- Tennessee Sports Wagering Council glossary
Supports: Expressly includes deposit matches within promotional credit.
- Free offers and bonuses
Supports: Distinguishes a customer’s own money from restricted bonus funds and explains that restrictions must be clear.
Remaining evidence gap: Neither page supplies the exact matches-a-percentage mechanic. Whether bonus funds can be withdrawn depends on offer terms, so non-withdrawability is not universal.
