the five conditions
The five conditions a label prints first
Most labels carry a condition, and most of those print the same five first. This page names each one, shows what it does to the sum, and counts the 1,120 sampled labels that carried one.

the printed figureWhat the label names on its face. Across 1,200 sampled labels the headlines averaged 405.00 and summed to 486,000.00.
the reachable figureWhat remains after the conditions are met at the named weighting. Reachable averaged 82.83 and summed to 99,400.00, about 4.9 times less than printed.
the paid figureWhat left the account. Of the 99,400.00 reachable, 61,200.00 was withdrawn, so a label pays 12.6% of the number it names.
Direct answer
The five conditions printed first on a sampled label are a minimum deposit, a wagering multiple, a time limit, a game weighting and a maximum win. Of 1,120 conditioned labels, 402 led with a minimum deposit and 311 led with a wagering multiple, and each condition changes the reachable figure rather than the printed one.
| condition | labels | share | what it changes |
|---|---|---|---|
| minimum deposit | 402 | 35.9% | whether the offer opens at all |
| wagering multiple | 311 | 27.8% | the turnover bill |
| time limit | 228 | 20.4% | how long the bill must be paid in |
| game weighting | 121 | 10.8% | how much of each stake counts |
| maximum win | 58 | 5.2% | the ceiling on any return |
| two thirds of conditioned labels lead with money or with a multiple | |||
a 100% match, 35x, on a 50.00 deposit
credit printed 50.00
wagering multiple 35x
turnover on the credit 1,750.00
expected cost at a 4% edge 70.00 the price of the credit
so the 50.00 label is a 1,750.00 stake
and at a 4% edge the stake is expected
to cost more than the credit is worth
A condition is not a catch in the dishonest sense. It is the arithmetic that decides the reachable figure, and it is printed under the headline rather than on it.
