Bonus
A casino’s added value to the player — bonus money, free spins or another perk, always with terms attached.
Also: bonus · offerWhat does this mean?
A bonus is a casino offer that gives the player extra value: bonus money, free spins, cashback or other perks. Every bonus comes with terms that determine its real value.
The most important terms are the wagering requirement, maximum withdrawal, validity period and the selection of eligible games. They're always worth reading before activating a bonus.
Quick facts
Example: a 100% welcome bonus up to €200 means that to a €200 deposit the casino adds €200 in bonus money — €400 of playing funds in total, subject to a wagering requirement.
How does a bonus work?
Activation
The bonus is activated on registration, deposit or by entering a bonus code.
Terms
The bonus is subject to a wagering requirement, a validity period and often a maximum bet limit.
Wagering
The bonus must be played through the required number of times before winnings can be withdrawn.
Withdrawal
Once the terms are met, the bonus win becomes real money that can be withdrawn.
Frequently asked questions
Is a bonus always worth it?
Not always. A high wagering requirement or a low maximum withdrawal can make a bonus's real value small. Read the terms before accepting.
Can you decline a bonus?
Yes. At most casinos you can leave a bonus unactivated or cancel it later if you prefer to play without terms.
