Editorial Guidelines

These guidelines explain how we create and maintain every review and guide on SA Casino Rank. They exist so you can judge whether to trust our work.

1. We only cover licensed South African sites

We only review and recommend betting sites licensed by a South African provincial gambling board. We don’t promote offshore or unlicensed sites, including offshore online casinos.

2. Reviews are based on our own research

Every review is based on our own research: the operator’s licence, its full terms and conditions, its payment and withdrawal rules, and feedback from South African players. Each review says what it is based on. Our full method is on the How We Review page. Each review shows who wrote it and when it was last checked.

3. Facts come from primary sources

Licence details are checked against the operator’s own site and the gambling board that issued the licence. Bonus terms come from the operator’s full terms and conditions. Legal information comes from South African legislation, regulators and court decisions. Where the law is unclear or disputed, we say so.

4. Commissions never buy a better score

We earn commission from some operators when readers sign up through our links. Operators can’t pay for a higher score, a better position or a more positive review, and they don’t see or approve our reviews before they’re published. We cover each site’s weaknesses as well as its strengths. See our affiliate disclosure.

5. Keeping content up to date

Bonuses, terms and payout times change often. We re-check licences, bonuses and key details every month. Pages show the date they were last updated or checked.

6. Corrections

If we get something wrong, we fix it as soon as we can. For significant corrections, such as a wrong licence detail or bonus term, we note the change on the page. Report an error at support@sacasinorank.co.za.

7. How we use tools

We may use software tools, including AI tools, to help with research, structure and drafting. Every page is checked and edited by a person before it’s published, and all research, scores and opinions are our own.

8. Responsible gambling comes first

We never present betting as a way to make money. Our content is for adults aged 18 and over, and every page links to free help. See our responsible gambling page.
