Target market for this review: New Jersey, United States. PartyCasino’s online casino product has operated in New Jersey since 2018 under a licensing partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City — the same state, and the same in-state skin structure, already covered in CasinoRadar’s DraftKings New Jersey review, but a different operator, different land-based partner, and a separately-researched review.

Verification Snapshot
- 🟢 Online-native origin — founded 1997 as Starluck Casino by Ruth Parasol, one of the earliest online-only casino brands, no land-based betting-shop or casino history

- 🟢 Responsible gambling messaging — directly confirmed on partycasino.com (self-exclusion link, 1-800-GAMBLER reference), consistent with njoag.gov’s New Jersey self-exclusion program already directly confirmed in CasinoRadar’s DraftKings NJ review
- 🟡 Payment methods — PayPal, Play+, Skrill, VIP Preferred, Visa/Mastercard, online banking, and cash at Borgata reported across multiple sources, not fully itemized on the operator’s own homepage

- ⚪ Games (full catalog), customer support, mobile experience — could not be reliably confirmed / not tested
Quick Verdict
PartyCasino is a genuinely online-native operator — founded in 1997 as Starluck Casino, with no land-based casino or betting-shop history — whose New Jersey online casino product operates under a licensing partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City. This review achieved a direct operator-site confirmation CasinoRadar’s FanDuel Pennsylvania review could not: a live fetch of partycasino.com directly confirmed the current welcome bonus, age gate, and responsible-gambling messaging, rather than relying solely on secondary sourcing.
CasinoRadar Score: 7.2/10
Evidence confidence: Medium (5 of 8 categories scored). Per CasinoRadar’s methodology, scores built on 5-6 of 8 categories are published with a Medium confidence label; 7-8 would be required for High confidence.
| Category | Weight | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing & Trust | 20% | Reported, consistent. Operating under Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa’s New Jersey permit since 2018 is reported across multiple independent sources; NJ DGE’s own registry could not be matched directly for this research. |
| Payments & Withdrawals | 15% | Reported, specific. PayPal, Play+, Skrill, VIP Preferred, Visa/Mastercard debit, online banking, and cash pickup at Borgata reported, with PayPal, Play+, and cash at Borgata described as the fastest withdrawal options at a few hours; a standard internal review period of up to 5 business days applies to all withdrawals. |
| Bonus Value | 15% | Directly confirmed. A live fetch of partycasino.com confirmed the current welcome offer: 200% deposit match up to $100, with a $10 minimum deposit and a 10x wagering requirement (14 days to activate the offer, then 14 more days to complete the wagering). |
| Responsible Gambling | 10% | Directly confirmed, cross-referenced. partycasino.com directly displays self-exclusion links and 1-800-GAMBLER messaging, consistent with New Jersey’s state-run self-exclusion program CasinoRadar already confirmed directly via njoag.gov in its DraftKings New Jersey review. |
| Transparency | 10% | Above average. Parent company Entain plc is listed on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker ENT, a FTSE 100 constituent, subject to public financial disclosure. |
Games, Customer Support, and Mobile Experience were not scored — insufficient reliable evidence found during this research.

