Bonus Terms Explained
Bonus jargon can be confusing. Here is a plain-English breakdown of the terms
you will encounter most often at gamein and other Pakistani online casinos.
Understanding these before you claim any offer can save a lot of frustration later.
Always read the T&C before claiming any bonus — the best bonus is one you fully understand.
Wagering Requirement / Rollover
The number of times you must bet your bonus (or bonus + deposit) before you can
withdraw any winnings derived from it. A higher rollover means more playing time
required before cashout becomes available.
Example: You receive a PKR 2,000 bonus with a 15x rollover.
You must wager PKR 30,000 total before withdrawing. At a 10x rollover, that drops to PKR 20,000.
Maximum Bet During Bonus
While using bonus funds, most platforms cap your individual bet size — typically
between PKR 250 and PKR 500 per round or spin. Exceeding this limit can void
your bonus and any associated winnings.
Example: Your gamein welcome bonus carries a PKR 400 max bet cap.
Placing a PKR 1,000 single bet while using bonus balance may trigger a bonus forfeiture.
Game Contribution
Different game types contribute differently toward the wagering requirement.
Slots typically count 100%, while table games like Baccarat or Blackjack
often contribute only 10–20%. Check the bonus T&C to plan your gameplay accordingly.
Example: PKR 1,000 wagered on slots clears PKR 1,000 of rollover.
The same amount on a table game may only clear PKR 100–200.
Bonus Expiry
Bonuses are not available indefinitely. Most offers expire within 7, 14, or 30 days
from the date of activation. If the wagering requirement is not met within that
window, the bonus and any derived winnings are forfeited automatically.
Example: A 7-day bonus activated on Monday expires the following Monday at midnight, regardless of how much rollover remains.
Sticky vs Non-Sticky Bonus
A sticky (non-cashable) bonus remains in your account to play with but cannot itself
be withdrawn — only the winnings generated from it can be cashed out.
A non-sticky bonus is deducted from your balance at withdrawal time,
meaning both the bonus and its winnings are yours to keep.
Example: Win PKR 8,000 using a PKR 2,000 sticky bonus.
You withdraw PKR 6,000 (winnings only). With a non-sticky bonus, you may withdraw the full PKR 8,000.
Maximum Cash-Out
Some bonuses cap the total amount you can withdraw that originated from
bonus winnings. Even if your balance grows significantly, only up to the
stated maximum can be transferred to your payout method.
Example: A bonus with a PKR 10,000 max cash-out limit means
that even if you turn PKR 2,000 into PKR 25,000, only PKR 10,000 is withdrawable as
bonus-derived funds.
