Luckster is an Aspire casino and sportsbook that is rather delightfully themed on Irish luck.
Top “o” the morning to ya. We all know a “Luckster” this slang term refers to someone that whatever the situation may be they always tend to succeed, be it playing games or just in life in general. In my view I feel it good to know one as their good fortune can at times rub off on you. Anyhow, grab yourself a full Irish as we are heading to Irish themed Casino and sportsbook Luckster. So what’s the craic here? Is this place grand or for eejits, let’s find out.
Luckster was launched in 2022 by Aspire Global and is operated in Great Britain by AG Communications Limited. The casino delivers over 2500+ games from some of the most popular games providers which include Pragmatic Play, Games Global and Ruby Play to name a few. In addition the well respected Aspire Global operates 40+ sister sites including the established Mr Play and Vegasland.
Luckster is eye-catching with its green and white design. It does have an Irish feel to it with their logo, a green top hat and beard which I assume is a leprechaun. The casino is the homepage with links at the top to their sportsbook, promotions, account details and customer support. Their welcome package runs across the front supported by a lady with bright green hair, a green top hat and shamrock shades throwing dice into the air. It looks better than I described. It’s all very organised and structured with good sized game tiles in rows of 5 and navigating your way around is extremely straightforward.
The sign up process at Luckster is a simple affair taking a couple of minutes. You will be prompted to set deposit limits which suit your level of play and reality checks which tell you how long you have been playing for. You will also be asked to verify your email address before your player journey begins.
Luckster has an attractive welcome package which is a 100% deposit bonus up to £50 and 100 free spins. Free spins are on various slots spread over the first 5 days when you join. There are also 50% deposit bonuses on your 2nd and 3rd deposit up to £75. You can claim this by tapping or clicking on the above link. Both free spins and bonuses come with a reasonable 35x wagering, just be mindful to double check which games contribute 100%. Unfortunately quite a lot don’t, with an extensive list available within the T&C’s. Luckster will try to verify your account on opening. However, you could be asked for further verification before you play in line with the Gambling Commission licence requirements.
The layout across the Aspire Global network sportsbooks is very similar which is a good thing. Although this part of their platform is relatively basic it does offer 1000+ betting markets on a comprehensive variety of sports which includes UK and Irish Horse racing, European and World Football, Greyhound racing, Tennis and Golf which is great to see.
The layout of their sports book is uncomplicated. It provides a good in-play area focusing on football from around the world and esports. A great feature here is that you can highlight your go to sports by clicking or tapping on the star symbol and adding them to your favourites. Other features include a handy bet builder area for a variety of sports and a cash out option.
There is also an exceptionally boosted odds area focusing on the day’s football markets. Some of the bets there were good value. Luckster offers very little in when it comes to sports promotions apart from boosting your odds on accumulator bets with 4 selections or more. Overall this is a good stable sportsbook offering competitive odds which was quite impressive for a smaller outfit.
Tip:- you can change the odds format from decimal to fraction towards the top right.
I do enjoy a casino theme and was excited to scan all their Irish themed games via their search function. Whilst typing Irish there I immediately noticed an Irish slots category below as a variety of Irish themed games choices became available which was grand. 9 Pots of Gold, Rainbow Jackpots and Luck O The Irish Fortune Play 3 were at hand.
Navigating your way around the casino is very simple as there aren’t many categories to choose from. The Featured Games section generally contains classic and popular titles Starburst, Reactoonz, Primate King, Wolf Gold and Fire Joker are a few of the many games at your disposal there. New titles have their own category too which is bang up to date. With 100+ titles added to weekly, games there at the time of writing include Wild Wild Joker, Trillionaire and Shamrock Bonanza. Drops and Wins games get its own category but apart from that all slots are within the All Games Section.
You could choose to scroll through numerous games but luckily you don’t really have to as Luckster has a powerful search function where you can search for your favourites by game name or provider. This is a far easier option. Lastly there is a Progressive Jackpot section on the desktop version with 40+ titles which are generally Jackpot King games.
If you are using a desktop at first glance you get the impression that Luckster does not supply any other games with no dedicated sections for live casino, table games or anything in fact that is not slot game related. If you got it, flaunt it I say, I’m truly baffled why this platform doesn’t have a live casino category on this user platform.
However, you will be pleased to hear that if you are using a mobile or tablet, Luckster has a live casino and table games section which is absent via desktop and is great when navigating around these games on a mobile browser.
From a desktop point of view, there is a substantial amount of Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat in live and video form via the search function. The live casino games are generally powered by Evolution alongside Stakelogic and Games Global. Just by typing Poker in the search function 3 game variants popped up. Again there are also game shows available, titles include Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, Dream Catcher, Funky Time, Lightning Dice and Mega Ball (which is a great bingo alternative).
Also there are 40+ popular Slingo titles at hand, again you guessed it by means of the search function. Lastly if you look hard enough you will find a handful of crash and lucky tap games.
Alongside Luckster’s engaging welcome package are a few ongoing casino promotions. These include a daily spins frenzy, Pragmatic Play’s Drops and Wins and Global Games leaderboard tournaments. Just keep an eye on your emails as you do get customised offers dropping into your inbox from time to time.
Luckster is very much open for business through means of a mobile browser and all aspects of this casino platform is most definitely available on the go or even within your feet up at home. This casino is actually far superior on mobile compared to the desktop version. There are more categories of games available, and the sportsbook although more condensed is great to get around, with quick links to in-play betting and the bet builder function at the bottom. There is no app available at present but a mobile browser does the job just fine.
There are a great choice of banking options at Luckster which includes Apple Pay, Skrill, Paypal and Visa/Mastercard. Most importantly depositing and withdrawing is uncomplicated with no added transaction fees.
Finally, there are some good customer support options at all Aspire Global casinos with Luckster not being the exception. Alongside a clear and up to date FAQ section, Live Chat is available 16 hours per day with the added option to email the casino if you have any further question or queries. I was a bit surprised how challenging it was to find live chat support which seems only obtainable via your account details with a small chat icon there.
There is a great deal to like here, its subtle Irish theme, nice colours with simple design which makes navigating your way around easy. It has everything under one umbrella, a great games library with the convenience of a well stocked sportsbook if needed. This platform is far superior via mobile and I can’t help wonder why Luckster doesn’t just tweak the desktop version and mirror each other on different user platforms. Nevertheless, this place is well worth a look at especially if you like your gaming at hand on your phone.
