The best OnlySpins bonus is the one you can use on the games you actually want to play. Before claiming an offer, check what activates it, which games count towards its requirements and what must happen before winnings can be withdrawn. That takes a few minutes and makes the reward much easier to use.
Claim a bonus before you start playing
Open the available offers in your OnlySpins account and choose one before making a qualifying deposit. Read the promotion’s terms at the same time: a welcome offer may be tied to a first deposit, while another reward may require a different action. If the offer supplies a promo code, enter it at the point indicated in the claim process.
Use this order to avoid missing a step:
- Choose an offer and read its qualifying conditions.
- Select the bonus in the registration or account flow, if prompted.
- Enter the offer’s promo code if one is provided.
- Complete the required action.
- Check your bonus balance or free-spin allocation before opening a game.
Keep your deposited funds and promotional funds distinct when checking the account. Seeing your deposit does not, by itself, tell you whether the bonus has been added.
Decide whether an offer suits your play
A deposit match and free spins can look attractive for different reasons. The match gives you bonus funds to use under the promotion’s game and wagering rules. Free spins give you plays on the pokie specified by the offer. Neither headline tells the whole story without the conditions attached to it.
| Check | Why it matters to your choice |
|---|---|
| Qualifying action | Tells you whether registration, a deposit or another step is needed |
| Eligible games | Shows where you can use the reward and which play counts towards wagering |
| Wagering base | Determines the amount of eligible play required |
| Deadline | Tells you how long you have to use the reward or complete its requirements |
| Bet and winnings limits | Can affect how you play and how much bonus-derived winnings you may withdraw |
Start with the games. If an offer’s eligible pokies do not interest you, a bigger advertised reward may have little practical value. Then compare the qualifying deposit with the amount you planned to spend, rather than increasing your deposit solely to reach a bonus cap.
Work out what the wagering requirement means
Wagering is a play-through target, not an extra charge. The offer specifies an amount of eligible bets that must be placed before bonus-derived winnings can become withdrawable. The crucial detail is the base used to calculate that target.
For a requirement on bonus funds, the calculation uses the bonus amount. For a requirement on deposit plus bonus, it uses both amounts together. Winnings from free spins may have their own requirement. Check the exact wording of your selected offer before estimating how much play is involved.
Your game choice affects progress too. A game that contributes fully to wagering moves the target along at the full value of an eligible bet. A game with reduced contribution moves it more slowly; an excluded game does not move it at all. Check the offer’s game rules before switching from pokies to another category.
A maximum bet rule can apply while a bonus is active. Set your stake with that limit in mind, and check the deadline for completing wagering. The time allowed to use a reward and the time allowed to finish its play-through need not be the same.
Use free spins on the right pokie
When you receive OnlySpins free spins, find the game named in the promotion before you play. Free spins are allocated to an eligible pokie, so opening a different game may use your ordinary balance instead. Check the number of spins shown in your account or the game and use them within the offer’s stated period.
After the spins are played, look at how their winnings are recorded. Free-spin winnings can move into a bonus balance with conditions of their own, including wagering or a winnings limit. Read those conditions before treating the displayed amount as ready to withdraw.
If the spins do not show in the game, check the offer name, eligible pokie and qualifying action first. Also check your account’s bonus history: it can help you tell the difference between spins that have not been credited and spins that are waiting to be used on the specified game.
Check your balance before withdrawing
An active bonus can leave you with several figures on screen: deposited funds, bonus funds and winnings that have met the promotion’s requirements. Check the bonus status and remaining wagering before requesting a withdrawal. This is more useful than relying on the total balance alone.
If a reward has not appeared after you completed its qualifying action, revisit the offer you selected and any code it supplied. Compare the deposit or other action recorded in your account with the promotion’s terms. If those details match and the reward is still absent, use the contact option in your OnlySpins account and include the offer name and relevant transaction details.
For your next offer, repeat the same checks in a shorter order: claim action, eligible games, wagering base, deadline and withdrawal conditions. You will know what the bonus adds to your play and what it asks you to do in return.
