Transcript

A slot paytable explains what qualifies, and what the numbers mean. Start with one symbol row. In this illustrative game, three sevens pay five times the total bet. Next, check the matching rule: three adjacent reels, from the left, on an active line. Then check the payout unit. Here, five times a two rand total bet is ten rand. Another game might quote line bets or coins instead, so the same number can mean something different. Read special symbol and feature rules separately. A payout table does not promise how often a win happens. Eighteen plus. Play responsibly.

Check the specific game’s rules

Symbol counts, matching patterns and payout units vary. The example explains how to read a rule; it does not predict outcomes or promise a payout.
