Welcome Bonus

Best Betting sites with Welcome Bonus in South Africa 

A welcome bonus is given out when you register a new account with a betting company. This is the single biggest attraction for players to join a betting site.

The two most popular types of welcome bonuses are the first deposit match bonus and the no deposit welcome bonus. The first type of bonus is when the betting site will match your first deposit up to a maximum amount. E.g. R2 000. The second type is when the betting site will credit you with a free bet for simply registering on the site. This is also called a Sign-Up Bonus as no deposit is required.
