A reload bonus is, on the page, a small offer. The number says “100% up to £100” or “10 free spins a week”, and the marketing writes itself. The audit of what an offer costs lives elsewhere — in the wagering multiple, the eligible games, the validity window, the cashout cap, and the small line about what you actually get to keep. This page is about that second ledger, and about a UK market that, from 19 January 2026, has the kind of hard cap that turns “any number” into “ten times, no more”. What follows compares ten UKGC-licensed operators on the terms they publish, walks the small print that decides the real value, and lands on a verdict about which offers survive the new rules.

What a reload bonus is — and the repeat-offer terms that decide its value

A reload bonus is a repeat offer: a deposit match, a free-spin package, or a small credit that an existing customer can claim after their welcome offer is spent. It is defined by cadence, not size. A casino that hands out 10 free spins every Thursday to players who wagered £20 in the window is running a reload, even though the headline number — 10 spins at 10p — is small. A casino that hands out a one-off 100% match after a £20 deposit is also running a reload, on a different cadence. The word covers anything recurring or second-chance; the size is what the marketing writes on the sign.

A reload bonus vs a welcome bonus: the difference that matters

A welcome bonus is a first-time offer. It fires once, on the first deposit, and is usually the largest credit the operator will ever extend to that account. A reload fires afterwards — week after week, on a chosen day, on a recurring promotional schedule, or whenever the operator decides to put one in front of an existing customer. The welcome is a sign-on cost; the reload is a retention cost. The two share a structure (a trigger, a credit, wagering, a cashout) but a player who treats them as the same offer misses the point: the reload is the offer you judge over months, the welcome is the offer you judge once. From 19 January 2026, both sit under the same 10x wagering cap, which is why a UK comparison now treats them as a single family of bonuses with different cadences.

How a reload bonus works, step by step

• The player deposits the qualifying amount (or opts in, where the offer is opt-in) and the bonus is credited — either as bonus funds, free spins, or a hybrid.
• The bonus lands under a separate balance from real cash and carries its own wagering requirement, which is the number of times the bonus must be played through before any winnings become withdrawable.
• Play is restricted to eligible games (almost always a slot list, almost never live casino under the new rules), and a clock starts — typically seven to ninety days — after which an uncleared bonus is forfeit.
• Once wagering is met, any remaining bonus-derived winnings move into the cash balance up to a stated cap; beyond the cap, the bonus side of the balance disappears.

UK reload bonus landscape: what the licensed market actually offers

The UK licensed market changed shape in 2026. From 19 January 2026, the Gambling Commission capped bonus wagering at ten times the bonus amount for any UK-licensed casino promotion, and on the same day banned mixed-product promotions — the kind of “deposit £20, get a casino bonus plus a free bet on sport” cross-sell that used to be a standard sign-up. The reload market that follows is narrower: a single product, a single wagering ladder, a single eligibility list. The number of offers has not dropped; the shape of each one has. A weekly reload at a UK-licensed site is now a slot-only offer with a known cap, not a multi-product bundle.

Wagering requirements and T&Cs: the small print that sets the value

The wagering requirement is the multiplier applied to the bonus before withdrawal — 10x on every UK-licensed promotion after 19 January 2026, and historically much higher. A £100 bonus at 10x means £1,000 must be wagered before the winnings become withdrawable. Validity windows sit beside it: the 888casino welcome promotion gives 90 days to clear its bonus; Betfred’s free-spin package gives 7 days. Eligible games usually mean selected slots and almost never live casino. Max cashout caps the upside — 888casino caps winnings from its bonus at £100, BetVictor on its £30 bonus funds caps the bonus withdrawal at £300. Two offers with the same headline can finish miles apart once these levers are pulled.

Deposit and match mechanics: how the percentage actually works

A “100% match” means the operator credits the same amount again as the player deposits, up to a stated cap. A £50 deposit on a 100% up to £100 offer lands £50 of bonus funds; a £150 deposit on the same offer still lands only £100, because the cap binds. The match percentage is the headline, the cap is the ceiling, and the minimum deposit — usually £10 — is the floor under which nothing fires. At 888casino, the first-time deposit must be £10 or more to trigger the 100% match; deposit £9.99 and the offer does not credit. Read the cap before you read the percentage: a “100% match” with a £20 cap is functionally a £20 bonus, whatever the banner says.

