You can play Stardust Casino for real money in Ontario and Alberta, and nowhere else in Canada. Its operator, Pala Interactive Canada, Inc., is on the iGaming Ontario directory and on the AGLC list of Alberta registrants. In other provinces the crown sites are the regulated option. We cover the registrations, the owner, games, payments, the app and how offers work.
Pala Interactive is part of Boyd Gaming, an American casino company. Play is 19+ (18+ in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec), and the site checks that you are in Ontario or Alberta before each wager.
Stardust Casino Canada: who holds the registrations
iGaming Ontario lists Stardust Casino under Pala Interactive Canada, Inc. with a casino tag. In Alberta, the same company is registered with the AGLC for StardustCasino.com, and it also holds registrations there as a gaming systems provider and platform. The Alberta private market opened on 13 July 2026, so the Alberta site is newer than the Ontario one.
The practical effect for you: identity and age checks, tested games, provincial advertising rules, and safer play tools such as deposit and time limits. Ontario players can self-exclude from all regulated sites at once through BetGuard. A complaint starts with the operator, and the provincial regulator stands behind the registration. Our Ontario page and Alberta page explain each market.
Is Stardust Casino legit? Two lists to check
Yes, for players in Ontario and Alberta: the brand is on both official lists, which you can check yourself. Ownership by Boyd Gaming, reported by gambling.com, gives the brand an identifiable parent company. Our score puts Stardust in the recommended band, with points lost mainly on bonus clarity and a narrower product than the big sportsbook brands.
Do not confuse it with Stardust bingo. PlayNow, the BCLC site, runs a bingo room called Stardust; that is a separate crown product with no link to this casino.
Stardust in Ontario versus Alberta
The two provincial sites share a brand and an operator, but they are separate products. Each one runs under its own province’s rules, so the game list, the payment options and any promotion can differ. Ages differ too: 19+ in Ontario and 18+ in Alberta. Your account is tied to the province where you registered, and the location check runs before every real money bet, so a trip from Calgary to Toronto does not carry your Alberta balance into play in Ontario.
Complaint routes also follow the province. In Ontario the AGCO registers the operator and iGaming Ontario holds the operating agreement. In Alberta the AGLC registers the operator and the Alberta iGaming Corporation runs the market. If you hold accounts in both provinces over time, keep the records for each one separately.
The Stardust game lobby
Stardust is a casino-only brand: no sportsbook and no poker, according to the directory tag and gambling.com. We could not read the full lobby, and the two provincial sites are separate products, so we name no studios or titles. For any slot, the RTP and volatility are in the game’s info screen.
Stardust Casino offers and promo codes
Searches for a Stardust Casino promo code, sign up bonus, welcome bonus or no deposit bonus are steady. Our offer fields stay empty because we could not confirm a public offer under Ontario’s advertising rules; offers usually appear inside your account. The welcome offer listed by the operator: not stated. Promo code: not stated. Wagering: not stated.
Do not assume that codes from US Stardust promotions work in Canada. Whatever you are offered, check the wagering multiple, the time limit and which games count. Our welcome bonus guide explains how to compare offers.
Paying in and cashing out at Stardust
According to gambling.com, Stardust takes Interac, Visa, Mastercard, PayPal and Trustly online banking in both provinces, with Apple Pay and American Express in Ontario. Our guides to Interac and PayPal explain how those methods work at regulated casinos.
| Item | Per operator |
|---|---|
| Minimum deposit | not stated |
| Withdrawal time | not stated |
| Interac | Yes |
The first withdrawal follows an identity check, so have a photo ID and a recent proof of address ready. Regulated operators normally return funds to the method you deposited with where possible.
Stardust on iOS and Android
Apps for iOS and Android are listed in both Ontario and Alberta, according to gambling.com. Install from the App Store or Google Play only, and allow location services: the app must confirm you are in the province before you can play for real money. An Ontario account does not work while you travel to another province.
Withdrawal limits, safer play and alternatives
Before your first deposit, set a deposit limit in the account settings; regulated operators must offer one. Compare Stardust with other casinos registered in both provinces, such as BetMGM Casino, on payout terms and limit tools rather than on the size of an offer. Our responsible gambling page lists helplines, including the Alberta Addiction Helpline at 1-866-332-2322.
