Shirley again, This new term "wagering requirements" is also new to me and have already been told by other players that should keep that in mind before I play for real money. Not just looking for a bonus that is not too good to be true but also a wagering requirement that is fair for me to come back. Some casinos put a specific dollar figure on their wagering requirements – telling players that they need to bet $5,000 at the Slot games before they can cashout their bonus. This structure of wagering requirement is easy to understand, but other casinos outline their wagering requirements by telling only the number of times you need to wager your bonus. For example, a 30x (30 times) wagering requirement means that you need to spend your original deposit plus bonus amount at the games that many times over. Say you deposited $100 and received $100 of bonus money, a 30x wagering requirement means that you need to bet a total of $6000 before you can cashout your winnings. Some casinos may also set a minimum number of bets you much make to meet the wagering requirements. Why not just saying the total amount that someone will need to wager before cashing out. Wagering requirements can be hard to understand; how do you like to see them outlined by casinos so they are more straight-forward? Shirley

Hello, I am still a newbie to online casinos. Nice to meet you all! I’ve heard from other casino players that most big Welcome Bonuses aren't worthwhile because they come with higher risks. To see if this is true, I check out some of online casinos and found that usually the more money available in a Welcome Bonus, the higher the wagering requirements are. Some casinos that have small $100 Welcome Bonuses only ask players to wager their deposit and bonus around 10 to 20 times, but the more the bonus the higher the stakes; sometimes as high as 45 times wagering requirements. Even for larger bonuses that have reasonable wagering requirements, there is a greater risk involved because players are asked to put more of their own money on the line before they are eligible for their bonus. The risk is definitely greater with bigger Welcome Bonuses, but I'm wondering if you’re likely to spend more than you would normally when placing bets because you want to get your bonus? Or do you only work towards the bonuses that you can earn sticking to your normal gambling habits? What average of welcome bonus I should look for? Shirley
