How to use this bonus guide

Our team of experts have taken every piece of casino bonus info and compiled it into a bite-size guide. Treat it as your directory for all bonus pages and guides on Casinoplusbonus.

Here is how this guide works:

• The Casinoplusbonus team covers 10 types of bonuses and promotions

• We will introduce the various bonuses available at online casinos.

• We will briefly describe what each of the bonuses offers you as a player.

• At the end of each section, we leave you with a table containing anchors.

• Each anchor will lead you to a page or advisor guide covering the topic in more detail.

1. No Deposit Bonuses

No-deposit bonus deals come in two forms: free bonus money or free spins. That said, you will find some casinos pin on extra incentives.

A no-deposit bonus is pretty much what it says on the box. It is a bonus the casino gives you without you depositing any money. Call it a thank-you gift for signing up.

As soon as you register as a member, you receive your free spins or bonus money.

• Free spins create a bonus money balance from your free spins winnings.

• A bonus money no deposit bonus gives you an instant bonus balance.

Your challenge is to convert the bonus into real money. To do this, you will need to play through the wagering requirement.

Successfully converting a no-deposit bonus is a thrill for most players. You earn a real money balance without making a deposit or providing payment details.

2. Deposit Match Bonus

A deposit match bonus is one of the most used promotions in online casinos. They are easy to understand, but they can come with complex bonus rules.

How does a deposit match bonus work?

You make a deposit and the casino matches the deposit according to the percentage offered. Here are two examples.

• 100% deposit match up to $500: Let’s say you deposit $200. As this is a 100% deposit match deal, the casino will credit $200 to your real money balance and match the $200 100% by placing this balance into a bonus money balance.

• 50% deposit match up to $200: You decide you want to take advantage of the full $200 on offer. Therefore, you deposit $400, which the casino credits to your real money balance. The casino will then place 50% of the $400, so $200, into your bonus money balance.

It is essential that you follow the bonus rules once you claim your bonus. Two of the most important rules are to avoid playing games that contribute 0x wagering and never exceed the maximum bonus bet amount.

To understand how to find out what 0nline casino bonus rules there are, see the accompanying table.

3. Welcome Bonuses

A welcome bonus is usually a one-time ‘deposit match‘ deal. You deposit a balance, and the casino matches your balance in bonus money.

Most online casinos will also include free spins on top. The bullet point gives you an example of an online casino welcome bonus that covers crypto and fiat.

• 100% Deposit Match up to € 450 / C$ 675 / A$ 675 / NZ$ 750 / 7,800 R / ₹ 35,000 BTC 0.017 / LTC 2.44 + 200 Free Spins

Some online casinos will give you a chance to claim the welcome bonus on your first deposit. Others will break their welcome bonus offer into 3, 4 and sometimes 5 parts. Some will additionally include extras such as VIP loyalty points and a free spin on a bonus wheel.

Except for a few rare exceptions, the bonus will come with wagering requirements. Some will give you two wagering requirements. There is one for the bonus money balance and another for the free spins.

Playing through the wagering requirements will give you are real money balance. Often, this can be large as welcome bonus deals usually give you a high bonus money balance.

4. Regular Bonuses

Regular bonuses come in so many forms that this section is going to blow your mind! The good news is, unlike a welcome bonus, a regular bonus is available, well, regularly!

Once you use your one-time welcome bonus or bonuses, the casino wants you to stay engaged. Thus, you will usually find an array of regular bonus offers you can claim daily, weekly, or monthly.

They come in all shapes and sizes. The good news is, because they are regular bonus deals, you have plenty of time to understand how each one works.

• Cashback: You receive a percentage of your losses back daily, weekly, or monthly, which you will find explained in more detail in the next section.

• Reload Bonus: There are three types of reload bonus offers.

  • You receive a bonus money balance that matches a percentage of your deposit. This is effectively a ‘deposit match bonus‘.

• • You deposit and receive ‘free spins‘. All free spins’ winnings will head into your bonus balance and will have a wagering requirement.

• • You receive both bonus money that matches a percentage of your deposit + free spins. This is effectively a combination of a ‘deposit match bonus + free spins‘.

• Free Spins Bonuses: You make a deposit and receive free spins. Some free spins bonus offers reward you for making higher deposits. For example, you could receive more free spins, or the value of each free spin is higher.

You can find out more about free spins bonus deals via the Casinoplusbonus ‘Slot Machine Bonus‘ guide.

5. Cashback

Cashback is one of the Casinoplusbonus team’s most popular casino promotions, as most come with low wagering requirements. The idea of this bonus is to give you cashback on your losses over a set period.

Cashbacks are set over 1 day, 1 week or 1 month. The casino will return any losses from deposits during these periods. Here are some examples of cashback deals to look out for.

• Daily 3% Cashback Up to $200: For any losses over 24 hours, you will receive 3% of your losses paid back into your casino balance. The maximum cashback is $200 in this example.

• Weekly 25% Cashback Up to $400: If your total wins are lower than your total deposit between a predetermined 7-day period, the casino will pay back 25% of those losses. The maximum amount of cashback the casino will pay in this scenario is 25%.

• 10% Monthly Cashback Up: In this scenario, if you total balance over a 30-day period is less than the amount you deposited, the casino will reward with 10% of those losses.

• VIP Cashback: Most online casinos these days are including cashback as part of their VIP promotions. The higher the level you climb, the higher the cashback percentage and maximum cashback amount. Also, the wagering requirement for the cashback often become lower at higher VIP levels.

