Casino Turnover Requirement Explained: How Turnover Works

Turnover is the rule that decides when bonus winnings can be withdrawn, and it is the number one reason players get stuck at cash-out. This guide explains what turnover means, how to calculate it with simple examples, which games count, and the mistakes to avoid.

What is a turnover requirement?

A turnover requirement is the total amount you need to bet before winnings from a bonus or free credit can be withdrawn. It is sometimes called a wagering requirement, rollover or playthrough. They all mean the same thing.

Turnover counts the total value of your bets, not your wins or losses. Every bet you place on an eligible game adds to your turnover, whether that spin wins or not.

How to calculate turnover

Most offers state turnover as a multiple, such as 5x or 10x. You multiply the amount the offer says by that number.

Example 1: Free credit

You claim AUD 10 free credit with a 10x turnover requirement. You need to place AUD 10 x 10 = AUD 100 in total bets before you can withdraw.

Example 2: Deposit bonus

You deposit AUD 50 and receive a AUD 50 bonus. If the turnover is 5x on the deposit plus bonus, you need to bet (AUD 50 + AUD 50) x 5 = AUD 500.

Example 3: Counting bets

If you spin a pokie 100 times at AUD 1 per spin, that adds AUD 100 to your turnover, no matter how much you won or lost.

These are examples only. The real turnover for each offer is shown in its terms on the promotions page.

Which games count toward turnover?

Not every game counts the same. Each offer lists its eligible games, and some games may count less or not at all.

Game typeUsual treatment
PokiesMost often eligible
Fishing gamesDepends on the offer
Live casinoOften limited or excluded
Sports bettingDepends on the offer

Always check the offer terms. Playing a game that does not count is one of the most common reasons turnover seems stuck.

Common turnover mistakes

Requesting a withdrawal too early

If turnover is not complete, the withdrawal cannot be approved. Check your progress first. If you are already waiting, see why a withdrawal stays pending.

Playing games that do not count

Bets on excluded games do not add to turnover, so the requirement does not move.

Not reading the maximum withdrawal

Many bonus offers cap how much you can cash out, even after turnover is complete.

Claiming a bonus you did not need

If you want the quickest possible cash-out, you can skip a bonus and play with your own deposit instead.
