Wagering requirements: how bonus playthrough is calculated
A wagering requirement — also called playthrough or rollover — sets how much you must stake before a bonus balance turns into money you can withdraw. It is the single most important line of any offer, and the one most often misread. Below is a method that lets you work out any promotion at Doxxbet, or anywhere else, in a couple of minutes with nothing more than a phone calculator.
Go to the offerThe four numbers you need
- Base — what gets multiplied: the bonus only, the deposit plus the bonus, or, with free spins, the winnings from those spins.
- Multiplier — how many times the base must be staked, for example 20x, 30x or 35x.
- Weighting — the share of each stake that counts, depending on the type of game.
- Deadline — the number of days or hours you have to finish.
A fifth, hidden number is the maximum bet while the bonus is active. It does not change the turnover, but it decides how long completion takes and what happens if you go over it.
Step by step
Illustrative example, not a Doxxbet term. A €30 bonus, 30x the bonus, slots weighted at 100%, 14 days, maximum bet €5.
- Turnover: €30 × 30 = €900.
- At €1 per spin that is roughly 900 spins.
- Over 14 days that works out at about 65 spins a day to finish on time.
- On a table game weighted at 10%, the same target would need €9,000 of stakes.
Turnover is not the amount you lose. Stakes circulate: wins go back to the balance and are staked again. How much of the bonus survives to the end depends on the game's return and on luck — and the higher the multiplier, the more likely the balance hits zero before the counter does.
Game weighting
| Game type | Common weighting model | Counted from a €10 stake |
|---|---|---|
| Slots | 100% | €10 |
| Roulette, blackjack | 10–20% or excluded | €1–2 or nothing |
| Live dealer games | often excluded | nothing |
| Slots with a bonus-buy feature | sometimes excluded | nothing, and the stake may breach the terms |
The percentages above are an industry model, not Doxxbet data. The real list of games and their weighting sits in the terms of the specific offer.
When wagering is reasonable and when it is not
A low multiplier, a long deadline and full slot weighting make a bonus workable for an ordinary player. A high multiplier on deposit plus bonus, a short deadline and your favourite games excluded mean you are buying the bonus with restrictions that follow you to the end. A quick test: compare the turnover with how much normally passes through your account in a month. If it is several times higher, the bonus is pushing you to play more than you planned — a good reason to decline.
Tracking your progress
Most player profiles show wagering progress as a percentage or as the amount still to go. Note the base, multiplier and deadline when you opt in and compare them with what the profile shows. If the numbers disagree, take a screenshot and ask support immediately rather than at the moment you request a payout.
Wagering and withdrawing your winnings
Until wagering is complete, part of your balance is usually locked. The terms decide whether your own money is played first or the bonus first, and what happens if you ask to withdraw before you have finished. A common model: an early withdrawal cancels the bonus and the winnings made with it, while your own deposit remains yours. How that plays out at the cashier is explained on our withdrawal page.
