Match bonus

The single most-common casino bonus format. The operator matches your deposit up to a stated cap.

Notation to know:

• 100% up to €500 = deposit any amount up to €500; the operator matches 100% of your deposit (up to €500 in bonus money).
• 200% up to €200 = deposit any amount up to €100 (since 200% of €100 = €200 hits the cap).
• 300% up to €1500 across 3 deposits = a package spread across your first three deposits, each with its own cap.

The larger the match, the higher the wagering multiplier usually is. Compare offers by the expected value at your target deposit size, not by headline match %.
