Most UK casino bonuses come with an expiry window — typically 7, 14 or 30 days from claim. Once the window closes, any unconverted bonus credit and associated winnings are forfeited. The shorter the window, the harder a high-wagering bonus is to clear realistically.
For free spins, expiry is often shorter (24 to 72 hours). Bonus credit produced by spinning often inherits the spin expiry rather than the longer bonus expiry — check the terms specifically.
Reasonable expiry: 14+ days on bonus credit, 7+ days on free spins. Anything tighter than this combined with high wagering is functionally a non-offer.
Example usage
- Bonus expires 30 days from claim
- Free spins expire 72 hours from credit
