Wagering requirements, with the maths shown.
A worked example of how rollover, game contribution, maximum bets and expiry can change the real cost of a promotion.
A bonus headline is not its value. The withdrawal rules determine how much must be wagered and whether any balance can become cashable.
The basic formula
If a 100 bonus has a 30× bonus wagering requirement, the headline turnover is 3,000. If the requirement applies to deposit plus bonus, a 100 deposit and 100 bonus at 30× means 6,000.
A worked example
| Deposit | 100 |
|---|---|
| Bonus | 100 |
| Requirement | 30× bonus |
| Headline wagering | 3,000 |
| Slot contribution | 100% |
| Maximum bonus bet | 5 |
| Expiry | 7 days |
At the maximum allowed bet of 5, the player would need 600 qualifying wagers to complete 3,000—before accounting for wins, losses or excluded games.
Contribution rates
If a table game contributes 10%, a 10 wager adds only 1 toward the requirement. A game listed as 0% adds nothing. Contribution rules can materially change the time and risk involved.
Maximum bet rules
Exceeding a maximum bet while a bonus is active may void winnings. The limit may apply automatically or remain the player’s responsibility.
Other terms to check
- Eligible payment methods and games.
- Minimum odds for sportsbook promotions.
- Maximum convertible or withdrawable winnings.
- Country, account and currency restrictions.
- Whether real funds or bonus funds are used first.
One rule above every tactic
Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Set limits before you start, never chase losses, and stop if play no longer feels optional.
