Deposit Bonus

A bonus awarded when a player makes a qualifying deposit, often matching a percentage of the amount.

Bonuses & Promotions

A deposit bonus is a promotional offer where the casino adds extra funds to your account when you make a qualifying deposit. It is the most common type of online casino promotion.

How It Works

A typical offer might be ‘100% up to £200,’ meaning the casino matches your deposit pound for pound up to a £200 maximum. Some welcome packages spread the bonus across your first three or four deposits.

Key Terms to Check

Pay attention to the wagering requirement (how many times you must play through the bonus), the game weighting (slots usually contribute 100%, table games much less), and the time limit to clear the bonus.
