The welcome bonus, read by a live table player

The welcome bonus is the first offer you see after registering: usually a percentage of the first deposit, sometimes with free spins. For a slot player the maths is straightforward. For someone who came for live tables, the offer can look far better on the banner than in practice.

The four clauses that matter at the table

  1. Contribution of table and live games — the share of each bet that counts towards wagering.
  2. Excluded games — some offers exclude live roulette entirely, or bets such as covering both colours.
  3. Maximum bet while the bonus is active — at tables with higher minimums, the cap is easy to hit.
  4. Deadline — how many days you have.

A worked example

Deposit 500 and receive 500 bonus, wagering 30x the bonus, 30 days (example figures in your account currency, not Bilionro terms). The requirement is 15,000 in bets. On slots at 100% contribution, that is 15,000 in spins. At live roulette at 10%, it is 150,000 bet at the table. Playing 20 per round, you would need 7,500 rounds in 30 days — out of reach for an ordinary player.

Opting out

If you accepted the offer and realise it does not fit, you can usually cancel it from the bonus section of the account. Cancelling removes the bonus balance and, as a rule, winnings made with it; your real balance stays yours. Check the exact rule in the bonus terms.

Sports welcome offers

If the welcome offer is for sports betting, the usual conditions are minimum odds and a minimum number of selections. We explain how those interact with bet types under bet types.

One offer per person

Welcome bonuses are normally limited to one per person, household, device and payment method. Opening extra accounts to claim the offer again breaks the terms and can lead to all accounts being closed with winnings voided.

Frequently asked questions

Is the welcome bonus valid at live tables?
It depends on the offer. Many allow live play at a low contribution; others exclude it. Check the contribution table.
What if I go over the maximum bet?
The terms may allow the operator to void the bonus and winnings made with it. Keep stakes under the cap while the bonus is active.
Can I choose not to receive the bonus?
Yes, usually by ticking or unticking the option in the cashier before you deposit.
