The theoretical RTP is an assurance that over time and many spins, the RTP will perform in line with the advertised value. Since the game results are all random, and independent of each other, it is possible for players to have less than, or more than the theoretical RTP in the short term.Ī single 10p spin on a Slot game could return £10, making the single spin 1000% RTP, or it could be a losing spin, making it 0% RTP. The RTP is typically tested against a minimum of one million spins or game rounds, so if a game has an RTP of 95%, it generally means that players can expect an average return of £0.95 in the £1.00 (or equivalent currency) over a long period of play and many spins. It represents the game payout percentage compared to stakes made over an extended amount of game rounds.
A RTP percentage is the theoretical measure to inform customers as to how a game will likely perform over time.
