See the offerBonus terms under the loupe
The value of a bonus sits in the wagering, not in the amount. An offer of €50 against 30x, then €1,500 must be turned over before anything can be withdrawn.

The Gaming Commission keeps one central exclusion register in EPIS: a single request is enough to stay out everywhere at once. Unlicensed sites are not connected to it. The bar has stood at 21 since 1 September 2024, lottery aside; only the National Lottery stays at 18. The bar is statutory, not a house rule.
