The size of a bonus is the first thing that catches the eye — and the last thing I look at. To me the bonus terms matter more: wagering, time limit and game weighting. A big 500 € bonus at 45x can be worse than a 100 € bonus at 25x.
Three numbers I check
Wagering shows how many times the amount must be played through. The time limit shows how long you have. Game weighting shows which games count toward wagering. These three decide whether a bonus is actually useful.
My own rule
I favour bonuses with 25x wagering or lower. A good example is LeoVegas. I will not take a bonus if the time limit is under a week — it forces me to play faster than I want. As an alternative, consider a no-deposit bonus.
Frequently asked questions
What is a good wagering requirement?
25x or lower is good for a Finnish player. 40x and above makes a bonus heavy.
Should I always take a big bonus?
No. The terms decide: a small bonus with low wagering can be worth more.
