I used to get so excited about free spins. Every time I saw an online casino offering 100+ free spins, I’d jump on it, thinking I was getting a crazy deal. But after a few years of playing, I’m starting to feel like free spins are just a clever way to keep you playing longer without actually giving you much.
Last week, I claimed a 50 free spins bonus at a casino I won’t name. I hit a couple of decent wins, and by the end of my spins, I had $48 in my balance. Pretty good, right? Nope—had to wager it 35x before withdrawing, meaning I had to bet $1,680 just to unlock that money. Ended up losing everything before I even got close.
At this point, I feel like casinos offer free spins not to help players win, but to keep them engaged and spending longer. I still claim them, but I go in with zero expectations now.
Has anyone actually managed to turn a free spins win into a real cashout, or are these bonuses mostly just a way to keep us playing?
