When you play in demo mode, you play with virtual money and it's not possible to withdraw your winnings.

Bonus money is money you're given and is added to the available credit in your account.

Bonus money that you receive from, among other things, taking part in certain promotions, usually have to be wagered a number of times before this is converted to real money. This is called the playthrough. Bonus money cannot be withdrawn until you reach 100% of the bonus playthrough.

The playthrough is the number of times you have to play before you can withdraw the bonus in real money. The basic playthrough at Circus.nl is 30. This means once you've played with your bonus money 30 times, you will have reached 100% of the playthrough. From that moment on you can withdraw your bonus money, as it is converted into real money. Keep in mind that the playthrough is not the same for every type of game. Please check the bonus rules of the relevant promotion for the wagering requirements. These can differ per promotion.

Do you want to know more? Check out our bonus rules.

The playthrough depends on the different games you play and the sports bets you place. For sports bets with odds of at least 1.60, the playthrough is 30. For slot games, the playthrough is also 30. However, for (live) casino, table games and blackjack, the playthrough is 90. Do you want to know more? Check out our bonus rules.

You can see your progress on your bonuses in the "Bonuses and Codes" section. Please note that the playthrough only applies to the initial bet of your bonus and not to the resulting winnings. View the progress of your bonuses and playthrough on the "Bonuses and codes" page.
