Calculating Your Bonus
Let’s walk through a typical welcome bonus offer: a 100% match bonus up to $100 plus 50 free spins. You deposit $50. Your bonus is $50 (100% of $50, but not exceeding $100). Your total playing balance becomes $100 ($50 deposit + $50 bonus).
Now apply the wagering requirement. Suppose the terms state a 35x wagering requirement on the deposit + bonus. That means you must wager ($50 + $50) × 35 = $3,500 before you can withdraw any winnings from the bonus.
Assuming you play a slot with a 96% RTP (house edge 4%), the expected loss during wagering is 4% × $3,500 = $140. Since your total balance is only $100, the expected value of the bonus is negative. However, if you complete wagering, your expected cashout is ($3,500 × 0.96) = $3,360 in total wagers returned, but you only wagered $100 of your own money. That calculation is simplified; realistically, you would stop when reaching wagering or losing the balance.
To find the expected value of the bonus itself, use this formula: Expected Bonus Value = (Bonus Amount × (1 – (House Edge × Wagering Multiplier))) / Wagering Multiplier? Alternatively, a cleaner method: Expected loss = Wagering Requirement × House Edge. For our numbers: $3,500 × 0.04 = $140. Since your initial deposit was $50, the expected net loss is $140 – $50 = $90 (if you also lose the deposit). This shows the bonus has negative expected value unless you consider free spins.
For free spins, assume 50 spins at $0.20 per spin = $10 in wagering contribution. With 96% RTP, expected return from free spins is $10 × 0.96 = $9.60. The winnings from free spins are usually subject to the same wagering requirement (often 35x). So the $9.60 is added to your bonus balance and must be wagered 35x, increasing the effective wagering requirement.
