What is casino cashback?

Casino cashback is a bonus that refunds a percentage of your net losses over a set period, such as a day or a week. If you deposit and lose £200 in a week with 10% weekly cashback, you get £20 back. Some casinos pay it as cash, others as bonus money with a wagering requirement.

Key facts

  • Formula: net losses in the period × cashback percentage.
  • Net losses = deposits minus withdrawals and remaining balance, as the terms define it.
  • Common rates: 5% to 20%; higher VIP levels often get more.
  • Check whether cashback is paid as cash (withdrawable) or bonus money (wagering applies).
  • No losses in the period means no cashback.

What to check

Look at how often it is paid, whether it is cash or bonus funds, any maximum amount, and whether losses on bonus money count. Cashback softens a losing period; it does not change the odds of any game.

Frequently asked questions

Is cashback the same as rakeback?
No. Cashback is paid on net losses; rakeback is paid on the amount you bet, win or lose.
Is casino cashback withdrawable?
When paid as cash, yes. When paid as bonus money, you must meet its wagering requirement first.
How often is cashback paid?
Daily or weekly is most common; some casinos pay monthly. The terms state the period and when it is credited.
