It is the most common casino offer, and it also appears at some sportsbooks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-a-deposit-match-bonus-works\">How a deposit match bonus works<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Match rate:<\/strong> 100% means the bonus equals your deposit, up to the cap.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cap:<\/strong> a 100% match up to $500 gives $500 at most, so a $200 deposit earns $200 and a $1,000 deposit still earns $500.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Release:<\/strong> bonus funds often unlock as you wager, through a playthrough requirement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The offer may also require a minimum deposit, and unused bonus funds often vanish after a set period, so the expiry matters as much as the headline percentage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-worked-example\">A worked example<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Suppose you deposit $200 into a 100% match up to $500, and the terms ask for 10x playthrough on the bonus. You receive $200 in bonus funds and must wager $2,000 before they unlock. Games often count differently toward that target, so a slot and a table game may move you forward at different speeds. Doing this arithmetic before you accept the offer shows whether it fits how much you really plan to play. A lower multiplier such as 1x would need only $200 in wagers and is far easier to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-before-you-deposit\">Before you deposit<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the match rate, cap, minimum and playthrough, and confirm that your payment method qualifies. Decide your budget first, because a bigger deposit means more at risk, not free money. Keep your deposit limit in place, since a generous match can tempt you to deposit more than you planned. If the numbers do not fit how you play, skipping the offer is a perfectly good choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"faq-section\">\n    <h3 class=\"faq-title\"><span>\u2753<\/span> Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Is a deposit match free money?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            No. The bonus comes with <strong>terms<\/strong>, and your own deposit is still at risk. A match is extra play with conditions, so judge it by the playthrough and the expiry, not by the percentage.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>Can I withdraw my deposit before I use the bonus?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            Operators often <strong>cancel the bonus<\/strong> if you withdraw first. Check the terms before you ask, because withdrawing early may forfeit the bonus and any winnings it produced. Ask support what happens to your deposit before you request anything.\n        <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq-item\">\n        <summary><h4>What if I miss the playthrough deadline?<\/h4><\/summary>\n        <div class=\"faq-answer\">\n            The bonus and related winnings can be <strong>removed<\/strong>.
