Online casinos aggressively market their deposit bonuses, making it seem like they are handing out free money.
The reality is that these promotional funds are heavily restricted by a mechanism called a playthrough requirement.
How the Bonus Catch Actually Works
A wagering requirement is a multiplier that dictates exactly how much money you must bet before you can withdraw.
For example, if you receive a $100 bonus with a 30x requirement, you must place $3,000 worth of bets.
The goal of the casino is for you to lose the bonus money before hitting the targetAlways check if the multiplier applies only to the bonus, or the deposit + bonus combinedUnderstanding this math is crucial to determining if an offer is actually worth taking
Not All Casino Games Count Equally
To make things even more complicated, not every game on the platform contributes 100% towards the requirement.
Typically, video slots contribute 100%, meaning every dollar spent removes a dollar from your target.
