Ripple (XRP) casino bonus balance: which pot your XRP landed in
Casinos commonly keep two kinds of money in one account: what you sent and what they added. They are not always treated alike.
Before a bonus enters the picture, though, there has to be an XRP deposit that the casino has matched to you, which brings us back to the tag.
One account, two balances
Many cashiers show a cash balance and a promotional balance, sometimes on the same screen and sometimes on two. Terms attached to the second often say how much play is needed before anything can be withdrawn. We state nothing about the twelve operators on this point, since we did not read their bonus terms and will not guess.
What we can say generally is that a deposit sets the sequence going. If the casino has not credited your XRP, no balance of either kind exists to be touched.
Where the tag fits in
An XRP payment that arrived without its tag may sit unclaimed on a shared address. Roobet's help page describes such a deposit as lost. Nothing the other operators published says what they do, and that gap is one reason to never send a bonus-sized amount without a small test first.
Read the terms before the send
Terms are easiest to accept and hardest to unpick afterwards. Read the offer, the playthrough and the withdrawal rules on the operator's own page before you transfer anything, and write down the date you read them.
FAQ
Does a bonus change how XRP is credited?
That depends on the operator's terms, which we did not read for the twelve. Read them on the operator's own page.
Can I accept an offer after a missing-tag deposit?
Only if the deposit is credited to your account first. An unattributed payment has no account to carry the offer.
