Cashback returns a % of your net loss on a daily or weekly schedule. It’s easy to understand, consistent on mobile, and often comes with low or zero WR on the rebate — making your first withdrawal cleaner than classic welcome bundles.

How cashback is calculated on net loss

The formula

Net loss over period × cashback % = rebate. Example: a $200 net loss at 10% = $20 rebate.

Some brands cap the rebate (e.g., “up to $100/day”). Others apply low WR or no WR to the rebate amount.

What counts as net loss?

Total bets minus returns within the period (and sometimes excluding jackpots/feature buys). Always check the review page for the brand’s definition.

Cashback vs welcome bonus — when each wins

Cashback wins when:
  • You want predictable value with minimal WR friction.
  • You play short mobile sessions and dislike cap traps.
  • First withdrawal needs to be clean and quick.
Welcome bonus wins when:
  • You’re chasing larger headline value and can handle WR.
  • Game plan fits eligible titles and max-bet rules.
  • You understand cap mechanics and time windows.

Payout timing — what GCC players actually see

  • Daily cashback: credit is often automatic next day (T+1). Great for frequent short sessions.
  • Weekly cashback: larger rebate amounts but slower cadence (T+1–T+2 days after week end).
  • WR on rebate: when present, it’s usually low. Some brands offer no-WR cashback — smoother first cashouts.

FAQs

Is cashback real money?

Usually yes; it may be cash or bonus credit. If it has WR, it’s typically low compared to welcome bundles.

Does cashback stack with other promos?

Often yes but not always; check if ND/free spins/welcome bonuses affect eligibility.

Daily or weekly — which is better?

Daily for short sessions and faster feedback; weekly for bigger single rebates.

Why is my rebate lower than expected?

Caps, excluded games, or net-loss definition differences can reduce the final amount.
