Looking to make the most money in the slots you play online? Here’s a tip, pay attention to the RTP of everything you spin. RTP determines how much of any winnings go to you, and how much goes elsewhere — think of it like a minor slot tax that most aren’t even aware of, especially newbies to the igaming world. 

Today we’ll be looking at the importance of RTP in the slots you play as well as just what the hell it even is in the first place. We can’t stress the importance of RTP enough — if you play Slotzo now to make money, then you should always, always always be looking at what’s in it for you. Now, let’s get into it people! 

What is RTP? 

RTP stands for: return to player, and is normally displayed in the form of a percentage, a number that will fluctuate depending on the developer/slot you are looking at. Most reputable game developers will offer slots that have an RTP that averages around the 95% mark, but it’s always worth double-checking if you aren’t sure. 

Why is RTP important? You wouldn’t play a slot that takes most of your earnings without asking would you? Say a game has a low RTP percentage, that would mean you aren’t earning the full amount of what is rightfully yours. Know your worth people. If you invest a lot of time into online slots then you should be ensuring that the RTP percentage is in the right place before you even think about spinning.
