What it's really worth
Clearing a $2,000 bonus at a 40× rollover means wagering $80,000. At a typical 4% house edge (96% RTP slots), that grind costs you about $3,200.00 in expected losses — so the real value lands near $-1,200.00.

Run your own numbers
Change the game (house edge) or whether the rollover applies to deposit + bonus to see how the real value shifts. Lower-edge games like blackjack clear far more value than slots.

Not worth it at this house edge — the wagering requirement costs more than the bonus is worth. Try a lower-edge game (e.g. blackjack) or skip it.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the Stake bonus?
- Stake's current headline offer is 200% up to $2,000. It carries a 40x (deposit + bonus) wagering requirement — see the real-value breakdown above before opting in.
- Is the Stake bonus worth it?
- After a 40× rollover at a typical 4% house edge, the $2,000 bonus is worth roughly $-1,200.00 in real terms — about -60% of face value. At this house edge the rollover costs more than the bonus is worth — use a lower-edge game or skip it.
- How does the wagering requirement work?
- A wagering requirement (rollover) is how many times you must bet the bonus before you can withdraw it. A 30× requirement on a $100 bonus means $3,000 of wagers. Every wager bleeds the house edge, so the requirement quietly erodes the bonus's real value — which is exactly what the breakdown above quantifies.
