Free Play
Circa Casino refreshes its “Free Play” lineup and clarifies how members can claim, use, and cash out bonus credits. The update highlights the New Member Challenge, ongoing tournaments, and how free slot play interacts with the casino’s general bonus rules. Read on for what’s changed, how to maximize value, and where to get help if you have questions.
What Circa’s “Free Play” actually covers — and what to watch for
“Free Play” at Circa generally refers to bonus slot credits, tournament-entry rewards, and slot-play credits earned through loyalty points. A flagship example is the NEW MEMBER CHALLENGE: members earn $5 in free slot play for every 50 points they collect during their first 24 hours, up to 1,000 points — that’s a potential $100 in free play for new accounts. Tournament prizes, like the WIN DEREK’S BRONCO RAPTOR event, also count as non-cash rewards tied to gameplay.

How to claim free play and where you can use it
Most free-play credits are earned by playing eligible games. For the New Member Challenge, eligible titles include reel slots, video poker, and video keno. Slots such as classic reel titles or newer video slots are commonly eligible; for a sample classic-style slot you can try Reels & Wheels Slots. Tournament entries and loyalty multipliers also give you chances to collect free-play awards.
Credits are typically added automatically when you hit the required point thresholds or meet promotion conditions, but always confirm the specific offer terms and the promotion window before you play.
Key rules that affect your ability to withdraw free-play winnings
Circa’s general bonus policy applies to free-play credits. All bonuses have wagering requirements that must be satisfied before you can withdraw winnings. Unless an offer states otherwise, free-play bonuses are “sticky” bonuses — they cannot be withdrawn as cash and will be removed from your account when you make a withdrawal. When an account holds both deposit funds and bonus funds, losses are deducted from the deposit first, then from the bonus. Typical maximum cashout limits start around $20,000, but specific offers may set different caps.
Also watch for max-bet rules during bonus play and any game-weighting rules that change how spins contribute to wagering requirements. Violating wager or max-bet limits can void bonus eligibility, so review the promo terms carefully.
Crypto and deposit options that pair with free play
Circa supports both USD and cryptocurrency play, and several welcome offers work alongside free-play promotions. Offers include Bitcoin-specific bonuses such as a 125% Bitcoin Welcome Bonus and a Crypto Welcome Bonus up to $3,750, plus standard deposit bonuses like 100% up to $1,000. Payment options include Visa, American Express, bank wire, Zelle, and crypto options like Bitcoin and Tether, among others. If you plan to use crypto, check the bonus terms closely: some crypto bonuses have different wagering or eligibility rules than fiat bonuses.
Practical tips to get the most from free-play credits
Play games with favorable rules and known return-to-player percentages to stretch promotional credits. For slot-based free play, lower-volatility titles and sensible bet sizing can prolong sessions and improve your chance of hitting a qualifying win. Always respect the max-bet and game-weighting rules, track progress toward wagering requirements, and avoid withdrawing until you’ve met the conditions — withdrawals will remove sticky bonuses from your account.
If you’re new, use the New Member Challenge math to plan: $5 per 50 points up to 1,000 points equals up to $100 in free slot play if you reach the max within 24 hours.
