This is a provisional score, based on public information about the licence, offers, payments, games and apps. It will be replaced by a full score after our hands-on test. Weights and criteria are explained on how we score casinos.

StakeMate welcome offer

We could not confirm a current StakeMate welcome offer from a reliable source. Offers change often, so read the promotions page and its terms before you deposit, including the wagering, expiry and any promo code. Pages listing StakeMate bonus codes are unofficial unless the site shows the same code.

Is StakeMate legit?

Yes, StakeMate is legit. It is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission to Bet Theory (Malta) Limited, account 66151, which you can check on the public register. The licence requires StakeMate to verify every player, offer deposit limits and time-outs, and take part in GamStop. We found no UK Gambling Commission enforcement action against this licence holder in the register or in public reporting.

Who owns StakeMate?

StakeMate is run by Bet Theory (Malta) Limited, which holds its UK licence.

StakeMate sister sites

StakeMate has no sister sites: it is the only brand the UK register lists under the licence of Bet Theory (Malta) Limited. For a block on every UK site at once, use GamStop.

StakeMate games

We could not confirm the size of the StakeMate game library from a reliable source. UK slot rules apply: a £5 maximum stake per spin, or £2 for players aged 18 to 24, and no autoplay or bonus buy.

StakeMate withdrawals

We could not confirm StakeMate withdrawal times or payment methods from a reliable source. As at every UK licensed site, your identity must be verified before your first withdrawal, so upload documents early.

StakeMate app

We could not confirm a StakeMate app. The site works in your phone's browser.

StakeMate welcome offer and promo code

StakeMate promo code. We could not confirm a StakeMate promo code.

StakeMate no deposit bonus. We found no current StakeMate no deposit bonus from a reliable source.

Safer gambling at StakeMate

StakeMate offers deposit limits, reality checks, time-outs and self-exclusion. For a block on every UK site, use GamStop. The National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 is free and confidential.

How to join StakeMate

  1. Open an account using your real details. Like every UK licensed casino, StakeMate has to verify who you are, and details that do not match can hold up your first withdrawal.
  2. Open the promotions page before you deposit. We could not confirm a current StakeMate welcome offer, so read the offer on the site and its significant terms yourself.
  3. Check the wagering, the minimum deposit, the time limit and any cap on winnings. Under UK rules wagering cannot be more than 10 times the bonus.
  4. Set a deposit limit in your account settings before you play. It takes a minute and you can lower it at any time.

What to check in the StakeMate offer terms

Without a confirmed StakeMate offer to describe, the useful thing is to know what to read when you find it. UK rules put the significant terms next to the offer, so these points should be easy to spot.

  • Wagering. Since 19 January 2026 it cannot exceed 10 times the bonus. No wagering is better still.
  • Minimum deposit. And whether every payment method counts towards it.
  • Time limit. How long you have to use spins or clear wagering.
  • Win cap. Any limit on what you can win or convert from the bonus.
  • Promo code. Use a code only if the site itself shows it.

StakeMate as a single-brand licence

StakeMate is the only brand the UK register lists under the licence of Bet Theory (Malta) Limited. That means no sister sites share its account rules or cashier, and the company behind the licence answers for this one site alone. If you want something similar, look at other casinos with their own licence on our independent casinos page.

It also keeps complaints simple. If something goes wrong, you raise it with StakeMate first, and if it is not resolved within eight weeks you can take it to the independent dispute service named in its terms. There is no wider group to escalate to, so keep copies of your messages and transaction history from the start.

How StakeMate ranks in our UK list

StakeMate is #571 of the 659 UK licensed sites we review. Its 8.2/10 compares with an average of 8.4/10 across all reviews and 8.3/10 across our short provisional reviews. Its strongest category is licence and safety at 10.0/10 and its weakest is bonus terms at 7.0/10, because we could not confirm a current offer.

The score is provisional. It uses fixed values for each category from public information, so it moves when we confirm more facts or complete our own test. Our scoring page shows the rule for each category.

Who StakeMate suits

StakeMate is a straightforward licensed casino, and the facts we have do not point to a particular type of player. Look elsewhere if you want a confirmed welcome offer before you sign up, you need a specific payment method (we have not confirmed the list) or you prefer a native app to a mobile site.

What we checked for this StakeMate review

For this review we confirmed the licence holder, Bet Theory (Malta) Limited, and its UKGC account on the public register (checked 21 October 2026), the domain stakemate.com listed under that licence and whether the licence holder has a public enforcement record. Not yet verified: withdrawal times, the payment methods, the size of the game library, whether there is a live casino, whether there is an app and the welcome offer. Where the review mentions those, it says so, and we do not fill gaps with guesses.
