BitStarz Pokies
Over 6,000 pokies open on an AUD account, from Bonus Buy and Hold&Win to Megaways and jackpots. Here is how the lobby is laid out and how to pick a game.
- 6,000+ AUD pokies
- 103 game studios
- Search by studio
- Mobile and Android
BitStarz pokies take AUD: over 6,000 titles from 86 studios, led by Games Global, Pragmatic Play, Playtech and Play'n GO. Use the main Slots tab or search, filter by studio, and check each game's info screen for its published RTP.
What's in the lobby
BitStarz pokies are the biggest part of the lobby. Of roughly 8,900 games, about 6,500 are open on an AUD account, and over 6,000 of those are pokies. The brand has been around since 2014, and the catalogue shows it: classic three-reel fruit games sit next to cluster pays, Megaways and feature-buy titles.
- AUD pokies6,000+
- Bonus Buy gamesabout 3,900
- Hold&Win games853
- Megaways games160
The Bonus Buy and Hold&Win counts come from the whole lobby, so a few of those games may sit outside your AUD view. They still show how the catalogue leans. Bonus Buy lets you pay a set multiple of your bet to jump straight into the bonus round instead of waiting for the trigger. Hold&Win pokies lock cash symbols on the reels and give you a few respins to fill the grid. On Megaways titles the height of every reel shifts from spin to spin, so the ways to win keep changing.
Lobby tabs worth knowing
- Slots: the main pokies list and the best place to browse by feel.
- New, Top, Trending, Exclusive: quick filters for fresh releases, steady favourites and games you will not find everywhere.
- BitStarz Originals: 18 in-house games such as Keno, Plinko, Crash, Limbo, Tower and Darts. They are not pokies, but they load fast and rounds are short.
- Jackpots: progressive and fixed-prize pokies in one place, like the second rail above.
- Table Games, Live Casino, Game Studios: the other tabs, with the studio list at the end.
The search box reads "Find game or game studio". Type a title, or type a studio name and you land on that studio's own page with all its games on one screen. That is the quickest route when you remember who made a pokie but not what it was called.
Slot Wars
BitStarz runs weekly tournaments called Slot Wars for pokies and Table Wars for table games. AUD accounts can take part. The prizes are not paid in A$ and the amounts are not published, so read the tournament page in the lobby for what is on this week. Leaderboard play pairs well with the pokies in the first rail, since you only need a game you enjoy and a bet you can sustain.
First time at BitStarz? The guide to playing in AUD shows how to pick the account currency at sign-up, because that choice decides which pokies you see. The welcome package of a 100% first-deposit bonus plus 180 free spins is described in the offer terms; for now, the point is that the spins land 20 a day over 9 days.
Providers
The lobby lists 103 studios, but not every one is open to every currency. On an AUD account the pokies come from 86 of them, and four studios carry a large share of the library.
- Games GlobalCollect pokies and King Millions
The biggest studio in the lobby. On AUD you get titles such as Queens of Ra Rising Coin Collect, Massive Gold Power Staxx and Bass Cash 1000, plus Bass Cash X UP King Millions in the jackpot rail.
- Pragmatic PlayFast, feature-heavy pokies
Gates of Olympus 2500, Hot to Burn Extreme and John Hunter and the Book of Tut all take AUD. Expect multipliers, tumbles and Megaways titles.
- PlaytechFranchises and jackpots
The Age of the Gods series sits here, Hercules Rules included, along with Big Bad Wolf: Cash Collect & Link, Lunar Link Sky King and Aztec Fruits.
- Play'n GOAdventure-themed classics
Home of Book of Dead, Legacy of Dead, Fire Joker and Reactoonz, all open on AUD, plus newer releases such as Tales of Asgard: Lokis Fortune.
Beyond those four, AUD pokies also come from Yggdrasil, Relax Gaming, Hacksaw Gaming, Playson, ELK Studios, Iron Dog Studio, Quickspin, Nolimit City, Booming Games, CT Interactive, Kalamba, BGaming, Evoplay and ReelPlay. Each has its own page behind the Game Studios tab, and you can read more about them on their own sites, for example Pragmatic Play and Play'n GO.
