    A wagering requirement is the amount you must stake before bonus money can be withdrawn. Enter the terms from the offer page to see the real figure.

    The number before the x, e.g. 10 for 10x

    Slots are usually 100%, table games often 10%

    Wagering applies to

    Result

    Total to stake
    £500
    Bets needed
    500

    To release £50 of bonus money you need to stake £500 in total. At £1 a bet that is 500 bets.

    How it works

    Multiply the amount the requirement applies to by the wagering multiple. For 35x on a £100 bonus that is £3,500. If the terms say deposit plus bonus, add the deposit first: 35x on £200 is £7,000.

    Game contribution changes the real total. If a game counts 10%, only 10p of each £1 staked counts, so you have to stake ten times as much on that game.

    Divide the turnover by your stake per bet to get the number of bets. More bets means more time exposed to the house edge.

    Questions

    What does 35x wagering mean?
    You must stake 35 times the amount the requirement applies to before bonus funds can be withdrawn. On a £100 bonus that is £3,500 in total bets, not £3,500 in losses.
    What is the difference between bonus and deposit plus bonus wagering?
    Bonus-only wagering multiplies just the bonus. Deposit plus bonus wagering multiplies both, so the same 35x on a £100 deposit and £100 bonus doubles the turnover from £3,500 to £7,000.
    What is game contribution?
    The share of each bet that counts toward wagering. Slots usually count 100%. Table games and live casino often count 10% or 0%. The terms of each offer list the rates.
    Does a bigger stake clear wagering faster?
    It takes fewer bets, but the total staked is the same, and so is the average cost. Most offers also set a maximum bet while a bonus is active, and breaking it can void the bonus.
    Is there a limit on wagering in Great Britain?
    Yes. Since 19 January 2026, UK Gambling Commission licensed operators cannot set wagering above 10x on a bonus, and one offer can no longer mix products such as betting and casino. Offers from outside Great Britain can still ask for 35x or more, which is why the calculator accepts any multiple.
