KRM88 glossary: casino, bonus and betting terms
Account, wallet and bonus words

Valid turnover
Bets that count towards rollover and rebates. Cancelled rounds and opposite-side bets are excluded, and on sports only the lower of stake or win/loss counts.

Manual rebate
The menu (Member › Manual rebate) where you collect the day's rebate yourself instead of waiting for the automatic payout after 2:00 AM.

Frequently asked questions
What is the single most important term to understand?
Rollover. It decides how much you must bet before a bonus becomes withdrawable, and it is the main difference between offers that look similar.
Is RTP the same as my chance of winning today?
No. RTP is a long-run average across millions of rounds. A single session can end far above or below it.
How do I convert Malay odds to decimal?
For positive Malay odds add 1 (0.70 becomes 1.70). For negative Malay odds, divide 1 by the absolute value and add 1 (-0.80 becomes 2.25).
What does 'opposite-side bet' mean?
Betting on both outcomes of the same event, such as Banker and Player in one round. These bets do not count as valid turnover.
Where can I see these terms applied?
The promotions page uses them in every table, and each lobby guide shows how they apply to that product.
