JILI365 Game weighting Explained — Why Not All Turnover Counts the Same

Should one term on a casino page deserve proper understanding, Game weighting is a reasonable candidate.

Game weighting (also called contribution rate) — The proportion at which bets on a given game contribute to clearing a wagering requirement.

What Game weighting actually means

Not every peso staked counts at the same rate toward a wagering requirement, which is measured in turnover. Because categories differ in house edge and in the predictability of short-run outcomes, operators commonly give each a different contribution rate; slots, table games, live dealer and others can all contribute differently. Each category’s rate comes from the operator for that particular promotion and appears in the terms as a percentage next to every game type.

The common misreading

It is a common assumption that ₱100 wagered clears ₱100 of a wagering requirement every time, no matter the game. Whether that applies depends on a game contributing at 100%, and no lower rate qualifies. Play on a game with a lower contribution rate, or 0%, can go on for a long stretch while the requirement hardly shifts, or stays exactly where it was, and nothing warns of this beyond the weighting table.

The wagering requirement is the multiple to be cleared, whereas game weighting is only the rate at which different games count toward it, so the two are not the same. A maximum bet rule is a different thing again: it limits stake size instead of setting a rate of contribution.

Using it in practice

Which games to play toward a bonus is a decision best made after reading the weighting table in that particular promotion’s terms. The turnover actually required is silently extended if a favourite table or live-dealer game contributes at a far lower rate than expected. Checking it against what max bet rule means is the quickest fix, as those appear next to it in most rulebooks.

Across the game pages on this site you will find terms like Game weighting, and where the studio has not published the figure behind one, the page says that and does not quote a number from a comparison site. This explains the blank entries you will notice across a number of spec tables here.

A worked example

To see how it works, imagine, without any real rate, a promotion where slots contribute 100% and table games contribute 10%, so a ₱100 wager on a slot clears ₱100 of the requirement while the same ₱100 on a table game clears just ₱10. No fixed industry figure covers which categories get which rate; each real promotion states it in its own terms, and another operator’s offer should never be used as a guess.
