The $10 minimum deposit and what the welcome match gives you
If you are checking Stake Casino from Australia, the key detail is what the $10 refers to. Stake does not offer a no-deposit bonus. The $10 amount is the minimum deposit needed for the first-deposit match, which adds 200% of your deposit up to a maximum bonus of $2,000.
That means the offer is built around a deposit rather than a free balance. Your deposit and bonus then form the amount used for the wagering calculation. The main terms are easy to set out, but the maximum-bet rule is especially important because it is based on the original deposit, not the bonus amount.
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| Minimum deposit | $10 |
| Match | 200% on the first deposit, up to $2,000 |
| Wagering | 40× the combined deposit and bonus |
| Maximum bet during wagering | 1% of the deposit amount |
| Cash-out requirement | The account must be verified before bonus winnings can be withdrawn |
How to register, choose a code and receive the offer
You can enter a welcome code during registration or after opening the account. The code must be added within 24 hours of signing up, either during sign-up or through Settings > Offers > Welcome Offer.

Deposit at least $10 so the first-deposit match can apply.
The bonus is credited within 24-48 hours after review.
There are three welcome-code routes in the offer details. SMPBONUS adds the 200% first-deposit match up to $2,000 and 3.5% weekly rakeback. STAKESPIKE gives the 200% match up to $2,000, while EXTRA200 gives a 200% match up to $1,000 with 40× wagering.
| Code | Offer attached to the code |
|---|---|
| SMPBONUS | 200% first-deposit bonus up to $2,000 plus 3.5% weekly rakeback |
| STAKESPIKE | 200% first-deposit bonus up to $2,000 |
| EXTRA200 | 200% first-deposit bonus up to $1,000 with 40× wagering |
Wagering maths: see what 40× looks like with real deposits
The wagering requirement is 40× the deposit plus the bonus. This is the part most people skip, honestly, so it is worth doing the maths before claiming the offer. The figures below assume the full 200% match applies and show the wagering target before any game contribution percentage is applied.
- $10 deposit + $20 bonus = $30 combined amount. $30 × 40 = $1,200 in wagering.
- $500 deposit + $1,000 bonus = $1,500 combined amount. $1,500 × 40 = $60,000 in wagering.
- $1,000 deposit + $2,000 bonus = $3,000 combined amount. $3,000 × 40 = $120,000 in wagering.
The maximum bet is calculated from the deposit amount. For the $10 example, 1% is $0.10. For the $500 example, the maximum bet is $5, and for the $1,000 example it is $10. Staying within that limit matters while the bonus wagering is still active.
Which games and bets contribute to clearing the requirement
Different product types contribute at different rates. Slots count fully, while table games and sports bets count partially. So two players placing the same cash amount can make different progress towards the target depending on what they play.
| Product | Contribution | Example from a $100 wager |
|---|---|---|
| Slots | 100% | $100 counts towards wagering |
| Table games, such as blackjack | Approximately 25% | About $25 counts towards wagering |
| Sports bets | 75% | $75 counts towards wagering |
For example, a $100 qualifying slots wager contributes the full $100. A $100 blackjack wager contributes approximately $25, and a $100 sports bet contributes $75. The contribution rate does not change the original 40× target; it changes how much of each wager is applied to that target.
The casino has 38,465 titles across slots, blackjack, roulette, baccarat, live casino, game shows, crash games, keno, video poker, jackpot games, scratch cards and peer-to-peer poker. It also has more than 170 live dealer tables, while the sportsbook covers 30+ sports and 15+ esports.
Weekly rakeback and the VIP Club after your first offer
The SMPBONUS route includes 3.5% weekly rakeback, but rakeback becomes available after reaching Bronze in the Stake VIP Club. Bronze requires $10,000 in lifetime wagering. Rakeback runs automatically every week indefinitely and returns a percentage of the house edge on every game.
| Level | Lifetime wager amount |
|---|---|
| Bronze | $10,000 |
| Next level | $50,000 |
| Next level | $100,000 |
| Next levels | $250,000-$2,500,000 |
| Next levels | $2,500,000-$25,000,000 |
| Highest tier | $25,000,000+ |
VIP benefits can include weekly and monthly Boost bonuses based on recent play, level-up cash payments that increase at higher levels, reloads and dedicated VIP hosts at higher tiers. The programme also includes Recent Play Bonuses, which provide money back on losses every time a player levels up. VIP bonuses are instantly withdrawable without wagering strings.
Wagers made with free or bonus money count towards VIP progress, while voided bets do not. That gives bonus play a role beyond the welcome offer, although the separate welcome wagering and maximum-bet rules still apply while that offer is active.
Deposits, verification and getting bonus winnings out
Funding options include Mastercard, VISA, VISA Debit, Visa Credit, PayPal, ApplePay, Google Pay, bank transfer, SEPA, PIX, MoonPay and several cryptocurrencies. Crypto deposits and withdrawals support BTC, ETH, USDT, EOS, DOGE, LTC, SOL, TRX, XRP, BCH, USDC, BNB and LINK.
Crypto withdrawals are processed immediately or within seconds. Bank transfer withdrawals can take up to 3 business days to process. Withdrawals have small fees that vary by method, and there is no limit on the amount withdrawn in a single transaction.
Verification is handled in stages. Level 1 asks for basic personal information, including your home address and date of birth, after registration. Level 2 requires photo identification before depositing. Level 3 asks for proof of address when prompted because of high transaction volume, while Level 4 can require source-of-funds information for high-volume betting, big wins or anti-money-laundering checks.
For bonus play, the practical step is to complete the requested verification before trying to cash out bonus winnings. That keeps the withdrawal requirement clear from the start, rather than leaving it until after you have finished wagering.
Games, mobile access and support when you need a hand
The library includes more than 320 Stake-exclusive titles and an average RTP of 96.5% across the library. Stake Originals use provably fair technology, with results that can be verified, and games are independently checked by GameCheck. Some games also have a demo mode.
On mobile, the Progressive Web App, Android APK and mobile browser version provide the same features as desktop, so the Mobile App experience carries across without changing the account setup. You can use the same account for casino play and sportsbook betting.
Support is available around the clock through live chat and email, with a help centre and an official Telegram channel also available. Live chat responses are targeted within 20 minutes, while email responses are targeted within 24 hours. Support is offered in 17 languages.
