Casino glossary

An Estonian bank payment button that confirms the payment directly in your own online bank — used at casinos for instant, card-free deposits.

A payment you confirm directly in your online bank — no card details are shared with the casino. Trustly is one such solution.

The money you’ve set aside for gambling. Bankroll management helps you play responsibly and for longer.

A casino’s added value to the player — bonus money, free spins or another perk, always with terms attached.

A bonus that returns part of your losses — typically 5–20%. Often carries a lighter wagering requirement than a welcome bonus, but always check the terms.

Transferring money to a casino account by bank link, card or e-wallet. In Estonia the deposit usually arrives in seconds; the minimum is most often €10.

A digital money account (Skrill, Neteller etc.) between the casino and your bank. The fastest withdrawals, but often excluded from the welcome bonus.

Slot spins the player doesn’t pay for. Often tied to a specific game and bet size and with their own wagering requirement.

A game whose outcome depends on randomness (RNG) rather than skill — such as slots and roulette.

The casino's statistical advantage over the long run. Calculated as 100% − RTP.

An international bank account number used for bank transfers and to route withdrawals to the correct account.

A large prize pool that can be fixed or progressively accumulating — the latter grows with every bet until someone wins it.

An identity check a casino uses to securely verify the account and withdrawals and to prevent money laundering.

A licence issued by the regulator (in Estonia the Tax and Customs Board) that lets a casino operate legally and protects players’ rights.

A deposit, loss or time limit a player can set for themselves to stay in control.

A casino-game format with real dealers streamed directly to the player, with roulette, blackjack and other tables.

The largest allowed bet while playing with a bonus. Exceeding it can void the bonus and any winnings.

The smallest amount you can deposit at a casino. It also affects qualifying for a bonus.

A Trustly technology where the account is created during the deposit from your bank data — with no registration form or document upload.

A jackpot that grows with every bet until someone wins it. Network jackpots collect bets from many casinos and have exceeded €19 million.

A repeat deposit bonus for existing players, often at a smaller percentage than the welcome bonus.

A return percentage showing what share of bets a game theoretically pays back over the long run. 96% RTP means a 4% house margin.

A bonus that is never paid out itself — only the winnings earned with it can be withdrawn.

The rules that apply when using the casino and its bonuses. Always read them before taking a bonus.

The movement of money between accounts. An ordinary bank transfer is slower than Trustly (2–5 business days).

A fast bank-based payment that allows deposits and withdrawals without creating a separate account — popular at Estonian casinos.

Confirming your account and identity with documents — part of the KYC process, done before your first withdrawal.

A metric describing how often and in what amounts a game usually pays. High volatility = rarer but bigger wins.

The same as a playthrough requirement: how many times a bonus must be wagered before winnings can be withdrawn.

How many times you must wager the bonus amount before you can withdraw. E.g. a 35× requirement on a €100 bonus means €3,500 in bets.

Transferring winnings from a casino to your bank account or wallet. The first withdrawal requires completed identity verification; money usually goes back via the same channel you deposited with.
