Read the multiplier, not the headline

A 200% bonus with 50× wagering is worse than a 100% bonus with 20×. The headline is marketing; the multiplier, the time limit and the cashout cap decide what the offer is worth. See the full terms for each offer on the bonuses page.

The time limit does the damage

Most offers expire in 14 days. The “spins per day” figure above is the honest test: if it is more than a few hundred, you are not clearing that bonus around a normal week.

Expected cost

Turnover always costs something. At 96% RTP every 100 wagered returns 96 on average, so the house edge quietly eats into the bonus while you clear it. The lower the wagering, the less it costs you.

FAQ

What does 35x wagering mean?

You must place bets totalling 35 times the bonus before the balance becomes withdrawable. On a 100 bonus that is 3,500 in turnover.

Does the wagering apply to the deposit too?

It depends on the offer. At Vavada the multiplier applies to the bonus amount only, which is lighter than the bonus-plus-deposit terms some casinos use.

What is the expected cost figure?

Turnover multiplied by the house edge. Wagering 3,500 on a 96% RTP slot costs about 140 on average — so a bonus is only worth taking when it is bigger than the cost of clearing it.
