Game Weighting
The percentage at which each game contributes toward a bonus wagering requirement — slots usually 100%, table games often 10% or less.
What it means
Game weighting sets how much each unit staked counts toward clearing a wagering requirement. Slots typically count at 100%, so one euro staked clears one euro of the requirement. Table games commonly count at 10%, meaning ten euros staked clears one euro. Live dealer content is often excluded entirely. The weighting table is part of the promotional terms and varies by operator and sometimes by individual title.
Why it matters for operators
Weighting is what makes wagering requirements enforceable against the house edge rather than against a number on paper. Without it, players would clear bonuses on the lowest-edge games available — blackjack at basic strategy runs around 0.5% against a slot's 4% — and the expected margin during clearing would nearly disappear. Weighting table games at 10% restores the intended relationship: a 35x requirement at 10% weighting means staking 350 times the bonus, which at even a very low edge produces substantial expected loss. The compliance flip side is that weighting must be disclosed clearly up front, since regulators treat buried significant conditions as an unfair-terms problem.
Example
A 100 euro bonus with 35x wagering needs 3,500 euros staked on slots. On a game weighted at 10%, the same bonus needs 35,000 euros staked — which is why "wagering requirements can be cleared on any game" is rarely true in the way players read it.
