Wagering Calculator – How Does It Work?

Oddsmart’s Wagering Requirement Calculator cuts through casino bonus jargon to reveal how much a deposit match is genuinely worth after you satisfy its turnover conditions.

By entering your deposit amount, match percentage, and the wagering multiplier (e.g. 30×), the calculator computes:

Total Bonus: your deposit × match %.

Expected Monetary Value (EMV): total bonus ÷ wagering requirement.

EMV as % of Deposit: EMV ÷ deposit × 100.

This simple formula shows that a “100% match up to £200” with a 30× requirement is really only worth £6.67 (3.3% of your £200 deposit), rather than the full £200 headline.

A lower wagering multiple, like 10× on a 50% match, delivers a far stronger EMV (e.g. £5 on £100 deposit = 5%).

With clear EMV figures, you can compare offers side-by-side, prioritise bonuses that boost your bankroll, and avoid spending hours on turnover traps that yield negligible returns.

Advanced tips include targeting sub-10× requirements, clearing with high-RTP games to minimise house edge, and weighing EMV against time-to-clear to optimise your matched-betting ROI.

Whether you’re chasing your first bonus or juggling dozens, the Wagering Requirement Calculator empowers you to turn complex casino terms into straightforward, data-driven decisions—so you focus only on the offers that truly pay.
