Bingo bonuses with no wagering requirements

If a bingo site offers a bonus with no wagering requirement, winnings earned using the bonus offer will be added to the withdrawable balance. 

For instance, if a bingo site offers newly registered players a bonus of £20 with a 5x playthrough requirement, they will need to wager not less than £100 before cashing out. The winnings will remain locked in the bonus balance until that condition is met. 

If there were wagering requirements, players would need to wager the bonus funds several times before withdrawing their winnings. 

Generally, though, bingo promotions tend to have lower wagering requirements than casino bonuses. The bingo playthrough requirements range from 2x to 10x your bonus funds, with many sites rarely exceeding 5x.

Common “no wager” bingo offers

Please remember that bingo bonuses always have a few conditions attached. As a standard precaution, you should always check out the terms and conditions as being in breach of them can lead to seizure of your funds. 

Below, we explain the array of bingo bonuses with no wagering requirements that are out there and how they work. 

1. Bingo play tickets 

Bingo tickets are the most popular form of incentive and allow new players to enter promoted bingo rooms a number of times for free in exchange for meeting a specific requirement, such as making a qualifying deposit or simply registering an account.

Any amount you win will be added to your cash balance, meaning you can withdraw it right away – thanks to the bingo tickets having no wagering policies attached. 

2. Bonus spins 

Another popular offer is bonus spins. Depending on the casino, new sign-ups may receive complimentary bonus spins that you can use to play slots for no cost as part of a welcome package. While bonus spins, or extra spins as many call them, are a bonus to play slots, there are quite a few bingo sites offering them, which is why we wanted to introduce this option, too.

3. Cashback bonuses

Members of the VIP program can have parts of their losses refunded through bingo cashback deals. 

Assuming you find an operator offering 10% cashback and you lose £60.00, they’ll refund £6.00. 

Winnings derived from cashback deals will be added to your account balance and is withdrawable with most operators, but others might enforce a low wagering requirement. 

4. Match deposit bonus

Match deposit bonuses are straightforward. The online bingo provider offers to match your first deposit by a percentage, capped to a certain amount.

You can also get several tickets as part of a welcome package with which you can enter bingo rooms for no entrance fee.

For example, if you are offered a 100% match up to £50, you can deposit £50 to claim the entire bonus, while a qualifying minimum deposit of £10.00 would be enough to unlock the bingo tickets and trigger the match boost.

5. Refer a friend

It is a strategy to attract more players using existing bingo players. With this bonus type, a player gets a unique code or link through which their friends can sign up. Once he has done that, you and your friend will receive a different bonus. 

• Your friend will receive the regular welcome bonus
• You will receive the agreed referral bonus

Your referee must have met certain conditions to unlock the referral bonus, such as making a deposit or wagering a certain amount.

6. Reload bonuses 

Reload bonuses are available to players who stick to playing on one platform after having played through their first deposit bingo bonus. Reload bonuses are ongoing and basically replicate the welcome bonus you had the chance of taking as a new customer.

You can receive them exclusively through email as an existing customer or as part of being a member of a loyalty program, and sometimes the casino offers them to every player on specific days.

No wager bingo bonus → conditions and limitations

While wagering requirements are the most penetrant condition bingo casinos attach to their offers, there are other things you should consider as not following the rules can have dire consequences.

• Game restrictions: Most sites will require players to use the free credits, tickets, etc., on the games specified in the conditions. Do not worry about playing ineligible games and risking the forfeiture of your winnings. The system will only accept bets if you play the specified bonus games. 
• Time limit: There are designated validity periods for bingo bonuses, and players must utilise the bonus funds within that period. After expiration, the bonus offer will become void and forfeit. The period varies, but most sites limit you to a week or a month. 
• Cap amount: Some bingo providers will set a maximum amount of money you can win with the bonus. Let’s say you deposit £10 and receive a £30 no wagering requirement bonus. If the cap amount is £100 and you win £250, you can only claim £100. 
• One-time offer: You can only claim the bonus once, whether playing at a site with or without wagering requirements. Do not try to open various accounts using different IPs to claim the offer.
