Stardust Keeps the Offers Coming All Year
Reload bonuses, free spin drops, and Canadian holiday campaigns, each one running on its own schedule and its own terms.
How Promotions Work at Stardust
Last updated: September 30, 2026
The welcome package on the /bonus/ page is only the start. Once you're playing, Stardust runs a rotating calendar of promotions built around reload deposits, free spin drops on selected slots, and campaigns timed to the Canadian calendar. Nothing here is permanent and nothing is guaranteed to repeat exactly, so the emphasis is on how the cadence works rather than fixed figures.
A Rolling Calendar, Not a One-Off Bonus
Most Canadian players who stick with Stardust for more than a few weeks notice the same pattern: a welcome offer gets them started, then a steady stream of smaller promotions keeps the account active. Reload offers typically land around a deposit, giving returning players a bonus on top of money they were already planning to add to their balance. Free spin drops tend to arrive tied to specific slot releases or provider promotions from studios like Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, or Play'n GO. None of these are advertised with permanent numbers on this page, because the offers themselves change. Always check the in-account promotions tab or your email for the live terms, wagering requirements, and expiry windows before opting in. T&Cs apply.
Reload Offers
Reload promotions are aimed at players who have already used their welcome package and want a reason to top up again. These offers typically run on set days or short windows rather than being available every time you deposit. Eligibility, minimum deposit amount, and wagering requirements are set per offer and shown at opt-in. As with every bonus at Stardust, T&Cs apply, including game restrictions and maximum bet limits while wagering.
Free Spin Drops
Free spin drops are usually shorter, sharper promotions tied to a specific slot title or a provider push. They might appear as a reward for playing a certain game during a set week, or as part of a broader campaign. The number of spins, the eligible game, and the wagering conditions on any winnings are always disclosed in the specific offer's terms. Spins expire, so check the countdown in your account rather than assuming they carry over indefinitely.
Seasonal and Holiday Campaigns
Stardust builds seasonal campaigns around the Canadian calendar. Thanksgiving in October and Victoria Day in May are typical anchor points, along with winter holiday promotions and other long-weekend windows throughout the year. These campaigns might combine a reload offer with free spins, or introduce a short-term leaderboard or prize draw. The structure varies by season, so this page won't lock in specific numbers or dates for offers that haven't launched yet. What stays consistent is the format: check the promotions tab in your account in the days leading up to a Canadian holiday weekend, read the terms in full, and opt in before making a qualifying deposit if the offer requires it.
Opting In Correctly
- Check the promotions tab in your Stardust account before depositing, since some offers require opt-in beforehand.
- Read the wagering requirement and time limit attached to that specific promotion, as they differ from the welcome package.
- Note any maximum bet size while wagering a bonus, since exceeding it can void the bonus and its winnings.
- Confirm which games count toward wagering. Live dealer tables and jackpot slots are often excluded or weighted differently.
- Keep an eye on expiry timers for free spins and bonus funds. Unused amounts are typically forfeited once the window closes.
Why Stardust Doesn't Publish Fixed Numbers Here
Promotions change based on the season, the game catalogue, and provider partnerships. Publishing a bonus percentage or a spin count on this page that doesn't match what's live in your account would only cause confusion. Instead, treat this page as the explanation of how the promotional calendar works, and treat your account's promotions tab as the source of truth for what's actually running today. T&Cs apply to every single offer, no exceptions.
Playing Within Your Limits During Promotions
A promotion is still a reason to deposit, so it's worth pairing every opt-in with the same budget discipline you'd use anywhere else. Stardust's responsible gaming tools, including deposit limits and self-exclusion options, work the same way whether or not a bonus is active. If gambling stops feeling like entertainment, ConnexOntario (1-866-531-2600, https://www.connexontario.ca/) offers free, confidential support across Canada. You must be 19 or older to hold a Stardust account and to take part in any promotion.

How Promotions Work at Stardust
How often does Stardust launch new promotions?
There's a rolling calendar of reload offers, free spin drops, and seasonal campaigns throughout the year, but exact frequency varies. Check your account's promotions tab regularly, since some offers run for a single weekend.
Do I need to opt in to Stardust promotions manually?
Most promotions require opt-in through your account before you deposit or play. Some free spin drops may be credited automatically to eligible players. Always check the specific offer's terms, since T&Cs apply to each one.
Will Stardust run a promotion for Thanksgiving or Victoria Day?
Stardust builds seasonal campaigns around Canadian holiday weekends including Thanksgiving and Victoria Day, though the exact structure and dates vary each year. Watch your account and email in the weeks before these dates for the live offer.
Do free spins from a promotion have wagering requirements?
Yes. Winnings from free spins typically carry their own wagering requirement and expiry window, separate from the welcome package. These are shown at opt-in and in the specific promotion's terms.
Can I combine a reload offer with other Stardust promotions?
That depends on the specific offers involved. Some promotions can run alongside each other while others are exclusive. The opt-in terms for each promotion will state whether it can be combined with another active offer.