Percentages, caps and minimum deposits on UK reloads

The headline number on a UK reload is almost always a match percentage (50%, 100%, sometimes 200% on small deposits) bound by a bonus cap and a minimum deposit. The cap is the actual ceiling on what you can take from the offer; the minimum is the actual floor on what triggers it. The percentage tells you the slope between those two. A 100% up to £100 offer, taken at the £100 deposit, returns the deposit plus £100 of bonus funds; taken at the £30 deposit, returns the deposit plus £30. The cap binds at higher deposits, the minimum at lower ones, and the percentage is the line between them.

Reload codes, weekly deals and free spins: what really recurs

The reload market is a repeat-offer market, which is why the search landscape for this term clusters around weekly cadences, opt-in mechanics and recurring free-spin packages. “Reload bonus code” remains a frequent search even when the offers they gated have largely moved to opt-in or deposit-triggered formats. The result is a UK reload landscape where the cadence — weekly, daily, sign-in — matters as much as the headline number.

Weekly reload offers and recurring promotions

A weekly reload in the UK licensed market is a small, repeating free-spin or bonus-credit package tied to a four-day or seven-day window. The clearest example in the researched set is BetMGM UK’s Weekly Residency: 10 free spins at 10p each on a featured weekly slot, opt-in plus £20 wagered on eligible games between Monday 00:01 and Thursday 23:59, claimed by Thursday 23:59, with a 1-day expiry on the reward itself. That is the shape of a UK weekly reload: small value, hard window, opt-in trigger. The cadence is the offer; the size is the line at the bottom.

Casino reload deals vs standard bonuses

A reload deal is recurring and conditional on a deposit or a stake threshold in a set window. A standard welcome bonus is a one-shot on first deposit and is the largest credit the account will see. The two sit under the same 10x cap, the same eligibility rules, the same cashout ceiling. The reload is the offer a player judges over months — small, repeatable, low-friction. The welcome is the offer a player judges once and moves on. Treating them as the same number is the commonest reading error on this subject.

Crypto and bitcoin reload bonuses in the UK

A GB licence is compulsory at the point of consumption for any operator serving GB customers, and the licensed operators in the researched set do not publish bitcoin or crypto-denominated reload terms in their UK-licensed bonus pages. This run captured no verified UK-licensed crypto reload terms, and an offer from an unlicensed site forfeits the protections a UKGC licence provides — GAMSTOP enrolment, ADR routes, identity-verified play, and the 10x cap itself. For a UK reader, “crypto reload bonus” is not a category with verified terms to compare; it is a category where the licence is the first question and the answer is usually no.

How to claim a reload offer

• Find the offer in the promotions tab or the email the operator sends to existing customers.
• Read the small print before depositing: the wagering multiple, the eligible games, the validity window, the max cashout.
• Trigger the offer — deposit the qualifying amount, opt in via the button, or meet the stake threshold in the stated window.
• Play eligible games until the wagering requirement is met, then withdraw any bonus-derived cash up to the stated cap.

Which UK casinos offer reload bonuses? 10 operators ranked on what they actually publish

The table below compares ten UKGC-licensed operators on the offer terms their own pages or review coverage publish. Licence status is verified against the Gambling Commission’s public register of gambling businesses, updated 29 July 2026. Eight of the ten carry a fully-specified offer in the research; two carry licence status only and flag the missing offer terms. Cells the research does not cover take an em dash. The wagering column and the validity column are sparse on purpose — only the offers that publish those terms get a value.

The shape of the table is the shape of the UK reload market in 2026. Every operator is licensed; their offers are not interchangeable. The free-spin-led operators (Betfred, Sky Vegas, Paddy Power Games) publish zero wagering on the spins and a short validity. The bonus-led operator (888casino) publishes a 10x wagering ladder with a 90-day window and a £100 cap on bonus-derived winnings. BetVictor splits the difference with a small bonus plus 50 free spins. BetMGM runs a recurring weekly residency, the only one in the set that is unambiguously a reload cadence rather than a welcome.

BetMGM UK: the one clear weekly reload in the set

BetMGM UK runs a Weekly Residency promotion: 10 free spins at 10p each on a featured weekly slot, opt-in plus £20 wagered on eligible games between Monday 00:01 and Thursday 23:59, with the reward claimed by Thursday 23:59 and a 1-day expiry once credited. The wagering requirement on the spins is not stated in the sourced material, which is the kind of detail a reader should confirm in the offer’s small print before opting in. The cadence is the offer — a recurring weekly slot residency — and it is the only operator in the set whose published terms read as a reload rather than a welcome. BetMGM’s Weekly Residency offers the most reliable weekly rhythm for players who prefer cadence over headline size.

