Welcome Bonus

A welcome bonus is the offer a casino hands new players on sign-up, usually tied to the 1st deposit. The most common shape is a percentage match: deposit €100 at a 100% match and you play with €200. Free spins often ride along, stapled to a specific slot or a small rotating list.

The headline number on the banner isn't the full story, though. Wagering requirements, max bet caps, game weightings, and expiry windows all live in the fine print, and they decide whether the bonus is worth anything real. A 200% match with 50x wagering usually pays out worse than a modest 50% match at 20x. Read the terms before you opt in, not after.
