LottoStar Review for South African Players

Mpumalanga Economic Regulator, no. 9-2-1-09467 4.9 /5

LottoStar is a South African bookmaker licensed by the Mpumalanga Economic Regulator. LottoStar built its name on betting the outcomes of international lottery draws rather than sports, and that is still where it is strongest. Lucky Numbers, virtual games and arcade titles sit alongside a sportsbook rather than behind it.

4.9/5. Computed from what we could verify about LottoStar, not from our own play.
