Springbok Casino

Springbok Casino has been around for more than a decade, and since then, it has proven that it is a trustworthy and secure place to play. Realtime Gaming casinos don’t have the best reputation online due in large part to their bad track record in the early 2000s. Springbok is the big exception: for 12 years, it has proven that the reputation of the software developer - or the licensing jurisdiction - doesn’t influence the quality of the service provided.

In this review, we’ll take a closer look at Springbok Casino, its pros and cons, games, bonuses, and promotions.

Springbok Casino Lobby Jackpot

One of the first things you’ll see when you log into your Springbok Casino account is the Lobby Jackpot with the day’s jackpot amount. This is a site-wide jackpot that is randomly awarded to any participating player at any time. This means that you can win it instantly no matter which slot machine to play. 

To have a chance to win the day’s prize pool, you’ll need to:

• Opt into the Lobby Jackpot
• As long as you participate, every spin on every slot machine you play will deduct an extra R0.8 from your real money balance
• You have a chance to win the prize pool every single day
• You can opt out at any moment
• Only real money can be used to participate in the daily jackpot draw, not bonus funds!

To opt into the Lobby Jackpot, you simply need to log into your Springbok Casino account, find the banner on the top of the screen, and click or tap “Opt in”. 

Slots Tournaments

Every day, Springbok Casino runs a series of tournaments that you can participate in. Some of them are free, others you’ll need to buy into for a chance to win a share of their prize pool. 

To enroll into a slot tournament, head over to the Tournaments section from the site menu. The first time you visit this section, you’ll need to set a nickname. Here, you’ll find the list of available tournaments. Each day, you’ll be able to access several, some with buy-ins, others, free:

Clicking on the tournament will give you all the information you need about it, like the buy-in amount, the game you’ll have to play, the type of the tournament and the prize pool. It will also show you how many players you’ll be competing against. In general, the higher the buy-in, the smaller the tournament, and vice versa - there can be 25,000 concurrent players in the freeroll, but only 1,000 in the R50 buy-in R500 tournament.

25% Cashback

All these deposit bonuses and special offers are nice - but what if you don’t want a deposit match? Well, you still get a bonus in the form of a 25% cashback for any deposit that you make without claiming a bonus - even multiple deposits not older than 60 days. Of course, there are conditions that you need to fulfill to be able to claim it:

• Your balance must be between R0 and R50
• You can claim cashbacks for deposits up to R12,000, which translates to a maximum amount of R3,000
• The cashback offer can’t be combined with other bonuses, like deposit matches or free spins
• You need to play through the amount you claim 10 times on Slots, Keno, Bongo and Scratch Cards

Springbok Casino Loyalty Program

Every time you wager at Springbok Casino, you collect comp points. You collect them at a rate of 1 point for every R10 you spend. There are also games where you can earn more comp points - like the Game of the Month that automatically comes with double comps.

When you accumulate at least 100 comp points, you can exchange them for cash at a rate of R1 for every 100 comp points. 

Springbok Casino registration

Opening an account at Springbok Casino is simple and easy. There’s a three-step registration form that you need to complete with your personal information, address, gender, email address, and phone number. You won’t have to verify any of them - all you get is a welcome email. Note that you won’t be able to register without providing a phone number and accepting communications from the casino by SMS. 

Once you register your account, you can dive right into playing. 

Springbok Casino login

Logging into your Springbok Casino account is quick and easy. Note that you will need to use your username and password - logging in with your email address won’t work. If you forget your username and password, you can request a reminder right from the login popup window. 

• If you forget your username, you can request a reminder. Springbok Casino will send it to your email address.
• If you forget your password, you’ll have to type in your username and email address. You’ll get a security code by email that you’ll have to provide. With it, you can change your password instantly and log right in.

Practice Mode

When logging in, you will have a choice to connect to your fully fledged Springbok Casino account or to connect in practice mode. In practice mode, you get access to every function of the casino and you get a bonus balance worth R1,000. This is perfect if you want to explore the casino and try the games before making a deposit. 

Everything in your account is fully functional in practice mode, except for the cashier - there are no options for making deposits or withdrawals in this play mode. 

Springbok Casino Payment Methods

Springbok Casino does work with a few major foreign currencies - you can deposit US dollars and euros from your credit and debit card, for example - but its main focus is South Africa, and deposits and withdrawals in rands. Plus, it supports several popular South African casino payment methods.

Deposit Methods

Unfortunately, prepaid vouchers are not supported at Springbok Casino with the exception of Cash2Code and Neosurf Voucher, which can be bought online. Still, this leaves enough deposit methods for you to top up your account quickly and easily:

Withdrawal methods

Unfortunately, the number of withdrawal methods available at Springbok Casino is much more limited. At the time of writing, the Cashier only shows three available payment methods:

As you can see, the minimum amount you can request a withdrawal for is R500 for each payment method. And, for each withdrawal method, the standard maximum limit is R25,000 per transaction. The withdrawals are not instant, of course. Once you request a withdrawal, the information is transmitted to the appropriate department that will process it. Springbok Casino will keep you posted about its progress by email.

