Welcome Bonuses
Compare Germany-Friendly Welcome Offers
Welcome packages give new players extra value on their first deposit(s): match bonuses, free spins, or a bundle of both. On this page we rank offers for German players by effective value after rules, wagering, and payout speed.
At a glance: bonus % and cap (e.g., 100% up to €500), wagering on bonus/bonus+deposit, free spins count, min deposit, payment exclusions, and time limits.

FAQs (Welcome Bonuses)
1) Bonus on first deposit or on first two deposits?
Some offers are a one-shot bonus; others are packages spread across 2–4 deposits. We label the structure.
​
2) Bonus vs. deposit+bonus wagering — what’s the difference?
“Bonus only” is gentler. “Bonus + deposit” requires more wagering to release funds.
​
3) What’s a typical min deposit?
Usually €10–€20. High-roller offers can require €100+.
​
4) Can I withdraw before finishing wagering?
Withdrawing early often forfeits the bonus and winnings from it. Check the bonus page for details.
​
5) Do free spins in the welcome package have separate rules?
Yes — FS usually have their own expiry, eligible games and sometimes separate wagering.
​
6) Are payment methods restricted?
Frequently. Some casinos exclude Skrill/Neteller (and sometimes prepaid cards) from welcome promos.
