Emperors Palace Casino Slots
Slot Machines and Features
Our casino floor operates day and night, with over 1 600 slot machines set up right across our Emperors Palace property. On the Main Casino floor there are over 1 600 slot machines, in continuous operation. Bets have denominations ranging from 1c to R500 a spin. Classic reels, video setups, and rows of progressive jackpots sit side by side. Popular progressive slot titles include The Lion’s Share, Lightning Link and other games.
Progressive slots stand out in our lineup. Their jackpots build as more players bet, and the current prize numbers are right there on screens above or on the machines themselves. Minimum bets sometimes are needed for a progressive shot, and over the years, we’ve seen it make a difference - always check before playing.
We sort machines by coin size and slot style. Our attendants move through the aisles all hours, helping out with payouts or resolving small glitches the second they pop up. For new visitors, casino staff are available throughout the gaming floor to provide assistance with slot machines, payouts, and guidance on responsible play.
Emperors Palace is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and players have access to over 1 600 slot machines alongside 69 table games. From 1c to R500, Emperors Palace offers the widest range of slot denominations to suit every style of play.
Bet Ranges and Denominations
| Denomination | Bet Range | Machine Type |
|---|---|---|
| 1c - 5c | R0.20 - R2.50 | Multi-line video slots |
| 10c - 25c | R1.00 - R10.00 | Standard video slots |
| R1 - R5 | R5.00 - R50.00 | Premium video slots |
| R10 - R100 | R10.00 - R100.00 | High-limit slots |
High-limit play is set up separately, with more comfortable chairs and personal drinks brought over. Nearly every video slot allows payline and line-bet tweaks to fit your style. Each screen shows the paytable: symbols, bonus rules, jackpot details. Usually takes just a glance to get your bearings.
Winners Circle Card and Cashless Play
Our Winners Circle loyalty programme reduces the need for pocket change and paper tickets. You load money on your card, either through our app or at the rewards desk. Tap your card into a machine - funds show up right on the screen.
Getting started isn’t complicated: Download our app, register your mobile and email, upload your ID, link your bank or card for easy top-ups, and pick up your plastic card at the rewards desk. Slide it in any slot and your credits are ready to play.
Winners Circle keeps automatic track of what you wager. Points update in the app by the next day - spend them on meals, room nights, and more. Credits not used just sit on your card until your next visit, and all your game history piles up neatly in the app, ready to check any time.
Progressive Jackpots on Site
Progressives at our casino tie into shared prize pools. Your wager pushes up the total until someone lands the win. Here’s a quick view of some key games on our floor:
The Lion’s Share: Features multiple jackpot levels with bonus wheel to trigger. Lightning Link: Fill the entire grid and the Grand Jackpot drops.
Big jackpot wins launch a celebration: flashing screens, music, and a staff member on hand to confirm the payout. Sometimes, larger prizes mean a little extra paperwork for taxes and an ID check before you get paid.
Casino Layout and Access
Our Main Casino’s heart is packed with over 1 600 slots, all grouped by coin size and game type. Big, clear signs mark areas for progressives and high-limit play. Players won’t get lost - our layout has generous aisles and direct sightlines.
Slots with higher limits sit in a reserved zone, and typically only Winners Circle members at Silver tier and up can join there Friday and Saturday nights. Traditional three-reelers are near the sports bar, with multi-game terminals all along the casino perimeter.
You’ll spot bathrooms, ATMs, and change points all over. Free soft drinks and coffee keep regular players refreshed, and cocktails arrive evenings for those who want something a little extra.
Slot Machines and Progressive Jackpots

All machines are sorted by coin size and style, making it easy to find your preferred games. Progressive jackpots display current prize amounts directly on machine screens, with some requiring minimum bets for jackpot eligibility.

Payouts, Vouchers, and Cashing Out
Slot winnings add up as credits on your screen. When you’re finished, hit the cash out button - a voucher prints instantly. Use that voucher at the cashier desk or any self-service machine to turn your credits into cash. Vouchers stay valid for 180 days, after which a quick visit to the cage with your ID is needed to unlock them again.
Wins of R25,000 or higher can’t be paid directly by the machine. An attendant comes by, checks your win, and walks you to the cashier for tax paperwork and ID confirmation. Every spin and win with your Winners Circle card is logged for points, so there’s nothing to remember or claim later.
Responsible Gaming
We always pay special attention to gaming safety and player wellbeing. Set deposit caps, time alerts, and even self-exclusion right in your Winners Circle account. As soon as your card is in a slot, your chosen limits or reminders turn on.
Time alerts can pop up from 30 minutes to 4 hours so you see how long you’ve played. Machines don’t stop or force you out. They only gently remind you of your time.
Self-exclusion choices: one day, a week, a month, or forever. While excluded, your card won’t start any casino device. Taking off an exclusion takes an in-person visit and some wait.
Our support line runs every day and night. Call 0800 006 008 to speak confidentially with a trained local counselor. Helpline details and anonymous checks are always available across the gaming floor.
Only those 18 and up will make it through the door. Security checks ID as you arrive and makes spot checks on the floor through the day.
Winners Circle Loyalty and Rewards
Every R10 you spend can earn 1 point on your loyalty account. These points are usually visible in your app in less than 24 hours. Status tiers change as points add up during the year, and more perks become available:
Blue: entry-level tier with standard points benefits Silver (5,000 - 19,999): 10 percent points bonus, shorter queues Gold (20,000 - 49,999): 25 percent points bonus, free drinks at the slots Platinum (50,000+): 50 percent bonus, dedicated host, access to exclusive zones
Every year, your level resets on your anniversary with us. Extra multipliers apply only to base points from slots. You can swap points for meals, hotel upgrades, spa access, or shopping, often just by booking on the app or stopping by the desk. Any break in activity longer than 12 months makes points expire, but a single play or reward resets that period.
Location, Hours, and Local Services
Our resort sits at 64 Jones Road, Kempton Park, Johannesburg, Gauteng 1609. The Main Casino is open 24 hours, every day of the week. Our smaller satellite areas start up by midday on weekdays.
We have four hotels from three-star basics to true five-star comfort, along with a handful of restaurants, spas, cinema halls, and conference rooms. If you’re staying in one of our hotels, the casino connects directly inside, so you’re never out in the weather.
Plenty of parking circles the property, and valet runs in the evenings for Winners Circle members. Shuttle transport connects the resort with nearby parts of Gauteng on a set timetable.
For questions or help, dial +27 11 928 1000. The rewards desk is open daily from 9 am to 9 pm for card help, reward redemptions, and tier upgrades.
Regulation and Player Safety
Every slot at Emperors Palace is licensed by the Gauteng Gambling Board. Our operations are subject to random inspections, with machines checked for fair returns and secure play. Results of every machine’s theoretical return-to-player (RTP) are on the screen menu, ranging from 85 to 96 percent depending on game and maker. These figures show average payouts over millions of spins, not for every single session.
The Gambling Board can inspect any time with no notice. If a machine fails a test, it’s off the floor until checked and fixed.
All casino guests must be at least 18 years old, with ID checks every day. If you think a slot machine didn’t work right, talk to an attendant before you leave - surveillance tracks the entire casino and helps close any disputes quickly.
