Bonuses and Free Spins
0 myth checks

A bonus looks like free money, but every offer comes with rules that decide whether you can ever withdraw it. The most important one is the wagering requirement: how many times you must stake the bonus (or your winnings from free spins) before they become cash.
How do wagering requirements work?
A ₦10,000 bonus with 35x wagering means ₦350,000 in total stakes before it can be withdrawn. At a 96% RTP, the house edge takes a share of every one of those stakes, so a high multiple eats most of the bonus on average.
What else is in the terms?
A maximum bet while the bonus is active, a time limit, games that count less (or not at all) towards wagering, and sometimes a cap on what you can win from it. Break one rule and the casino can void the bonus.
Are free spins worth it?
Often, if the wagering on the winnings is low and the spins are on a decent RTP game. Check the stake per spin, the game, and what happens to the winnings.
