Welcome Bonus T&Cs: Wagering Requirements Explained in Plain English
A bonus is only as good as its terms. Here's how wagering requirements, minimum odds and expiry dates work — so there are no surprises.
In this article
Welcome bonuses can give your account a real boost — if you understand the rules. Here's what the most common terms mean.
Wagering requirement (rollover)
This is how many times you need to bet the bonus before it becomes withdrawable cash. A ₦5,000 bonus with a 5× rollover means you must place ₦25,000 of qualifying bets.
Minimum odds
Only bets at or above a set price count towards the rollover — often per selection on accumulators. Bets below the minimum don't count.
Expiry date
Bonuses usually need to be used and wagered within a set number of days. Unused bonus funds expire.
Maximum winnings
Some offers cap how much you can win from bonus funds. Check this before staking big on long shots.
| Term | Example | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| Rollover | 5× | Bet ₦25,000 to unlock a ₦5,000 bonus |
| Min. odds | 1.50 per selection | Lower-priced legs won't count |
| Expiry | 14 days | Use it within two weeks |
