Online Gambling Laws & Regulation in SA

Online gambling laws in South Africa currently state that it is illegal to gamble online, but online betting is legal. The difference is that in betting, you are placing wagers on the outcome of the game, whereas in gambling, you are playing games of chance to win with real money.

To operate legally, an online casino in South Africa must have a valid gambling licence from the Provincial Licensing Authority to offer betting games in that province. Some casinos have multiple licences to allow everyone to play, while others only pick one.

Many players still choose offshore casinos, which have international gambling licences. Playing on these sites is illegal, and while the casinos might look good, you can get punished for playing there.

Playing at offshore casinos can lead to fines of up to R10 million or imprisonment for up to 10 years. Winnings will also be confiscated and forfeited to the state.

Why Players Trust Bojoko

You can trust what you read on Bojoko because we are an award-winning affiliate site with a pedigree. In addition to the MiGEA 2024 Award and iGaming Idol 2023 Award, we have been awarded several industry accolades and nominated numerous times.

In 2020, Bojoko grabbed the prestigious EGR award in the Casino Affiliate of the Year category. We won the EGR Nordic Affiliate of the Year and MiGEA Best Gaming Technology and Media Provider of the Year in 2021. And in 2022, we did it again by winning the MiGEA Malta's Best Affiliate Company of the Year award.

Here's how we did it:

• Transparency: Bojoko is an affiliate website owned by North Star Network S.A.S. Our experts test the betting sites and tell it like it is. We closely vet the sites we promote and only feature reputable online betting sites that play by the rules.
• Experience: Some of our team members have played for over 20 years and made it into a profession. Others have built their career working with local and international casino operators. We even have members who started reviewing casinos when the whole online gambling industry was still young.
• Expertise: We know what we're talking about, and this hasn't gone unnoticed. Our authors are often quoted in industry publications. We take an active part in the gaming industry and promote a safe, transparent gambling environment.

Our Responsible Gambling Standards

Bojoko takes responsible gambling very seriously. We only work with licensed online casinos that promote safe gambling. This is something that sets us apart from many others.

Our goal is to show you a realistic and truthful image of online betting. It is not just big wins and free money. It's real betting where you can also lose.

It's important to know your limits and play only with money you can afford to lose. Staying in control of your gambling should be everyone's top priority.

Our Casino Review Process

Our testing process is very thorough and transparent. We test every casino in-house and follow a scoring guideline that helps us deliver consistent results, giving you the most accurate view of the site. We go to the site, test out the casino, play there, and rate the experience. The casinos have no say in their scores, and it's all up to the tester and how their visit went.

When you read our casino reviews, you can quickly see how good the site is in any single aspect with our 5-star rating system. It helps you quickly determine if you want to keep learning more about the casino or if some other casino meets your requirements better.

First, we check five key categories: bonuses, games, payment methods, customer support and usability. To get good scores, the game selection must be good, bonuses worth taking, customer support fast and responsive, multiple payment methods with low limits and the site must be easy to use. We then combine these results into an overall casino score.

Ratings by Experts and Players

Every casino and betting site listed on Bojoko is reviewed by our own independent team. We score the casinos on clear and defined criteria, alongside verified user experiences and feedback.

You can help other players by leaving comments and ratings on our casino reviews. Let others know about your good experiences and warn them about things gone wrong.
