Cape Town - Two of the biggest casinos in the Western Cape want to be exempt from paying tax on more than R127million of free play they give their most loyal patrons, arguing it should not be calculated as revenue. Sun International’s GrandWest Casino and Entertainment World and Golden Valley Casino in Worcester have filed papers in the high court to force the Western Cape Gambling Board and the provincial minister of finance to deduct the R127m from their more than R2.
“Free play is not offered to all the players frequenting their gambling establishments. It is offered only to their qualifying loyalty programme customers. It constitutes a reward for a player’s loyalty.The provincial government, in its argument, said after the money is loaded on to the card with the additional cash, and once played, it constitutes the amount deducted from the player’s slot account.
“This is entirely irrelevant for the purposes of the computation of the gambling tax payable by the applicants.”
