Gambling Laws in South Africa

Land-based gambling in South Africa is legal under the National Gambling Act 2004 (Act 7 of 2004) and its amendments, the latest being the National Gambling Amendment Bill from 2018. However, Section 11 of this law prohibits online gambling in South Africa saying that a person must not engage in or make available an interactive game except as authorized in of this Act or any other national law. Interactive gambling in South Africa refers specifically to games such as casino, poker and bingo. Online sports betting and online horse race betting are legal in the country, provided that the person conducting such business holds the necessary provincial bookmaker's license, or is using a website with proper license. On 20 August 2010, as a result of the North Gauteng High Court judgement on the jurisdiction of online gambling transactions in the country, online gambling offered through servers located outside the country was also prohibited. The body responsible for regulation of all types of gambling activities in the country are the National Gambling Board of South Africa as well as the many Provincial Gaming Boards. The National Gambling Board is responsible for the oversight of the regulation in the gambling industry throughout the country while the provincial gaming boards are responsible for granting licenses to operators in the gaming industry. According to South African gambling laws, minors, under 18 years of age are prohibited to participate in gambling activities.

The South African National Lottery is run by ITHUBA Holdings, which received a 10 year licenses in 2015.

Their list of licensed providers includes some of the most popular online sportsbook sites in South Africa as well as on the African continent, such as the sites of Sportsbet, First bet, Betta Bet and Betway. Horse betting is also legal in the country. Until 1996 betting on horse races was the only legal form of gambling in South Africa.
