Bonus buy: definition and example
Option on some slots that lets you pay, often a high multiple of the bet, to trigger the bonus rounds directly.
Definition
Bonus buy lets you skip the wait for the bonus feature to trigger naturally. Its price is set as a multiple of the bet. Each purchase commits a large sum at once, for a highly variable result.
Example
On a slot where the purchase costs 100 times the bet, buying the bonus with a €1 bet costs €100.
What to check
Check whether buying is allowed with an active bonus: many casinos ban it in their terms.
