Although a wagering requirement is measured in turnover, each peso staked does not count toward it at an equal rate. Different contribution rates by game category are common among operators; slots, table games, live dealer and other categories may each contribute differently, since they vary in house edge and in short-run predictability. For that specific promotion, the operator sets the rate applying to each category, and the terms state it as a percentage beside each game type.

A worked example

To see how it works, and not to quote a real rate, imagine a promotion where slots contribute 100% and table games contribute 10%; a ₱100 wager on a slot clears ₱100 of the requirement, and the same ₱100 on a table game clears just ₱10. In any real promotion, the rate for each category comes from that promotion’s own terms, and nobody should assume it from another operator’s offer because it is not a fixed industry figure.

Using it in practice

Check the weighting table inside that specific promotion’s terms first, then choose the games to play toward a bonus. Contribution rates on a favourite table or live-dealer game may be far below what players assume, which silently lengthens the turnover required. It makes more sense read together with wagering requirement explained and what max bet rule means, since the same clause usually carries all of them.

Game pages across this site lean on terms like Game weighting, and if a studio has not published the figure behind one, the page states that fact rather than quoting a number from a comparison site. The blanks in several spec tables on this page come down to that.

The common misreading

Regardless of what it was wagered on, ₱100 staked does not always clear ₱100 of a wagering requirement, though it is easy to assume it does. Only games contributing at 100% make that true. Playing a game that contributes at a lower rate or at 0% extensively barely shifts the requirement, or does not shift it at all, and only the weighting table gives any warning.

Weighting and the requirement are separate things: the requirement is the multiple to be cleared, and weighting sets how different games count toward it. A maximum bet rule differs from it, being a cap on stake size instead of a rate of contribution.
