How to Plan a Bonus Hunt
Use this tool to aggregate your strategy.
- Add Offer: Enter the Deposit amount, Bonus amount, and Wagering Requirement (Wx) for a casino.
- Slot RTP: Enter the RTP of the slot you intend to use for wagering (e.g., 96.5% for Blood Suckers).
- Calculate: The tool subtracts the “Cost of Wagering” from the Bonus amount to find the EV.
Example: Is the Bonus Worth It?
Offer: Deposit $100, Get $100. Wager 40x Bonus ($4,000 total bets).
- Game: Slot with 96% RTP (4% House Edge).
- Cost to Wager: $4,000 * 4% = $160.
- Value: $100 Bonus – $160 Cost = -$60 EV.
This bonus is a trap. You will likely lose your deposit. The calculator helps you spot these bad offers instantly so you can focus only on the profitable ones (e.g., Wager 35x or lower).
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the “Cost of Wagering”?
It is the theoretical amount you will lose while fulfilling the rollover requirements. Formula: Total Wager Amount × House Edge. If this cost is higher than the bonus amount, the offer has Negative EV.
