UK Casino Bonus Rules in 2026: What Changed

What Changed in January 2026

The UK Gambling Commission introduced updated promotional standards effective 19 January 2026. Key changes affecting casino bonuses include:

• 10x wagering cap: New promotional offers cannot require more than 10x wagering on bonus funds
• No mixed-product bonuses: Bonuses cannot combine casino and sports betting requirements in a single offer
• Clearer terms: Operators must present wagering requirements, expiry dates, and game restrictions prominently

What This Means for Players

Bonus terms should be more transparent and less onerous than previously. However, always read the full terms on the operator's website — existing offers may differ from new standards during transition periods.
