Chapter I · The top story

The welcome offer in four stages

Each of your first four deposits opens a bonus of its own. Taken together they come to 325% and up to NZ$10,000, with 400 free spins as well.

A code goes with every stage and has to be typed into your profile before you pay. Once the deposit has been booked, a bonus can no longer be added. Only one bonus runs at a time, deposit bonuses don't add together, and any bonus you haven't started wagering can be dropped without touching your own money.

If you drop the cash part of a stage, the spin batches still to come for that stage are lost with it. A new bonus can't begin while an old one is live, so the earlier one needs finishing or cancelling first.

Seasonal promotions are brief and sit on their own pages. The calendar above is the standard one.

For bonus wagering, pokies count in full (jackpot pokies and a short list of excluded titles aside), and every other category counts for 5%.

Live games count 5% toward wagering, so treat them as a way to play, not a way to clear a bonus.

Chapter III-c · Instant games

Short rounds, quick results

Crash, mines, plinko, dice and goal games run in seconds. You choose a stake, watch the number climb or the board open, and cash out before it fails.

The round starts, the multiplier climbsCash out hereCrash: the round has ended

Aviator and the chicken-themed crash and plinko games see the most play, with Aviamasters, Goose Boom Bang!, Mines and Limbo-style titles close behind. Rounds are brief, so set a budget first and keep an eye on the total.

Instant games count 5% toward wagering, and a few, such as plinko variants, are excluded altogether. The published exclusion list has the last word.

Chapter IV · The prize tables

Five prize pools and a local race

Play the pokies you already enjoy and the leaderboard moves by itself. Every real-money spin at or above the minimum stake earns points.

  • Drops & WinsPragmatic PlayNZ$50M
  • Spin ExpressGamzixNZ$2M
  • Lucky RacesnetworkNZ$5M
  • Book of BillionairenetworkNZ$3M
  • SpinoleagueSpinomenalNZ$24M

Pool sizes below are those shown on the New Zealand site, in New Zealand dollars. Each ring sets one pool against the largest.

NetworkPool (NZD)
Drops & WinsNZ$50,000,000
Spin ExpressNZ$2,000,000
Lucky RacesNZ$5,000,000
Book of BillionaireNZ$3,000,000
SpinoleagueNZ$24,000,000

Pools can change at any time, so confirm the current amount on the casino's tournaments page.

How the local race works

Alongside the networks you will usually find a local tournament, for example Dark Fortune with €2,000 plus 2,000 free spins per stage (the casino lists it in euros). The latest edition ran as follows:

  1. The qualifying stake is €1 or the equivalent; each €1 wagered scores 100 points, win or lose.
  2. Only real-money bets count. Entry is automatic and costs nothing extra.
  3. If scores are tied at the top, the player who got there first ranks higher.
  4. The pool is split among 30 players: cash for places one to three, free spins for places four to thirty.
  5. Cash prizes have ×3 wagering and a ×2 win cap; free spins (worth €1 each) have ×20 wagering. Claim within 3 days, clear within 5, and cash is credited within 72 hours.

  • Another official ID is accepted instead
  • All four corners in view

2 Address

  • A utility bill, phone bill or bank statement
  • Your name and full address should be visible

What readers ask most

How big is the welcome offer?

It comes in four deposits: 100% + 100 FS, then 75% + 100 FS three times. The total is 325% up to NZ$10,000 with 400 free spins. A first deposit in crypto earns 150 FS instead of 100.

Is a code required?

Yes. Type the bonus code into your profile as you deposit. FIRST, SECOND, THIRD and FOURTH are for the four stages, and WELCOME is for a first deposit in crypto.

How much wagering is there?

Normally ×40 on the bonus or the spin winnings. Some VIP and Highroller offers use ×35 or ×30.

What is the largest bet allowed while wagering?

NZ$3.50 a spin or round. Going over it can lead to bonus winnings being cancelled.

Which games clear a bonus?

Pokies count 100%, apart from jackpot pokies and excluded games. Every other category counts 5%.

Can two bonuses run together?

No. One at a time, and deposit bonuses can't be combined.

Is there an app?

Slotornado is a web app. Add it to your home screen from Chrome on Android or Safari on iOS.
