Is the RTP of an online slot the same on every online casino?

I'm wondering if the RTP of branded slots is always consistent across the different sites that host it. For example I played the new Jumanji slot on Spinz Casino and it said the RTP is 96.33%. Does this mean it will be exactly the same RTP at BetFair, Casumo, Paddy Power etc?

Usually the same but not always, lesser known casinos are more likely to have a lower rtp. Some games actually have 2 settings for it. Less reputable companies have also been known to use pirated versions which I assume would be particularly low RTP

I don't know the answer, but what is RTP?

Correct.

Long-term you are losing £3.67 of every £100 you put in the Skinner box.

Likely yes, because of the way products are licensed. Licensed products are built by a team that then lend out their pre-built systems to gambling platforms.

Your best bet is to find casinos that have better house edges in the first place.

If it's the same slot, probably.

I don't think so. Just from personal experience there's some casino's that seem to payout or hit a bonus far less.

u/Col_Psoas:

The RTP will not be the same at other casinos. Some online casinos use third party audited and sealed software packages that they are the operator for - which is why you see online casinos usually called "operators" instead of casinos, because they're leasing a software package, skinning it up for their online offering; you often have to find which software package it is to find out details about setting configurations and options.

Other casinos use their own software - some ... more trustworthy than others. Do your research. Take nothing for granted. There's a reason that the Online Casino industry is a grey market.

No. The games are set at a certain RTP by default, but this may get altered by the casino if they wish to and is fine with the game provider.

Some casinos have different RTP for the same game depending on which license it's under. They may offer a lower RTP on a game for a certain market and blame it on that their license have a harder tax regulation.

in land casinos, slot games and their math are connected 1:1. the games are approved with a few different RTP settings so the operator can choose how tight they want to be. the same "math" is probably present, but the question is, is what is the "hold" set to, meaning what % off the 100% are they going to keep for the casino.
