1red bonus offers: what the welcome package demands in return

Start playing

1red runs a three-tier welcome structure that pays out over your first three deposits, with the headline offer – 100% up to €10,000 plus 100 free spins – landing on deposit one. The offer is live for players in the UK aged 18 and over (18+), subject to verification and the wagering conditions set out below. T&Cs apply. New customers only. Please gamble responsibly (BeGambleAware.org).

Every deposit into the package carries a 40x wagering requirement on the sum of the bonus and free-spin winnings, a €2 maximum bet while the bonus is active, and a seven-day window to clear it. Miss the window and the bonus, along with anything it paid out, is cancelled.

When a bonus costs more than it pays

Declining the welcome offer means your deposit stays yours – no wagering, no maximum bet, no cap on what you withdraw. Taking it locks that deposit and everything it wins behind a clearance condition that, for most players, never gets met.

The first-deposit package at 1red requires you to wager 40 times the combined value of the bonus and any winnings from the 100 free spins. Deposit €100, receive €100 as the bonus, win €50 from the spins: you now owe €6,000 in wagers before a withdrawal clears. At €2 per spin – the maximum bet allowed while the bonus is active – that is 3,000 spins, and the house edge ensures most of that money cycles back to the operator long before you reach the target.

Breaching the €2 stake cap at any point voids the bonus and every win attached to it. The seven-day expiry runs from the moment you activate the offer, not from the moment you deposit, so a day spent deciding costs you a day of clearance time.

Our welcome structure: three deposits, three codes

We offer a staged package across your first three deposits, each with its own activation code and its own set of limits. The headline offer sits at deposit one; the next two follow a descending scale.

Deposit Code Match Maximum Free Spins Wagering
First 1REDFTD 100% €10,000 100 (20/day, 5 days, "Olympus TRUEWAYS") 40x
Second 1RED75 75% €1,000 75 (25/day, 3 days, "Joker's Million") 40x
Third 1RED50 50% €500 50 (25/day, 2 days, "All-Star Fruits") 40x

The minimum deposit for any tier is €20. Free spins credit in daily instalments – 20 per day over five days for the first-deposit offer – and each batch carries its own 24-hour expiry. Winnings from free spins are capped at €1,000 for deposit one; winnings from the matched deposit bonus are capped at €5,000. Any amount above those ceilings is removed when the wagering clears.

You must activate a bonus within one day of it being issued, and you have seven days from activation to meet the wagering requirement. The code is entered at the deposit screen; no code means no bonus, and you cannot claim it retrospectively.

What runs week to week

Beyond the welcome tiers, we operate a daily cashback scheme that scales with deposit volume, a weekly 20% cashback for high-stakes players, and a Wednesday reload aimed at regular depositors.

  • Daily cashback up to 10%: Refunds a percentage of the previous day's real-money losses (00:00–23:59 UTC), calculated on a sliding scale from 5% for deposits of €20–€2,999 up to 10% for deposits of €20,000 or more. Minimum loss to qualify: €20. The cashback is capped at €10,000, carries a 3x wagering requirement, and credits daily at 01:00 UTC. You have three days to activate it and seven days to clear it.
  • Weekly 20% cashback: Available only to players who deposit €50,000 or more in a calendar week (Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59 UTC) and incur at least €1,000 in losses. The cashback is capped at €50,000, requires 3x wagering, and credits on Monday at 00:10 UTC. Activate within seven days; clear within seven days of activation.
  • Wednesday 20% cashback: A single-day variant that refunds 20% of losses incurred on Wednesday, capped at €5,000. Minimum deposit the previous day: €20; minimum loss: €20. Wagering 3x, credited Thursday at 01:00 UTC.
  • Weekend reload (code 7RED): 75% up to €10,000 plus 75 free spins (25 per day, three days, "Disco Party" by BGaming), available to players who made at least one deposit between Friday 00:00 and Sunday 23:59 UTC. Minimum deposit €50, wagering 40x, activate within three days, clear within seven.

Wednesday also carries a tiered free-spins offer – 30, 60 or 100 spins depending on deposit size – available to players who deposited at least once that week. Codes: SPIN30 (€20 minimum), SPIN60 (€27 minimum), SPIN100 (€33 minimum). Wagering on free-spin winnings: 40x. Game: "Bonanza Billion" by BGaming. Only one Spin Mania code may be activated per week.

