A lucky player from Gauteng walked away from his play on Jackpot Cleopatra’s Gold Deluxe at SilverSands Casino, with R2,724,363.76 extra in his back pocket.  The winner wagered just R5, before winning the life-changing sum in a single spin of Realtime Gaming’s recently released progressive slot.

Named only as Z. Smit, the winner was referred to SilverSands Casino from the leading online casino and gambling guide, SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za. He is one of literally thousands of South Africans who regularly use the website as a guide to find the safest and best-recommended online casinos for South African players.

SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za has been in operation since 2003 and is considered the largest and most reputable casino online gambling guide in the SA online gambling industry.  Players trust the site’s recommendations and unbiased reviews when it comes to online casinos, bonuses, promotions and banking options. The site keeps readers updated about the latest industry news, new games and newest casino offers.

“Every time I’m on the lookout for a new online casino to try out, I first check out what the guys at SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za have to say,” said Z. Smit, who hails from Johannesburg. “I trust their judgement blindly and I just know that they have my best interests as a ZAR casino gambler at heart.”

“After I read their detailed review about SilverSands online Casino, I decided to give this site a shot,” he continued. “I liked the fact that it is powered by one of my favourite game providers, Realtime Gaming (RTG), and that it’s fully licensed and regulated. The generous no deposit bonus for new players sealed the deal for me!”

Z. Smit is referring to the exclusive R300 free No Deposit Bonus that has been negotiated by SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za for all players that it refers to SilverSands Casino. Using the coupon code NDC300, players get R300 in free credits to play the hundreds of slot games at the online casino, without having to deposit a cent into their account.

After registering an account at Silver Sands Casino via SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za, Z. Smit tried out a couple of RTG video slots before turning his attention to the group’s newest arrival, Jackpot Cleopatra’s Gold Deluxe.

This five-reel, 25 fixed pay line slot is a revamped and upgraded version of RTG’s classic jackpot game, Cleopatra’s Gold.  The latest game boasts plenty of bonus features to boost any bankroll, including a wild multiplier Cleopatra symbol, Pyramid scatters that unlock 15, re-triggerable free spins and a progressive jackpot that’s reseeded each time at $100,000.

It took just one R5 spin on this Ancient Egyptian-themed video slot for Z. Smit to hit the progressive jackpot and become an instant millionaire nearly 3 times over.

“I was in a state of shock after I saw that number with the endless digits flash across my screen,” recalled the winner. “I didn’t really believe it was real until customer support from SilverSands Casino contacted me to confirm. It’s like a dream come true. Like most South Africans, I’ve had quite a challenging year because of the pandemic and my income took a blow. I can’t tell you how this money comes just at the right time. I can now afford to fix my roof, buy my wife a car and pay my kids’ school fees. I’m SO glad that I listened to www.SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za !”

Ygam team up with TSB Bank

Ygam and TSB Bank have joined forces to help increase understanding of in-game spending and help young gamers manage their money with confidence.

Ygam and TSB Bank have joined forces to help increase understanding of in-game spending and help young gamers manage their money with confidence.  

As part of this collaboration, they have co-created specialist educational resources for schools. Developed with Ygam’s expertise and delivered by TSB Bank staff as part of their school’s programme which runs throughout the UK, the module aims to provide young gamers with practical guidance on managing their money and understanding potential financial risks while gaming. 

A recent Censuswide survey of over 2,000 young gamers, commissioned by TSB, found that while the average initial cost of a game is £32, gamers spend an average of £540 annually on in-game purchases and subscriptions. Nearly half (47%) of those who spend money in-game feel they have little or no control over their spending while playing. 

Linda Scollins Smith, Director of Programmes at Ygam, said: “Gaming now plays a central role in young people’s lives, offering significant benefits. However, it is always important to safeguard against the risks, and the increasing sophistication of game monetisation through microtransactions and in-game purchases underscores the need for education on this issue. We are delighted to be working with TSB to support their school programmes, combining financial education with gaming education, to help young gamers develop healthy habits and navigate the digital world safely.”

Kate Osiadacz, Head of Responsible Business, TSB, said: “Gaming is often one of young people’s first interactions with spending or managing their money digitally; so we’re pleased to be working with Ygam to reach young people with targeted advice. Our Money Confident schools programme greatly benefits from Ygam’s insight – and we’re keen help empower the next generation to make informed decisions for their financial lives ahead.” 

According to a 2024 Mumsnet survey commissioned by Ygam, 88% of parents in the UK believe schools should provide education on gaming, despite only 35% reporting that their children currently do. Furthermore, 99% of these parents think this education should begin by the end of Key Stage 2. 

Alongside developing educational resources, Ygam and TSB Bank will collaborate on a range of initiatives throughout 2025 to raise awareness of this issue and support families in avoiding unexpected costs from gaming.

Battle Orb has been designed with comfort and safety in mind, earning a “Comfortable” rating and PEGI 3 classification, making it appropriate for players of all ages while still delivering compelling gameplay for serious competitors.
