Hey everyone,
I'm in the process of of trying to develop a system to reasonably rate the quality of a sign-up bonus. What I'm trying to do is devise an out of 10 rating for a bonus based on the type of bonus (cashable, sticky, post wager etc), % match and wagering requirement.
The conclusions I've drawn so far is that ultimately you require a different rating for different types of games given the vast difference to wagering requirement that game selection does make.
So here's my question - what game categories should be included and what do you feel is a good, reasonable and bad wagering requirement for each?
At the moment I'm swaying towards having a separate rating for Slots, Blackjack and Video Poker. Are their other game categories that would be useful? If so what?
When it comes to wagering requirements, for each category what is reasonable? Being realistic of course - there are loads of people who would love to see the old 8xbonus on blackjack back, but that's not going to happen. Is 20xbonus reasonable for a slots bonus? At what point does it go from good to reasonable and from reasonable to bad? I was thinking to compensate for higher percentage matches, decimalize the the percentage and divide the wagering. For example a 50% with a 20xbonus would get divided by 0.5 to become 40xbonus and a 200% with a 20xbonus would get divided by 2 to become 10xbonus. Obviously this would be for rating purposes only and not for information (as the WR would then be wrong lol).
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time and help.
