Our verdict

Stardust earns a high safety rating and pays out reliably, with Interac in about 14 hours on average, running on the FanDuel and Pala platform under Boyd Gaming. The honest limitation is size: at around 800 games it has the smallest library on this list, with no real exclusives. It rebranded from CanPlay, so its Ontario track record is short.

Welcome offer & promotions

Ontario bans public bonus advertising, so these terms come from the global brand / T&C, not the Ontario site.

Sourced from
Global / US (NJ, PA)

These figures are the US/global Stardust offer. The Ontario site (ex-CanPlay, Pala Interactive Canada) does not publicly advertise any welcome bonus, and the logged-out promotions page shows nothing. Treat the Ontario welcome as unconfirmed in practice.

Reviews cite ~20× on no-deposit join-bonus winnings and a ~30–35× range on welcome credits. Exact Ontario terms are not published.

No-deposit offer

$25 no-deposit "join bonus" for signing up (US/global Stardust), also cited as 25 free spins on Starburst. Not advertised on the Ontario site. Ontario no-deposit offer unconfirmed.

Ongoing
  • US/global Stardust: first-day loss refund up to $200 in non-withdrawable site credit, 7-day use window, no wagering
  • Refer-a-Friend: $100 credit for referrer + $100 for friend (US)
  • Reload bonuses, free-spin bundles, slot leaderboard races, live-casino cashback (cited generically)
Loyalty / VIP

Boyd Rewards / B Connected loyalty program (US properties): five tiers — Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Onyx, Titanium. Earn ~1 point per $1 wagered on slots, 1 per $2 on video poker (1,000 points = $1). Ontario-specific loyalty integration not confirmed on the official ON site.
