FAQ

What do casino cashback and rakeback mean?

Cashback is a rebate on your net losses; rakeback returns a share of the house edge your wagering generates. Both put real, withdrawable value back in your pocket.

What is a wagering requirement?

It is the number of times you must bet a bonus before you can withdraw it — for example, x40 on a $100 bonus means $4,000 in wagers first.
