The bonus
Progress
Wagering log
One line per session or game. Contribution is how much of each bet counts: slots are usually 100%, table games 10% or less, live casino often 0 to 10%.
Kept in this browser only, so you can close the page and pick up later. Nothing is sent anywhere. The casino's own counter always wins if the two disagree.

The wagering tracker keeps a running total of a bonus playthrough, so you’re not guessing how much is left. Set up the bonus once: £100 at 35× is £3,500 to wager. Then log each session. £1,000 on slots counts in full; £500 on blackjack at 10% counts as £50. The CasinoCalcs tracker shows the progress bar, what’s left at 100%, and the expected cost of finishing it. It’s free and it remembers your list in this browser.
Using the wagering tracker
Fill in the bonus box first: the bonus, the deposit if the wagering is on both, and the multiple. Then add a line per session, game or day, whatever matches how you play. Pick the contribution for each line. The figure in the last column is what actually counts.
Update “balance right now” whenever you check in, and the tracker estimates where you’ll end up if you finish the wagering at the RTP you’ve set.
Game contribution, the part that trips people up
Most bonus terms count slots at 100% and other games at a fraction. A common setup:
| Game | Typical contribution | £100 bet counts as |
|---|---|---|
| Most slots | 100% | £100 |
| Some slots (high RTP or jackpots) | 0 to 50% | £0 to £50 |
| Roulette and table games | 10 to 20% | £10 to £20 |
| Blackjack and video poker | 0 to 10% | £0 to £10 |
| Live casino | 0 to 10% | £0 to £10 |
So the low-edge games that look smart for clearing a bonus barely move the bar. That’s deliberate. Always check the terms of your bonus: these are typical numbers, not rules.
What finishing will cost
Every pound you wager costs its house edge on average. With £2,450 of wagering left on a 96% slot, the expected cost is £98. If your balance is £100, you’d expect to finish with about £2. Close to zero is normal for a big multiple, and it’s why a 35× bonus is worth so much less than its face value. The wagering requirement calculator works out that value before you take a bonus; the tracker follows it once you have.
Watch the max bet rule too. Most bonuses cap your stake, often at £5, while wagering. Breaking it can void the bonus. For bonuses where the bonus money is sticky, see the sticky bonus calculator, and if you’re running a bonus hunt, use the bonus hunt tracker.
You can walk away from a bonus. Forfeiting it is often cheaper than chasing it. BeGambleAware.org can help if wagering is taking over.
