The Most Popular Casinos in South Africa
South Africa’s online gambling market is thriving, with major international brands and local companies both present on the market. Not all of them are worthy of the players’ attention, though. Between game libraries and bonuses, these are the most popular online casinos South African players are attending.
Springbok Casino: Unique Games
Springbok Online Casino is one of the oldest gambling outlets serving the South African crowd. Its popularity is due to several factors – sharing its name with the South African national rugby union team is certainly one of them.
Springbok is special because of its game library. It is one of the few online casinos that have games by Spinlogic and Realtime Gaming, providers you won’t see at many of its competitors. Springbok also has attractive bonuses, a comprehensive comps system, tournaments, and something you won’t see at most other casinos – downloadable software.
Betway: Sports Betting And Games
Betway is a major international gambling brand with outlets in Europe, Asia, the Americas, and several African countries – including South Africa. It is a licensed betting operator, covering everything from soccer to eSports. It also has a well-equipped casino games section with around 250 slot machines, live dealer games, game shows, table games, a collection of Lucky Number games and Betgames, and virtual sports to bet on.
Hollywoodbets: A Well-known Local Brand
Hollywoodbets is a well-known South African brand. It opened its first betting shop in 2000 in Durban. Since then, its network of betting shops has grown to almost 100, and its online presence is unavoidable.
Hollywoodbets is primarily a sports betting brand but it has some games as well, most notably live dealer games from Evolution and Pragmatic Play, and hits like JetX and Aviator in its library.
Tusk Casino: Huge Game Library
Tusk Casino is a grey-zone international operator that’s especially popular among South African players for its support for deposits in rands and its huge game library. At the time of writing, it has over 9,000 (!) casino games in its collection from dozens of providers from all over the industry. This, paired with its frequent and generous bonuses, makes Tusk one of the fan favourites in South Africa.
Punt Casino: Huge Jackpots
An attractive welcome package, support for EFTs and crypto, cashbacks, and a comprehensive VIP program make Punt an attractive casino for South Africans.
And one more thing: it’s jackpots. The Punt website currently lists total available jackpots worth almost R45 million, with several games offering millions to the luckiest of their players.
To Conclude
Many online casinos are offering South African players an opportunity to play. Among them, the most popular ones include Springbok and its unique game library, Betway, local brand Hollywoodbets, and a couple of offshore operators with massive game libraries and large jackpots.
