Friendly wagering — typical industry standard.

Calculation assumes flat betting and uses expected-value math based on RTP. Real results vary — variance can be brutal on high-volatility pokies. Always gamble responsibly. 18+ only. Help: 1800 858 858.

How to read the result

  • < 35× — friendly, claim away
  • 35-50× — standard, worth it for big match bonuses
  • 50-70× — tough, only if you're playing pokies you'd play anyway
  • 70×+ — predatory, skip unless the bonus is enormous
  • If the wagering applies to (Deposit + Bonus), the play-through is roughly 2× what it would be for bonus-only — always check this line in the T&Cs
  • Game weighting < 100% means table games barely count toward clearing the bonus — you'll never finish on roulette alone
