How to get a bonus for the first deposit - instructions
Introduction: welcome bonus - not a "freebie," but a tool
A welcome bonus (match bonus) increases the first deposit by N% (for example, 50-200%) and often gives freespins. It is beneficial if:- fair conditions (≤ x35 vager, 100% slot contribution, adequate max bet);
- payment methods are symmetrical (both contributed and output);
- you are ready to pass KYC/SoF and comply with deadlines.
- Below are clear steps to make everything go smoothly.
Short: 10 steps to bonus and first withdrawal
1. Select a site with a license and a transparent Payments page.
2. Create an account, enable 2FA, confirm e-mail/phone.
3. Open the Promotions/Welcome section - check that the bonus is available to you personally.
4. Read the terms card: vager, deposit, max bet, min/max deposit, deadline, exceptions.
5. Select the deposit method (preferably local) and check the symmetry of the output.
6. Make a deposit for an amount suitable for the min/max bonus; Enter a code if necessary.
7. Make sure the bonus is accrued (balance/progress bar/freespins).
8. Win back in slots with a 100% contribution, observing max bet and deadlines.
9. Prepare KYC and submit the withdrawal request using the same method.
10. Fix the facts (ETA, amounts, screenshots) - useful for future elections.
Step 1. Choosing a site (safety> percentage)
Mini checklist before registration:- License (MGA/UKGC/onshore regulators) and current rules on the site.
- Payments page: lows/highs, fees, ETA by method, I/O symmetry.
- 24/7 chat with understandable SLAs (not "wait").
- Local rails: PIX (BR), Interac (CA), UPI (IN), PayID (AU), SEPA/FPS (EU/UK), stables in crypto.
- The minimum conclusion is adequate (not "from $50" with a deposit of $10).
Step 2. Registration and basic KYC readiness
Data = as in the document (matching names speeds up payments).
Prepare: passport/ID, selfie, proof of address; with large amounts - Source of Funds.
Turn on 2FA and save the backup codes.
Step 3. We understand our "pack" of greetings
The most common combination is:- Match bonus: + 100% to the deposit (sometimes 50-200%).
- Freespins: for specified slots, with a separate deadline.
- Deposit portions: 1st/2nd/3rd deposits - miscellaneous interest and limits.
- Specify: is there a code, a minimum deposit for activation, a cap on freespins.
Step 4. We read the conditions card (60 seconds)
Wager: the target zone for a beginner is ≤ x35.
Game contribution: slots = 100%; live/board games are often 0-10% or eliminated.
Max bet when wagering: reasonable (usually from eq. $2); excess = revocation.
Min/Max deposit, min output, possible win cap with FS.
Timing and TZ: time to play/activate freespins.
Excluded games/providers and "forbidden mechanics" (sometimes Bonus Buy).
Payment methods: not all deposits participate in bonuses - see the list.
Step 5. Choose the deposit method (symmetry = speed)
Rule: how they made it - so output:- BR → PIX → PIX; CA → Interac → Interac; IN → UPI → UPI; AU → PayID → PayID; EU/UK → SEPA/FPS → SEPA/FPS; Crypto → stablecoins (USDT/USDC) with whitelisted address.
- Symmetry reduces document requests and speeds up cashout.
Step 6. Make a deposit and activate
Contribute an amount not lower than the minimum for the bonus (and not higher than the cap, if any).
If a code is required, enter before/during the deposit (see instructions on the screen).
Check that the bonus is credited: separate balance/progress/freespins are ready to launch.
Step 7. Play without traps
We only play games with 100% contribution.
Do not exceed max bet; check the limit before the session.
We follow the progress bar and the "vager remnant."
We do not pull to the deadline: leave the buffer on KYC and payment.
Step 8. KYC/SoF and first withdrawal request
KYC is almost always needed before the first output; sometimes SoF.
Check: the vager is closed, max bet is not violated, name = payment data.
Apply for withdrawal using the same method as deposit, within limits.
Save the purchase requisition screen (amount/method/time).
Step 9. What to do when delayed
Open the ticket in the chat: "Application ID, method, date/time, please give ETA and a list of missing documents."
If necessary - escalation to the supervisor/host; keep the tone correct and specific.
Mini-formulas and examples
1) Wager on bonus:- Bonus $100, x30 → turnover $3,000 (100 × 30).
- $50 deposit + $50 bonus, x30 → turnover $3,000 ((50 + 50) × 30).
- 50 FS at $0. 10, win $12, x30 → turnover $360 (12 × 30).
- Vager ≤ x35 + slots 100% + max bet ≥ eq. $2 + deadline ≥ 3-7 days.
Frequent errors (and quick fixes)
Race for percentage, not terms → See wager/contribution/max bet/timing.
Violation of max bet → Bonus burns out; Fix the limit in the note.
Play in "zero" games → Keep slots 100%.
Deposit by localka → withdrawal by bank → Longer and with additional checks; observe symmetry.
Ignore the deadline → Start playing right away, leaving time on KYC.
Mismatch of names in profile and payment → Stop by compliance; check Latin.

Mini-FAQ
Do I need to enter a code for the welcome bonus?
Sometimes - yes. See in the card: "Auto-apply" or "Enter code." If you need a code, enter before/during the deposit.
Why wasn't the bonus awarded?
Common reasons: deposit below minimum, did not enter code, inappropriate method/geo. Contact the chat - ask to check the logs.
Is it possible to play in live games?
More often a contribution of 0-10% or a ban. For the duration of the game, choose 100% slots.
Is the first conclusion long - is it normal?
Yes: KYC/SoF and anti-fraud. Further, after "whitelisting," usually faster.
It is simple to receive a bonus for the first deposit if to stick to a system: the reliable platform → clear conditions → a local symmetric deposit → the disciplined after game → the prepared KYC → the request for a conclusion and fixing of the facts. Do not chase the "percentage without rules," follow deadlines and max bet - and your welcome bonus will become a real increase to the bankroll, and not a source of surprises.
