Bonuses offered by gambling operators can vary, but typical promotions grant players bonus funds or free spins to encourage them to use their platform. Bonuses are also designed to encourage players to continue betting using their own money when the bonus funds run out.

Wagering requirements refer to the total sum of wagers customers must place to clear a bonus or its winnings for withdrawal. For example, a customer who receives a $10 bonus with a 10x wagering requirement must place $100 worth of wagers before withdrawing the bonus or its winnings.
