As you may have gathered by now your free spins are not really free. Usually, any winnings you receive via your free spins will be paid out as bonus money. Bonus money can be converted to real cash, as long as you meet what are known as ‘wagering requirements'.

A typical requirement may be ‘50x free spins winnings'. In this case, say if you won £10 by using your free spins you would have to wager £500 of your own money in order to cash out your bonus money, as £500 is 50 times £10.
