Maximising Your Bonus

Most new players can claim a welcome bonus. Typically it is a 100% match up to a certain amount, plus free spins. To get the most out of it, understand the wagering requirements.

Important: Always read the bonus terms – wagering contributions vary by game type.

Worked example

Suppose the welcome bonus is: 100% match up to 2000 NOK, with a 35x wagering requirement on the deposit + bonus, and you deposit 1000 NOK.

Deposit: 1000 NOK
Bonus: 1000 NOK
Total to wager: (1000 + 1000) x 35 = 70 000 NOK

If you only play slots (which usually contribute 100% of the stake), you need to bet 70 000 NOK before any winnings become withdrawable. If you play table games, they might contribute only 10–20%, making the effective wagering much higher.

Tip: Use high-RTP slots to reduce the house edge and meet the requirement faster.

Typical bonus conditions
Component Value
Match percentage 100%
Max bonus amount 2000 NOK
Wagering requirement (bonus+deposit) 35x
Slots contribution 100%
Table games contribution 10–20%

Mobile App

Bethard does not have a dedicated app in Google Play or the App Store, but the website is fully optimized for mobile browsers. You can add it to your home screen as a progressive web app (PWA) for faster access. Just open the site in Safari or Chrome, tap the share icon, and select ‘Add to Home Screen’. The interface works smoothly on both iOS and Android devices.

Worth Knowing

Responsible gambling tools are available to help you stay in control. You can set deposit limits (daily, weekly, monthly), session time limits, and even self-exclude for a period (from 24 hours to permanent). To activate them, go to your account settings under ‘Responsible Gambling’.

Quick Answers

How long does a withdrawal take?

Withdrawals to e-wallets (Skrill, Neteller) typically process within 24 hours. Bank transfers and credit cards may take 3–5 business days. The first withdrawal may be slower due to verification.

Can I change my bonus after claiming it?

No, once the bonus is credited, it cannot be reversed. You must either complete the wagering or forfeit the bonus (which also removes any winnings generated from it).

Is Bethard licensed?

Yes, the casino holds a license from the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and the UK Gambling Commission. For Norwegian players, note that winnings from MGA-licensed sites are typically tax-free, but check local rules.

What games have the best RTP?

Slots like Blood Suckers, Starburst, and Jackpot 6000 often have RTP above 97%. Live dealer blackjack also offers favourable odds if you use basic strategy.

Now that you understand the key steps, set your limits, claim your bonus wisely, and enjoy the experience. Remember to gamble responsibly.