Withdrawals at Springbok Casino take at least 2 days to be processed. They are processed on business days only, not on the weekends.

Account Verification

If you plan to make a deposit using a credit or debit card, you will need to verify your account first. And so will you before your first withdrawal. To complete the verification, you will need to confirm that you are indeed you - or, in more technical terms, that the personal details you provided when registering your account are indeed true and accurate. To verify your account, you will have to send copies of the requested documents to the email address documents@springbokcasino.co.za:

• A clear picture of your government-issued photo ID. It can be a National Identity Card, a driver’s license or your passport. The document should clearly show your name and picture.
• Proof of address in the form of a utility bill or a bank statement. It has to be a coloured copy of the document and it can’t be older than 90 days
• If you used cryptocurrency to make deposits and want to withdraw to your crypto wallet, you’ll need to submit a photo of your government-issued photo ID that you hold next to your face. 
• If you used a credit or debit card to make a deposit, the casino can ask for a photo of the card, front and back. While this is not specified, casinos accept pictures with the security code covered.
• If you used an e-Wallet to make a deposit, the casino can ask for a screenshot of the e-Wallet account showing your registration information

Springbok Casino Games

Springbok Casino is a single-provider online casino. This means that it only features games from one developer - in our case, it’s SprinLogic (Realtime Gaming). This unfortunately means that the number of games available at the Springbok Casino is very limited: it only has 241 games in total, most of them slot machines. And, of course, it doesn’t have any live dealer games.

Springbok Casino Slot Machines

Most games at Springbok are video slot machines, some of them 3-reel slots, a handful of 6-reel ones, and a few of them have special features. In the lobby, you’ll be able to filter the list of games by the number of reels, special features like bonus rounds or “pay any direction”, and, of course, jackpots.

Springbok Casino Progressive Jackpot Slots

Springbok Casino has several games with local jackpots, and five that come with the prize we all dream of winning someday: progressive jackpots:

The casino also has a handful of progressive jackpot table games. These may have smaller jackpots but they are a welcome alternative if you are getting tired of slot machines:

All three games have progressive jackpots that exceed R350,000.

“Double Comps”

There are a few games, aside from the Game of the Month, which earn you double comp points. At the time of writing, these are:

Video Poker

Springbok has a selection of 15 video poker games. Many of them are bonus variants where you can attempt extra wins. 

Table Games and Other Games

Springbok has a small selection of table games. Very small indeed: only 8 of them which barely cover the basics. Still, it has two side-bet blackjack variants, several casino poker titles, and baccarat. It also has a “Specialty” category that includes some games that don’t fit anywhere else: Roulette, Keno, Banana Jones, and Fish Catch. They are a welcome change after so many rounds of online slots, so give them a try - you may be surprised how much fun they can be.

Springbok Casino on Mobile

Springbok Casino doesn’t have a native smartphone app. What it has, in turn, is a fully-fledged mobile-friendly website that you can access from your smartphone’s browser. To make it easier to access, you can always add a shortcut to the casino to your phone’s home screen:

• Chrome and Edge: Go to the browser’s hamburger menu (☰), and select “Add to Home Screen”
• Safari: Navigate to the Tusk Casino website, tap “Sharing”, then “Add to Home Screen”
• DuckDuckGo and Firefox: Open the browser’s menu (☰) and tap “Add to Home Screen”

Springbok Casino Terms

The Terms and Conditions of Springbok Casino are pretty clear and complete. They cover everything from bonuses to deposits and comp points. We couldn’t find any dubious terms that would make us worry about the trustworthiness of the casino.

Springbok Casino Safety and Security

The operations of Springbok Casino are secured by Cloudflare. The casino uses industry-standard encryption to protect the players’ personal and banking information. The only thing we can complain about is that it doesn’t use two-factor authentication, something that should be standard nowadays.

Springbok Casino User Experience

At first sight, the Springbok Casino lobby looks and feels a bit outdated - at least on desktop computers. It looks much more professional on mobile, which makes us think that it’s a mobile-first design. The overall experience is good, even though the design is very plain, almost minimalistic. All things considered, our experience with Springbok Casino was positive.

Responsible Gaming

Compared to some other casinos, the responsible gaming tools available at Springbok Casino feel insufficient. The tools available are self-exclusion and daily or monthly deposit limits. For both, you need to contact Springbok’s customer support as opposed to some of its competitors, where you can set them right from your account.

Springbok Casino Customer Support and Contact

You can reach out to Springbok Casino through the usual live chat service all day round if you’re stuck, stranded or just plain gatvol. You can also contact Springbok Casino by:

• Email: help@springbokcasino.co.za
• Phone: you can schedule a callback via the site’s live chat function.
