South African Online Casinos Offer Big Bonuses

October 12 - After a particularly chilly winter jam-packed with hours of annoying load shedding, South Africans can finally enjoy a well deserved sizzler of summer by the pool, by the beach, by the dam or logged on to their favourite South African online casinos, which are always trying to outdo each other in the big South African casino bonus stakes, regardless of their Rand casino software.

It is no secret that online casinos the world over offer the most lucrative and generous promotions they can to attract new players and retain existing ones, and South African casinos online are certainly no different. This is great news for you because you can pump up your real money playing funds just by depositing.

The way Rand online casino bonuses work is that they allow you the opportunity to add to your deposited playing funds by a specified percentage up to a maximum specified amount. Bonuses aimed at new or first time depositing players are called Deposit, Welcome, Matching or Signup Bonuses and are usually very generous.

SA Casino Welcome Bonuses

Welcome Bonuses are very simple to claim and use. Once you have made a deposit using one of the safe, trusted and secure banking methods offered by your chosen online Rand casino, you're given the option to claim your free Welcome Bonus. If you claim, your account will be credited with your deposit plus your bonus cash.

In SA land casinos, most floor managers have the power to reward your loyalty and continued support by offering you 'comps' in the form of free hotel rooms or suites, tickets for shows and/or sports events, restaurant vouchers and so on, but things work very differently in Rand online casinos as they are virtual entities.

With no rooms, meals, shows or events to comp, online casinos have to turn to the one thing they know players love - free bonus cash, which they're only too happy to give you as a new or existing player up front. Take African Grand Casino, which is currently offering all new players a vey impressive R4,000 Deposit Bonus.

Rand Bonuses Come With Ts&Cs

Although you do not have to claim the maximum Matching Bonus each time, if you want to ensure you get the 'maximum casino bonus bang for your Rand casino buck,' it makes sense to take advantage of every free cent you're offered. The obvious benefit of claiming a Sign Up Bonus is to up your playing funds for free.

The one thing you need to remember about Welcome Bonuses, all online casino bonus offers in fact, is that they come attached with a list of terms and conditions, which you should always read and understand before you choose to claim a bonus. These Ts&Cs dictate the bonus wagering and play through requirements.

In other words, how many times you are required to play through your deposited funds plus your bonus cash before you are allowed to bank and withdraw any winnings. The reason casino bonuses have these requirements is to deter 'bonus hunters', who only sign up at ZAR online casinos to claim the free bonus offers.

While online casinos in Rand are generally generous to a tee when it comes to dishing out free bonus cash, they only want to dish it out to serious online casino fans and not time wasters. Rest assured, however, that if you're a serious player, you'll find online casinos only too eager to reward you with free bonus money.

Look Out for SA Reload Bonuses

But what happens once you've used up your big South African online casino bonuses? Reload Bonuses, that's what. The majority of online casinos offer some form of Reload Bonuses which are essentially bonus offers open to all existing real money players, unlike Welcome Bonus offers that are solely for new players.

Usually listed under a casinos 'Bonuses' or 'Promotions' page, Reload Bonus offers vary from casino to casino and in generosity, but what they all have in common is that they represent free real bonus cash.
