The Playthrough: how many times you need to bet the bonus to withdraw the money.    

The playthrough is a restriction that the online casino  puts onto the bonus casino, to prevent the players to cash in the bonus, without having played or with too few plays  .  

In practice you will have to bet the gifted money that you have  been  given  with the bonus for at least a number of times, specified in the "terms and conditions" of the bonus.  

The least number of bets to be able to withdraw the money of the bonus varies from casino to casino.  

For example Europe casino has a playthrough of 8x, a bonus with deposit of 100%  and a maximum bonus of 100$: if you deposit 100$ you are given free 100$ and you will have in total 200$ to begin to play, but to be able to cash in the money won, you have to play 8 times the amount of the bonus, or at least 800$.  

Cote d'Azur Palace Casino has instead a playthrough of 11x, a bonus with deposit of 200%  with a maximum bonus of 300$: depositing 150$ you will have free the double of your deposit, and you will begin to play in the casino with 450$. If you want to cash in the bonus you will have to bet it for 11 times, the least requisite of bet it is therefore 11 x 300$ = 3.300$.  

As you will have noticed the playthrough is different in the two online casino: this is due  both choices of marketing of the single casinos, also by the maximum amount given as a bonus.  

ATTENTION: not all the games are worth always 100% in the calculation of the playthrough.  

For instance in the "terms and conditions" of the bonus of Ruby Fortune Casino :  

The percentages are the followings:  

(a) Slots, American Roulette and Parlor Games are worth for 100% in the calculation of the least bet.  

(b) Table Poker, Red Dog, all the Roulettes excluded the American one,  War casino and Sicbo casino counts for the 50% in the calculation of the playthrough  

(c) Video Poker (excluded all the All Aces Video/Power Pokers), all the Blackjacks (except Classic Blackjack), Craps and Baccarat counts for the 10% in the calculation of the playthrough.

(d) Classic Blackjack and all the All Aces Video/Power Pokers counts  for the 2% in the calculation of the playthrough.  


Therefore always read  "terms and conditions" of the bonus casino in use.
