A sticky bonus is promotional money that is not freely withdrawable as cash. The credit can be used for wagering, but the operator may remove the bonus amount when a withdrawal is made even after the playthrough requirement has been completed. In that model, winnings can become withdrawable while the original bonus remains non-cashable.
Operators do not all implement sticky bonuses in exactly the same way. KingSpin’s current terms use the label for a deposit bonus in which deposited funds and bonus funds are combined into a bonus balance and remain unavailable for withdrawal until the stated wagering requirement is met. Other casino terms use “sticky” more narrowly for the non-withdrawable bonus amount itself.
That distinction matters because a balance displayed on screen can contain cash, restricted deposit funds and non-cashable promotional credit at the same time. A sticky offer should therefore state which part of the balance can eventually be withdrawn, whether the original deposit is locked, what wagering applies and whether the bonus is deducted at cash-out. Those rules, rather than the headline percentage, determine how much of the balance can become cash.
