Free spins at new UK casinos

100 Median free spins in the welcome offers of casinos founded 2024–2026

Free spins are the most common welcome offer at new UK casinos: a set number of spins on named slots at a fixed stake, usually 10p or 20p.

What they are worth depends on the spin value, the slot's RTP and the wagering on winnings, now capped at 10 times. The number of spins in the headline says little on its own.

Short answer

How much are free spins worth?

Number of spins × spin value × RTP, before wagering. 100 spins at 10p on a 96% slot are worth about £9.60 on average; 50 spins at 20p are worth the same. Wagering of up to 10 times on the winnings and any cash-out cap bring that down.

Worksheet

What a no-deposit offer is worth after wagering

Example terms

Set the spins and their value from the offer's terms, and the wagering on winnings, up to the UK cap of 10x.

Pattern Doubling the spin value is worth as much as doubling the number of spins. Compare offers by total stake, not by the number in the headline.

What is a no-deposit offer worth?

Worksheet
Average winnings £4.80
To wager £48.00
Expected cost £1.92
Expected cash-out £2.88

50 spins at £0.10 win about £4.80 on average. Wagering that 10 times means betting £48.00, which costs about £1.92; on average £2.88 is left to cash out.

Terms that decide a free spins offer

General explanation

Value

Spin stake

Usually 10p or 20p. It sets what each spin is worth.

Slots

Named games

Spins are tied to one or a few slots. Check the RTP in the game's information screen.

Wagering

On the winnings

Up to 10 times at a UK-licensed casino, and sometimes none at all.

Expiry

Use them in time

Unused spins usually expire within a few days of being credited.

In depth

Free spins and the UK rules

Free spins at a UK-licensed casino follow the same rules as any bonus: wagering of no more than 10 times on what they win, and no offer that also requires a sports bet. The slot itself must follow the UK game design rules, with spins of at least 2.5 seconds and no autoplay.

Spread over days

Larger packs are often credited in batches, such as 20 spins a day for five days. That keeps you coming back, so decide in advance whether you will use them all. Our guide on how to find and claim bonuses covers the steps.

Questions

Free spins: questions

Are free spins really free?

Most come with a deposit, and winnings usually carry wagering and sometimes a cash-out cap. No deposit spins exist but are smaller.

What is a typical free spin worth?

10p or 20p of stake. At 96% RTP a 10p spin returns about 9.6p on average.

Do free spins winnings have wagering?

Often, up to 10 times at a UK-licensed casino. Some offers have no wagering at all.

Can I choose which slot to use them on?

Rarely. The terms name the slot or a short list.

Do the UK stake limits matter for free spins?

Free spins run at a fixed stake well below the £5 limit, but once you play with the winnings, the limit applies to each spin.

Responsible gaming

Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun

These rules apply on every page of this site. A young casino has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.

18+ only

Adults only, everywhere

You must be 18 or older. A licensed casino must check your age and identity before you can deposit or play, so have your ID ready when you register.
