Playthrough
A 5x playthrough on Sweeps Coins means five times the balance in credited wagering. At 100% contribution you stake 5 SC per 1 SC held; at 20% contribution you stake 25 SC, because only one fifth of each stake is credited.
A 1x requirement on 100 Sweeps Coins means 100 SC must be staked. The balance is not taken away and staked once — you play with it, win some plays and lose others, and the requirement counts the total amount put through the game.
That distinction matters, because it means the cost of a requirement is not the requirement itself. Staking 100 SC at a 4% house edge costs about 4 SC on average, not 100 SC. The requirement determines how much play; the house edge determines what that play costs.

The two numbers that turn a requirement into a cost
T = (B × m) ÷ c
expected cost = T × (1 − r)
m multiplies the amount you must stake. Contribution c divides it — at 20% contribution you stake five coins for every one that counts. Only then does the house edge price the result.
What else a requirement can carry
A multiplier is rarely the whole rule. The conditions below can matter more than the number, because breaching one can void a requirement outright regardless of how much has been staked.
| Condition | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Which balance it applies to | Sweeps Coins, bonus Sweeps Coins and purchased Sweeps Coins are often treated differently, and Gold Coins usually carry no redemption value at all. |
| Game contribution | Excluded games contribute nothing, so no amount of play on them advances the requirement. Reduced-contribution games multiply the cost. |
| Maximum eligible bet | A stake above the cap may not count, or may void the requirement. This is a rule to read before playing, not after. |
| Time limit | A requirement that expires converts a mathematical question into a scheduling one. |
| Minimum redemption | Clearing a requirement does not always mean the balance can be redeemed — a separate threshold often applies. |
Operator rules on record
No operator rules are published yet
This section is empty, and that is a deliberate state rather than an unfinished one. A rule is published here only when all of the following are true:
- it was read from the operator’s own published terms, not from a summary;
- the source document and the date it was read are both recorded;
- a separate verification date records when it was last re-checked;
- the balance type it applies to, the multiplier, the contribution treatment and any maximum bet are each recorded or explicitly marked as unknown;
- a confidence level is attached, and shown to you alongside the rule.
Assembling a playthrough table from other affiliate sites would fill this page in an afternoon and would be worth nothing: you would have no way to tell which entries were current, which were guesses, and which had been copied from a third site that guessed. Wagering terms change without notice, and a stale rule presented confidently is worse than no rule at all.
In the meantime, the calculators work perfectly well on rules you read yourself. Take the multiplier and contribution from the operator’s terms and put them into the playthrough calculator.

How an absent rule is recorded
When a rule is absent, the reason is recorded rather than left blank. These are the four it can be, and each carries its own mark wherever it appears.
- Not published
- The operator states no figure for this rule in its own terms.
- Source unavailable
- The terms document could not be retrieved at all.
- Source blocked
- The terms page refused this environment by geography or by bot rule.
- Could not verify
- A figure was read, but not from a document that meets the source standard.
Whatever is recorded here, the operator’s current terms are the authority. Rules change without notice, and a record on this site describes what was read on the date shown beside it — nothing more.
