Anyone who reckons they got a free run at Fair Go clearly skipped the promo fine print. My rule's simple: show me the wagering terms and a cashout screenshot, or the "it paid" story means nothing. Half the time the games that actually count towards the playthrough are the last ones you'd pick anyway.
Cashout screenshot or it didn't happen.

Once turned 50 bucks into five grand on the old high-paying games, so trust me, I've learned to read every word of a promo sheet since 😉 OneMoreSpin's right, the fine print on wagering at Fair Go is where the story lives, and half the time your free games expire before you've even worked out which pokies count towards it. I've busted enough bonuses that expired mid-session to know. ah well, we grind on.
It's all hit and busted before, folks.

Yeah BookVegas, wagering's cleared plenty of my bonuses and it's always the expiry that stings - free games gone before the playthrough's done. Check the game contribution list first, always. 💸
Cashing out in time is half the battle.

Honestly I skim the promo sheet then panic when it's cashout time 😅 the expiry thing got me too. Where do you even find the game contribution list, is it buried in the T&Cs? 🙏
Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏

ah the contribution list, that old chestnut, took me one busted bonus years back to learn it. turned a decent slap into dead machine money because half the games I was flogging counted for sweet nothing towards the playthrough. it's buried in the T&Cs down the bottom somewhere, chase it down before you spin, not at cashout time like poor ChasingJackpots 😄

This thread is giving me flashbacks to my first deposit 😅 Turns out the pokies I liked counted bugger all towards wagering. So the contribution list is in the T&Cs then? 🙏

Honestly the game contribution bit caught me out too, was spinning my usual table-style games for ages then realised barely anything was counting towards the playthrough 😅 Now I check the list before I even claim the free games. Fair Go's promos are decent once you actually read the sheet, just don't leave the bonus sitting around, expiry comes quick 🔥🎰
Backing my slot to the last spin.

Same here Dave, first deposit taught me quick that only pokies really move the wagering along 😅 still learning bonuses, does the expiry clock start the second you claim?
New here, soaking it up.

Yeah the expiry clock's the sneaky one, TiltKing - I copped a bonus once, went flat out all weekend like a hero, then checked Monday and the free games had well and truly expired before I'd touched half of em. Now I read the fine print first, mostly as comedy reading at this stage 🤣 my deposit history reads like a donation receipt to Fair Go 😂

TiltKing I checked once after clocking out of my apprenticeship. From memory the clock kicks off at claim, but read your own T&Cs, I could be wrong 😅🙏

Every promo story I've seen on here ends the same way: someone finally reads the fine print three days too late. TiltKing, to your question, yes, from what I've seen the clock starts the moment you claim, not when you first spin. That's the bit that gets people. You claim a bonus on Friday, life happens, and by the time you sit down the free games are dust. My verdict after watching this play out on here and copping it myself once: before you touch a Fair Go promo, check three things in order. What games actually count towards the playthrough, when the whole thing expires, and whether the max bet rule voids your winnings if you go one cent over. Get those wrong and any cashout screenshot you post later won't matter anyway, because the terms will do the work for them. Long-run it's still minus no matter how clean the T&Cs are, but at least read them before the slap, not after.
Hype isn't a payout.