Studios that do not take AUD
NetEnt (the maker of Starburst), Red Tiger, Evolution, Endorphina, Amusnet, Amatic, Habanero, Thunderkick, Push Gaming, Big Time Gaming and 3 Oaks are not playable on an AUD wallet. If you search for one of their games and nothing shows, that is the reason, not a lobby fault. The same titles can exist in the lobby for other account currencies, so the choice you make at sign-up decides what you see.
It helps to know this before you plan a session around a specific title. Look at the filter further down: every pokie in it is open on AUD, so you can click through without a dead end.
Popular titles
Below are 16 pokies you can open on an AUD account. Filter them by studio, or set a minimum RTP to narrow the list.
16 of 16 pokies shown
No pokie in this set matches both filters. Lower the RTP floor or pick another studio.
The mix is deliberately wide. Games Global's Queens of Ra Rising Coin Collect is rated very high volatility in the lobby, while Camino de Chili Bonus Buy from Evoplay sits at low-medium, so the same A$ bet feels very different on the two. Hot to Burn Extreme is Pragmatic Play's take on a fast fruit game with a 96.65% RTP, the highest in this set. Multifly from Yggdrasil and Life and Death from Hacksaw Gaming show how far the newer studios push the format, and Goal Blitz Shootout from Iron Dog Studio brings a football theme to the reels.
Every RTP in the filter is the figure the BitStarz lobby lists for that game. Set a floor of 96% and a few titles drop out, Lunar Link Sky King at 93.77% among them. That does not make them bad games: jackpot features and link bonuses often cost a slice of the base RTP.
- Pick one studio first. Each studio has its own habits, so your second game from the same maker feels familiar.
- Use the tile name in search. Typing the exact title is faster than paging through the Slots tab.
- Watch the bonus bet cap. While bonus money is in play, A$5 per spin is the ceiling.
RTP and volatility
Return to player, or RTP, describes the long-term maths of a pokie: out of every A$100 staked by everyone, across an enormous number of spins, a 96% game hands roughly A$96 back. Your own evening of play can land far above or far below that line.
| Pokie | Studio | RTP | Volatility |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot to Burn Extreme | Pragmatic Play | 96.65% | Medium |
| Life and Death | Hacksaw Gaming | 96.36% | Medium-high |
| Multifly | Yggdrasil | 96.3% | High |
| Buildin' Even More Bucks | Play'n GO | 96.2% | Medium |
| Queens of Ra Rising Coin Collect | Games Global | 96.0% | Very high |
| Camino de Chili Bonus Buy | Evoplay | 95.98% | Low-medium |
| Wild Toro II | ELK Studios | 95.0% | Medium-high |
| Lunar Link Sky King | Playtech | 93.77% | Medium-high |

RTP and volatility here are the values the BitStarz lobby shows for these games. Across the whole AUD pokie library of about 6,000 titles the middle value is 96.11%, roughly two in three pokies are at 96% or higher, and just under 500 reach 97% or more. The spread runs from 90% to 99%, so the figure is worth a glance before you settle on a game. What changes your experience more, though, is volatility.
Why there are several RTPs
Many studios let the casino choose between versions of the same pokie, each with a slightly different RTP. Two sites can carry the same title at different figures. Yggdrasil, for example, publishes two versions of 777 Volt GigaBlox, 94.0% and 90.5%, so trust the figure shown inside the game you actually load rather than one copied into a list.
Where to find it
Load the pokie, hit the menu or the small i icon and scroll the rules. Studios usually print the RTP there. If a game shows no figure, treat it as not published rather than guessing.
High volatility
Wins arrive less often but can be large. Bonus-round pokies and many Hold&Win games lean this way. You need a bigger bankroll relative to the bet and the patience to sit through dry stretches.
Low volatility
Smaller wins land more regularly, so a balance lasts longer at the same bet. Classic fruit games usually sit here, though each studio sets its own profile, so check the paytable.
