How to Read Casino Wagering Requirements

A bonus can come with rules that determine whether winnings can be withdrawn. The most important rule is the wagering requirement: the amount you must stake before a bonus balance becomes withdrawable.

The terms to check

• Wagering multiple: the number applied to the bonus, deposit or both.
• Game contribution: different games may count at different rates, or not at all.
• Time limit: a bonus may expire before its requirement is completed.
• Maximum bet: betting above a stated limit can void a promotion.
• Maximum withdrawal: some offers cap the amount that can be cashed out.

Read the complete terms before depositing. If a rule is unclear, do not assume it works in your favour—ask the operator in writing or skip the offer.
