At Goldrush Gaming Group, we prioritise delivering gaming experiences that are fully compliant with South African gambling laws. Our Electronic Bingo Terminals (EBTs) are licensed by the relevant Provincial Gambling Boards and adhere to the strict regulatory guidelines set forth by the National Gambling Act and applicable provincial legislation.
Legally Recognised Bingo Games
Goldrush EBTs are officially classified as bingo games and meet all operational and technical standards required by South African law. While these terminals feature visually engaging and modern designs to enhance player enjoyment, they remain fundamentally different from slot machines and retain their classification as bingo games.
The Difference Between EBTs and Slot Machines
EBTs and slot machines may appear similar but operate in distinct ways:
- Slot Machines: Each spin uses an internal random number generator (RNG), making each outcome a completely standalone and random event. Slot machines are considered casino games and require specific licensing to operate, restricting their use to casinos or Limited Payout Machine (LPM) venues.
- EBTs: These terminals are part of a centralised system. Game outcomes are determined by a regulated bingo draw conducted by a central server. Players’ virtual bingo cards are matched against the drawn numbers. Visual features like spinning reels and themed symbols are added solely for entertainment purposes and have no influence on the results.
Transparency in Terminology
On Goldrush platforms, terms such as “casino,” “slots,” or “casino games” are occasionally used to describe the aesthetic elements or gaming experience provided by EBTs. However, these terms do not reflect the legal classification of EBTs.
A Commitment to Compliance and Security
Goldrush Gaming Group ensures that all EBTs operate with full transparency and align with South African regulations. By working closely with local and national regulators, we maintain the highest standards of fairness, security, and responsible management.