888casino: the 100% match that shows the 10x cap in action

888casino’s welcome promotion is the page’s worked example for two reasons: it is the only offer in the researched set with a fully-specified match percentage, and it lands squarely under the 10x cap that took effect on 19 January 2026. The headline reads “100% up to £100” — match the deposit, capped at £100, triggered by a first-time deposit of £10 or more. Wagering is 10x on selected slots, the validity window is 90 days, and winnings from the bonus are capped at £100. The arithmetic of clearing a £100 bonus at 10x on Book of Dead (RTP 96.21%) is an expected loss of about £37.90 — £1,000 of required turnover multiplied by (1 − 0.9621). That is what a “100% match” actually costs the player who clears it, before the £100 cap on bonus-derived winnings removes the upside above that line.

BetVictor: the £30 match with a stated £300 withdrawal ceiling

BetVictor’s welcome package is a £30 casino bonus plus 50 free spins on Fishin’ Frenzy. The bonus funds carry 10x wagering and a stated £300 maximum withdrawal; the free spins carry no wagering on their winnings. The validity window on the bonus is 30 days. The £300 cap is unusually generous against the rest of the set — it lets a player keep a meaningful upside off a small bonus — and the £30 stake is small enough that the bonus clears quickly against a slot run. BetVictor’s package serves as a balanced entry-point for those seeking both bonus funds and free spins without the complexity of a high-wagering match.

Sky Vegas: a two-part free-spin offer with a £10 trigger

Sky Vegas runs a two-part welcome: 50 no-deposit free spins on registration, plus a further 200 free spins after depositing and spending £10. The free-spin winnings carry no wagering, the free-spin expiry is 7 days, and the staking window to qualify for the second 200 is 30 days. The split is what makes the offer: a deposit-free first tranche that lets a player test the casino before staking, then a deposit-and-spend trigger for the larger batch. Sky Vegas’s two-tier approach is arguably the most transparent for anyone wanting to test the casino before committing to a deposit.

Betfred: 200 spins with no wagering on winnings

Betfred’s welcome promotion is up to 200 free spins with no wagering requirement on the winnings. The spins credit within 48 hours of the qualifying stake and are valid for 7 days. The wagering column is “0x” because the operator publishes it as a no-wagering offer on the free-spin side; that is the lever most of the free-spin-led offers in the table share. The 48-hour credit window and the 7-day expiry are the small print a player reads before staking.

Paddy Power Games: 160 spins and 0x wagering

Paddy Power Games runs a 160-spin welcome — 60 spins on registration with no deposit, then 100 spins on a £10 deposit. Wagering on the free spins is shown as 0x, and the validity is 7 days. The two-part structure mirrors Sky Vegas’s at a slightly different count, and the no-wagering flag on the spins puts it in the same family as Betfred and Sky Vegas. Paddy Power’s model provides a straightforward, no-wagering alternative that aligns closely with other leading free-spin promos.

Betfair: 150 spins split between two deposit legs

Betfair runs 150 free spins — 50 no-deposit on registration plus 100 on a £10 deposit. The wagering requirement is not captured in the sourced material this run, which is the kind of gap a reader closes by reading the offer’s small print directly. The split mirrors Sky Vegas and Paddy Power at a lower spin count, and the licence status is the same Active entry on the UKGC register. Where Betfair sits apart is the unstated wagering — it is the operator in the free-spin cluster whose terms the research does not finish.

Virgin Games: a rotating offer with no traditional reload match

Virgin Games publishes 30 free spins or a £50 bingo bonus as the offer variant; the wagering on the package is not captured in this run, and the offer does not read as a traditional reload-match structure. The licence status is Active on the UKGC register, dated 29 July 2026. The point of including Virgin Games in the comparison is that it shows the alternative shape a UK reload can take: a rotating offer between slots and bingo, with no fixed match percentage. For a reader deciding between a match-based reload and a rotating personalised offer, Virgin Games is the comparison point.

