Age Restriction Policy (18+)

The Legal Age for Gambling in South Africa

In South Africa, the legal minimum age for all forms of gambling — including online casino gaming — is 18 years old. This is mandated by the National Gambling Act and its associated regulations.

It is a criminal offence for anyone under the age of 18 to participate in gambling activities in South Africa, and it is equally illegal for any operator or affiliate to knowingly allow underage individuals to gamble.

Our Commitment to Age Verification

We take the protection of minors extremely seriously. YesPlay implements robust age verification procedures as part of the registration process. All new players are required to:

• Confirm their date of birth during registration
• Provide valid identification documents (South African ID or passport) for KYC verification
• Complete identity verification before making withdrawals

Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be immediately suspended and all funds returned to the depositing account. No winnings will be paid to underage players.

Protecting Your Children

If you share a device with children, we strongly recommend taking steps to prevent them from accessing gambling websites. You can do this by:

• Using parental control software to block gambling websites
• Using private browsing and not saving passwords in your browser
• Logging out of all gambling accounts after each session
• Having open conversations with your children about the risks of gambling
