Free Spins

Bonus spins on a slot machine awarded without requiring an additional wager.

Slots & Video Poker

Free spins are complimentary slot spins that cost the player nothing. They can be awarded as part of a casino promotion, triggered by in-game scatter symbols, or included in a welcome bonus package.

Types of Free Spins

Promotional free spins are given by the casino (often on registration or deposit) and usually come with wagering requirements. In-game free spins are triggered during play and pay out at your current bet level with no extra conditions.

Maximising Free Spins Value

Check which games the free spins are valid on, the wagering requirements attached, the maximum win cap, and whether there is a time limit to use them. Low wagering or no-wagering free spins offer the best real value.
