Detailed LottoStar Review

LottoStar is a fixed-odds online betting site that is licensed and regulated by the Mpumalanga Economic Regulator. It was South Africa’s first legal lottery betting site and features a very varied offering. Next to numerous lotteries you can enjoy fun games and an online sport betting section with a fun twist.

Lotto Star are very committed to giving back to the community. Hence the company runs various charitable campaigns in conjunction with other companies as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.

LottoStar Offers & Promotions

Unfortunately, there is no dedicated Lottostar promotions page. This makes evaluating their offers rather difficult.

After successful registration we received a welcome bonus of R25 for free, which is valid for 48 hours. Getting a freebie was great to explore the site in more detail.

New players can also claim a 100% deposit match bonus.

In the absence of a promotions page we recommend you opt in for email communication as Lottostar South Africa sends special offers regularly this way.

Please familiarise yourself with the FICA requirements, terms and conditions of each lottery and promotional offers as well as the general terms and conditions.

Lottostar – Final Words

That is to say, LottoStar is a unique online betting site that offers copious amounts of games and lotteries from around the world. Currently there are 15 lotto draws available to bet on which is slightly less than other bookmakers offer. Lotto Star compensates for this with a big variety of other games, including Kino (similar to Keno), Live Games and fast-pasted instant win Quick Games. Additionally you can also do a bit of sports betting on the side.

The Lotto Star platform is overall very user-friendly across all devices. We especially liked our mobile betting experience, even so there is no dedicated app. From registration to depositing and of course placing our bets – everything worked quickly and hassle-free.

The overall experience with LottoStar South Africa has been a positive one. Wide-ranging payment options, friendly support team and thorough entertainment are definitely a plus. If they could more prominently display their promotional offers on the site it will benefit customers and would then make it a 5star site.
