Staxino

Launched in 2024, Staxino is the brand spanking new casino from Starscream Limited that boasts a game collection of 7,000+ releases from some of the world's most popular providers, including Big Time Gaming, Blueprint, Relax Gaming, Play’n GO and NetEnt. 

With a clear focus on slots, Staxino offers 5,500 of the most exciting titles which include classic 3-reel Vegas-style slots and the most modern cutting-edge games, including a wide selection of Megaways and jackpot releases. 

The games lobby is nicely laid out, and there is a menu on the left that helps you navigate between ‘Casino’ and ‘Live Casino’ games, as well as bonuses, promotions and the site’s loyalty program. Along the top of the page, there are also some handy buttons that let you jump to sections like ‘Popular’, ‘New’ and ‘Megaways’. 

But it's not just about slots at Staxino. You can also find a great range of table games like blackjack, roulette and baccarat. And if you want to dive into live versions of these traditional games, you can go straight to the ‘Live Casino’ section where you'll find a wealth of authentic tables with real dealers to sit down at. The live casino games are powered by industry giants such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming and Ezugi, so you know you’re in for a good time. 

When it comes to promotions, Staxino also offers a huge variety of bonuses and offers that can help boost your balance. Aside from the welcome bonus, you can also find deposit match offers, free spins and the ‘Legacy Ladder’ loyalty program. This tiered system lets you unlock incredible perks such as free spins, instant cash prizes and even weekly cashback. 

Not to be mistaken with the loyalty program, there is also the Staxino VIP scheme which gives you access to exclusive rewards, faster pay-outs and up to 25% cashback each week. This is an invitation-only program, so keep your fingers crossed and you may be selected to join the elite! 

Finally, in terms of deposits and withdrawals, you'll be spoilt for choice at Staxino. As a hybrid site, you can choose from traditional fiat currency payment methods such as credit and debit cards and eWallets, or dive into the exciting world of cryptocurrencies which let you deposit and withdraw in lightning-fast time. 

All in all, this is a fantastic casino, all the more impressive for it only having just launched.

Staxino is run by Starscream Limited. With around 30 casino sites under the Starscream umbrella, Staxino is in good company. Sister sites include LocoWin and Simsinos, which are also known for having great collections and easy-to-use sites.

The interface at Staxino isn't the most exciting I've ever seen, with a green, black and orange colour scheme more usually found at a sportsbook than an online casino. That said, Staxino may not be dripping in bells and whistles, but it is incredibly easy to navigate and everything is exactly where you would hope to find it. 

Discovering new games is as easy as pie, and you can jump to different categories to find new and exciting releases. There's also a handy search bar and a drop-down menu of game providers. One thing I really like about this list is that you can tick all the providers whose games you want to see, and effectively create your own bespoke list of titles to try. 

Staxino does not offer a native app, but I never see this as a problem. Apps usually only carry a small selection of a casino’s game catalogue, and with over 7,000 titles to choose from, reducing the collection down to such a small size would seem like a bit of a tragedy! Staxino’s mobile-optimised site works perfectly on any smartphone or tablet, so I don’t think anyone can complain that it’s not a native app. 

Slots

Starting off with slots, the collection at Staxino is impressive, to say the least. With big-name providers supplying the games to this catalogue, you'll find titles from the likes of Hacksaw Gaming, Blueprint, Games Global, Novomatic and Relax Gaming. But it's not just household brands that make up this eclectic collection. Smaller, more independent studios such as Spinomenal, Iron Dog Studio, Thunderkick and Nolimit City bring their own unique brands of slots to Staxino as well. 

You can jump to different sections of the site to find different titles including ‘Popular’ and ‘New’. One thing I've noticed at some other casino sites is that their popular and new sections will have a lot of the same titles, but this is not the case with Staxino. The team behind the casino has clearly spent time and effort hand-picking a great selection of games for each category so that you can discover a wide range of new slots. 

In the ‘Popular’ section, I can see some current fan favourites, including Gates of Olympus, Big Bass Floats My Boat and Fire in the Hole 2. But there are also a lot of classic games here as well, including Sweet Bonanza, Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead and Wolf Gold.

Over in the ‘New’ section, there are even more of the hottest new games, including Lady Of Fortune Remastered, Cash Strike Power 5 and Diamond 777. There's also a Megaways section dedicated to this popular mechanic where you'll find over 50 popular releases including Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways, Fruit Shop Megaways and Gonzo's Quest Megaways. 

