Casino Calculators
Work out what a bonus really asks of you, and what a session costs on average, before you play. Free, no sign-up, and nothing you enter leaves your browser.
Before you use them
These calculators show long-run averages. No calculator can predict what happens in one session: you can lose more than the average, and every casino game has a house edge. For players aged 21 and over.

Wagering requirement calculator
Enter a bonus’s terms to see how much you’d have to bet before you can withdraw, what that costs on average, and what the bonus is really worth.
How the wagering calculator works
The wagering requirement is the bonus (or deposit plus bonus, depending on the terms) multiplied by the wagering multiple. If your games count less than 100% towards wagering, you have to bet more to clear it. The expected cost is the total you’d bet multiplied by the house edge, and the estimated value is the bonus minus that cost, capped at any maximum cashout.
Worked example
A ₱1,000 deposit with a 100% match gives a ₱1,000 bonus. At 25× wagering on the bonus, you’d need to bet ₱25,000 on slots that count 100% before you could withdraw.
Session cost calculator
See how much you’d bet in a session, and what it costs on average, from your bet size, how fast you play and the game’s RTP.
How the session cost calculator works
Total bet = average bet × bets per hour × hours. The house edge is 100% minus the RTP. The expected cost is the total bet multiplied by the house edge. Fast games add up quickly: a slot on autoplay can run hundreds of spins an hour, so even a small bet turns into a large total.
Worked example
₱20 a spin × 500 spins an hour × 2 hours = ₱20,000 bet in total. At 96% RTP, the house edge is 4%, so the expected cost is ₱800. That’s the average; a real session can cost far more.
Key terms, explained
RTP
Return to player: the share of all bets a game pays back over millions of rounds. 96% RTP means about ₱96 back per ₱100 bet, on average.
House edge
100% minus RTP: the casino’s average share of every bet. A 96% RTP game has a 4% house edge.
Wagering requirement
How many times you must bet a bonus (or deposit + bonus) before you can withdraw it.
Game weighting
How much each game counts towards wagering. Live casino often counts 10%, so you’d bet ten times more.
Max cashout
The most you can withdraw from bonus winnings, whatever you win.
Volatility
How bumpy a game’s results are. High volatility means rarer but bigger wins, and longer losing runs.
Use the numbers to set limits
The session cost is a good starting point for a budget: if the average cost of the session you’re planning is more than you’re comfortable losing, play for less time, bet less, or skip it. Set deposit and time limits in your casino account before you start.

Frequently asked questions
Can a calculator help me win?
No. These calculators show what a bonus requires and what play costs on average. Every casino game has a house edge, so the more you bet, the more you’re expected to lose.
Why is the expected cost an average?
Because results vary. Over millions of bets, losses settle close to the house edge, but one session can be much better or much worse than the average.
Where do the RTPs come from?
