How We Compare Casino Bonuses

The board turns every welcome offer into the same few numbers, so they can be compared honestly. This is where those numbers come from.

What we record for every offer

  • The welcome offer exactly as the operator states it, including the match percentage, the cap and any free spins.
  • The wagering multiplier, as published. It appears on every card and in the cost table.
  • The minimum deposit needed to claim it, in the currency the casino quotes.
  • The currency, because a euro offer costs a rand player conversion fees in both directions.

How the turnover figure is worked out

We express every multiplier as bets needed per R100 of bonus: a 30x requirement is R3,000 of bets for every R100 of bonus. It makes a 10x offer and a 50x offer directly comparable, whatever the headline.

The figure assumes the multiplier applies to the bonus alone. Where a casino applies it to the deposit and bonus together, the real job is roughly twice as large, which is why every review tells you to check the terms. Game weighting matters too: slots normally count in full and table games much less.

The order of the board

The order comes from our commercial lineup for South Africa, which reflects both the strength of each offer for local players and our affiliate relationships. We say so plainly because it matters. The figures on each row are independent of it, and a casino near the top with no published multiplier is shown with exactly that gap.

What we will not publish

No ratings, stars or scores. A number out of ten for a casino we have not measured on anything would be decoration that looks like evidence, so we leave it out. We also do not publish withdrawal times as though we had timed them; the banking table on the homepage gives typical ranges for each method.

How often it is checked

Offers are re-checked whenever the board is updated, and the date at the top of the homepage is the last time that happened. If something does not match what you see at the casino, tell us.
