5. Bonus Terms and Wagering Requirements

Bonus funds are subject to specific wagering requirements before they can be withdrawn as cash. These requirements are clearly stated in the promotional terms for each offer. We encourage players to read these terms carefully.

The misuse of bonuses—such as «bonus hunting» or placing wagers that exploit promotional structures—is strictly prohibited. PokerStars Casino reserves the right to void any winnings derived from such activities.
