Deposit Bonus Wagering Explained
Wagering is the turnover you must bet before bonus funds become withdrawable. It is the rule that turns a generous-looking match into something you have to work through, and game weighting decides how fast you get there.
Turnover and game weighting
CasinOnline applies a standard 30x wagering requirement, so a R500 bonus means R15,000 in bets before you can withdraw. Game weighting changes how quickly that clears: slots typically count around 100%, while table and live games count far less, so R100 staked on a low-weighted game may move the requirement by only a few rand. Picking high-weighted games is the difference between clearing wagering and grinding endlessly. The full mechanics are in the wagering requirements guide.
Caps and time limits
Even after clearing wagering, payouts are limited. Maximum withdrawal from a bonus is 5x the bonus, capped at R50,000, so a large match does not mean a large cashout. Bonuses also carry a time limit, and any wagering not completed before it expires forfeits the bonus and its winnings. No withdrawal is allowed while an active bonus is in the bonus wallet, and FICA must be completed before your first withdrawal.

Frequently asked questions
How much do I need to bet to clear a deposit bonus?
At 30x, multiply the bonus by 30. A R500 bonus needs R15,000 in qualifying bets. Game weighting means low-weighted games contribute less per rand staked, so the real number of spins or hands can be higher.
What is the most I can win from a deposit bonus?
Maximum withdrawal from a bonus is 5x the bonus, capped at R50,000. Anything above that cap is not paid out, so factor it in before chasing a very large match. Check the current cap on the promotions page.
