Bets build turnover, so it is the staking that counts and not the money changing hands with the operator. Five separate spins of the same ₱100 mean it was staked five times, which contributes ₱500 of turnover on a deposit of only ₱100. Turnover is the quantity that house edge acts on, that wagering requirements count in and that RTP is measured against, so nearly all the other money terms in this list come down to it.

A worked example

Ten rounds of ₱50 played from a ₱500 deposit make ₱500 of turnover, ten times ₱50; that equals the deposit solely because no winnings were restaked. Ten further bets of ₱50 from winnings, placed before the session ends, push turnover to ₱1,000 on that same ₱500 deposit.

Using it in practice

Read a stated wagering requirement or house-edge figure with turnover as the yardstick instead of the sum deposited. They part ways quickly when a balance is replayed over and over in a single session.

Terms such as Turnover recur on this site’s game pages; when the studio gives no figure for one, the page admits it and does not quote a comparison site. Where a spec table shows nothing, this is the cause.

The common misreading

Many mix turnover up with the sum deposited or with the current balance. It is neither. Turnover depends on how often money is staked, not how much sits in the account: a small deposit cycled through repeated wins and restakes can produce many times its own value, and an idle large balance produces zero.

Net win, net loss and deposit are all different figures from turnover. What turnover captures is volume of staking; the outcome and the source are outside it, and a session with large turnover can still end break-even.

Spotting Turnover on a game screen

  1. Open any title’s info or help screen and look for where it deals with turnover.
  2. Compare its wording with the definition above, then check a second title the same way.
  3. Keep the stake and the stop amount fixed before a session that leans on turnover.

FAQ

Is Turnover something a casino can change?

Not on this site's evidence. A value behind turnover that the game's own mathematics sets belongs with the studio and not with the operator, and where the studio is silent no outside source can confirm it either.
