Online gambling in general is in a bit of a legal grey area in South Africa. While owning and operating an online casino based in South Africa is illegal, players are still able to access online casinos that are based off our shores. Thunderbolt Casino is licensed and registered in the Curacao online gambling territory. Until the legal status of online gambling in South Africa is formalised and a definite ruling is made, players can gamble offshore but it is advised to keep checking to see if or when this may change.
