A wagering requirement is a specified amount of qualifying betting associated with a bonus or restricted balance. It measures turnover, not expected loss, and completing the arithmetic alone does not establish withdrawal eligibility.
Identify the amount being multiplied
“10× wagering” is incomplete without its basis. It might apply to the bonus, the deposit or both. In a hypothetical example with a 40-unit deposit and 20-unit bonus, a 10× bonus-only requirement creates 200 units of qualifying turnover. A 10× deposit-plus-bonus requirement creates 600. Neither is a current Felistra offer.
| Example basis | Calculation | Qualifying turnover |
|---|---|---|
| Bonus only | 20 × 10 | 200 |
| Deposit only | 40 × 10 | 400 |
| Deposit plus bonus | (40 + 20) × 10 | 600 |
Apply the game contribution
At 100% contribution, one unit staked counts as one qualifying unit. At 20%, it counts as 0.20 units. To generate 200 qualifying units entirely through a 20%-contributing game would require 200 ÷ 0.20 = 1,000 units of actual turnover, assuming every bet remains eligible. At 0% the game makes no progress, so no finite amount of betting through that game completes a positive requirement.
If you switch between games, their contributions must be accounted for separately. Do not use a single percentage for the whole session unless it accurately represents all relevant stakes.
Turnover is not a loss forecast
A player can re-stake returned funds, so 1,000 units of turnover does not necessarily mean depositing or losing 1,000 units. Conversely, a balance can run out before the requirement is completed. The requirement is not a budget recommendation, and no calculator can guarantee that enough funds will remain.
Read beyond the multiplier
Check maximum stakes, eligible games, minimum odds, expiry, excluded betting patterns, any cash-out restriction, withdrawal caps and the order in which cash and bonus balances are used. Some actions can cancel an offer or affect winnings. Ask for clarification before opting in when terms are ambiguous.
Our calculator separates qualifying turnover from contribution-adjusted turnover. It does not model every condition or predict losses, winnings or a withdrawable amount. Regulatory references explain terminology; requirements differ by jurisdiction and operator, and UK guidance is not evidence that UK rules govern Felistra.
