I have seen similar bonuses, they are usually for new users who have never made a deposit, they usually have wagering requirements from 35 to 50x, and they also usually have a withdrawal limit (5x the bonus received) and to unlock the winnings some ask for a deposit clean, yes, very strange bonuses, a no deposit bonus is usually that: credits to play without first having made a deposit to receive the aforementioned bonus, but as a requirement to unlock the winnings you have to deposit, another type of no deposit bonus is usually free spins, some with wagering requirements and others without any wagering requirements. I personally almost never take bonuses unless they are rakeback, cashback or free spins for deposits (all without wagering requirements), all other bonuses are usually very bad and with requirements almost impossible to meet
Who came up with the brilliant and inexplicable idea of giving bonuses without a deposit... When the first requirement they ask for is a DEPOSIT...???

It depends on the conditions. Some no-deposit bonuses are marked as "play now - deposit later". First, you play, and if you like the amount won, you CAN deposit to start wagering the winnings. You don't have to, however. Not the ideal kind of bonus if you ask me. 🙂 Others are no deposit bonuses as well, BUT in order to withdraw, you must make a minimum deposit to verify your payment option in the casino - it is a technical requirement and has nothing to do with the bonus.
Always read the terms. If you are unsure - ask the casino chat or support.

I'd say I answered your question. For now, I'd like to give you a good hint by mentioning the free Advanced Insights: Online Casino Bonuses course 🙂.
Play now, deposit later means you take the free offer and play immediately. If you manage to win a decent sum, you can deposit to start the wagering. If you don't win anything, it wouldn't make sense to deposit while this bonus is active. Meaning, you should let your free balance drop to zero. It's a free balance - no harm done.

Hello, I think we have quite a few of them I would say. As far as sports betting is concerned, we don't deal with that area so unfortunately you probably won't find much there.
Anyway, do you use the bonuses often? Do you feel that they are useful? What casinos do you play in? 🙂
