Guide

The house edge is the only number that matters in the long run

The house edge is a hundred minus the game's RTP. A 96% RTP means a 4% edge, a 99% RTP means 1%. That percentage is not a fee you pay once — it applies to every stake separately, i.e. to the whole turnover. That is exactly why turnover is a far more important number than the deposit.

Example. A hundred euros of balance played through ten times makes a thousand euros of turnover. In a game with a 1% edge the expected loss is ten euros; with a 4% edge, forty. The same deposit, a fourfold difference — and neither number depends on how lucky you are.

At a crypto casino the choice is unusually wide. The house's own originals games are the cheapest on the market: dice and plinko typically 1%, crash 1–4%. Slots are 2–6% and game shows 3–6%. The same evening on the same budget costs many times less in dice than in a wheel game.

What it does NOT tell you. The house edge is an average over millions of rounds. The result of your evening can be anything — that is described by volatility, not by the edge. A game with a small edge and high volatility can lose more over a short series than a game with a large edge and low volatility.

Practical use. Work out your usual evening: the stake size times the number of rounds gives the turnover, and the turnover times the house edge gives the expected cost. That number is your real price of play and it is worth comparing with the budget before, not after. Anyone who wants to reduce that cost can do it in two ways: choose a game with a lower edge, or take rakeback, which pays part of the edge back — see the list of houses without wagering.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the house edge and RTP?
They are the same figure from two ends: RTP is what goes back to the player, the house edge is what stays with the house. Together 100%.
Can the house edge be reduced?
By game choice yes, by strategy only in table games. Rakeback reduces the effective edge, because part of the turnover comes back.
