit any deposit, let alone the one in Bitcoins is the outrageously long timeframe. A fee on a deposit is also a detail players are definitely not thrilled with. Having said that, the only thing left is to warn players to be careful when visiting this online casino. Alternatively, they should look for some more trustworthy iGaming platforms.
