Silverstar Casino deposits: how credit is loaded in person

The land-based version of a deposit is a banknote and a printed ticket. This page shows exactly how it works on the Muldersdrift floor.

Silverstar Casino has no deposit page. Credit is loaded in person: banknotes go into the machine's bill validator, unused credit prints as a ticket-in ticket-out voucher, and tables are bought into with cash exchanged for chips by the dealer. Only persons 18 years and older may play.

Why the wording differs from an online casino

Search engines match the word 'deposit' to whatever a brand is closest to, which is how a page about a casino resort on the R28 ends up ranked for a banking term. At a physical venue nothing is deposited: money is exchanged for credit at the moment you decide to play, and what you do not use walks back out with you.

The mechanics have barely changed in years. A banknote goes in, the credit meter moves, and when you cash out the machine prints a ticket. That ticket is money in the same way a coin bucket used to be — keep it safe and take it to the desk, as explained on our cashing-out page.

The one number worth planning around is the one you set yourself. The floor runs Monday to Sunday, 24 hours, so there is no natural end to a session; decide the amount before the first note goes in.

Loading credit on a slot machine, step by step

  1. Pick a machine and check its denomination on the glass before sitting down.
  2. Insert your Tsogo Rewards card first if you want the play tracked.
  3. Feed banknotes into the bill validator; the credit meter updates as each note is accepted.
  4. Play at the stake you planned, not the stake the machine suggests.
  5. Press cash out to end the session — remaining credit prints as a ticket.
  6. Insert that ticket into the next machine, or take it to the cash desk for rands.

Gambling is for persons 18 years and older. The National Responsible Gambling Programme helpline is free on 0800 006 008.

Frequently asked questions

What is the minimum deposit at Silverstar Casino?
There is no published minimum, because there is no deposit system. You load the banknotes you intend to play, and the machine's denomination sets the pace.
Can I load credit with a bank card?
No. Machines take banknotes and tickets. Cards are used for the hotel, restaurants, the box office and the spa.
What happens to credit I do not use?
Press cash out and the machine prints a ticket. Insert it into another machine or exchange it for rands at the cash desk.