Ladbrokes: licensed, with offer terms not published

Ladbrokes is on the UKGC public register as Active, updated 29 July 2026, but the welcome and reload terms in the research did not capture the headline percentage, the wagering multiple, the validity window, or the maximum cashout. The offer is deposit-triggered in review coverage, which is consistent with the rest of the UK licensed market but is not enough to rank on. The licence is solid; the offer detail is the gap.

Coral: active on the register, offer details not captured

Coral sits on the UKGC public register as Active on the same 29 July 2026 update, with welcome and reload terms not captured in the research this run. As with Ladbrokes, the licence is the verifiable part; the offer detail is the part a reader closes by reading the promotions page directly. Coral and Ladbrokes sit on the table as licensed operators whose published terms the research does not finish, which is itself a finding — two of the ten largest UK brands do not publish a headline reload offer that the comparison can rank on.

Slot reload bonuses: only two titles carry a verified RTP

A reload bonus on slots is a wagering-heavy offer on a narrow eligible-games list, with the house edge of the slot doing most of the work on the player’s side. The UK licensed market does not publish reload-specific RTP tables; the slot’s RTP is a property of the title, not the offer. Two titles in the research carry a verified RTP — Book of Dead and Big Bass Bonanza — and the rest of the eligible-games list takes the no-data marker. The table is short on purpose.

The two RTPs sit close together; the volatility and the max win do not. Book of Dead is a high-volatility title at a 5,000x ceiling, Big Bass Bonanza a medium-to-high volatility title at a 2,100x ceiling. The wagering-clearance arithmetic that follows uses Book of Dead’s 96.21% as the worked example because that is the figure the calculation input names, and Big Bass Bonanza’s 96.71% sits beside it as a close substitute a UK reload reader will recognise from the eligible-games list.

Slot reload bonuses explained

A slot reload bonus credits bonus funds or free spins that can be played only on a defined slot list. The wagering requirement applies to the bonus, the eligible-games list applies to the play, and the cashout cap applies to the winnings. From 19 January 2026, no UK-licensed reload can carry wagering above 10x, and a mixed-product offer that combines slots with live casino or table games is banned. Slot reloads are now the dominant UK reload format because they are the only product the new rules allow a bonus to be tied to without crossing the mixed-product line.

The two slot titles with a verified RTP

Book of Dead is a Play’n GO title at 96.21% RTP, High volatility, with a 5,000x maximum win. Big Bass Bonanza is a Pragmatic Play title at 96.71% RTP, Medium–High volatility, with a 2,100x maximum win. Both appear frequently on UK eligible-games lists for bonus wagering; both are old enough to be standard references in reload reviews. The rest of the eligible-games list is not covered in the research and the table stops at two — adding a third row without a verified RTP would smuggle in a fabricated figure.

Table game and live casino reloads

From 19 January 2026, mixed-product promotions are banned at UK-licensed casinos, which means a reload that conditions a casino bonus on playing live casino or table games is no longer a permitted structure. Slot reloads are the surviving reload format; live casino and table-game reloads, where they exist at all, exist as separate offers rather than as cross-product bundles. A reader comparing offers will see the slot list dominate the small print, because the slot list is now the only list the bonus can be tied to without breaching the mixed-product ban.

Game-specific vs general reloads

A game-specific reload ties the bonus to one or two titles — a “Book of Dead reload”, a “Big Bass Bonanza Friday” — and the wagering clears on those games only. A general reload credits bonus funds that can be played on a wider eligible-games list, almost always slots. The 888casino welcome’s 10x wagering is on “selected slots”, which is the game-specific end of the spectrum; a wider reload on a longer eligible list is rarer in the researched set. The value of the offer is roughly the same on either structure; the player experience is not, because a one-title offer concentrates variance into one slot’s volatility profile.

The UKGC 2026 rules: the 10x wagering cap and what they ban

The UK reload market in 2026 sits inside a regulatory frame drawn by the Gambling Act 2005, extended to remote operators serving Great Britain by the Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014. The Gambling Commission is the regulator. A GB licence is compulsory at the point of consumption for any operator serving GB customers, which is why every operator in the comparison table above carries the same “Active” status against the Commission’s public register.

The two changes that bound the reload market directly are the 10x wagering cap and the mixed-product ban, both in force from 19 January 2026. The Commission’s own rationale — “Capping the wagering requirement to ten decreases the likelihood of harm, reduces complexity, and improves transparency while maintaining consumer choice” — frames the cap as a harm-reduction lever rather than a pricing lever, but the practical effect is the same: the wagering ladder that once ran to 40x or 50x now stops at 10x across the licensed market.

