phtya offers a welcome bonus to newly registered players on their first deposit. The exact bonus amount, match percentage, and minimum deposit threshold are displayed on the promotions page within your phtya account at the time of registration. Welcome bonuses are subject to wagering requirements — the number of times you must wager the bonus amount before it converts to withdrawable cash. Always read the full bonus terms before claiming.

A wagering requirement (also called a rollover or playthrough) is the number of times you must wager your bonus amount before the bonus converts to real withdrawable cash. For example, a ₱500 bonus with a 20x wagering requirement means you must place a total of ₱10,000 in qualifying bets before withdrawing. On phtya, not all games contribute equally to wagering — slots typically contribute 100% while live casino games may contribute less. Check your specific bonus terms in your phtya account.
