Before depositing at any online casino, take five minutes to read this checklist — it covers the steps most players skip.

Prerequisites

• A valid email address and phone number.
• A government-issued ID for identity verification (KYC).
• A secure internet connection to protect your data.
• A device that supports the pointsbet app (mobile-optimized website or progressive web app — no download needed).
• Funding method: credit/debit card, e-wallet, or bank transfer.
• Minimum age of 18 (or legal gambling age in your jurisdiction).

Step-by-Step Sign-Up

1. Navigate to the official site and click "Sign Up" or "Register" — usually located at the top right corner.
2. Fill in the required fields and create your pointsbet login credentials.
3. Set a strong password and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) if available.
4. Accept the terms and conditions; optionally opt into promotional emails.
5. Complete the email verification, then log in using your pointsbet login details.
6. Make your first deposit to activate the welcome bonus.

Calculating Your Bonus

Welcome bonuses typically consist of a deposit match and free spins. For example, a 100% match up to $500 plus 50 free spins. To calculate your bonus, use the following formula:

Bonus Amount = Deposit Amount × Match Percentage (capped at the maximum bonus value).

Suppose you deposit $250. With a 100% match, your bonus is $250 (since $250 × 100% = $250, and it is below the $500 cap). Your total starting balance becomes $250 (deposit) + $250 (bonus) = $500. Free spins are typically credited separately with a fixed value per spin, e.g., $0.10 per spin, so 50 spins give $5 total free spin winnings capped at a maximum cashout.

If you deposit $600, the bonus is capped at $500 (the maximum), so your total is $600 + $500 = $1,100. The wagering requirement is often 35x the bonus amount. On a $250 bonus, you must wager $250 × 35 = $8,750 before withdrawing any winnings from the bonus. Free spins winnings also have wagering requirements, usually 40x.

Always check the terms for game contribution percentages – slots often contribute 100%, table games may contribute less. Use the bonus calculator tool on the site to simulate your expected playthrough.

Banking & Payments

The casino supports several deposit and withdrawal methods. Below is a table of typical options.

Note: Withdrawals may require identity verification before approval. Always use the same method for deposits and withdrawals where possible.

Security Overview

The platform uses SSL encryption to protect data transmission. A Curacao license governs operations, which means winnings may be subject to local income tax in your country – consult a tax advisor. Two-factor authentication is strongly recommended to secure your account. The casino also monitors for suspicious activity and has a responsible gambling policy with self-exclusion tools. Always use unique passwords and never share your login details.

Support Guide

Support is available via live chat, email, and phone. Here are five common scenarios and how to resolve them:

• Forgot password: Use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page. Enter your registered email to receive a reset link. If you don't receive it, check spam or contact support.
• KYC verification pending: Upload clear copies of your ID and proof of address. Verification typically takes 24-48 hours. If delayed, contact live chat.
• Deposit not credited: Check if the transaction shows as pending. Contact support with your transaction ID and screenshot. They will investigate.
• Withdrawal stuck: Ensure all wagering requirements are met and KYC is complete. Withdrawals are reviewed within 24 hours; if longer, contact support.
• Technical issues with the mobile site: Clear your browser cache or try a different browser. The progressive web app (PWA) offers a more stable experience – launch it from the browser menu.

Extra Tips

For the best return to player (RTP), focus on video slots with an RTP above 96%, such as those from NetEnt and Play'n GO. Classic slots and progressive jackpots often have lower RTP (around 88-92%). Avoid high-volatility games unless you have a large bankroll, as they can deplete funds quickly. Table games like blackjack (with basic strategy) can reach 99.5% RTP, making them a smarter choice for bonus wagering. Always check the game's RTP in the info section before playing.
