What should you use as the normal package?
Use a supported standard package for the same casino, with its own price and premium-coin amount. If you do not know it, calculate the offer’s raw rate and leave the baseline empty.

Made-up inputs. Real arithmetic.
Changing the comparison changes the percentage. It does not change what the offer contains.

Rate uplift against this reference: 50.0%. Teaching inputs, not a verified baseline or an offer recommendation.
A baseline is a claim, not a convenient default
A baseline describes what the same casino normally supplies for a stated price. It is not automatically one SC per dollar, the largest package you can find, a competitor’s package, or the price somebody remembers paying. Each of those choices can change the conclusion without changing the offer being checked.
A normal package needs its own evidence and scope. Read the current standard purchase screen and keep the name, price, premium currency amount and date together. If the screen is account-specific or you cannot distinguish a standard package from another promotion, say so. The checker can still calculate a rate without resolving that uncertainty.
One offer, two possible comparisons
Take a made-up offer of 30 SC for $20: its rate is 1.500 SC per dollar. Against an invented standard package of 20 SC for $20, the baseline rate is 1.000 and the uplift is 50.0%. The same offer against 25 SC for $20 has a baseline rate of 1.250 and an uplift of 20.0%.
Neither arithmetic result is inconsistent. They answer different comparison questions. The offer still contains 30 SC for $20 in both cases. The difference is what ‘normal’ was assumed to mean. This is why sharing an uplift percentage without the baseline price and amount leaves out information needed to reproduce it.
A blank field is more useful than an invented number
Enter only the offer price and premium coins when the normal package is unknown. The checker shows the raw purchase rate and effective cost per premium coin; it withholds the comparison band. That is a complete answer to the rate question, even though it cannot answer the above-normal question.
If you do enter a normal coin amount, check its price too. Leaving normal price blank uses the offer price. It does not retrieve a standard price from the selected casino, and it does not ask the operator what your account normally sees. Read the displayed inputs before interpreting the result.
Your input is not a verified BonusHeda baseline
The Deal Checker calculates from what you type. A comparison band from your inputs describes that calculation, not an independently verified baseline in our records. Choosing a casino can provide terminology and recorded history where sufficient data exists; it does not certify the normal package you entered.
Published offer records have a separate evidence chain. Where an observation identifies a baseline, that binding is used; otherwise the published method selects the closest-priced baseline in force for the same casino on the observation date. The calculator does not bypass those requirements or create a record by accepting four numbers.
Keep baseline comparison apart from history
Above normal compares an offer rate with a standard package. Historical position compares a rate with the recorded comparable observations. An offer can be above a baseline without being the strongest historical observation. One comparison cannot stand in for the other.
BonusHeda requires at least five comparable observations before showing historical position. Even then, the result describes the recorded set, not every offer ever available or a future return. If the history is absent or too small, keep that limitation next to the rate instead of replacing it with a claim about what usually happens.