Volatility is also called variance, and studios do not always print it in plain words. Some describe it in the rules, others only show it through the paytable. The BitStarz lobby rates most pokies on a scale from low to very high, and on AUD the largest group by far is high volatility, about 2,200 titles, against roughly 300 rated low. Pick a bet that lets you play at least a hundred spins, and keep it fixed while you learn how the game behaves.
Mobile version
Pokies run in a phone browser without any install, and that is the main way to play on a phone.
- Mobile site
- Works in Safari on iPhone and in Chrome or any other browser on Android
- Android app
- An APK offered from the site, outside Google Play
- iOS app
- None, so iPhone users play in the browser
- Support
- 24/7 live chat via the HELP button at the bottom right of each page
The tile grid, the rails and the filter on this page behave the same way on a phone: swipe the rails sideways, tap a studio pill, and the grid reshuffles. Game tiles in the lobby scale to the screen.
If you go with the Android APK, download it only from the BitStarz site and allow the install from that source in your phone settings. Because it is not distributed through Google Play, Android will ask you to confirm the install. Nothing about the pokies changes: the app and the mobile site draw on the same lobby and the same AUD balance. Should a game refuse to open, the status page lists common error codes and what to try first.
How to find and start a pokie
From login to the first spin takes under a minute once your account is funded in AUD.
- Log in and check the currency. Your balance shows in the account currency. Pokies for AUD are listed because you picked AUD at sign-up.
- Open the Slots tab. Use New, Top or Trending if you want a shortlist rather than the full list.
- Search or open a studio page. Type a title, or a studio name in the box labelled "Find game or game studio".
- Open the info screen. Read the RTP, the bonus rules and the maximum bet before you start.
- Set a bet and spin. Pick a stake you can repeat, and look at the responsible gaming tools if you want a firm ceiling.
Funding comes first if the balance is empty. The cashier lists the methods open for your currency after login, and crypto deposits are instant on the casino side. For the full list of methods and the minimums that are published, head to the payments page, or see withdrawal time for payout speed. New players can also open an account to see the lobby directly.
Gambling should stay entertainment. Fix a spending limit before you press spin. When the pokies start to feel like pressure rather than a pastime, Gambling Help Online at gamblinghelponline.org.au offers free support to Australians. Players must be 18 or older.
BitStarz pokies questions
How many BitStarz pokies can I play with AUD?
More than 6,000. The whole lobby holds about 8,900 games, and about 6,500 of them are available on an AUD account, which includes the pokies, table games and live tables that take AUD.
Are there free demo versions of the pokies?
Demo play is not confirmed on the public pages, so do not count on it. Check the game tile after you log in. Bets in the BitStarz lobby are placed in the currency of your account, which can be AUD.
Why can't I find Starburst or Evolution tables on my account?
Some studios, NetEnt among them, do not offer their games on an AUD wallet. The list is on the Providers section of this page. Pokies from the studios that do take AUD fill the Slots tab instead.
Where do I see a pokie's RTP?
Every pokie has a rules or paytable page behind its menu icon, and that is where the studio prints it. Studios publish the figure there, and some publish several versions. Our RTP section explains how to read it.
Is there a BitStarz pokies app?
There is no iOS app. An Android app (APK) is offered from the site, outside Google Play. Everyone else, including iPhone owners, plays the mobile site in the browser. See the mobile section.
What is Slot Wars?
A weekly pokies tournament. AUD accounts take part. Prizes are not paid in A$ and the amounts are not published, so check the tournament page in the lobby for the current details.
Can I use my welcome free spins on any pokie?
The spin game depends on the country, so you see it in your own account. Free spins come 20 a day over 9 days, with 40x wagering on winnings. Read the minimum deposit page before you fund the account.
How do I fund my account to play pokies?
Choose a method in the cashier once you are logged in. It shows what is open for your currency. Crypto deposits are instant. More detail is on the payments page.
Pick a pokie and spin
