To all members of the racing community, sponsors, partners, media and all other stakeholders,

TAB.co.za experienced a system outage on the 15th of March at 12:15 pm. This affected both tab.co.za and bookmakers who offer our tote pools on their sites.

The underlying cause of the outage has now been confirmed as a technical issue at our data center run by Microsoft. The issue did not affect our legacy betting site play.tabonline.co.za, which was re-activated.

After extensive collaboration with Microsoft the team recreated a new environment to reestablish tab.co.za and the bookmakers’ sites that offer our tote pools.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
