Wagering requirements
Wagering requirements are something you are going to get aware of once you start using casino bonuses. Wagering requirements are almost always included in the terms and conditions when you claim a bonus. It’s the most common limitation that casinos uses for all type of casino bonuses. To avoid bonus abuse casinos are using wagering requirements to make it harder for players to just cash out the bonus. Instead you have to wager your bonus amount a certain amount of times before you are able to withdrawal the money. Wagering requirements can vary depending on which casino you play at. But most online casinos have wagering requirements between 20x and 50x. This is the amount of times that you have to play through the bonus money in order to turn the bonus in to real cash. There is a few bonuses that can come without wagering requirements. These bonuses are often called things such as cash bonus, real cash, cash spins or real spins.
Wagering requirements or rollover requirements often have different game weightings. This means that different games contribute to the wagering requirements differently. For example slots usually contribute with 100% to the wagering requirements while Video Poker only contribute with 25%. That’s why it’s best for you to play on slots while playing through the bonus. Both winning bets and losing bets are counted towards the wagering requirements. So all spins that you make will make you come closer to turning the bonus money into real cash.
Bonus example:
If you get a bonus of C$10 with wagering requirements of 20x you need to wager a total of C$200 before you are able to cash out the bonus money.
