About The Show
Deal or No Deal South Africa is a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime game of chance where contestants select one of twenty sealed boxes. Each box contains a cash amount, ranging from R1 to R250,000.
As the game unfolds, and as the cash values of the boxes are revealed, the contestant is offered an amount in exchange for their box by the show’s Banker.
Round after round, Katlego Maboe, the show host, will ask the contestant to decide whether to take the Banker’s deal or not; thus, creating a rapture of enthusiastic encouragement and nail-biting nerves for both contestants and viewers.
This is the second South African version of Deal or No Deal. The first version aired for two seasons on M-Net, in the years 2007 and 2008.
Deal or No Deal South Africa is proudly sponsored by Lottostar.
Please remember that the cast of Deal or No Deal South Africa is made up of the host, the anonymous Banker, and the contestants.

- R50
- R100
- R250
- R500

With the help of lights, one of the 20 contestants is selected to play the Deal or No Deal game. With his or her cash box in hand, the contestant, in this case now referred to as the finalist then joins the presenter, Katlego Maboe, at the big table and gets into the hot seat.
The finalist’s box stays sealed, as do the remaining 19 boxes that are held by the other contestants.
Who is holding the jackpot? Does the finalist’s box contain a stingy sum or a big fortune? Nobody knows.
One by one, the finalist chooses three boxes, revealing cheques of different values. As each box is opened and its value removed from the money tree board, the likelihood of the finalist having a high-valued cheque in his own box decreases or increases.
An unseen opponent, the Banker, enters the game by making phone calls with the show presenter offering the playing contestant (finalist) an amount of money in exchange for the cash box. Does the finalist strike a deal with the Banker, or continue playing?
The playing contestant (finalist) knows that as long as the big cash boxes of R250,000, R150,000, R100,000, R50,000, R40,000, R30,000, R20,000, and R10,000 haven’t been opened, the Banker’s offers will only get higher and higher.
As the game carries on, fewer boxes remain and more offers are made by the Banker.
What if the jackpot box is accidentally opened? In that case, the Banker’s offer drops dramatically.
But what if the jackpot is in the contestant’s own box? Is the contestant bold enough to go all the way and find out, or do they play it safe and make a deal?
Can You Beat The Banker and Win up to R250 000 in Cash?
