1. Know the bonus type
Match bonus, free spins, no deposit, cashback: each has different terms. A match bonus that wagers bonus plus deposit doubles the betting needed. See the types on our bonus page.
2. Price the wagering
Multiply bonus by wagering, then by the house edge. K 1,000 at 35x on a 96% RTP slot means K 35,000 of bets and about K 1,400 expected cost: the bonus loses K 400 on average. The same bonus at 20x costs K 800 and is worth about K 200.
3. Respect the max bet
Bonus terms cap each stake while wagering. One spin above the cap can void everything. Set your stake below it before you start.
4. Plan the withdrawal
Finish wagering before the expiry, then withdraw by a method the casino lists for payouts. Upload your ID early so the payout is not held.
5. Know the risks
- Your deposit is locked until wagering is done.
- Win caps can cut a large win.
- A new casino has no payout record.
If you would rather keep control of your money, skip the bonus on your first deposit. More on mistakes to avoid in our common mistakes guide.
