Free Credit vs Bonus: What Is the Difference?

Free credit and bonuses can look similar, but the basis for receiving them and the conditions behind them are often different.

Free credit

Free credit is often offered as trial credit for new users, campaigns, or limited events. It may mention games or providers such as PG Soft, but the actual promotion rules come from the site.

Bonus

A bonus is often tied to a deposit, cashback, or activity. Turnover may be calculated from the deposit plus bonus, which can make the required wagering higher.

How to compare

Compare by turnover, eligible games, expiry time, withdrawal cap, and clarity of terms rather than by headline amount alone.
