Progress toward a wagering requirement is measured in turnover, and pesos staked do not all count at one rate. It is common for operators to weight game categories differently, meaning slots, table games, live dealer and other types can contribute at different rates, reflecting differences in house edge and short-run predictability. The terms of the promotion give each category’s rate as a percentage against the game type, and the operator sets those rates for that promotion alone.
A worked example
Imagine, purely as an illustration of the mechanism and not a real rate, a promotion where slots contribute 100% and table games 10%; ₱100 on a slot then clears ₱100 of the requirement, whereas ₱100 on a table game clears only ₱10. Terms of the promotion itself say which categories carry which rate; this is not an industry constant and must not be borrowed from a different operator’s offer.
Using it in practice
The weighting table in the promotion’s own terms should be read ahead of choosing what to play toward a bonus. Much less than assumed may count from a favourite live-dealer or table game, and the turnover truly required quietly rises as a result.
You will meet terms such as Game weighting throughout this site’s game pages; if a studio keeps the figure behind one private, the page tells you that and leaves out any number lifted from a comparison site. Blank cells turn up in more than one spec table on this page for exactly that reason.
The common misreading
The easy assumption is that a ₱100 wager clears ₱100 of the requirement every time, whatever the wager was placed on. Only games that count at 100% make this true. Playing a game that counts at a lower rate, or at 0%, does little or nothing to shrink the requirement, however long the session, and the weighting table itself is the only warning.
A wagering requirement is the multiple to clear, while game weighting is the rate at which different games count towards clearing it, and they should not be mixed up. This differs from a maximum bet rule as well, since that is a cap on how much can be staked and not a rate of contribution.

Not on this site's evidence. If a number behind game weighting comes from the game's own mathematics, the studio owns it and not the operator, and when the studio leaves it unpublished, nothing outside can back it up.
