Iris Casino is operated by Galaktika N.V., with payments managed through Unionstar Limited and marketing connected to Royal Partners.

Who Operates Iris Casino?

The legal operator of Iris Casino is Galaktika N.V..

The casino’s current Terms and Conditions identify the company as:

• Company: Galaktika N.V.
• Registration number: 140803
• Registered address: Scharlooweg 39, Willemstad, Curaçao
• Gaming licence: OGL/2024/169/0146

These details matter because Galaktika N.V.—not the Iris Casino brand name—is the company entering into the gambling relationship with the player.

The operator is responsible for or ultimately accountable for:

• player accounts;
• deposits and withdrawals;
• identity and anti-money-laundering checks;
• bonus terms;
• account restrictions;
• responsible gambling procedures;
• complaints;
• compliance with its Curaçao licence.

Iris Casino is therefore a consumer-facing brand operated inside a larger legal and commercial structure. It should not be treated as a standalone company merely because it has its own website, design and promotions.

Who Owns Galaktika N.V.?

This is where the public disclosure becomes less complete.

Iris Casino’s legal pages identify Galaktika N.V. as the operator, provide its registration number and disclose its licence. They do not identify the natural persons who ultimately own or control Galaktika N.V.

There is an important difference between:

• the casino brand presented to players;
• the legal operator named in the player contract;
• the corporate group managing several casino brands;
• the ultimate beneficial owners behind that group.

Galaktika N.V. is confirmed as the legal operator. Royal Partners is visibly connected to the commercial network. Neither fact, by itself, publicly identifies the individual beneficial owners.

FabulousCasino finding: Iris Casino’s immediate operating company is transparent. Its ultimate human ownership is not disclosed through the player-facing documents we reviewed.

This does not mean the licensing authority lacks ownership information. Regulators can require information that is not displayed publicly on the casino website. Our conclusion relates specifically to what a player or independent researcher can verify from publicly accessible sources.

Is Iris Casino Licensed?

Yes. Iris Casino operates under the Curaçao B2C licence held by Galaktika N.V.:

OGL/2024/169/0146

The licence was originally issued on 28 October 2024. Galaktika N.V. is listed under company registration number 140803.

The current Curaçao Gaming Authority online gaming register, dated 10 July 2026, lists:

• Galaktika N.V. as the licensee;
• OGL/2024/169/0146 as the licence number;
• B2C as the licence category;
• 140803 as the company registration number;
• the licence status as indefinite.

This current register is important because older versions displayed expiry dates connected to Curaçao’s transitional licensing process. Those historical dates should not be used on their own to claim that the licence has expired.

What does a Curaçao B2C licence cover?

A B2C licence authorises the licensed operator to provide online gambling services directly to players, subject to the Curaçao framework and any territorial restrictions.

It identifies Galaktika N.V. as the company responsible for the gambling service. It does not mean that Iris Casino is locally licensed in every country from which its website may be accessible.

Players should distinguish between:

• holding an international Curaçao licence;
• being permitted by Iris Casino’s own terms;
• being locally authorised in the player’s country.

These are separate questions.

Is Iris Casino Licensed in the UK, Malta or the EU?

We found no evidence that Iris Casino holds a licence from the UK Gambling Commission or the Malta Gaming Authority.

The casino operates through the Curaçao licence held by Galaktika N.V. A Curaçao licence is not an EU-wide gambling licence and does not replace national authorisation where a country requires one.

Iris Casino’s terms expressly exclude numerous jurisdictions, including:

• the United Kingdom;
• the United States;
• France;
• Spain;
• the Netherlands;
• Sweden;
• Malta;
• Cyprus;
• Slovakia;
• South Africa;
• the United Arab Emirates.

The restricted-country list can change. Players should check the current terms before registering rather than relying on a review or cached version of the website.

What Is Unionstar Limited?

Iris Casino’s terms state that payment processing is managed by Unionstar Limited.

The disclosed company details are:

• Company: Unionstar Limited
• Registration number: HE 356131
• Address: Agias Fylaxeos & Zinonos Rossidi 2, 1st Floor, 3082 Limassol, Cyprus

The terms describe Unionstar Limited as a subsidiary of Galaktika N.V.

This means Unionstar Limited forms part of the payment structure but is not presented as the licensed casino operator. The distinction is important:

Company	Disclosed role
Galaktika N.V.	Licensed gambling operator and player-contracting company
Unionstar Limited	Payment-processing subsidiary

A payment descriptor connected to Unionstar Limited would therefore not necessarily indicate that a player has registered with a different casino company. It may reflect the group’s payment-processing arrangement.

