What is Casino Game Category?

A casino game category is the classification an operator uses to sort its lobby — typically slots, table games, live casino, jackpots, instant win and game shows. The labels are commercial rather than legal, so the same title can sit in different sections at different sites, and filters such as provider, volatility or theme usually sit alongside them. The category matters most when a bonus is involved. Wagering contribution is normally set per category: slots often count in full, while table games, live casino and video poker count for a fraction or not at all. Playing an excluded category with bonus funds can void the offer outright. Before accepting a promotion it is worth reading which categories count and at what rate, because a headline wagering figure means little without that table.
