Spinbara tournaments: leaderboards, prize pools and how to join
Alongside the welcome bonus, Spinbara runs regular leaderboard tournaments with real prize pools. Here is how the format works, which games count, and how to give yourself the best shot at a top finish.
How Spinbara tournaments work
Spinbara's tournaments run on a leaderboard format: play the eligible games during the tournament window and your wagers earn points, which place you on a live ranking against every other entrant. The top finishers split a fixed prize pool once the tournament closes.
Tournaments run alongside the regular reload bonuses and VIP programme rather than replacing them, so you can be chasing a leaderboard spot and clearing a reload bonus in the same session.

Eligible games and how points are earned
Only a set list of games counts toward each tournament — usually a rotating selection of slots from the tournament's sponsoring provider. Points are typically based on stake size and the number of qualifying spins, and the exact list is published on the Promotions page before the tournament starts, so check it before you play to make sure your wagers actually count.
- A defined pool of eligible slots, shown on the Promotions page for each tournament
- Points generally scale with stake size — bigger qualifying bets earn more points per spin
- A live leaderboard updates during the tournament window so you can track your rank
- Bonus-funded spins may be excluded or weighted differently — check the specific tournament's terms
Cash, free spins, and how prizes are paid
Each tournament publishes a fixed prize pool split across a set number of ranking positions. Cash and free-spins prizes work differently, so check which applies before you start: cash prizes are usually credited straight to your balance, while free-spins prizes generally carry a wagering requirement before you can withdraw. Always read the specific tournament's terms rather than assuming a cash payout.

How to join a tournament
- Open the Promotions page and find the current or upcoming tournament.
- Opt in if required — some tournaments are automatic, others need a click to enter.
- Play the eligible games during the tournament window; your points accrue automatically.
- Track your position on the live leaderboard and check back when the tournament closes.
Tips for placing higher
Leaderboards are naturally more competitive close to the deadline, so playing earlier in the window can mean less crowded rankings even at similar stakes. Focus your play on the eligible games only — wagers on anything outside the list will not move your position — and set a budget for the session rather than chasing rank with bets you would not otherwise place.
