Stake: Online Casino Games & Sports Betting

What makes Stake different?

Stake stands out by combining thousands of casino games, free-to-try slots, exciting bonus features and provably fair gameplay in one place. Here's a look at what makes our casino shine.

Stake Originals and provably fair gaming

Designed by our in-house Stake Originals team, these are the most exciting and unique games available exclusively on Stake, with our signature dark theme and bursts of colour. Favourites like Mines, Dice, Limbo and Plinko are among our most popular creations. Every Stake Original is provably fair: instead of simply trusting an RNG, you can actively check the outcome of every round. All results are verified on our site and via a third-party website, then stored using cryptographic hashing.

Only on Stake – exclusive games you won't find anywhere else

Only on Stake games are created by a wide range of providers using the Stake Engine, and can't be played anywhere else. Standouts from the collection include Sweet Fiesta 1000 by Pragmatic Play, Airstrike 2 by Titan Gaming and Tavern Drop by Paperclip Gaming.

Slot machines – themes, mechanics and bonus features

Online slots are the most popular games on Stake, with 260+ software publishers. You'll find big names such as Hacksaw, Pragmatic Play, Massive Studios and Nolimit City, as well as smaller studios including Backseat Gaming, Uppercut Gaming and Twist Gaming bringing fresh ideas to the library. We feature thrilling themes like wild animals, horror, fruity delights, sparkling gems and candy slots, and the titles that draw the most players include Sweet Bonanza 2500, Gates of Olympus 1000 and Sugar Rush 1000. Mechanics such as cascading reels, free spins, cluster pays and enhanced RTP keep things interesting, and our guides on how to play slots, the house edge and RNG help you get the most out of every session.

Live casino – real dealers, real tables, real time

Playing live casino games with real croupiers is easy at Stake. With more than 150 titles from publishers such as Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play Live and Animo Studios, the range covers everything from blackjack and live roulette to Dragon Tiger, Sic Bo, live baccarat and Live Monopoly. For something a bit different, games such as Stock Market Live, Red Door Roulette and Gates of Crazy Pachinko are always popular.

Burst games – fast-paced instant win action

Our burst games blend online gambling with video-game mechanics. Forget set paylines and standard reels; every round is its own experience, built on our Stake Engine technology, and many titles launch in early access before anywhere else. You'll find Keno, crash games, chicken titles, Mines and more, with popular picks like Pragmatic Plinko+, Aviamasters, MineDrop, Pachinko Planet and Drop the Boss. You can try any burst game for free with Fun Play before wagering real funds.

Poker – tournaments, cash games and more

Card games are always a top choice, and poker at Stake includes top titles like Stake Poker by Stake Originals and Poker Live by Evolution. A number of games are available Only on Stake, including Stake Rummy, Double Poker by Virtual Gold Studios and Gates of Bellatro: Hold'em by Gumble. We regularly run buy-in, freeroll and sit-and-go tournaments, and host cash games on a regular basis.

Table games, scratch cards and more

Take a break from mainstream titles and explore something different with RNG table games, scratch cards and more. Dive into RNG-based games like Hilo, Diamonds and Video Poker, and enjoy solo gameplay at your own pace.

How to get started on Stake – no download required

Getting started at Stake is as easy as clicking the Register button and completing the simple sign-up form. Provide your email address, username and password, accept the terms and conditions, and you're ready to play.

Can you play for free? Demo play vs real money

You can play the vast majority of Stake games for free by loading the demo versions – just flip the on-screen toggle from Real Play to Fun Play. When playing demo games you can't win real funds, and none is spent; all winnings are for fun only. When you load a new game it defaults to Real Play, and all wagers draw from your bankroll.

Minimum bets and managing your balance

If you're new to casino games, starting with the minimum bet is a good way to keep a firm hand on your bankroll. Start slow and build an understanding of how games work before boosting your wager.

Bonuses, promotions and VIP at Stake

From Daily Races to VIP rakeback, Stake rewards players with promotions and bonuses at every level. To maximise your gameplay, we offer top online casino bonuses and many ongoing promotions – from Daily Races to Stake's Weekly Raffle and Stake vs Eddie, there's always a new way to cash in on the offers up for grabs.

How rakeback and the VIP program work

The Stake VIP program is a rewarding way to play your favourite crypto casino games. After you create your account, you'll need to wager at least $10k to join the VIP Club and access exclusive rewards. Climbing the ranks is easy: the more you bet on the games available at Stake, the higher you'll climb, from Bronze to Platinum IV. Perks of being a VIP player include rakeback bonuses, reload offers and even a VIP host at the top ranks.

We make deposits and withdrawals simple and safe with a wide range of options. To play with crypto, deposit coins including BTC, ETH, USDT, EOS, Doge, LTC, SOL, TRX and more. To purchase crypto, we recommend exchange platforms such as Moonpay and Swapped.com, while seamless systems like Swap Connect and Mesh make it even simpler. Stake also supports Swap Crypto, letting you exchange one cryptocurrency for another directly in your wallet. Alongside crypto, we support a wide range of local currencies, and you can view your balance in any of them.

How your funds are protected

With over 100,000 bets placed daily, Stake is one of the best places to wager on your favourite sports. We cover all bases when it comes to sports and markets, and offer unbeatable odds to online bettors.

What makes Stake Sportsbook different

Join a community placing 100,000+ bets every day, with competitive odds and strong bonus offers for the best possible payouts. You can switch between odds formats – decimal, fractional and American – to read and compare them easily. Our free live streaming service lets you watch the biggest events, from soccer leagues and tennis tournaments to esports; look for the live stream icon while signed in and place live bets as the action unfolds.

Sports you can bet on

Bet on soccer competitions such as the Premier League, Champions League and international tournaments; browse markets on all NBA and NFL matches, including the NBA Finals and the Super Bowl; and find tennis on every grand slam, plus cricket, boxing, MMA, F1 and horse racing. For esports, we cover CS2, Dota 2, League of Legends and Valorant, with the biggest tournaments like the Esports World Cup and live streams of matches. Prefer something different? Novelty bets and prediction markets let you predict the outcome of major events in politics and entertainment.

Types of bets you can place

• Match winner, moneyline and 1X2 (three-way) bets.
• Parlays, accumulators and same-game multis for higher potential payouts.
• Over/Under totals, handicap (point spread) and correct score markets.
• Prop bets and player props.
• Live, in-play markets with cash-out on selected events.

Combine multiple selections to increase your odds – every leg needs to land for a parlay to pay out. Our Stake Shield feature lets you lower the risk, still winning a payout if your bet loses by one or more selections. And when live action isn't available, Simulated Reality Leagues (SRL) keep betting options open so you can practise before betting on the real thing.
