About Chance · South Africa

How Chance reviews bookmakers

Our reviews use published bookmaker information. Here’s what we check, how offers are handled and where the limits of the research are.

18+ · Some links earn us commission. How this works. Based on published information. How we compare.

What we review

We read bookmaker websites, help pages and official app listings, alongside offer information supplied through commercial partners. We compare what those sources say about the product and its conditions.

We haven’t opened funded accounts, placed bets or measured withdrawals for these reviews. Published processing times are the bookmaker’s statements, not results from our own tests.

Our comparison checklist

  • Sports: Competitions, markets and settlement rules.
  • Apps: Official download options and device information.
  • Payments: Methods, limits, fees and stated processing times.
  • Offers: Promo codes, qualifying deposits, wagering and expiry dates.
  • Account controls: Verification, limits, breaks and self-exclusion.
  • Licensing: The company and regulator named in the bookmaker’s material.

Missing or conflicting information

When two bookmaker pages disagree, we explain the difference. When a condition is missing, we say which detail needs confirming rather than estimating it.

The source-check date records when the information was reviewed. A copy edit can change the page’s updated date without representing a fresh bookmaker check.

Licence details in a review are not independent certification. Our licence guide explains how to check the company, website and activity with the relevant provincial board.

Offers and promo codes

We display a code when it is supplied for that offer. If it isn’t confirmed, the page says “Code not confirmed”. “No code needed” is used only where the offer information explicitly says a code is optional or unnecessary.

We haven't claimed these offers ourselves. The bookmaker’s current conditions determine whether a customer qualifies, and our summaries flag any missing conditions.

Where bookmaker checks remain incomplete, we withhold offers, codes and signup links. A missing or inaccessible page does not establish that the bookmaker is unlicensed.

Images and bylines

App images identify their published source. They aren’t screenshots from a Chance betting account, and any pictured prices or promotions may be out of date.

Chance editorial desk is the site’s editorial byline. It doesn’t identify an individual tester or independent certification body.

Directory order and commercial links

The directory follows an editorial order, not a scored ranking. Duplicate or renamed brands aren’t counted twice, and we don’t use customer-vote totals as our own ratings.

Some links earn commission. Read the commercial disclosure or return to the bookmaker comparison.
