How do free spins work?

What free spins are

A free spin is a single spin on a specific slot game where the stake is paid by Cinoslots instead of from your balance. Each free spin has a fixed stake size (typically $0.20–$1.00) and is locked to one or a small list of eligible slot games.

How to use them

1. Profile → Bonuses → Free Spins shows your active free spin packs.
2. Click Play next to a pack — it opens the linked game and auto-uses the free spins on the next spins you make.
3. Free spins are consumed first; once they're out, the game switches to using your real balance.

What happens to winnings

• Winnings from free spins go to your bonus balance, not your real balance.
• Bonus balance has the same wagering requirement as a normal bonus (typically 35× the winnings, not 35× a deposit amount, since there's no deposit).
• Once you've wagered through, the bonus balance converts to real, withdrawable money.

Why winnings aren't immediately withdrawable

Without wagering, every Cinoslots account could grind free spins from promo codes and immediately withdraw the winnings — that's a giveaway, not a casino. The wagering converts free spins into "more play time" rather than "free money."

Free spin expiration

Free spins typically expire 7 days after credit (30 days for VIP Gold+). Use them or lose them.

If they expire unused, the spins themselves are removed but any winnings you already accrued from them stay in your bonus balance and continue to wager down normally.

Max bet while wagering free-spin winnings

Same as standard bonus: $5 per spin until the wagering is complete. Exceeding this voids the bonus.

What if the eligible game is on maintenance?

Free spins extend their expiration by the maintenance duration. We'll email you when the game is back live.

Combining free spins with deposit bonuses

You can have both an active deposit bonus and active free spins simultaneously. Their wagering counters are tracked separately.
