Bonus funds are funds credited to your player account, typically for promotional offers, which are not withdrawable. They can be used to fund any solo or Syndicate bet into a Colossus pool.

How can I use my bonus funds?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Should you have bonus funds in your account, your bonus balance will be displayed at the top of the page. When placing your bet, you will see an option to use these bonus funds to fund your bet below the bet placement button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selecting this button will use your bonus funds to place the bet. If the bet cost exceeds your bonus balance, the bet will be funded by your bonus balance with any excess cost funded by your cash balance.<\/p>\n\n\n
