• 1st deposit: 100% up to €2,000, plus 50 free spins
• 2nd deposit: 50% up to €1,000, plus 100 free spins
• 3rd deposit: 150% up to €4,000, plus 200 free spins

The bonus has to be picked from the deposit menu before paying in, and the funds and spins are credited as soon as the qualifying deposit goes through. All three bonuses must be claimed within 30 days of registration, and any part left unclaimed after that expires. Bonus funds are wagered 35x before a withdrawal, and free spin winnings land as bonus funds under the same 35x rule. Each bonus gives 7 days to complete its wagering, and spins left unused expire 7 days after they arrive.

What can be withdrawn from bonus funds, spins included, stops at €2,000, and anything above it is forfeited when the withdrawal is made. The general bonus terms add a conversion ceiling of 10 times the bonus amount, a €5 limit per round while playing with bonus funds, and a ban on feature buys with bonus money. Real money is played before bonus funds, a bonus falls away once it drops below €0.10, and unused bonuses are cancelled when a withdrawal is requested. Slots count 100% towards wagering, live game shows 20%, blackjack, roulette and baccarat 10%, and dice, bingo, arcade, crash, scratch and other games 0%, and a list of excluded games also applies. Only one welcome package is allowed for each player, household, IP address or device, and the offer is not available to residents of Finland.

Cashback Mondays, Weekend Boost and Lootbox Mondays

• Cashback Mondays: real-money play from Monday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59 CET/CEST is worked out as deposits minus withdrawals minus the account balance, and the cashback is credited automatically every Monday. Only real-money bets count, bonus bets are left out, and the cashback is paid in real money with no wagering. Its rate and its cap follow the ShakeClub level, from up to 2% (€25) at Bronze to up to 20% at Mega.
• Weekend Boost: a reload with free spins from Friday to Sunday. Its terms are not published, and the details are shown to logged-in players.
• Lootbox Mondays: every Monday between 00:00 and 23:59 UTC, a Lootbox appears in the gamification widget and is opened by hand. One can be claimed per player each Monday, at least 1 deposit is needed to take part, and the reward stays undisclosed until it is opened, then remains valid for a limited time once claimed.
