From mid-September to early November, World Sports Betting is running a TaDa Gaming Halloween tournament where every qualifying win stacks points on a live leaderboard, and the top of that board shares more than R1.5 million.

Trick or TaDa at a glance

Halloween promos usually last a weekend and vanish. This one does not. World Sports Betting has lined up a seven-week TaDa campaign that starts at 03:00 on 16 September 2026 and only wraps up at 03:00 on 4 November. That window covers the build-up, Halloween night itself, and a few days after the costumes come off.

If you already play TaDa titles on WSB, you are in the moment you log in and spin one of the listed games. There is no extra application.

How the points actually work

The scoring is simple once you ignore the Halloween dressing. This is an accumulated-win tournament. Each qualifying win on a promotional TaDa game adds to your score for that round, and those totals feed the daily leaderboard.

You are not being ranked on turnover alone. A quieter session that actually pays can outrank a long grind that does not. That is the part most players miss on the first night.

A few things to keep in front of you while you play:

Open the promo card for that specific game before you settle on a title for the evening.
Confirm whether you are on the double-points or single-points list.
If TaDa or WSB puts out a system announcement, that announcement takes precedence over anything you read earlier.
Playing a single-points game is not a waste — you still score — but you leave points on the table if a double-points title was open.

Item cards and the backpack

TaDa also drops item cards into the mix. They sit in your backpack; they are time-limited, and they do not guarantee a prize.

If a card appears, tap the backpack image and use it before it expires.
Cards are tied to the corresponding game, so use the right card on the right title.
Leaving cards to pile up is the easiest way to waste a mechanic that was meant to help you.
After the tournament closes, event rewards are sent to the same backpack automatically within 12 hours.

How the leaderboard moves

The board is not a once-a-day screenshot. Rankings refresh every 15 minutes, which is fast enough to watch positions shift while you are still in a session.

Joining before the 03:00 start

If you do not have a WSB account yet, the start date is close enough that registration should happen before 03:00 on 16 September, not after the first leaderboard has already moved.

New players who enter the WSB promo code NEWBONUS during sign-up can take the first-deposit match and put that extra balance on the same TaDa games that score tournament points. It is not free tournament credit. It is a larger starting stack for a promo that runs for almost two months.

A practical way to play the seven weeks

A few habits help more than any Halloween headline:

Check the participating-game list inside the WSB client, not from memory.
Favour the double-points titles when they are available.
Watch the 15-minute refresh if you are chasing a daily cut-off.
Use item cards the day they land.
Treat the R1.5 million figure as a pool, not a personal target. Most of the board will share smaller slices. That is how these TaDa leaderboards are built.
