Cost of play calculator
Every game has a built-in house edge. Enter how you play to see what a session costs on average — your “ticket price” for the fun.
- Total staked per hour

- Average cost per week

- Average cost per year

These are long-run averages. In any one session you could win or lose much more — that’s what makes it gambling. The house edge means the average always favours the operator.
What RTP really means
Return to player (RTP) is the share of all money staked that a game pays back over millions of plays. A slot with 96% RTP keeps about 4% of everything staked on it. That sounds small, but it applies to every spin — and you often re-stake the same money many times. Staking €1 four hundred times an hour means €400 of turnover, and 4% of that is about €16 an hour on average.
The fastest ways to lower your cost of play are to stake less per bet, play more slowly, and choose games with a higher RTP. A session limit on the site helps with the second.
Questions
Something else? Ask us.
Why is the hourly cost so high when the house edge is small?
Because the edge applies to every stake, and on fast games the same money is re-staked many times an hour. Turnover, not your deposit, drives the cost.
Can I lose more than the average?
Yes. The calculator shows long-run averages. In a single session results swing widely, so set a deposit limit you’re comfortable losing.
