Pros, cons and verdict
Choose Thunderbolt for RTG slots and jackpots if you pay in Bitcoin, which its banking page says it pays out instantly once your account is verified.
Look elsewhere if you want Gates of Olympus, Aviator, 777 Strike, live tables or quick payouts by EFT.
If you claim the R150 no deposit coupon, do it within 30 days of opening the account, and expect 60x wagering with at most R750 cashed out.
Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ether and Cash to Code are on no other brand's list.
