What is RTP (Return to Player)?

Definition: RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical percentage of wagered money that a game returns to players over the long term.

Example: 96% RTP means that, on average, €96 is returned to players for every €100 wagered, over a very large sample size.
RTP is not a guarantee of short-term results; individual sessions can vary significantly due to randomness and volatility.
Some games can have configurable RTP versions (where permitted), meaning different operators may offer different RTP settings for the same title.
