A no-deposit bonus is a small promotional credit (cash or free spins) an online casino gives new players without requiring a deposit first. Typical values range from $10 to $50 in bonus cash, or 10–50 free spins on a specific slot.
Also known as: free play, free chip, free spins no deposit
No-deposit bonuses are marketing — designed to get you into the lobby. They almost always carry the highest wagering requirements (40x–60x is common) and the strictest max-cashout caps ($50–$100 regardless of how much bonus money you accumulate).
AGCO-registered Ontario operators are not generally permitted to run no-deposit cash bonuses under the current marketing-restriction regime; free-spin offers on specific games are sometimes allowed.
Read the terms before opting in. Many no-deposit bonuses void all winnings if you make a deposit before clearing the bonus, or require KYC verification before any cashout.