UKGC licensing and reload bonus rules

The statutory frame around UK reload bonuses is the Gambling Act 2005 and its 2014 extension to remote operators, enforced by the Gambling Commission through the Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP). A GB licence is required at the point of consumption, which means an offshore site serving GB customers without a GB licence is operating outside the frame the table above draws. The 10x cap and the mixed-product ban sit inside that frame as bonus conditions; the age-banded slot stake caps sit inside it as product conditions; the deposit-limit rules sit inside it as player-protection conditions.

GamStop and self-exclusion

GAMSTOP is the UK’s national online self-exclusion scheme, mandatory for every GB-licensed online operator since 31 March 2020. A player can exclude for six months, one year, five years, or for five years with auto-renewal, and the exclusion cannot be ended early. Once enrolled with one operator, the exclusion applies across every GB-licensed online operator, which is why a self-excluded player cannot claim a reload from any site on the comparison table above — the offer does not appear. The exclusion is the most powerful player-protection tool on the page, and it is the lever a reader reaches for when the offers in the table above stop being the question.

CAP and ASA advertising standards for bonus promos

The Committees of Advertising Practice (CAP and BCAP) write the rules that govern how a UK-licensed casino can advertise a bonus, and the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) enforces them. From 1 October 2022, a gambling ad must not have strong appeal to under-18s, and no one who is or appears under 25 may be shown gambling or play a significant role in a gambling ad. For reload promos, the practical effect is that the headline “100% up to £100” must travel with the wagering multiple, the validity window and the eligibility list in any ad that quotes the headline — the ASA treats a bonus headline without its small print as misleading by omission. The reload offer on a UK licensed site is therefore marketed in a more constrained shape than its offshore equivalent.

Claiming reloads without harm: the limits, tools and the 24-hour helpline

A UK reload offer arrives weekly, monthly, or on a recurring promotional cadence — and so do the deposit limits that bound it. From 31 October 2025, operators must prompt a customer to set a financial limit before their first deposit and action any decrease immediately. From 30 September 2026, only a gross deposit limit may be called a “deposit limit”, and operators must block further deposits when the limit is reached. The reload offer and the deposit limit run on the same clock, which is the design: a recurring offer cannot outrun a recurring limit.

The deposit controls that keep weekly reloads in check

From 30 September 2026, a UK-licensed operator must use a gross deposit limit — money paid into the account over a set period — as the only kind of limit that can be called a “deposit limit”. When the customer reaches that limit, the operator blocks further deposits until the period resets or the customer acts to raise the limit. The earlier rule, in force from 31 October 2025, requires the operator to prompt a financial limit before the first deposit and to action a decrease immediately. For a reader claiming a weekly reload, the limit is the line under which the offer sits, and the gross-deposit framing makes sure the line counts only what the player pays in — not net of withdrawals, not credited bonus funds.

Time-outs and reality checks

Time-out and reality check are native UK player-protection terms. A time-out is a short exclusion the player sets themselves — 24 hours, 48 hours, a week — and a reality check is a pop-up reminder of session length at a chosen interval. Both sit beneath the longer GAMSTOP exclusion as tools the reader can use without committing to a six-month minimum. For a weekly reload cadence, a time-out across the trigger window is enough to skip a single offer without losing the account.

Self-exclusion tools

GAMSTOP runs the national online self-exclusion scheme, with periods of six months, one year, five years, or five years with auto-renewal, and the exclusion cannot be ended early once chosen. GamCare runs the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, “available 24 hours a day, every day of the year – completely free of charge”, with webchat, WhatsApp and email routes alongside the phone line. NHS gambling-harm clinics and Gamblers Anonymous sit alongside GamCare and GambleAware as further support organisations named in the Commission’s guidance. For a reader who has decided that the weekly reload cadence is the wrong cadence, the helpline is the first number to call.

