The shelf of fine print behind the big number
An offer card always lights up a percentage and an amount. The substance sits in the rules, where a single word (cap, contribution, expiry) can weigh more than the number itself.
The numbers in brackets refer to the second section of Dukat.bet’s general bonus terms, as we read them on 11 October 2026. An individual offer’s wording can differ, and in a clash the offer wins.
Yes or no: eight words before you decide
| Term | In short | Where you meet it |
|---|---|---|
| Deposit bonus | A restricted sum added in proportion to your deposit. | On the offer card. |
| Minimum deposit | Below this, the offer won’t activate. | In the offer terms. |
| Offer-specific condition | A separate rule that can override the default. | Behind the phrase ‘unless stated otherwise’. |
| One active bonus (2.11) | Two never run side by side. | When activating a second one. |
| One person, one bonus (2.1) | The restriction also covers the household, address, email, IP and device. | If a family member already had an offer. |
| Opting out (2.12) | You can decline the bonus and play freely with your own money. | At deposit, next to the checkbox. |
| Percentage | At 500%, the bonus is five times the deposit. | In the name of the offer. |
| ‘Up to’ amount | The ceiling: you get no more even if you deposit more. | Right after the percentage. |
The turnover glossary: nine words for while you play
| Term | In short | Where you meet it |
|---|---|---|
| Bet cap (2.7) | By default, no single bet may exceed 5 EUR during wagering. | At the stake selector. |
| Contribution (2.14) | On slots the full stake counts; roulette, other tables and video poker add nothing; live dealer bets are left out. | If you swap a slot for a table. |
| Exclusion list (2.15) | A long list of titles, including Aviator, Mines, Plinko, Keno and Mini Roulette. | At the end of the rules. |
| Gamble (2.7) | Doubling a win; this too is measured against the cap. | On the pop-up button after a win. |
| Jackpot slot (2.15) | ‘All jackpot slots’ fall outside; whether the tag or the mechanic decides is not public. | On the jackpot games shelf. |
| Multiplier | How many times the bonus has to be staked through. | Only in the offer terms; we give no figure. |
| Purchased bonus round (2.7) | The buy price counts as one bet against the 5 EUR. | At the Bonus Buy button, see special features. |
| Turnover | Every stake you place, win or lose. | Ten 2 EUR spins make 20 EUR. |
| Wagering | Bonus-linked turnover you must play through before the money is released. | Next to the bonus balance. |
Deadline, balance, withdrawal: seven words for the endgame
| Term | In short | Where you meet it |
|---|---|---|
| Cashback | Money back on losses; the 15% is part of the formula, and we saw no separate terms. | At the end of the offer name. |
| Early withdrawal | Cashing out before wagering ends; the offer states the effect. | Before the withdrawal button. |
| Expiry | The end of the deadline; the terms set out what is forfeited. | If turnover stalls halfway. |
| Locked balance | The bonus-derived part you can’t withdraw yet. | On a separate line. |
| Promotional free spins | Spins in one stated slot, each at a set stake value, not the free rounds of a bonus feature. | In promotional packages. |
| Validity (2.9) | By default you get 14 days to complete it. | Counted from activation. |
| Withdrawable balance | Your own deposit plus whatever has already been released. | In the cashier. |
One number, three separate shelves
Three offers, not one package – each belongs to its own category.
Slots. For slots, the matching offer is titled Slots Bonus – 500% up to 3,000 EUR + 15% Cashback. Given that 2.14 counts slot stakes in full, your attention shifts to the bet cap and the exclusions.
Live tables. Here you read Live Casino Bonus – 500% up to 3,000 EUR + 15% Cashback. By the general rule, live play builds no turnover; the specific offer may differ, so read it. See the live tables shelf.
Instant games. This one carries Instant Bonus – 500% up to 3,000 EUR + 15% Cashback. Nowhere does 2.14 mention instant play, while 2.15 excludes several instant titles: the Instant Bonus terms and the exclusion list tell you what counts.
Combing through a terms page in six steps
- Note down every ‘unless stated otherwise’ exception.
- Find the multiplier and work out the turnover in euros.
- Check what percentage each category counts at.
- Compare your favourite games with the exclusion list.
- Keep your stake under 5 EUR and switch the gamble off.
- Mark the expiry date in your calendar.
How many spins does each day need?
Worked example with invented values – independent of Dukat.bet:
You deposit 30 EUR; at 500% that makes a 150 EUR bonus. The invented multiplier is 25 and the deadline is 14 days. What is the turnover, and how many 2 EUR spins a day does it take?
Solution. 150 × 25 = 3,750 EUR, or 1,875 spins. Spread over fourteen days, that is roughly 134 a day – a lot for one evening session.
Play a third of the turnover on an excluded jackpot slot, and 1,250 EUR drops out of the counter.
A ‘big’ bonus costs you time as well.
Four lines for your notebook before you tick the box
- The turnover in euros, split into days.
- Whether a feature buy in your chosen game fits under the cap.
- Which of your games are on the exclusion list.
- What happens to the bonus if you withdraw early.
