    Every offer on this page is fictional and chosen to make the arithmetic clear. It is a teaching model, not an operator's terms, and it simulates no wins, losses or withdrawable balance. You must be 21 or older to bet in most states. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem and wants help, call 1-800-GAMBLER.

    Quick check

    A $40 bonus with a 10x requirement on the bonus. What is the wagering target?

    $400 of qualifying turnover remains. Your bets count 25% toward it. How much must you stake in total?

    A $100 deposit with a $50 bonus, and a 10x requirement on deposit plus bonus. What is the target?

    1x rollover $100 5x rollover $500 10x rollover $1,000 20x rollover $2,000
    Example: total you must wager to unlock a $100 bonus at four rollover multiples

    What a wagering requirement is

    A wagering requirement, also called a play-through or rollover, is the amount you must bet before a bonus can turn into money you can withdraw. It is written as a multiplier. A $50 bonus with a 10x requirement means $500 of qualifying bets. The amount is turnover, not a deposit: you do not pay $500 into the account, you place bets worth $500 in total, and winnings and losses along the way change what is left in your balance.

    The basis makes the difference

    The multiplier applies to something, and offers differ on what. If it applies to the bonus only, $50 at 10x is $500. If it applies to the deposit plus the bonus, a $100 deposit with a $50 bonus at 10x is $1,500, three times as much for the same headline. Read which one an offer uses before you compare multipliers.

    Not every bet counts equally

    Some offers count only part of a stake toward the requirement, for example when a bet is below a minimum price or in an excluded market. If a $20 bet counts 10%, only $2 moves you toward the target, and reaching a $500 target with bets that count 10% takes $5,000 in stakes. At 0% nothing moves you at all. Read the terms for which bets count, because the explorer cannot know the rules of an offer you have not entered.

    Reaching the target does not guarantee a withdrawal

    The explorer calculates the requirement and nothing else. Real offers can add an expiry date, a maximum stake per bet, excluded markets, a cap on what you can withdraw, and rules about which funds you spend first. Meeting the target is one condition among several. To turn the terms of a real offer into a dollar value, use the bonus value calculator.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does a 10x requirement mean I must deposit ten times as much?

    No. It means you must place bets worth ten times the base amount. The requirement is turnover, not a new deposit.

    Why does the basis matter so much?

    Because the multiplier is applied to it. Deposit plus bonus is a larger base than the bonus alone, so the same multiplier asks for far more betting.

    What does it mean when only part of a bet counts?

    Only that share of the stake moves you toward the target. If 25% counts, you must stake four dollars for every dollar of progress.

    Are the offers here real?

    No. The amounts and shares are teaching values. No operator is named or implied.

    Does the explorer store anything?

    No. It runs in your browser, sends nothing and resets when you reload.
