7StarsPartners & AffPapa: Sponsorship & Awards Beside BassBet’s Australian Warning
AffPapa made 7StarsPartners a 2026 sponsor & then named it Multi-Brand Affiliate Program of the Year. Its live profile includes BassBet. Australia formally warned Stellar Ltd over BassBet & later blocked further BassBet domains, while Spain acted against a separate company behind several other portfolio brands.
Checked 2 September 2026
What AffPapa published or retained
Active promotion confirmed. AffPapa's current profile has a join-program route, names BassBet & other associated brands, gives a 4.5 Trust Transparency score & lists Australia & Belgium among operating markets. AffPapa also documented 2025 & 2026 sponsorships & a 2026 award.
What the authority did
ACMA warned Stellar Ltd over BassBet & two other services; its later block list includes bassbet-1232.com, bassbet-5412.com & bassbet-6457.com. Spanish proceeding ES/2024/140 attributed several other portfolio brands to Adonio N.V. Neither cited authority names 7StarsPartners itself as the sanctioned operator.