One the main benefits of cashback promotions is that they generally come with low wagering requirements. For example, Casino Infinity has a 1x wagering requirement attached to the cashback reward.

6. Gamification Bonuses

To create more engaging online casino experiences, some casino platforms are introducing gamification. This concept integrates game-like elements into casino platforms, offering a more immersive experience. Some common gamification tools include:

• Bonus Shops via Loyalty Points: Loyalty points earned through gameplay can be redeemed in bonus shops for free spins, bonus money, or merchandise. In fact, we have a dedicated guide to bonus shops here.

• Wheel of Fortune / Bonus Wheel: Players earn spins on the bonus wheel by depositing, collecting loyalty points, or participating in promotions. Prizes can range from free spins and bonus money to cash with no wagering and even physical merchandise for high-tier players.

• Missions and Challenges: Casinos set tasks, such as playing a specific number of spins on designated slots or hitting certain multipliers. Completing missions can reward players with loyalty points, free spins, or direct cash bonuses.

• Bonus Maps & Games: Some casinos offer interactive maps that players navigate by completing challenges and missions. As players progress, they unlock new bonuses, and finishing the entire map can lead to significant rewards like VIP level-ups or cash prizes.

These gamification tools not only keep players entertained but also provide additional opportunities to win bonuses. However, it’s important avoid over-gambling as gamification bonuses can be addictive. For more information, see our gamification bonus guide here.

7. VIP Loyalty Rewards

For mid to high rollers and online casino whales a good VIP program can help you get more value for your loyal patronage. If you are new to loyalty rewards programs, they are often confusing, but we have a guide that explains exactly what to look out for.

When searching for the right loyalty rewards program for you, there are quite a few variables to consider.

Here are some of those variables:

• Points Levels: Consider how points you need to earn to rise through the various VIP levels

• Bets to Points Conversions: You should always try to find out how much you need to bet using real money to accumulate to earn 1 point.

• Rewards: Compare rewards with other VIP loyalty programs. The idea is to figure out which loyalty program is going to give you the most value.

• Game Contribution: Check to see which games earn loyalty points. If you are a live casino player, and the casino does not count bets on live dealer games, then the VIP loyalty program is not for you.

8. Real Money Casino Promotions

It is another one of the Casinplusbonus team’s favourite promotions. You will find the majority of real money online casino promotions are through software providers. When we say real money, we mean cash or crypto wins with 0x wagering.

Some of the most well-known game developers that supply online casinos with these promotions are as follows: Pragmatic Play, Wazdan, BGaming, Endorphina, Playson, BetSoft, and Spinomenal. Depending on the software provider, these cash-paying promotions use a variety of mechanics so you can win real money or crypto.

Here are some examples:

• Random Prize Drops: Play selected casino games to qualify. At random, a cash or crypto prize can and into your real money balance.

• Leaderboard Promotions: You earn points to climb the promotion’s leaderboard. If you finish in one of the top cash/crypto paying spots, you win a prize with 0x wagering.

• Wheel of Fortune: BetSoft’s Take the Prize promotion uses a Wheel of Fortune that triggers randomly. There are several cash prizes on the wheel, and of course, the aim is to cross your fingers and hope the land the biggest one!

• Achievements: Quickspin uses a built-in mechanic similar to online casino gamification. If you complete a particular milestone or win amount, you earn points that eventually convert into real money/crypto prizes.

9. Virtual Table and Live Casino Game Promotions

We decided to give table games and live dealer titles their very own section. The goal is to help you understand how virtual table games and live dealer games fit in with all the promotions mentioned above.

Here are some examples:

• Live Casino Cashback: The live casino cashback is a promotion some online casinos offer to build up their live dealer player-base.

• Leaderboards & Prize Drops: Some live casino software providers will create promotions especially for live dealer games. One such promotion that is a great example of this is Pragmatic Play Drops and Wins Live Casino.
  

• Welcome Bonuses: There are two ways online casinos offer live casino welcome bonus deals. They either include them in the game weights, or the casino will have a separate bonus offer especially for live dealer games.

• Regular Bonuses: Rather than make this complicated, read the above welcome bonus. Live casino regular bonus deals use the same concept as welcome bonuses that include live dealer games.

• Live or Table Game Casino Chips: The good old casino table game free chip bonus is dying out. It used to be a popular bonus deal to get players grinding on blackjack, baccarat, and roulette games. Yet, there are few online casinos that offer the casino chip these days, but there are a few that still hold on to tradition and do!

10. Rakeback

The rakeback is rarely seen at online casinos, but when you do see it in conjunction with cashback, it’s a valuable promotion in the long run. This promotion basically gives you a percentage of the RTP or house edge on losing bets.

How does an online casino rakeback bonus work?

• 5% Unlimited Rakeback: Let’s say you are playing an online slot with an RTP of 96%. The casino will take the 4% house edge and your total spins bet, then give you back 5% of the 4% lost on your bet.

Sound complicated? That’s because it is, but there is an easy to understand scenario to give you a better idea of how this works.

• The Scenario: You bet $2.00 on a spin on a 96% RTP slot game. The casino will take 4% of your bet, which is $0.08, and then give you 4% of this amount back with 0x wagering. 4% of $0.08 is only $0.0032, but over 1,000 bets this is worth $3.20.

The returns for rakeback bonuses are not exactly spectacular, but it is better than nothing. After a certain amount of bet, rakeback builds up, and when you do get to claim it with 0x wagering, it is a welcome addition to your bankroll.
