Context for United States: The United States regulates online gambling state by state, not nationally, so an offer on this page is only claimable if you are physically located in a state where that operator holds a licence - most US states license no online casino or poker at all. Check the state, not the country. The Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement lets state-regulated poker operators pool players across state lines; as of April 2026 its members are Nevada, New Jersey, Delaware, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Nevada also requires an online operator to partner with an in-state casino, keeping its poker market small. SWEEPSTAKES CASINOS ARE A SEPARATE, RAPIDLY CLOSING CATEGORY: dual-currency sites (Gold Coins to play, Sweeps Coins redeemable for cash) are being banned outright, not regulated, in a growing list of states including Montana, Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, California, Nevada, Maine, Indiana and Oklahoma. Sources disagree on the exact total, so check your own state rather than any single figure - and note these laws can reach payment processors and affiliates too, not just the operator.

- A real, quantified welcome bonus combining match and free spins

- Exact wagering terms not fully quantified in this research pass
Our verdict
Stardust is a genuine Boyd Gaming and FanDuel Group partnership, and the licensing behind it is more specific than 'NJ and PA' suggests: New Jersey operates under Borgata's own casino licence, while Pennsylvania runs as an iGaming skin under Valley Forge Casino's licence - two distinct regulatory arrangements rather than one unified permit. The platform itself is FanDuel's proprietary technology, and the brand plugs into Boyd Gaming's B Connected loyalty programme for crossover with its land-based casinos. casino.guru's dedicated review of the NJ product reports no relevant complaints and no presence on any significant blacklist - a genuine independent positive. Worth flagging deliberately: casino.guru separately reviews a 'Stardust Casino Ontario' product with its own High Safety Index. That is a different market and a different regulatory product from the one on this page, and we have not carried its score across. One practical detail the previous version omitted entirely: withdrawal limits. Processing takes up to 7 business days, weekly withdrawals are capped at $4,000 with a $10,000 daily cap and possible further monthly restrictions, and any withdrawal exceeding five times your total deposits triggers a mandatory detailed gameplay review. None of that is unusual for a regulated US casino, but a big winner should expect friction before that particular check clears.
How we rated it
Casino (36%)7.7
A genuine Boyd Gaming / FanDuel Group partnership running on FanDuel's own platform technology, with real state-specific licensing: Borgata's licence in New Jersey, and an iGaming skin under Valley Forge Casino in Pennsylvania. B Connected loyalty integration adds real offline crossover value.
Bonuses & value (18%)7.5
A real, quantified welcome bonus combining a deposit match with a large number of bonus spins. Withdrawals are capped at $4,000 weekly / $10,000 daily with further monthly limits possible, and any withdrawal exceeding 5x total deposits triggers a mandatory detailed gameplay review - real friction for a big winner that is worth knowing before you play.
Trust & licensing (27%)7.5
A real positive: genuine state gaming licences in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. casino.guru's dedicated NJ review reports no relevant complaints and no blacklist presence - a genuine independent positive. Note: a separately reviewed 'Stardust Casino Ontario' product carries its own High Safety Index of 8.6, which belongs to that market, not this one, and we have not carried it over here.

How we verified this
Licence structure (Borgata in NJ, Valley Forge Casino skin in PA) taken from dedicated state-gaming coverage rather than the operator's own marketing page. We specifically checked for a same-named Ontario product before citing any independent safety rating, to avoid crediting this US brand with a different market's score.

About Stardust
Stardust is an online casino run by a partnership between Boyd Gaming Corporation and FanDuel Group, on FanDuel's own platform technology, licensed differently in each state it serves: under Borgata's casino licence in New Jersey, and as an iGaming skin under Valley Forge Casino's licence in Pennsylvania. It integrates with Boyd Gaming's B Connected loyalty programme for crossover rewards with Boyd's land-based properties. casino.guru's dedicated NJ review reports no relevant complaints against the brand and no blacklist presence. One deliberate clarification: a separate 'Stardust Casino Ontario' product exists with its own independent safety rating - that belongs to a different market and we have not applied it here. Withdrawals are capped at $4,000 weekly and $10,000 daily, with a mandatory detailed gameplay review triggered if a withdrawal exceeds five times total deposits.
