Free Spins will expire 72 hours after being credited. Upon expiry, all remaining spins and pending winnings will be lost.
Casino Instant Bonus won as part of this offer can be used to play any Casino games. Casino Instant Bonus (and any winnings derived from stakes placed using the bonus) will expire 72 hours from issue if the wagering requirements are not fully met.
To convert the Casino Instant Bonus, and any winnings, into cash that can be withdrawn, players must earn 1 redemption point per $1 of Casino Instant Bonus awarded before the bonus expires.
When placing a wager, funds will be taken from the currently available Casino Instant Bonus balance first (if it has been brought to the game), and from the currently available real money balance second.
Any winnings derived from stakes placed from using Casino Instant Bonuses are considered part of the bonus until the required redemption points to convert the bonus to cash have been earned. As soon as players have earned the redemption points required, the Casino Instant Bonus balance will be converted to real money and credited to their account instantly once all game sessions have been exited.
Cash rewards don't carry any wagering requirements and can be used in any games, but cannot be assigned or transferred.
