Is that bonus worth it after the wagering, what do its terms really say, and what does a session cost at the game's RTP? Three tools in one place.
Averages only: real sessions swing above and below, and most bonus terms add max-bet, time limits and excluded games. Read Wagering requirements explained for worked examples. This is maths, not advice; 18+.
Multiply the amount the wagering applies to (bonus, or bonus plus deposit) by the multiplier, then divide by the game contribution. 35× on a 100 bonus at 100% contribution = 3,500 in bets.
Total bets × house edge. At 96.51% RTP the house edge is 3.49%, so 3,500 in bets costs about 122.15 on average.
When the bonus amount is bigger than the expected loss from the required wagering. Low wagering, high-RTP games and 100% contribution all help.
Five numbers: the wagering requirement (and whether it applies to the bonus only or deposit plus bonus), the maximum bet while the bonus is active, the maximum cashout, the expiry time, and which games count. Then look for wording such as "sole discretion" that lets the casino void winnings.
It depends on what it applies to. 35x on the bonus only is common; 35x on deposit plus bonus can double the betting you must do (with a 100% match). Put the numbers in our wagering calculator to see the expected cost.

RTP is a long-run average over millions of rounds. One session can end far above or below the expected loss, especially on high-volatility slots. See RTP vs volatility explained. 18+.
Expected loss = total amount bet × (100% − RTP). 1,000 spins at 1 on a 96% slot means 1,000 bet and about 40 expected loss.
No. It means you lose less on average over a very long time. Any single session can still lose everything you bring.