Is PartyCasino Legitimate in New Jersey?
Reported and partially directly confirmed: PartyCasino’s New Jersey online casino operation, reported to run under a licensing partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa since 2018, is corroborated across multiple independent casino-review sources, and its current welcome bonus and responsible-gambling messaging were directly confirmed via a live fetch of partycasino.com. New Jersey law requires this in-state skin partnership of every online casino operator — a structural market feature, not a red flag specific to PartyCasino. One detail worth noting rather than treating as suspicious: partycasino.com’s accessibility contact is accessibility@betmgm.com, and Borgata’s New Jersey online-casino skins reportedly include both PartyCasino and BetMGM (a separate MGM Resorts/Entain joint venture) — suggesting shared backend infrastructure under the same land-based permit, a plausible and disclosed arrangement rather than an inconsistency.
Bonuses & Payments
Directly confirmed on partycasino.com: a 200% deposit match welcome bonus up to $100, requiring a $10 minimum deposit. A 10x wagering requirement applies, with 14 days to activate the offer from signup and a further 14 days to complete the wagering. Reported payment methods include PayPal, Play+, Skrill, VIP Preferred, Visa/Mastercard debit cards, online banking, and cash withdrawal at Borgata itself — PayPal, Play+, and cash pickup are reported as the fastest withdrawal options, processing within a few hours, though all withdrawals are subject to a standard internal review period of up to 5 business days. Always verify current terms directly on partycasino.com.
Responsible Gambling
partycasino.com directly displays a “Time-out and Self-exclusion” link and the 1-800-GAMBLER helpline reference in its footer, consistent with New Jersey’s state-run self-exclusion program, which CasinoRadar already directly confirmed via njoag.gov (the state’s own Attorney General website) in its DraftKings New Jersey review — the same program covers every licensed New Jersey online casino operator, PartyCasino included. New Jersey’s minimum gambling age is 21, the same age gate PartyCasino’s own site displays directly (“Only customers 21 and over are permitted to play our games”).
Games
CasinoRadar could not independently confirm a specific game count or slot-provider list for PartyCasino’s New Jersey casino during this research.
KYC & Verification
As an operator running under a permit regulated by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, PartyCasino would be subject to the state’s identity-verification requirements. Specific documentation requirements were not independently verified for this review.
Mobile Experience
CasinoRadar has not conducted hands-on testing of PartyCasino’s New Jersey mobile app, and no dedicated research into mobile-specific features was performed for this review.
Customer Support
CasinoRadar could not find reliable, independently-verifiable information on PartyCasino’s New Jersey customer support channels for this review.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: Genuinely online-native since founding in 1997 as Starluck Casino, no land-based casino or betting-shop history
- Pro: Directly confirmed on partycasino.com: 200% deposit match up to $100, 21+ age gate, self-exclusion messaging
- Pro: Licensing partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa reported consistently, the same in-state skin structure as DraftKings NJ
- Pro: Publicly traded parent (Entain plc, LSE: ENT, FTSE 100 constituent)
- Con: No specific NJ DGE permit number confirmed via direct registry match
- Con: Shares infrastructure with BetMGM under the same Borgata skin — not independently explained beyond what was directly observed
- Con: Games, customer support, and mobile experience not independently verified
Who Is PartyCasino (New Jersey) For?
New Jersey residents aged 21 or over who want a well-established, genuinely online-native operator with a publicly traded parent company and directly-confirmed bonus and responsible-gambling terms.
Who Should Avoid PartyCasino (New Jersey)?
Players who want a review built on a direct, machine-readable registry confirmation from the regulator rather than consistent secondary corroboration plus a direct operator-site fetch — NJ DGE’s own registry could not be matched directly for this research.
Final Verdict
PartyCasino brings a genuinely online-native identity — no land-based casino history, founded as Starluck Casino in 1997 — to New Jersey’s regulated market, operating through the same in-state licensing-partnership structure state law requires of every online casino operator. Unlike CasinoRadar’s FanDuel Pennsylvania review, this research achieved a direct, live confirmation of the operator’s own current bonus terms and responsible-gambling messaging. Licensing itself still rests on consistent secondary sourcing rather than a direct registry match, and games/support/mobile data remain unverified.
CasinoRadar Score: 7.2/10. Evidence confidence: Medium (5 of 8 categories). Testing: Research-based.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is PartyCasino legitimate in New Jersey?
Its operation under a licensing partnership with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa is reported consistently across multiple independent sources, and its current bonus and responsible-gambling terms were directly confirmed on partycasino.com.
Why does PartyCasino’s site list a BetMGM accessibility contact?
Borgata’s New Jersey online-casino permit reportedly hosts multiple skins, including both PartyCasino and BetMGM (a separate MGM Resorts/Entain joint venture) — this appears to reflect shared backend infrastructure under the same land-based license, not an error.
Why is the CasinoRadar Score Medium confidence rather than High?
Only 5 of 8 scoring categories had sufficient evidence, below CasinoRadar’s High-confidence threshold of 7-8. See our scoring methodology.
Sources Checked
Direct operator source: partycasino.com, fetched directly, confirming the 200% deposit match up to $100 welcome bonus, 21+ age gate, and self-exclusion/1-800-GAMBLER messaging.
Independent/secondary sources: multiple independent New Jersey-specific casino-review sites, cross-referenced for PartyCasino’s licensing partner (Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa), payment methods, and wagering requirements, explicitly labeled as reported/not independently verified where they extended beyond the operator’s own site. njoag.gov (New Jersey’s own Attorney General website), already directly fetched for CasinoRadar’s DraftKings New Jersey review, was reused as the source for New Jersey’s state-run self-exclusion program, which applies identically to PartyCasino as a licensed New Jersey online casino operator.