Nevertheless, the operator remains the primary party responsible for explaining and resolving a player’s withdrawal. Referring to a payment processor does not automatically transfer responsibility away from Galaktika N.V.

What Is Royal Partners?

Royal Partners is the affiliate and marketing programme connected to Iris Casino and the wider Galaktika network.

Iris Casino links to Royal Partners from its official website. The programme has represented and promoted a large portfolio of online casino and sportsbook brands.

Royal Partners should not be confused with the legal operator.

Name	Role
Iris Casino	Consumer-facing casino brand
Galaktika N.V.	Legal operator and Curaçao licensee
Unionstar Limited	Payment-processing subsidiary
Royal Partners	Affiliate and marketing programme

Affiliate programmes commonly manage commercial relationships with publishers, media buyers, streamers and other acquisition partners. They may also provide creative material, tracking and campaign management.

That commercial role does not make the affiliate programme the contractual counterparty for players.

Which Casinos Are Sister Sites of Iris Casino?

A sister site should share a confirmed operator or ownership structure—not merely a similar website or technology platform.

The strongest relationship can be established where another casino’s legal documents identify:

• Galaktika N.V. as the operator;
• company registration number 140803;
• licence OGL/2024/169/0146;
• Unionstar Limited as the payment company;
• Royal Partners as the connected affiliate programme.

On that basis, confirmed or strongly documented Iris Casino sister sites include:

Sister site	Connection
SOL Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same Curaçao licence
JET Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same licence network
Fresh Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and Royal Partners portfolio
Legzo Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and licence OGL/2024/169/0146
LEX Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same Curaçao licence
Monro Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator, Unionstar payment structure and the same licence
Rox Casino	Documented Galaktika/Royal Partners group connection
Izzi Casino	Documented Galaktika/Royal Partners group connection
1GO Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same Curaçao licence
Drip Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same Curaçao licence
Gizbo Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and the same Curaçao licence
Martin Casino	Galaktika N.V. operator and Royal Partners connection

The wider Royal Partners portfolio has also included brands such as Volna, Starda, Flagman and Irwin. Brand portfolios and legal operating arrangements can change, however. A historic connection to Royal Partners does not prove that a casino remains operated by Galaktika N.V. today.

For this reason, each sister site should be checked against its current legal pages before the relationship is treated as active.

Do All Iris Casino Sister Sites Use the Same Terms?

No. A shared operator can produce similarities, but it does not make every casino identical.

Galaktika brands may share elements such as:

• account-management technology;
• payment infrastructure;
• KYC procedures;
• anti-money-laundering language;
• customer-support systems;
• responsible gambling tools;
• game suppliers;
• withdrawal policies;
• Royal Partners tracking.

Individual brands can still have different:

• bonuses and wagering requirements;
• restricted countries;
• supported payment methods;
• currencies;
• withdrawal limits;
• VIP rules;
• promotional calendars;
• game catalogues.

Players should therefore read the Iris Casino terms directly. Terms copied from SOL, JET or another sister site may be similar but should not be assumed to apply automatically.

What Does the Group Connection Mean for Players?

Knowing the group behind Iris Casino provides more context than reviewing the brand in isolation.

Shared account rules may matter

Iris Casino’s terms state that only one account is allowed per player, household, email address or IP address. Players should not assume that an account at a sister brand automatically counts as a duplicate Iris account, but shared fraud and risk systems could identify relationships across the wider network.

If a player has been restricted, self-excluded or involved in a dispute at another Galaktika brand, they should ask whether that status affects Iris Casino before depositing.

Operational history can be relevant

A newly launched casino may have little brand-specific complaint history. Its operator and sister sites may nevertheless have years of operational data.

That history should not be transferred mechanically. A complaint against one sister site does not prove that every brand behaves identically. Repeated patterns across several casinos operated by the same company can, however, be relevant to a wider risk assessment.

Payment similarities are likely

The shared Unionstar Limited payment structure may lead to similar:

• payment descriptors;
• verification processes;
• withdrawal-routing rules;
• payment-provider limitations;
• anti-fraud controls.

Again, this is a reason to compare the brands—not proof that every individual withdrawal will be handled in exactly the same way.

Who Is Responsible If Iris Casino Refuses to Pay?

The primary responsible company is Galaktika N.V., because it is identified as the website operator and gambling licensee.

