Casino max free chip
A casino max free chip is a promotional no-deposit bonus that converts to bonus funds and has a stated maximum cashout, limiting how much a player can withdraw from winnings.
Key points
- The player claims a no-deposit bonus as a free chip, which appears as bonus funds in the casino account.1
- Only winnings up to the stated cashout cap can be withdrawn after the wagering requirement is met.1
- The cap and wagering rules vary by promotion; there is no universal standard for this term.1
Where this term is used
Not the same as
- Casino gambling chips — a general term for the virtual or physical chips used to represent money in play, not a promotional bonus
- Casino max payout — a broad cap on winnings or prize payouts from a game, not the narrower capped withdrawal of a free-chip promotion
