Bonuses At BetBrave
At signup, you pick one of two welcome bonuses — RUSH or MARATHON. From there, weekly cashback and rakeback run quietly in the background without you needing to do anything extra. This page walks through the full mechanics behind each one, including the numbers that didn't fit into the short overview on the homepage.
RUSH Bonus
The RUSH Bonus rewards each of your first three eligible deposits with a separate bonus tied to that deposit. The structure is deliberately simple:
| Deposit | Bonus |
|---|---|
| First Deposit | 100% up to €500 |
| Second Deposit | 75% up to €500 |
| Third Deposit | 125% up to €1,000 |
The minimum qualifying deposit for each of the three stages is €30. Deposit more than what's needed to hit the bonus cap, and the extra amount simply lands on your real balance as usual — it never becomes part of the bonus.
How The Bonus Works
Each RUSH stage carries a 40x wagering requirement based on the bonus amount you received. Your wagering progress is saved between sessions, so you can pick up exactly where you left off instead of starting over. Every activated bonus stays valid for 7 days from the moment it's activated. Once the wagering requirement is fully met, whatever's left of the bonus converts automatically into real money and moves to your regular balance.
Withdrawals And Bonus Cancellation
Withdrawals aren't available while a RUSH Bonus is active. To access your funds, you've got two options: finish the active wagering requirement, or cancel the bonus outright. Cancel before the wagering requirement is complete, though, and both the bonus itself and any winnings generated from it get removed — that's the trade-off for backing out early.
How Games Count Toward Wagering
Not every game contributes equally to the wagering requirement — only select slots count at all, and even among those, how much they contribute depends on the title's RTP:
| Game RTP | Wagering Contribution |
|---|---|
| Below 98% | 100% |
| 98% to 98.99% | 50% |
| 99% or higher | 10% |
Games without published RTP data don't contribute to wagering at all. Certain games and game types are excluded from bonus wagering entirely. Before you open a game that contributes less than 100% — or doesn't contribute at all — you'll see a notification showing the exact contribution rate, so you always know where you stand before you start playing.

MARATHON Bonus
The MARATHON Bonus works fundamentally differently from RUSH — instead of fixed percentages, the bonus scales with how much you deposit, and instead of a classic wagering requirement, you unlock your bonus funds gradually as you play. Choose MARATHON at signup and it applies to both casino and sportsbook, with identical percentages on each side. Across your first four deposits, that adds up to eight bonus opportunities in total: four on your casino balance, four more on your sportsbook balance.
Each of the four deposit stages is further split into three tiers — deposit more, and the percentage climbs:
First Deposit — Up To 200%
| Deposit Amount | Bonus | Example |
|---|---|---|
| €30 – €99 | 100% | Deposit €30 → get €30 bonus |
| €100 – €399 | 150% | Deposit €100 → get €150 bonus |
| €400+ | 200% | Deposit €400 → get €800 bonus |
Second Deposit — Up To 210%
| Deposit Amount | Bonus | Example |
|---|---|---|
| €30 – €119 | 100% | Deposit €60 → get €60 bonus |
| €120 – €599 | 150% | Deposit €120 → get €180 bonus |
| €600+ | 210% | Deposit €600 → get €1,260 bonus |
Third Deposit — Up To 220%
| Deposit Amount | Bonus | Example |
|---|---|---|
| €30 – €299 | 100% | Deposit €120 → get €120 bonus |
| €300 – €1,499 | 150% | Deposit €300 → get €450 bonus |
| €1,500+ | 220% | Deposit €1,500 → get €3,300 bonus |
Fourth Deposit — Up To 270%
| Deposit Amount | Bonus | Example |
|---|---|---|
| €30 – €399 | 100% | Deposit €150 → get €150 bonus |
| €400 – €2,999 | 150% | Deposit €400 → get €600 bonus |
| €3,000+ | 270% | Deposit €3,000 → get €8,100 bonus |
How The Bonus Funds Unlock
Rather than a fixed wagering multiplier, MARATHON works on rolling unlocks: your stake amount gets multiplied by 1%, and half of that gets credited to your bonus. As a formula: wagered amount × 1% × 50% = unlocked bonus funds. Wager €500, for instance, and you'll unlock €2.50 of your bonus (€500 × 1% × 50%).
Receiving And Unlocking The Bonus
Select the MARATHON Bonus at registration and it activates right away. Make a deposit of €30 or more, and the matching deposit bonus is credited automatically — no extra steps needed. That real-money bonus starts out locked, and you unlock it by wagering on any game available on the platform, with no restrictions on which games count.
See The MARATHON BonusCashback
Weekly cashback runs quietly in the background — there's nothing to sign up for. Credit lands every Monday at 2:00 AM CET, calculated purely on your net losses during that promotional period; wins don't factor into the math. Payout only kicks in once your accumulated cashback reaches at least €5 — fall short, and the balance simply carries over into the following week.
Worth knowing: exploiting bugs or errors on the platform counts as fraudulent activity, and doing so risks forfeiting any winnings involved plus a possible account suspension. A maximum of one cashback bonus applies per person, IP address, and device. BetBrave also reserves the right to modify or suspend the cashback promotion at any time without prior notice, and the exact terms can differ between affiliate players and standard players.
Rakeback
Rakeback is the most straightforward of the four offers: no wagering, no waiting, no expiry date. The calculation runs on a simple formula — wagered amount × 1% × 5%. Wager €1,000 in total, and that works out to €0.50 in rakeback. The minimum withdrawable amount is €1.00, and winnings from rakeback can be withdrawn directly with no additional conditions attached. If you haven't hit that minimum yet, nothing is lost — it just sits there accumulating until you do.
The same rule applies here too: a maximum of one bonus per person, IP address, and device.
Worth knowing: both RUSH and MARATHON are welcome offers, available only at signup — you pick one or the other, not both. Cashback and rakeback keep running independently of that choice, no matter which welcome bonus you originally selected.
