Estimated weekly boost
$8 – $18
Illustrative model: theoretical loss (wager × edge) × 5% × a rank multiplier, ±40%. Stake's real formula is private and also weighs your actual result. Paid Saturday ~12:30 GMT.
When it pays, precisely
Every Saturday at about 12:30 GMT. The week it measures runs Saturday 00:00 GMT to the next Saturday 00:00 GMT — so a big Friday-night session counts, a Saturday-morning one rolls into the following week. It lands as a claimable bonus under Offers; the schedule page carries a live countdown.
What the estimate is based on
Stake says the weekly boost depends on your VIP rank, the amount wagered in the window, the house edge of the games you played, and your profit or loss. That is enough to model it as a rebate on theoretical loss: wager × edge is what the casino expected to win from you, and the boost hands a slice back, scaled by rank.
| Weekly wager | Mostly Originals (1%) | Mixed (2.5%) | Mostly slots (4%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| $5,000 · Bronze | $2–4 | $4–9 | $6–14 |
| $25,000 · Gold | $11–26 | $28–66 | $45–105 |
| $100,000 · Platinum II | $60–140 | $150–350 | $240–560 |
Ranges are the model at ±40%. Real payouts land inside them often enough to be useful and outside them often enough that you should treat this as orientation, not accounting.
Why every calculator online disagrees
Because nobody has the formula. Some sites use a flat percentage of wager, some a lossback term, some a rank table. All of them are fitting a curve to community screenshots. We show the assumptions and the range instead of a fake-precise number — and we're starting to log the actual Saturday delivery times on the schedule page, which is the only part anyone can measure.
How to make it bigger without being stupid
- Don't wager for it. At roughly 5% of theoretical loss, an extra $10,000 on 4%-edge slots costs $400 in expectation to add about $20 of boost.
- Higher edge, higher boost — and higher loss. Slots produce more theoretical loss than Originals, so they generate a bigger rebate. That is not a reason to play them.
- Rank matters. The multiplier grows up the ladder; see where you are.

Questions people actually ask
- What time does the Stake weekly bonus come?
- Saturday, around 12:30 GMT. The qualifying window is the previous Saturday 00:00 GMT to Saturday 00:00 GMT. It arrives as a claimable bonus in the Offers section and Stake's VIP Telegram announces it.
- How is the Stake weekly bonus calculated?
- Stake doesn't publish the formula. It's based on the week's wagered amount, the house edge of the games you played, your VIP rank and your results. The estimator here models it as a rebate on theoretical loss scaled by rank — an approximation, shown as a range.
- Who gets the weekly bonus?
- Players from Bronze ($10,000 lifetime wagered) upward, provided they wagered during the week. New accounts below Bronze don't receive it.
- Do I get a weekly bonus if I won?
- Usually yes, but smaller. Results are one of the inputs; a big winning week trims the boost, a losing week on high-edge games grows it.
- Why is my weekly bonus zero?
- Most often: under Bronze, no wagering in the window, or the week's volume was too small to round to a payout. Check the VIP page for your current rank and the Offers tab on Saturday after 12:30 GMT.
- Does Stake.us have a weekly bonus?
- Yes — the same Saturday cadence, paid in Stake Cash. Toggle the calculator to SC.
- Weekly bonus vs rakeback vs monthly — which is bigger?
- For most players rakeback is the steadiest (5% of house edge, every bet), the weekly is the next layer, and the monthly is the largest single payment but arrives once. They stack; none of them beats the house edge.
