REVIEW SUMMARY

Springbok Casino is a fitting name for a South African casino. Springbok is the largest town in the Namaqualand area of South Africa, while the Springboks is the nickname for South Africa’s international rugby team. Not surprisingly, the logo of Springbok Casino features the creature itself, because the original springbok, lest we forget is a type of antelope.

Because Springbok Casino is designed for South African players, the site is available in English and Afrikaans. If you’re based in South Africa and are keen to play online roulette, Springbok Casino has got your back, with instant play, download and mobile options. If you’re dead set on playing roulette though, don’t get too excited – European Roulette is the only game to be found, and it doesn’t appear to be available for mobile.

RATING BREAKDOWN

Springbok Casino is not considered South Africa’s best casino for nothing. It is definitely a safe, secure and reliable place for Roulette players to deposit their money – the 10’s are proof of this. However, its lack of Roulette Games and Live Dealer Games is detrimental to the casino’s overall ratings.

If you’re pondering the pros and cons of signing up at Springbok Casino to play online roulette, here’s an undoubted plus: new players can enjoy first deposit bonuses worth up to R11,500. That’s Rand, by the way, South Africa’s currency, and that sum equates to around US $820. This cash is split across 3 deposits, starting with a 100% match worth up to R1,500.

This is followed by a 50% match worth up to R5,000 and a 300% match worth up to R600 which can be claimed on any deposit i.e you don’t have to claim it as your third deposit necessarily.

For South African players, these sums may prove enticing enough to spur them into signing up. Should you join them in mopping up some of that sweet, sweet bonus cash, there’s more to look forward to further down the line in the form of 25% cashback. This isn’t available on deposit bonus cash, but the rest of the time you can contact the customer support team to request your cashback on every unprofitable deposit you’ve made. On an ongoing basis, there are also comp points to be earned every time you wager. These can be exchanged for various bonuses once you’ve amassed enough.

For devoted roulette players, there’s really not much reason to play at Springbok Casino. The paucity of roulette games is a glaring omission from an otherwise reasonably well-stocked site. You won’t find any roulette options in the Instant Play section whatsoever and it’s the same when you visit the mobile section of the site. Your only option, if you’re determined to play roulette, is to download the software to your PC, and there you’ll be able to access Springbok Casino’s complete suite of games, including European Roulette. The site does have a section dedicated to roulette, including a video showing actual gameplay, but this doesn’t change the fact that there’s only 1 roulette game to be found at the casino.

Aside from roulette, there are plenty of other games with which to while away the hours at Springbok Casino, but they’re not attractively presented at all. Click on the Instant Play section and you’ll be redirected to a games lobby where the categories are tiny and hard to make out, complete with a serifs typeface that isn’t easy on the eye. From a design perspective, Springbok Casino’s site is very poor. For the record, the games you can play in-browser include video poker, progressive jackpot slots, craps and keno.

GAME TYPES

Being South Africa’s number one casino, Springbok Casino sure doesn’t have a varied selection of games. Roulette players will find the spinning game in the Speciality tab. Get ready to be disappointed with the meagre choice between American and European Roulette available. The casino features a few other table games like Blackjack and Craps, an array of video slots, regular slots tournaments to join in on, and some video poker machines. There are no Live Dealer Games, and there isn’t a sportsbook either.

SOFTWARE

It is Realtime Gaming who is the driving force behind Springbok Casino and other known casinos like Casino Midas. RTG is a seasoned software provider in the industry and owes its success to its vast gaming library and the provision of its platform to many operators all over the world. To access the casino, Roulette players must download the software before they can make a deposit and begin playing.

SCREENSHOTS

BANKING

10

Should you decide that Springbok Casino is worthy of your Rand, you’ll need to deposit funds into your playing account. Games can be played for free at the site, but it stands to reason that you’ll want to wager actual cash at some stage in the hopes of winning a bunch on top. MasterCard and Visa are both available, with a minimum deposit of R25.

Alternative payment options include transferring funds electronically from your bank account via EasyEFT.

Springbok Casino also offers its customers popular e-wallets such as Skrill and Neteller, with a R25 minimum deposit, along with EcoPayz and secure instant deposit using the South African banking system. For withdrawals, the foregoing methods are all available. Wire transfer is also an option, but with R200 in fees and a minimum amount of R1,500, it’s not ideal. The site doesn’t detail whether there’s a waiting period before withdrawal requests are processed.

CURRENCIES

Being native to South Africa, at Springbok Casino, deposits can only be made in the country’s national currency, that is, South African Rand. The casino offers a world of options to make the payment process as painless as possible. To ensure a safe and secure gaming experience, the casino may request verification documents before processing payouts from players’ accounts. Those depositing by credit card must download, fill in, then submit an authorisation form.

MOBILE

7

Springbok Casino is available on most mobile and tablet devices. There isn’t as wide a selection of games on mobile as there are on the desktop platform. Nevertheless, players still have what to choose from with games being added on a regular basis. The casino is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and Android systems and there is no need to download any apps as the games are available on Instant Play. Their mobile-optimised site matches the desktop site in quality of design, user-friendly interface and all other functionalities. The casino’s main page features a tab dedicated to the mobile version for further instructions on accessing the site on the go.

JACKPOTS

9

On the homepage, you will find a moving commentary of current winners, and the prizes won. Unfortunately, Springbok Casino only has a handful of slots on offer when it comes to progressive jackpot games. The games available to play are Spirit of the Inca, Aztec’s Millions, Jackpot Cleopatra’s Gold, Jackpot Pinatas, Shopping Spree II, and Megasaur. All jackpots can be triggered by playing the maximum bet. There are also some progressive Caribbean games to add to their jackpot collection.

SECURITY

10

Springbok Casino is CDS certified and uses the latest advanced SSL encryption technology for all its site links. Furthermore, the casino only uses banking methods known for the highest safety and security. The site’s RTG software indicates the use of Hastings International RNGs (Random Number Generators) which are certified by the internationally recognised, Gaming Laboratories International. However, it’s bad news for the US players as they are restricted from playing at the casino.

VERDICT

In marketing itself exclusively at South African players, Springbok Casino has a captive audience. If it was competing against casinos from other countries, the truth is that Springbok Casino wouldn’t stand a chance. In the South African gaming sector where competition is thinner, though, it fares somewhat better. The tone of voice and all-round vibe of the site is cheery and the welcome bonus is generous. The plaudits end there however.

There are a lot of reasons why you might decide to play online roulette elsewhere, not least because you can’t do so at Springbok Casino without downloading its software onto your PC. Mobile roulette players and anyone who likes to conduct their roulette in-browser is excluded from grabbing a slice of the action at this old-fashioned South African casino which will appeal to desktop PC players only. With a better choice of browser-based games, Springbok Casino could be pretty good. Until that day comes, it’s simply not going to cut it.
