With 30x wagering on a ₱100 bonus credit, you must place ₱3,000 in qualifying bets before you are allowed to withdraw. Contribution rates tend to differ between games, with slots frequently counting in full and table games counting only partly or not at all. What an offer is really worth depends on four terms taken together: the multiple, the game weighting, the highest stake allowed during wagering and the expiry window.

Using it in practice

The multiple by itself says nothing about what the bonus costs you. Look at the game weighting, the highest stake allowed while wagering and the expiry window, because each of these can ruin a headline offer, and the stake cap is frequently what makes clearing it unrealistic. You will remember it more easily next to bankroll management explained, since the pages that cover one usually mention the other too.

Across the game pages here, expect to see terms such as Wagering requirement, and if a studio has not published the figure underneath one, the page notes that and avoids citing a number from a comparison site. Because of that, a few of the spec tables here have gaps in them.

The common misreading

Many people read wagering as a demand to ‘deposit this much’. What counts is turnover rather than your deposit, and the same funds are tallied again each time they are staked. Many also assume the headline multiple is the full condition, though game weighting and the stake cap frequently count for more.

A worked example

Playing through ₱3,000 on a game with 96% RTP means an expected loss near ₱120 before the bonus becomes withdrawable. With a ₱100 bonus, clearing it already has a negative expected value, and that comes before counting any game-weighting rule that lets part of the turnover count for less than its face value.
