BitStarz has been running since 2014; Metaspins launched in 2022. Both are licensed in Curaçao and both ask for 40x wagering on their welcome bonus, but their track records and Trustpilot scores are very different.

Safety: BitStarz clearly ahead

BitStarz scores 9.8/10 at Casino Guru, with more than ten years in business. Metaspins now scores 8.8/10, up from 6.8 in October. It has a numbered licence (OGL/2024/1063/0437) and a named operator, so nothing on record points to a scam, but we list it under “With conditions” because of its weak Trustpilot score and unpublished withdrawal limits.

Bonus: same wagering, different caps

BitStarz matches your first deposit 100% up to €100 with 180 free spins, part of a package of up to €500 over four deposits. Metaspins matches 100% up to 1 BTC. That cap only matters for very large deposits: deposit €100 and you get €100 either way.

Both ask for 40x wagering: a €100 bonus means €4,000 of bets. On a slot with a 96% RTP, that costs about €160 on average, more than the bonus itself.

Payments and withdrawals

BitStarz accepts cards, e-wallets and crypto, from €20. Metaspins works in crypto only, with no minimum deposit. Neither reliably publishes its withdrawal limits: before a large withdrawal, ask support in writing and keep the answer.

Trustpilot

On 5 November 2026, BitStarz had 4.3/5 from 5,445 reviews and Metaspins 2.4/5 from 140 reviews. Trustpilot doesn’t verify every review, but the gap is large.

Our verdict

For most players, BitStarz is the safer choice: higher score, longer track record and much better reviews. Metaspins can suit crypto players who make large deposits and want no minimum, provided they accept its “With conditions” rating. Check that the casino accepts players from your country first.