Unionstar Limited may process payments, but the player’s gambling account and balance remain part of the service operated by Galaktika N.V.

If a withdrawal becomes disputed, players should retain:

• their Iris Casino username and registered email;
• the withdrawal confirmation;
• deposit records;
• KYC documents submitted;
• support correspondence;
• screenshots of the balance and transaction history;
• the version of the terms applicable at the time;
• the specific reason provided for any cancellation or confiscation.

The complaint should initially be addressed to Iris Casino through its formal support or dispute procedure. Where necessary, the player can identify Galaktika N.V. and licence OGL/2024/169/0146 in any regulatory correspondence.

Does a Curaçao Licence Guarantee Payment?

No gambling licence guarantees that every dispute will be resolved in the player’s favour.

The licence is important because it establishes:

• the licensed legal entity;
• a regulatory framework;
• operating and compliance obligations;
• a point of potential regulatory escalation.

It does not replace the need to examine:

• the casino’s terms;
• withdrawal limits;
• bonus restrictions;
• KYC requirements;
• complaint handling;
• the operator’s previous behaviour.

Licensing is one part of a trust assessment, not the complete assessment.

Transparency Questions That Remain

Iris Casino discloses several important elements clearly:

• its legal operator;
• the operator’s registration number;
• the Curaçao licence number;
• the registered address;
• the payment-processing company;
• the relationship between Unionstar Limited and Galaktika N.V.;
• the Royal Partners affiliate connection.

Areas that remain less transparent from the public player-facing material include:

• the ultimate beneficial owners of Galaktika N.V.;
• the senior management responsible for the casino;
• the precise technology platform supporting the brand;
• whether all brands promoted historically by Royal Partners remain under the same current legal structure;
• the operational division of responsibility between central group teams and the individual casino brand.

This produces a mixed but relatively clear result: the immediate legal and licensing structure can be verified, while the ownership chain above Galaktika N.V. remains private.

TrustLab View: Iris Casino Ownership and Transparency

TrustLab separates confirmed facts from reasonable inferences.

For Iris Casino, we can confirm:

• Galaktika N.V. is the legal operator;
• the company is registered under number 140803;
• it holds Curaçao B2C licence OGL/2024/169/0146;
• the current CGA register lists the licence with indefinite status;
• Unionstar Limited is disclosed as the payment-processing subsidiary;
• Royal Partners is the connected affiliate and marketing programme;
• Iris belongs to a wider network of Galaktika-operated casino brands.

We cannot confirm from the public player documents:

• the natural persons who ultimately own Galaktika N.V.;
• that every historic Royal Partners brand remains a current sister site;
• that a shared platform alone establishes ownership.

This distinction is central to the Fabulous Casino research process. We do not label casinos as sister sites merely because their layouts, bonuses or cashiers look similar. The relationship must be supported by legal documents, licence data or another credible corporate source.

Are all Royal Partners casinos sister sites?

Not automatically. Royal Partners has promoted a changing portfolio of brands. Current sister-site status should be confirmed through the casino’s legal operator, licence or up-to-date corporate documentation.

Is Iris Casino connected to Iris Capital in Australia?

We found no evidence connecting the online Iris Casino operated by Galaktika N.V. with the Australian hospitality and land-based casino business known as Iris Capital. The similarity in names should not be treated as evidence of ownership.

Final Verdict

Iris Casino is not an independent operator. It is a casino brand operated by Galaktika N.V. within the wider Royal Partners commercial network.

The immediate structure is reasonably transparent:

• Galaktika N.V. operates the casino;
• Curaçao licence OGL/2024/169/0146 covers the B2C gambling operation;
• Unionstar Limited manages payment processing;
• Royal Partners manages affiliate and marketing relationships;
• multiple established casino brands share the same operator or group connection.

The principal transparency gap is found above the operating company. Iris Casino does not publicly identify the individuals who ultimately own or control Galaktika N.V.

For players, the Galaktika connection provides useful context. It allows Iris Casino to be assessed against an existing operational network rather than treated as a completely unknown launch. At the same time, neither a group licence nor a large sister-site portfolio guarantees the quality of an individual casino’s withdrawals, terms or complaint handling.

FabulousCasino has established Iris Casino’s operator, licence, payment company and principal sister-site relationships. A full FabulousScore should only be assigned after the brand itself has completed the wider TrustLab assessment, including withdrawal testing, bonus analysis and ongoing operational monitoring.
