Theoretical Return to Player (RTP)

RTP is important to understand when first trying out online casino games. The Return to Player is a calculation formed by testing each game thousands of times, sometimes even millions. Once you understand what it is, you can use it to improve your gambling experience and potentially your winnings.

The RTP is a calculation used to represent the percentage of all wagers that a slot machine or casino game will return over time. It offers players an insight into how much to expect when playing a casino game in the long run. Figuring out the return to player at Christchurch Casino is straightforward as we display this before you load up the game.

Figuring out what the return to player means is straightforward. Say an online slot had an RTP of 90%. That means for every $100 spent playing, you can expect to see $90 returned to the player. This amount is a guideline, as luck and randomness player a big role and you could win more on your first spin or less.

While the RTP is a fantastic indicator, it is not the only aspect to consider when choosing an online game. Volatility, jackpot size, and bonus features can affect your chances of winning. They divide the Return to Player percentage of online slots among random-triggered minigames and bonus features. That means a slot with multiple bonus features could have a higher RTP overall than you will experience in the base game.

Luck is another factor to consider when looking at the RTP. All games at Christchurch Casino use a random number generator, which means every spin has a unique outcome. The randomness of casino games makes them fun, but it also ensures that each spin is not an exact science. That means you are not guaranteed to win 90% of your $100 bet on every spin.

The more you play casino games, the more you might notice the games you enjoy have a similar RTP or volatility. This is where our handy RTP table can come into play. The data below represents every casino game you can play at Christchurch Casino. If there is a game you like to play, see if there are other titles with similar or higher RTPs available.

What Does RTP Mean?

The Return to Player or RTP is a calculation used for every online casino game to estimate how much they return per spin. They will form this calculation over thousands and even millions of plays, so it may not correspond directly to you. However, it is a fantastic indicator of the fairness of a game in the long term.

You should use RTP alongside a metric of how much you enjoy a game. Everyone plays online slots or table games for different reasons and with different stakes. However, one thing we all share is the amount of fun you experience while playing. Say you loaded up a NetEnt title, one of the best online casino game providers in the world, and you enjoyed playing a slot. You can then check the RTP and use the table above to find games with a similar percentage. This is a fantastic way to find games you might enjoy without having to choose at random.

What is a Volatile Casino Game?

For slots, you can use the RTP as a metric for finding other fun games, but you must not overlook volatility. Volatility is often used to describe how often a game will pay out. A highly volatile slot does not pay out frequently, but when it does, it is usually a much larger amount. A low-volatility slot machine pays out smaller wins but more frequently.

Volatility and RTP do not always go hand in hand, so make sure you check the volatility of a slot machine and the return to player. Once you have done that, you can take advantage of our full catalogue of games. We have over 2,600 slots for members to enjoy, including some of the most popular casino games ever created. Knowing what level of volatility you enjoy, and the RTP will help you find other games that suit your playstyle.
