Both bonuses I have received from FTP in the past have been released in $20 increments, so I have no reason to believe this one won't be released in $20 increments as well.

Also, to help you figure out how much to deposit/how much bonus to play for, use the following formula:

Amount of deposit X .5 = Amount of bonus
Amount of bonus/.06 = Number of FTP points you will need to earn to clear bonus
Number of FTP points needed/45 = Number of FTP points you need to earn per day to clear bonus

Compare the number of FTP points per day required to clear your bonus amount with your "normal" number of FTP points you earn per day and decide accordingly as to how large a bonus you can reasonably play for.

For instance, to clear the full $500 bonus will require you to earn an average of 185 FTP points per day over the 45 day period, whereas a $300 bonus will only require you to earn an average of 111 FTP points per day.