How we chose and ranked these 10 operators

The ten operators were drawn from the UKGC-licensed set for bonus prominence and recurring-offer coverage, and checked against the Commission’s public register of gambling businesses (updated 29 July 2026). Licence status is verified against that register; offer terms are sourced to operators and review coverage, with the wagering multiple, validity window, and maximum cashout taken from the published offer where available. Two operators — Ladbrokes and Coral — sit on the table with licence status only, because the welcome and reload terms in this run did not capture a headline percentage, a wagering multiple, or a cashout. The ranking is qualitative: a fully-specified offer ranks above a partly-specified one; a reload cadence ranks above a welcome-only cadence where both exist. No weight was invented beyond what the published terms carry, and the operator with the largest offer on the page does not necessarily rank first.

What to actually do about UK reload bonuses in 2026

The 10x wagering cap that took effect on 19 January 2026 is the single biggest change to the UK reload market in years, and it changes the offer’s value in one direction only — down. A 100% match at 10x, taken to its £100 cap and cleared on Book of Dead at 96.21% RTP, costs the player who clears it about £37.90 in expected loss. The same offer at the old 40x would have cost four times that, and a player who treated the headline percentage as the price would have been off by a factor of four. The 10x cap puts a ceiling on what an offer can take; the eligibility list and the cashout cap put a ceiling on what an offer can give back; the deposit limit puts a ceiling on what the player can put in.

The verdict from the page’s figures is this. A UK-licensed reload bonus in 2026 is worth claiming when the wagering is zero, the cashout cap is meaningful, and the eligibility list is short and known. That is the Betfred / Sky Vegas / Paddy Power Games / BetVictor (free-spin side) end of the comparison table — the free-spin offers that publish zero wagering and a short validity, and that pay out as cash on completion. It is not worth chasing as a percentage match on bonus funds unless the player reads the small print — the wagering, the cashout cap, the eligible-games list — before depositing. The 888casino welcome is a worked example of how the small print changes the answer: the percentage is generous, the cap is small, the wagering ladder is short, and the net is somewhere between fair and modest. The BetMGM Weekly Residency is a different shape — small, recurring, opt-in — and the value lives in the cadence rather than the size.

For a UK reader, the safer pattern is to claim the no-wagering free-spin offers where they exist, read the small print on any match offer before depositing, set a gross deposit limit that the weekly cadence cannot outrun, and use GAMSTOP or GamCare’s 24-hour helpline (0808 8020 133) the moment the cadence stops being a choice. The licensed market has the strongest player-protection frame it has ever had in 2026, and the frame is what the reload offer sits inside.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a legal ceiling on UK reload bonus wagering in 2026?

Yes. From 19 January 2026, the Gambling Commission caps bonus wagering at ten times the bonus amount for any UK-licensed casino promotion. Every operator on the comparison table above sits under that cap.

What is the maximum cashout on a UK casino reload bonus?

It depends on the offer. The 888casino welcome caps bonus-derived winnings at £100; the BetVictor £30 bonus funds cap sits at £300. Free-spin offers with zero wagering usually carry no stated cashout cap beyond the spin value.

Are free spins from reload offers subject to wagering requirements?

The researched free-spin offers at Betfred, Sky Vegas and Paddy Power Games publish zero wagering on free-spin winnings, with the winnings paid as cash. BetVictor’s 50 free spins on Fishin’ Frenzy carry no wagering on the spin side.

What deposit limits apply if I claim recurring reload offers?

From 30 September 2026, only a gross deposit limit may be called a “deposit limit”, and operators must block further deposits when the limit is reached. From 31 October 2025, the operator must prompt for a limit before the first deposit.

Is a reload bonus worth it under the UK’s 10x wagering cap?

The 10x cap reduces the cost of clearing a bonus, which improves the value of every match offer in the licensed market. The cashout cap and the eligibility list decide the rest. A no-wagering free-spin offer reads as worth claiming; a 100% match with a small cashout cap is worth claiming only after reading the small print.

Do UK casinos still use reload bonus codes?

Among the ten UK-licensed operators researched for this page, none of the sourced offers is gated by a printed promo code this run. Each is either deposit-triggered (the offer credits once a qualifying deposit is made), stake-triggered (the offer credits once a qualifying amount has been wagered in a window), or opt-in (the player presses a button in the promotions tab before the qualifying action). The shift is a UKGC-friendly one: codes tend to invite abuse through affiliate channels, and the move to deposit or opt-in triggers makes the qualifying event auditable. For a reader, the practical change is that the reload is now something you claim by playing, not something you copy from a coupon site. If an offer on a UK-licensed site does carry a code, treat it as the exception, not the rule.
