PokerStars bonus

New casino players from the UK can get the following PokerStars bonus:

  • 100% up to £500 + 50 Free Spins
  • Code: FIRST500

How to get PokerStars bonus

  1. Sign up at PokerStars and complete verification
  2. Make a £20 minimum deposit using code: FIRST500
  3. The amount you deposit will be given as bonus money (up to £500)
  4. 50 Free Spins will also be credited to your account

This PokerStars bonus is also known as a match bonus. That’s because anything you deposit will be matched in bonus money, up to the maximum of £300. Here are a few examples:

  • Deposit £20 – Get £20 bonus money
  • Deposit £200 – Get £200 bonus money
  • Deposit £300 or more – Get £300 bonus money (this is the max amount)

Wagering requirements

Most first deposit casino bonuses include wagering requirements, where you need to bet the bonus a certain number of times before it can be withdrawn as cash. However, the way PokerStars does wagering is different from many other sites.

For the bonus money, you have to earn 5 redemption points for every £1 you get. For example, if you get a £20 bonus then you’ll need to earn 100 redemption points (5 x 20) to clear the wagering. For the Free Spins, it’s a little better as you need to earn 2 redemption points per £1 of winnings.

Each type of game has a set amount you need to wager to earn a redemption point. In general, the bigger the chance for the player the more you have to wager. For example, you will only get 1 redemption point after betting around £50 on classic blackjack. However, for a slot with an RTP of 95%, you have to bet around £5 for 1 redemption point.

If you manage to complete the wagering requirements, there’s no max cashout for the bonus money. You will keep whatever is left. However, for the Free Spins, you can only keep a maximum of £100.

Deposit requirements

To get the offer, you need to make a first deposit of £20 or higher using the bonus code: FIRST500. You can only deposit using Visa or Mastercard to be eligible. Any other payment method will not trigger the bonus.

Bonus value

The total value of this PokerStars bonus is £510. That’s because the maximum bonus money you can get is £500. You will also get 50 Free Spins at a value of £0.20 each, which equals another £10.

Of course, to get the full bonus value, you’ll need to deposit £500 or your own money which is a big commitment. But it would mean a total bankroll of £1010 to play with which is big for the UK.

Expiry

As soon as the offer is triggered, you will have 7 days to use the bonus money, free spins, and complete the wagering requirements. Anything left over after this timeframe will be removed.
