Bonus confusion

[DeAnna211200]

I am a noob so bare with me. I play only slots and prefer jackpot slots. What does this mean?
****All bonuses hold 30x slots, keno or scratchcard playthrough and no max cash outs. $100 free chip holds $500 max cashout. ****

Also, how do they determine what money is being played with the bonus money...is that amount played off first til you get to your non-bonus cash? what about your winnings along the way..is winnings considered bonus cash when it's won with bonus cash? yeah i am totally confused on how all this works. I am playing at slotocash.

all bonuses hold 30x playthrough
- this refers to bonuses received with a deposit.
- you have to wager 30x bonus amount for the bonus to be converted into cash
- there is no max cashout

$100 free chip holds $500 max cashout.
- this is a free chip given to you by the casino without a deposit
- you still have to wager it 30x but your max cashout will be 500$ since you never deposited for this bonus

is that amount played off first til you get to your non-bonus cash?
- in general you play first with your real money and then with your bonus money
- all winnings when a bonus is active are considered bonus winnings until wagering is completed

Hope this helps

My advice to you would be to only accept bonuses from casinos that do not tie in your real cash -- ie Betat and Slotty Vegas. I have had winnings all too often that I could not withdraw as most casinos will tie in your real cash until you fulfill the requirements.

good advice Barbara but please note that, unfortunately, being in the US she only has the likes of Slotocash, Jackpot Capital, 3Dice, Bodog, Inetbet etc. available. And they all have the same rules for bonuses that they will tie in your cash until wagering is completed.

What does tie into your cash mean? does this mean i can not make a withdrawal until all bonuses are spent?

When you accept a bonus on top of your deposit your cash will be tied in until you have done the requested wagering for the bonus (in your case above it was 30 x bonus amount). Only then will you be able to withdraw your deposit and potential winnings.

You can always forfeit an unfinished bonus but then your winnings will be forfeited as well and your balance will be returned to your deposit amount.

Not totally correct...

The WR at Sloto is (Deposit+Bonus) x30.
Also, all their bonuses are Phantom (bonus removed on cash-out).
I have repeatedly tried to get them to offer bonus to match the more generous RTG casinos I list (lower WR and Cashable) - but no joy at the moment...
It's actually better to take their Tables bonus & play slots than take their Slots bonus! (Because the WR is lower).

In the case of RTG casinos, I'm pretty sure there is no distinction between real and bonus funds - they are lumped in together.
Makes no difference anyway, as you always have to complete the FULL WR before you can cash-out.

Sorry KK, i did not double check on the Sloto site, only took the text from her post. 30x D+B is pretty nasty.
