How to Choose an Online Slot Machine

Online slots are some of the most popular games in the world, with more to choose from every week at Rainbow Riches Casino.

Players have so many wonderful types of slots to choose from. From Megaways to Cluster Pays and progressive jackpot machines, it can be tricky to know where to bet if you’re just getting started.

We’ve come up with the complete guide on how to choose an online slot game, so you’ll have a better idea of the things to look out for.

Slot Licence and Safety

Ready to spin? The first thing to do when looking for a place to play is to check the online casino’s licence, which will confirm you’re playing in a safe environment. It also means all money is secure, from both deposits and withdrawals.

Rainbow Riches Casino is fully licensed and regulated by the Gambling Commission in the UK. No matter which game you wager on, you can trust that there’s a fair chance of winning, as our software is regularly tested.

We also have a range of helpful tools to help you play responsibly at all times. Use deposit limits to stay in line with budgets, while session reminders send a notification after being logged in for a set period.

Popular Slot Game Providers

To pick a game to play, check out some of the top slot providers. We have a marvellous selection of titles for you right here, from some of the most well-known names in the business.

Want chances to win progressive jackpots? Scroll through our collection of Daily Jackpot games from Red Tiger. Looking for some innovative spins? Take a peek at Big Time Gaming’s Megaways slots.

There’s plenty more where that came from. Pragmatic Play has provided the likes of Big Bass Bonanza and Gates of Olympus, plus you can play slots online from Games Global, Blueprint, Play’n GO and more.

Providers of our games are responsible for some of the best online slots in the UK, so they’re a good place to start when picking a virtual machine to wager on.

Understanding Return to Player (RTP)

RTP rates show the average amount you can expect to win when playing online slots for real money. If a game has an RTP of 96%, it means it pays out an average of £96 from every £100 wagered.

The higher the RTP of an online slot machine is, the more likely it is that payouts are awarded more often. Games with lower RTPs pay out less frequently, but there are chances to play for more valuable prizes.

RTP rates are just an average, but they can be important when it comes to choosing a machine that’s right for you.

Slot Game Volatility

Always look for the volatility information when selecting a game to bet on. The sort of player you are is important when it comes to volatility, just like with RTPs.

Volatility has three different levels: low, medium and high. At the bottom end of the scale, players spin for smaller, more frequent wins. Types of slots with high volatility may have incredible jackpot prizes up for grabs.

Think about bankroll management, too. Online slot games with low volatility are better for those with smaller budgets, as there’s a chance to pick up regular wins. If you have more funds set aside and don’t mind the possibility of longer losing streaks, machines with high volatility should be on the shortlist.

Marvellous Slot Bonus Features

Bonus rounds are another thing to consider when choosing online slot machines. With hundreds of games to pick from, you can discover heaps of exciting features.

Free Spins Bonuses are one of the most popular bonus rounds. This feature awards a set of free slot spins, and sometimes it can be re-triggered for the chance to hit more winning combinations.

Some games include Re-spins, which locks certain symbols while the reels turn again. Multipliers can boost the value of payouts, plus cascading reels can complete a chain reaction of wins.

Two types of jackpot features can be played. Fixed jackpots award a set amount based on your wager, and progressive prizes grow over time until they’re won, which could result in huge payouts!

Read about each of the features available by heading to the game lobby before spinning, so you can learn how to play slots bonus rounds.
