When a Spinson bonus does not appear
A missing bonus is usually a qualifying condition that was not met rather than a fault, and the conditions are short enough to check in a couple of minutes. This page works through them in the order they are most likely to apply, then covers what to do if everything checks out and the bonus is still absent.
Check the deposit amount first
Spinson’s welcome offer — a 100% match up to £500 plus 150 free spins — requires a first deposit of at least £20. This is the single most common reason it does not credit. A £15 deposit does not produce a smaller bonus; it produces no bonus, because the offer has a floor rather than a sliding scale. The full terms are on the welcome bonus page.
Check it was the first deposit
A welcome offer attaches to the first qualifying deposit on an account. If a smaller deposit went in before the one you expected to qualify, the offer may already have been spent against it. This catches people who test a new casino with a small amount before committing.
Check whether an opt-in was required
Based on what Spinson publishes, the welcome offer applies automatically to a qualifying deposit and no promo code is needed. That said, promotions areas commonly carry an opt-in toggle, and an offer skipped at the cashier is not always recoverable afterwards. Look in the promotions section of your account before contacting anyone.
Give it a little time, then look again
A bonus does not always land in the same second as the deposit. A short delay between a deposit clearing and the bonus displaying is normal. Refreshing the account, or signing out and back in through the login page, resolves a fair share of cases where the credit has actually happened but the balance on screen has not caught up.
Free spins specifically
Free spins are frequently released in daily batches rather than all at once, and Spinson does not publish a release schedule for its 150. If the match credited and the spins have not, that pattern is the most likely explanation.
One figure the operator does publish is worth knowing here: winnings from the free spins expire 21 days after they are credited. That clock is real, and it applies to the winnings rather than to the spins themselves. If spins arrive in batches, the practical consequence is that different portions of a balance can carry different deadlines.
If the bonus credited and then vanished
This is a different problem from one that never arrived. The usual cause is a maximum-stake rule that applies while a wagering requirement is active — exceeding it on a single spin can void the accumulated bonus balance at some operators, regardless of progress made. Spinson does not publish its own figure for this, which is precisely why staking modestly while a bonus is running is the safer habit. The bonus terms page covers how the 35x requirement works and which part of a balance it locks.
What to send support
If the deposit met the £20 minimum, it was genuinely the first, and nothing has appeared after a reasonable wait, that is the point to raise it. Send the deposit date and time, the exact amount, the payment method, and a note of what did and did not credit. Support channels are set out on the support page — live chat once signed in, or email.
Raising it promptly matters more here than with most queries, because an offer tied to a first deposit becomes harder to apply retrospectively the longer the account has been played.
A note on chasing an offer
If a bonus has not credited, the instinct to deposit again to trigger it is worth resisting until support has answered — a second deposit is not a first deposit, and it will not qualify. More broadly, a promotion is a reason to play at all only if you were going to play anyway. The responsible gambling page covers deposit limits and the free UK services that operate independently of the operator.
Frequently asked questions
- Why didn't my Spinson welcome bonus credit?
- The most frequent cause is a first deposit below the £20 qualifying minimum. Depositing less does not part-qualify — the offer either applies or it does not.
- My free spins are missing but the match credited. Why?
- Operators commonly release free spins in batches over several days rather than all at once, and Spinson doesn't publish a release schedule. Check the promotions area of your account before assuming they are lost.
- My bonus balance disappeared after a big win. What happened?
- A maximum-stake rule during wagering is the usual explanation. Spinson doesn't publish its figure, so staking conservatively while a bonus is active is the safer approach.
