How the Stay Casino Bonus Structure Works

The Two Parts of the Package

The first part is a deposit match. You fund your account in AUD using PayID, POLi, a card or one of our supported cryptocurrencies, and we add a percentage of that deposit as bonus funds. The second part is a set of free spins, credited to selected pokies from providers like Pragmatic Play, Nolimit City or Booming Games. Which titles are eligible rotates, so always check the promotions page for the current list before you deposit.

Both parts carry their own conditions. Bonus funds from the deposit match usually sit separately from your cash balance until wagering requirements are cleared. Free spin winnings often land as bonus funds too, rather than withdrawable cash straight away. None of this is unusual for Australian online casinos, but it's worth reading before you opt in, not after.

Why We Don't Quote Numbers Here

Welcome offers get refreshed, tested and occasionally paused, and the figures your mate saw last month might not match what's live today. Rather than print a number on this page that could go stale, we keep the exact match percentage, the maximum bonus amount and the spin count on the in-app promotions page, where it's updated in real time. That's also where you'll find the minimum deposit needed to qualify and any pokie-specific spin values.

What to Look for in the Terms

• Wagering requirement: how many times the bonus (or bonus plus deposit) needs to be played through before withdrawal
• Eligible games: which pokies or live tables count toward wagering, and at what contribution rate
• Time limit: how many days you have to clear the bonus and use free spins before they expire
• Maximum bet: a cap on stake size while a bonus is active, common across Australian-facing casinos
• Withdrawal cap: some offers limit how much bonus-derived winnings you can cash out

These conditions exist to keep the offer sustainable for both the casino and the player, and they're standard practice, not something unique to Stay Casino. The details live in our terms and conditions and are echoed on the promotions page itself, so you're never relying on memory.

Opting In and Making It Count

Most welcome packages need an active opt-in, either at registration or at the deposit screen. If you skip that step, your deposit lands as ordinary cash with no attached bonus, which some players actually prefer if they'd rather avoid wagering requirements altogether. There's no wrong choice here. It depends on whether you want the extra playing credit or a simpler, unrestricted balance.

If you do opt in, treat the free spins and bonus funds as a way to explore new pokies without spending extra of your own money, not as a shortcut to guaranteed winnings. No bonus structure changes the underlying odds of a pokie or a live table. Set a budget for the session regardless of any bonus attached to it.

Free Spins: A Few Practical Notes

Free spins are usually valued at a fixed amount per spin, meaning your winnings depend on the pokie's volatility and the bet value set by the casino, not your own stake size. They typically expire faster than deposit match bonus funds, often within a few days, so it pays to use them soon after they're credited rather than letting them sit.

Play Within Your Means

A welcome package is meant to extend your playing time, not to fund a betting strategy. Only players aged 18 and over may register or deposit at Stay Casino. If gambling stops being fun or starts affecting your finances, work or relationships, Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858, https://www.gamblinghelponline.org.au/) offers free, confidential support across Australia, and our responsible gaming page has tools to set deposit limits, time-outs or self-exclusion directly on your account.

For the full game library that free spins draw from, see Pokies and Games. To fund your account with PayID, POLi, cards or crypto, check Payments. Once you're ready to claim the current welcome package, head to Register and confirm the live offer on the promotions page after signup.