For lovers of must-go jackpots, there is a dedicated Drops & Wins section as well. Powered by Pragmatic Play, this section is full of great jackpot games that must be won. 

Finally, there is also a ‘Bonus Buy’ section that contains slot games where you can buy your way into special features, such as free spins rounds. It's great that Staxino has created a dedicated area for these types of games, as the bonus buy feature is becoming more and more popular.

Live casino & other games 

If you fancy mixing up your gaming style, Staxino has a fantastic selection of table games and live casino to enjoy too. You can jump straight to the ‘Live Casino’ section, and once there you'll see some handy tabs at the top of the page that let you jump to ‘Roulette’, ‘Blackjack’, ‘Game Shows’ or ‘All’. 

In the roulette and blackjack sections, you'll find a wealth of variations to enjoy, including titles from Evolution Gaming and Pragmatic Play. Nestled in with these authentic live games, you'll also find a few video options such as European Roulette from Reevo. 

The ‘Game Shows’ area is also packed full of exciting and popular games like Sweet Bonanza Candyland, Sidebet City, Mega Ball and Dreamcatcher. 

Although not very clearly advertised, Staxino also offers a wide range of scratchcard games as well. With over 30 different scratchcards to choose from, I was surprised that they didn't have their own dedicated section. However, by simply typing ‘scratch’ into the search bar, you'll be presented with Staxino's great selection.

Another area where Staxino sells is with its promotions. There is a dedicated button where you can find the ‘Legendary Welcome Bonus’, as well as the ‘Promotions’ page where you can even filter by things such as deposit bonus and free spins. 

There aren’t actually all that many promotions on offer at any given time, but what is there is very generous indeed. It seems that Staxino is dedicated to no wagering as standard, which is always something we love to see here! 

There are regular deposit bonuses and free spins offers, but perhaps most interesting is the ‘Legacy Ladder’ rewards program. There are 20 levels to this program, and for every one you climb you can unlock bespoke bonuses and rewards that include free spins, cash prizes and the casino's exclusive ‘Big Spins’ that promise ‘epic gameplay’. 

There's also cashback of up to 10% available every single week. This is one hell of a rewards program, and every perk comes with absolutely no wagering attached. 

Staxino has even gone one step further with the Staxino VIP program. This gives you up to 25% cashback, as well as personalised support, exclusive promotions and giveaways and even better bet limits and faster withdrawals. This is an invitation-only program, so you just have to make sure you deposit and play regularly enough so that you might pop up on Staxino's radar and be able to enjoy this very exclusive VIP program.

When it comes to banking methods, Staxino is up there with the best sites out there. As a hybrid casino, it means that you can choose from an enormous variety of payment methods that include traditional options such as credit and debit cards and eWallets like Skrill and Neteller. There's also the option to use vouchers such as Cashtocode and Paysafecard, as well as old-school bank transfers. 

If you're into cryptocurrencies, you'll also find a great selection here including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Cardano. There's also the chance to use stablecoins such as Tether and USD Coin. 

The minimum deposit is €/$10 which is the lower end of the scale. The minimum withdrawal is €/$30 which is a little higher than I would have liked to have seen.

The processing time is just 48 hours, but as long as your KYC documents are up to date and you choose a fast payment method, you could see your winnings within the same day. 

Personally, I think hybrid sites are the best when it comes to payment options, and Staxino is a great example of my theory!

Staxino is owned and operated by Starscream Limited which holds a Kahnawake licence. Although not the largest authority in the world, the Kahnawake licence ensures strict adherence to regulatory standards, meaning that players can enjoy top-tier data security, player protection and reliable payment methods. 

According to Starscream themselves, you can also ‘enjoy peace of mind in knowing all games undergo regular testing by independent agencies to guarantee impartiality and fairness’.

There are a couple of ways you can get in touch with the team at Staxino if you need some assistance. 

Firstly, there is a very comprehensive FAQ page where you can find answers to queries about bonuses, payments and your account. You can also contact the casino via email if your question isn't urgent, but as usual, the live chat function is the fastest way to speak to a member of staff. 

The ever-present ‘Chat’ button is found in the bottom right-hand corner of the page and you'll be asked to give some basic details such as your first and last name, email address and the subject of your query. 

The great thing about this particular live chat feature is that there is no irritating chatbot to get through. I was put in a queue and managed to speak to a representative in under 2 minutes. They were friendly, professional and very knowledgeable. 

Although not quite 24/7, the live chat feature is available from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. CET, which should satisfy most players.
