Gbets Casino Review
Jump to:
Introduction
Gbets is part of the Goldrush Gaming Group, an organisation with more than 20 years of experience that is one of the leaders in South African gambling. The site was launched in 2014, combining sports betting with live casino action. Users can enjoy a specially curated selection of live dealer games, as well as regular (largely sports-based) promotions and tournaments among other highlights.
New players can claim a bonus using the NEWBONUS Gbets promo code.
Software
The site is powered by a small but well-chosen selection of software providers:
- Evolution Gaming
- Ezugi
- BETCONSTRUCT
- VISION CASINO
- Lotto Instant Win
Games
Unusually for an online casino, Gbets does not offer online slots. Instead, there is a variety of high-quality live casino games for players to choose from. Popular titles include:
- Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt Live
- Craps Live
- Blackjack First Person
- Asian Baccarat
- Mega Ball First Person
- Live Poker
- Dream Catcher First Person
- Dragon Tiger First Person
- Football Studio First Person
- Blast
This approach does mean that along with the typical classic casino games such as roulette, baccarat, blackjack, and poker, you will also find more card and dice games including two versions of live Craps, and multiple Keno games. There are also skills games, such as Blast, Talisman, Ogwil, and Zonk.
Betgames TV
Alongside the live games, the online casino offers a selection of Betgames TV where you are presented with a live dealer, broadcast from a studio in real-time and you just need to log in to place a bet.
Security & Licenses
Gbets is owned and operated by Dynamex (PTY) Ltd and is licensed by the Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board. The site integrates high-level 2048-bit SSL Certificates as an extra layer of security.
Mobile Apps
There is no downloadable app for either iOS or Android at the time of writing. However, Gbets does provide a fully mobile-optimised website that is fully compatible with most mobile and tablet devices to create a seamless betting and gaming experience.

Conclusion
Gbets Casino benefits from the excellent reputation of the Goldrush Gaming Group as well as a generous welcome package to attract new players. However, the site also takes care of its existing members, with sports-based promotions, lots of payment options, and multiple ways to get in touch with the customer support team. The focus is clearly sports, as evidenced by the lack of VIP club or casino promotions, and the absence of any slots could be a deal-breaker for many players.
