Welcome bonus offers

A welcome bonus is the offer a betting site gives new customers on their first deposit, usually as a matched percentage up to a cap. It is the most common promotion in African markets and the headline reason many bettors choose one site over another.How welcome bonuses workYou opt in, deposit, and the bonus is credited subject to a wagering requirement — the number of times you must stake the bonus (and sometimes the deposit) before withdrawing. Minimum odds and time limits usually apply. Specific amounts and codes differ by operator; always read the current terms.Picking a good oneBigger is not always better.
