Casino jargon at bet365 in plain English
Casino jargon decoded, from bonus terms to blockchain fees.
Bonus terms
Before you claim any offer, it helps to know these terms. With the 100% up to PKR 163,000 + 50 free spins welcome package and 35x wagering, the terms below are not theory.
- Bonus balance: money from an offer that stays apart from your cash until wagering is done
- Wagering requirement: the total betting volume needed to release a bonus, set at 35x over 30 days
- Free spins: rounds on a selected slot paid by the casino; their winnings carry a rollover
- Loss return: a 10% share of what you lost returned on a weekly basis
- Weighting: how much a bet adds to the wagering, often lower for table games
- Max bet: the highest stake allowed while a bonus is active
Each offer has its own terms, so always check the conditions page for the exact figures. How the multiplier works in practice is shown in our wagering guide.
Slot terms
The paytable and rules of a slot use the words below. Understanding them makes game choice much easier. Jackpot slots add a few terms of their own, covered in a separate guide.
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| RTP | The share of all stakes a game returns in theory, over millions of rounds |
| Volatility | Whether a game pays little and often or a lot and rarely |
| Megaways | Reels that change size every spin, creating shifting win lines |
| Progressive | A pot fed by a slice of each stake until it drops |
| Pay table | The screen with symbol values and bonus rules |
| Bonus buy | Direct purchase of the bonus feature |
More slot words
The wild symbol replaces others in a combination. Hit frequency: how often a slot produces any win, which is closely linked to volatility. A scatter usually pays anywhere on the reels and often triggers free spins or a bonus game. Demo mode: the free version of a slot, useful for learning the rules.
Cashier and account words
Deposits and withdrawals use a small vocabulary of their own. Knowing them makes every transaction clearer.
Verification: the process of confirming who you are with official documents. Payout time: 12 hours to 3 business days between request and payment at bet365. A pending withdrawal has been submitted but not yet approved.
Withdrawal minimum: PKR 1,000, the lowest payout possible. Daily withdrawal cap: $10,000 per day. The currency of your balance is fixed at sign-up, which in Pakistan is normally PKR.
Same-method rule: payouts normally return to the deposit method. The full payout process is covered in our withdrawal guide.
Crypto terms
With 14 coins in the cashier, crypto vocabulary comes in handy. Misunderstanding them can cost money. How crypto deposits and payouts work is covered in our crypto payments guide.
Gas: the fee you pay the network for each transfer. Confirmations: blocks that validate a transfer before crediting. Network: the blockchain a coin travels on, and it must be the same on both sides.
Stablecoin: a cryptocurrency designed to keep a stable value. TXID: the unique transaction ID that proves a transfer was sent. Address: the destination of a crypto transfer, best copied or scanned.
Words about your account

Responsible gaming terms
Responsible gaming tools have names worth knowing. Each one is in the account settings, and support can switch it on for you. How bet365 handles these tools is part of our verdict on bet365.
Deposit cap: the most you allow yourself to deposit over a period. Cooling-off period: a temporary pause from the account. Session reminder: a pop-up that tells you the time spent in a session.
Self-exclusion period: closing the account to yourself for a set time. This is the firmest option, and an early end is normally not possible. If gambling stops being fun, these tools and independent help services are there for you.
