    Cashback Bonus

    A percentage of losses returned to your account.

    Full Explanation

    Cashback bonuses return a percentage of your net losses directly to your account. Common rates range from 5-20%. Unlike standard bonuses, cashback often comes with low or no wagering requirements, making it more player-friendly and reducing the effective house edge.

    💡 Example

    10% weekly cashback: Lose R5,000 during the week → receive R500 cashback on Monday, no wagering required.
