RTP (Return to Player)
A precise definition of RTP and its relationship to house edge.
Quick answer
RTP is the theoretical percentage of total wagers a game returns to players over a very large sample under a defined configuration.
Why it matters
RTP helps compare game configurations but says little about short-term volatility by itself.
Example
A theoretical 96% RTP is approximately equivalent to a 4% house edge in a simple fixed game model.
Caution
RTP is not a promise of what any one player will receive back.
