Betway lists welcome bonuses with 20 free spins or a 100% match and 50 free spins.

Checked against the Malta Gaming Authority register.

The match offers have different wagering requirements, so the amount you must wager depends on the offer. A separate deposit match up to C$300 + 50 bonus spins expires after 7 days and has a 16x bonus wagering requirement.


What welcome bonuses does Betway offer?

Betway lists three current welcome bonuses. Each has its own combination of spins, match and wagering terms:

  • A welcome bonus with 20 free spins.
  • A welcome bonus with a 100% match, 50 free spins and an x16 wagering requirement.
  • A welcome bonus with a 100% match, 50 free spins and an x50 wagering requirement.

A 100% match describes the relationship between the qualifying deposit and the bonus, subject to the offer’s conditions. The wagering multiplier affects how much play is required; it is not a percentage return.

How do deposits and account currency work?

Betway accounts in Canada use CAD, and the minimum deposit is C$10. A deposit adds money to your account; a deposit match is a separate promotional amount linked to a qualifying deposit.

A general account minimum and an offer’s qualifying deposit are different conditions. A match can also have a cap, so its percentage does not necessarily apply to the whole deposit.


Do you need a promo code?

No. Betway does not require a bonus code to claim its promotional offers.

In general, a promotion code identifies an offer when entered during the relevant sign-up or claim process. It does not replace the conditions attached to that offer.


How do wagering requirements work?

A wagering requirement is the amount of eligible play needed to satisfy a bonus condition. Wagering is turnover, not a guarantee that you will receive any money back.

Calculating wagering

A multiplier applied to a bonus determines the required turnover. For example, a requirement expressed as a multiple of the bonus uses the bonus amount as its starting point, not the balance remaining after play.

Each qualifying wager can count towards turnover, but wins and losses change the balance you have left to play with. Completing the required turnover is therefore different from retaining the bonus amount.

Game contribution

Promotions can count play on different games at different rates. A game with a reduced contribution adds less to wagering progress than the amount staked, while excluded play adds nothing.

Time limits also matter: a player can have remaining wagering progress when a promotion expires. Bonus conditions can distinguish between the bonus itself and winnings generated from it.


What happens before you can withdraw?

Betway requires you to meet wagering requirements before withdrawing a bonus or winnings associated with it. A withdrawal then goes through a pending period before it is sent for processing.

Bonus withdrawals

Finishing wagering is a condition for withdrawing the bonus or its associated winnings. The requirement concerns eligible wagering, not simply the amount deposited or the number of games opened.

Payment processing

The pending withdrawal period is up to 72 hours and may vary at weekends. Wherever possible, withdrawals are processed back to the payment method used to deposit on the account.

A withdrawal may appear as a single payment or in increments, depending on the payment option and withdrawal rules or requirements. A pending withdrawal and a payment being processed are separate stages.


How do free spins and promotion conditions work?

Free spins let you play spins without staking your own cash on each one. They do not guarantee a win, and winnings can be subject to promotion conditions.

Offers can limit the games on which spins work, the time allowed to use them and how resulting winnings are treated. Expiry can apply to a promotion even when some spins or wagering progress remain unused.

Promotion eligibility and bonus conditions serve different purposes: eligibility determines who can participate, while bonus conditions govern how the reward works. A deposit requirement, an expiry and a wagering requirement can each affect a different stage of the process.


What other promotions are offered?

Betway also lists sports and casino promotions. Their mechanics differ from a welcome deposit match:

  • Parlay Club: earn bonus bets by placing a C$25 wager with three or more legs at minimum odds of 3.00.
  • Sports boosts: enhanced odds across major North American sports, including NFL player props, NHL moneylines and soccer combination parlays.
  • Bet builder+: combine a same-game parlay bet builder with selections from other matches in one parlay with enhanced odds.
  • Betway Casino Club: opt in to earn more rewards as you wager more.

How can you set limits or take a break?

Betway provides tools for managing deposits, time and access to your account. A deposit limit controls deposits, while a session reminder prompts you to consider how long you have been playing.

Account closure and exclusion are ways to stop access to gambling; an activity statement helps you review account activity. You can also read about the Betway app for your phone.

It expires after 7 days.

What currency does a Canadian account use?

Betway accounts in Canada use CAD.

Can I withdraw bonus winnings immediately?

You need to meet the wagering requirements before withdrawing winnings associated with a bonus. A pending withdrawal period also applies before processing.

What does a wagering multiplier mean?

It sets the eligible turnover required in relation to the amount specified by the promotion. Wagering that amount does not guarantee a return.

No. A free spin can win or lose, and promotional conditions can apply to any winnings.