The arithmetic of a 40x wagering requirement

Wagering is the total amount you must stake – not win, stake – before the bonus converts to withdrawable cash. At 1red that figure is 40 times the sum of the deposit bonus and any winnings from free spins attached to it.

Work through it with round numbers. You deposit €200 and claim the 100% first-deposit match, receiving €200 as the bonus. The 100 free spins pay out €80 in winnings. The wagering target is now 40 × (€200 + €80) = €11,200. That is the total you must wager, not the total you must win, and the house edge on slots – the game type that contributes 100% toward wagering – ensures the balance declines with every spin.

Table games contribute 5% of each stake toward the total. A €10 bet on blackjack counts as €0.50 of progress, so the same €11,200 target would require €224,000 in table-game wagers. Progressive jackpot slots and anything from the Amusnet provider are excluded entirely; a spin on either voids the bonus.

The €2 maximum bet is a hard ceiling. Stake €2.10 on a single spin and the bonus, along with every win it generated, is cancelled. The system does not warn you before it happens.

When the expiry bites

You have seven days from activation to meet the wagering requirement. The clock starts when you claim the offer, not when you deposit, so any delay in opting in costs you clearance time. If the seven days expire with wagering incomplete, the bonus and all winnings attached to it are removed, and only your original deposit – minus whatever you staked and lost – remains.

Free spins credit in daily instalments, and each batch expires 24 hours after it lands. The first-deposit package releases 20 spins per day over five days; if you do not use day three's spins within 24 hours, you lose them. Winnings from those spins still feed into the wagering calculation, but only if you played them before they expired.

What voids a bonus, and why you might choose to skip it

A bonus is disqualified if you breach the maximum bet, play an excluded game, or let the expiry window close before wagering is complete. It is also voided if the operator flags your account for bonus abuse, which is defined in the terms as a mathematical ratio: bonus funds making up 70% of total activity across five to nine deposits, or 50% across ten or more.

Winnings from a deposit bonus are capped at five times the deposit amount, up to €5,000. Deposit €500, clear the wagering, win €4,000: you withdraw €2,500 and the rest is cancelled. Winnings from deposit free spins are capped at five times the deposit amount, up to €1,000. That ceiling applies even if you met every other condition.

Declining the bonus means your deposit is yours from the moment it clears. No wagering, no maximum bet, no cap on winnings, no seven-day countdown. For a player who prefers higher stakes or longer sessions, the cost of accepting the offer – in locked funds, in restricted play, in forfeited winnings above the cap – often exceeds the value of the match itself.

Responsible play

A bonus is entertainment, not income, and the conditions attached to it are designed to restrict when and how you can access your own money. Set a deposit limit before you claim one, and if clearing the wagering starts to feel like work rather than play, it is worth stepping back.

We offer self-exclusion periods of 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 6 months, 1 year or indefinitely. You can request exclusion by contacting support, and permanent exclusion can be revoked in writing after a seven-day cooling-off period. For free, confidential support in the UK, contact GamCare on 0808 8020 133 (24/7) or visit gamcare.org.uk. BeGambleAware is available at begambleaware.org, and GamStop (gamstop.co.uk) provides free national self-exclusion across all UK-licensed sites.

Blocking software such as Gamban (gamban.com) and BetBlocker (betblocker.org) can prevent access across all devices. If you share a device with someone under 18, parental-control software such as Net Nanny or Qustodio adds a further layer of protection.

This site is for players aged 18 and over (18+). When gambling stops feeling like entertainment, free and confidential help is waiting at BeGambleAware.org.

Frequently asked questions

How do I claim the 1red welcome bonus?

Deposit at least €20, enter the code 1REDFTD at the deposit screen, and the 100% match up to €10,000 plus 100 free spins will credit to your account. You must activate the bonus within one day of it being issued and clear the 40x wagering requirement within seven days of activation.

What is the wagering requirement on the first deposit bonus?

The wagering requirement is 40 times the combined value of the deposit bonus and any winnings from the free spins. For example, a €100 deposit with a €100 bonus and €50 in free-spin winnings requires €6,000 in total wagers before you can withdraw.

What is the maximum bet I can place while the bonus is active?

The maximum bet is €2 per spin or hand while any welcome bonus is active. Staking more than €2 on a single bet voids the bonus and all winnings attached to it, with no warning beforehand.

Do the free spins from the welcome package expire?

Yes. The 100 free spins credit in daily instalments of 20 spins over five days, and each batch expires 24 hours after it is issued. If you do not use a day's allocation within that window, those spins are lost.
