In the vast world of online casinos you will struggle to find a provider that doesn't offer the occasional incentive, these offers usually come in the form of bonus codes.

Online casinos offer different types of deals based upon your status and interaction with their casino, for example, should you be a newcomer to the casino you might be offered a welcome bonus, if you're a regular depositor you may get a bonus code that tops up your deposits or even get free cash advances. Working bonus codes to your advantage can be key when trying to win at your favourite games.

With all of this in mind we have produced a handy step by step guide on how to gain and redeem bonus codes for your favourite or new online casino:

How to get bonus codes

There are many ways to get online casino bonus codes but the below are some of the best:

Sign up to a new casino - Make use of 'Welcome Offer'

Make regular casino deposits - Regular depositors are sometimes awarded with new bonus codes

Free spins - if you are a regular on slot games you will sometimes get offered free spins

Match deposit - May casinos offer to match your deposits up to a certain value

How to redeem your bonus code

This is how the process of claiming and using casino bonus codes usually works. You can get the specific promo code from wherever you saw it, be that an email, on the website or on a leaflet.

This is how to redeem your bonus code:

Go to the online casino that's issued the bonus you want to claim

Enter the bonus code either when signing up or entering it when depositing (for match deposits codes etc)

Choose 'Apply' or a similar corresponding button

And the bonus is yours!

How to withdraw your winnings along with you bonus

In order to withdraw any matched deposits or extra cash bonus offers in your account they need to have been used a number of times. A sum equivalent to thirty two (32) times the total of (i) the bonus amount and (ii) the 'buy in' amount (to the extent that it is matched by the bonus) must be wagered on eligible games (see below). These wagering requirements apply to each separate stage of this promotion.

For example, a first transfer of 150 GBP would be matched with a 100 GBP bonus for a total of 200 GBP (100 GBP bonus and the 100 GBP of your 'bought in' funds that was matched). If the wagering requirement was x 32, this would require a total stake of 6,400 GBP to convert into withdrawable cash.

A withdrawal of real funds (not 'buy in' or bonus funds) whilst you have a bonus active on your account will not result in the removal of your bonus. If you wish to withdraw your 'buy in' funds, you will need to cancel and you will forfeit the bonus balance and all pending winnings.
