Registering for Tsogo Rewards

Opening an account at Emerald Casino connects you to the Tsogo Rewards program. From your first visit, staff can help complete your registration at reception or on the gaming floor. There is no drawn-out paperwork, but please allow five to ten minutes so everything can be completed accurately. Remember that a valid ID is always needed - locals should bring a green ID book or smart ID card, while visitors from abroad must have a valid stamped passport. We take photocopies as part of standard compliance.

Once you’re at the desk, we’ll ask for a full legal name, home address, email, phone number, and date of birth. Only guests 18 and over can create a gaming account per the law in South Africa, and yes, we check that too. A temporary membership card is issued right away, so you don’t need to wait to collect early points. The permanent card comes later, usually in two to three weeks.

How to Earn and Use Points

Each time you play, just slot your Tsogo card into the reader on any machine. Your name then pops up right on the display, so you know tracking’s on. Remove the card, and your points pause until it’s back in place. For tables - blackjack, roulette, poker - it works differently: hand the card over to a supervisor at the start. They log the session’s wagers and monitor your average bets. Points tally up based on time and the size of the action.

Slots generally give one point for every ZAR 10 you play. Table action needs the supervisor to check and validate your play. If you’re in a tournament, register with your Tsogo card before it begins. To see your current balance, check at any rewards kiosk dotted around the gaming floor, or just ask at the desk.

Progressing through Tsogo tiers depends on how many points you collect in the year. Higher tiers get you access to things like fast-track check-in, better room options, food credits, or event invites. At the end of every year, we reset statuses, so keep playing to hold your level.

Managing Your Profile and Account Settings

Need to change your contact information or preferences? Just stop by our rewards desk and bring your card and ID. We update details like address, email, communication method, or even the way you want us to notify you - SMS, email, or post. If you’d rather skip promotional messages, you still keep your benefits and point status.

Should online account access become available on the Tsogo Sun site, you would set up a separate login and password. Security matters - password requirements may vary based on system updates. Enhanced login security features may be introduced over time.

If something changes, like you move or swap your phone number, please update your profile promptly. Outdated accounts may get locked until you confirm the details again.

Verification and Security Measures

At registration, our staff check your ID in person. For larger wins or transactions that require additional review, we conduct more in-depth verification - this is all to stay compliant with the law and protect your account. If your membership card ever goes missing, let us know straight away. That way, no one else can spend your points. We’ll deactivate the old card and issue a new one as soon as you confirm who you are.

Each card links to a unique account number - that’s designed for your safety.

Gaming Floor and Promotions

With slots and table positions including poker, baccarat, blackjack, and roulette, our floor is always active. Tsogo Rewards cards are accepted everywhere, although the earning rate might change depending on the game type. The difference comes down to house edge and game mechanics.

Each active account is automatically entered into eligible casino promotions. Just use your card during promotional periods - no minimum betting needed in most cases.

Collect prizes at the rewards desk when contacted. Confirm who you are, bring your ID, and tax documentation is required for larger wins. Prizes have claim deadlines - keep an eye on SMS or email so nothing goes missed.

Resort Membership Perks

Cards don’t stop at the casino. Being a member means likely discounts and extras across our hotel, pools, spa, bowling, mini-golf, and animal park. Book rooms directly with us for member rates and complimentary upgrades if your tier qualifies.

You earn Tsogo points not only through slots and tables but from dining, booking activities, or spa visits. The more you enjoy the property, the more you earn.

Standard rooms include air-conditioning, a flat TV, kettle, plus a private bath. Most check-ins open at 14:00 through to nearly midnight; for early risers, check-out starts at 4am.

Responsible Gaming Support

We support safe play and back the National Problem Gambling Helpline, 0800 006 008. Voluntary exclusions are available: you can block yourself from accessing casino gaming if you need a break, while still enjoying hotel and resort facilities. You can also set personal gaming limits by talking to management.

If you wish to close your account, let us know in person with your ID and card. Redeem any points first, or they’ll be lost according to our program terms. Any account can be suspended or closed if we find policy violations or anything suspicious.
