Return to player (RTP)
RTP shows the long-term average return. We surface RTP where provided and favour casinos that publish game-by-game figures.
Fair play
RTP, testing, and integrity checks
We only feature casinos that prove their games are fair, independently tested, and transparent.
Random number generators
We require independent RNG certificates and watch for tampering or unapproved software changes.
Game studios
We prefer established studios with transparent math models and avoid unverified or unlicensed suppliers.
Testing bodies we recognise
eCOGRA iTech Labs GLI BMM Testlabs Gaming Associates
Certificates should be current, public, and linked from the casino footer or licence profile.
How RTP impacts you
- Higher RTP generally means better long-term value, but variance still matters.
- Promotions with reduced RTP or fee-loaded spins are flagged or avoided.
- Live dealer games often have lower RTP because of table limits—plan your bankroll accordingly.
- We call out games removed from wagering because they could exploit bonus structures.
Transparency we expect from operators
Publish RTP tables
Players should access RTP data inside the lobby and T&Cs. Lack of data is a red flag.
Change logs
Any RTP or game rule changes must be disclosed with dates. We mirror updates on our How We Rate page.
Secure game delivery
HTTPS and signed game packages prevent tampering. See Privacy & Security.
Responsible messaging
Game pages should show 18+ notices, RG links, and reality check options.
Keep play fun
RTP is not a guarantee. Set limits, pick games you enjoy, and stop when the fun stops. Our Responsible Gambling guide covers tools to keep you safe.
