The four questions readers ask most, answered in a sentence or two. Checked September 2026.
Multiply the bonus (and the deposit, if the terms say so) by the wagering figure: a £20 bonus at 10× means £200 of stakes before withdrawal. Check which games count, and at what percentage.
Until the required stakes are placed, bonus funds and any winnings from them stay locked; withdrawing early usually forfeits them. Wager-free offers pay winnings as cash immediately.
Play the eligible games at stakes within the terms until the total staked reaches the requirement, before the expiry date. Excluded games and high stakes often do not count.
They can delay a withdrawal for identity checks required by licence, and can withhold bonus winnings if terms were breached. Your deposit balance, once verified, must be paid out; a dispute goes to the operator’s ADR body.

For Great Britain, verify the current Gambling Commission promotion rules. Hypothetical inputs do not validate an offer.
They are not beaten; they are cleared by staking the turnover figure, and the expected cost of doing so is stakes × house edge, which on a 30% game at 10× exceeds a £20 bonus. The only way to owe no turnover is to decline the bonus, which operators must allow.
From How to calculate wagering requirements: the clause, in plain English, with the arithmetic
The Commission defines a wagering requirement as wagers ‘totalling a particular value for funds to become withdrawable’; the value is the bonus balance times the multiplier, capped at 10 for bonus funds from 19 January 2026. The mechanics of the withdrawal itself belong to Payout Ledger.
From How to calculate wagering requirements: the clause, in plain English, with the arithmetic
Under the definition, funds subject to the requirement are not withdrawable until the wagers total the stated value. Whether a cash balance can be withdrawn separately depends on the clause, which our notes on bonus and cash balances take line by line. The code requires the restriction to be shown where you play, not only in a document.
From How to calculate wagering requirements: the clause, in plain English, with the arithmetic
The bonus balance stays locked until the turnover is staked, and the Commission’s transparency guidance requires players to be told when they are playing with restricted funds and what the restrictions are. Turnover = bonus × multiplier; stakes = turnover ÷ contribution.
From How to calculate wagering requirements: the clause, in plain English, with the arithmetic
A wagering requirement locks a bonus balance until stakes of a stated total have been placed; on a £20 bonus at the 10× ceiling that is £200 of turnover, and on a 30% game £666.67 of stakes. The expected cost of clearing is stakes × house edge.
From How to calculate wagering requirements: the clause, in plain English, with the arithmetic
In the Commission’s words: ‘where a customer is required to make wagers totalling a particular value for funds to become withdrawable’. The value is set by a multiplier, capped at 10 times bonus funds under LCCP 5.1.1 from 19 January 2026.
