Mr Vegas does not currently offer free chips, so there is no chip balance to claim without paying in. The current offers are shown above, each with its wagering, minimum deposit and time limit, and you can compare them there before you decide anything. The offer for new players is 100% up to £50 + 11 Free Spins, and existing players have Rainbow Fridays and The Wheel of Vegas. It is a different kind of deal from free chips, because it is built around a deposit. T&Cs apply to all of them.
What the current offers give instead
Free chips usually mean a small balance added to an account with no payment required. The offers at Mr Vegas are different, because the welcome offer is built around a deposit. It adds a match of 100% up to £50 and 11 free spins, and the minimum deposit is £10.
The wagering on the welcome offer is 10x (wager 10 times the first deposit amount to release the bonus); free spins no wagering. That means the bonus has to be played through the stated number of times before it is released, while the free spins carry their own wording in the same requirement. The offer is valid for 60 days. T&Cs apply.
The eligible games are given as Pink Elephants 2 (free spins); bonus: slots, jackpot slots do not contribute. Slots count towards the bonus and jackpot slots do not, so the choice of game decides whether your wagering moves forward at all. Only the games named there are covered, which makes the game list as important as the percentage when you compare offers. If you are unsure which slots are meant, the slots page is a sensible place to start before you deposit.
Chips are a term from table games, so players who search for them often want a way to try roulette or blackjack without paying. The welcome offer is tied to slots, so it does not serve that purpose. If table games are what you are after, the roulette and blackjack pages describe how those games work.
Rainbow Fridays and The Wheel of Vegas are meant for existing players, and they are not welcome offers. The bonuses page lists every offer on the site, and T&Cs apply to each.

What to check if a chips offer ever appears
There is no promise that a free chips offer will be added, so do not wait for one before you decide. If a deal described as free chips does appear, check first whether it needs a payment, because anything that needs your own deposit is not free in the sense the word suggests.
Then go through the points that decide whether a bonus pays out: the games that count, the time limit, the wagering and any code the offer needs. For the offers that exist now, the time limit of the welcome bonus is 60 days and the wagering is 10x (wager 10 times the first deposit amount to release the bonus); free spins no wagering. Those are the figures to compare against any new offer.
Be careful with pages and messages that promise chips without conditions. An offer that hides its wagering, its time limit or its list of eligible games is one you cannot judge, and you should leave it alone until you can see all three. The full terms and conditions are the reliable source, and the bonus code page explains how codes work. Read the terms before you deposit. T&Cs apply.
Is there anything worth taking instead?
For someone who wants chips without paying in, nothing at Mr Vegas fits. The nearest option for a new player is the welcome offer, 100% up to £50 + 11 Free Spins. It suits a player who already intends to deposit and play slots and who accepts wagering of 10x (wager 10 times the first deposit amount to release the bonus); free spins no wagering. See the terms on the cards above, and note that T&Cs apply.
It is a weak fit if you mainly play jackpot slots, since they do not contribute, or if you want to try the casino without spending anything. The wagering and the 60-day time limit are the main downsides, and the offer asks for a minimum deposit of £10 before it applies. T&Cs apply.
A deposit is your own money, so pay in only an amount you can afford to lose. If you decide to go ahead, the sign up page walks through opening an account and the deposits page covers paying in. Rainbow Fridays and The Wheel of Vegas are worth a look only if you already play and the full terms suit you. T&Cs apply.
