What 97% RTP means

RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a volatile game.

Features explained (members only)

1 feature explained: free spins

Free spins

A bonus round of spins played at no cost to your balance, usually triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. Wins during the round are added to your balance, and many games let you retrigger extra spins.

Strategy tips (members only)

  • Bonus wagering: at 97% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $30.00 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
