Slot Meaning - What Are Online Casino Slots?
Online slots are a combination between the online world experience and the beauty of the old fruit machines, where you would actually put your penny in the slot and crank the arm to set the reels in motion, as you waited and hoped for them to land and display a winning combination.
Thanks to the inventiveness and imagination of some fantastic designers, you can experience the thrill and fun of classic fruit machines from the comfort of your home, and at the palm of your hand.
Symbols
In days of yore, the symbols used on fruit machines were your classic cherries, lemons, bells, lucky number sevens and the favourite: the BAR symbol.
Today, online slot games take their inspiration from the worlds of movies, TV, sport, history, mythology and a whole bunch of other source material to deliver titles that are, in many cases, an absolute joy to behold.
Stakes and Paylines
With all online slot games, you can decide exactly how much you want to stake per spin, and with many titles you can alter how many paylines are active on your reels too; the more lines, the higher your stake but the greater your potential payouts.
Vintage fruit machines would whir into life and create all sorts of clanking sounds. In the case of online casino slots, though, the action is seamless - and, in the case of our licensed movie and TV slots, you might just see and hear bursts of video and audio taken from the original franchise instead.
Reels, Free Spins, Jackpots, Bonus Features and more
Reels spin, reels stop, player wins or doesn’t: that was the formula for your typical fruit machine.
However, players are taken on a whole new voyage of discovery with the best online slot games with bonus features, free spins rounds, jackpot features, and fun side games to keep players on their toes, and the level of interactivity seems to be increasing with each set of new games released on the market.

Variety
One of the great things about online slots compared to the old-school "penny slots" your grandparents used to play, is that the player has so many more options.
Video Slots
These games are big on entertainment. These slots usually have a central story that's brought to life by images, animations and familiar themes. One of our top video slots is: Pirots 3.
Jackpot Slots
When it comes to mammoth payouts, online jackpot slots are the top spinners in the game. Thanks to a progressive jackpot structure where every player's bets add to a communal prizepool, games such as Paddy Power Even Bigger Bananas, have the power to pay out prizes worth well in excess of £/€1,000,000.
Slots Offers and Bonuses
Slots are great fun, but they're also extremely lucrative and we don't want you to miss out on any of our deals
For the most popular jackpot slots, visit our "Jackpot Slots" tab. We also offer “Daily Jackpot” wins.
For deals such as free spins and special prizes, you'll have to click on the "Promotions" tab. Basically, if you want instant access to the most exciting and lucrative slots on the market, our site will guide you every step of the way.
New Games
From the latest releases in the industry to Paddy Power exclusives, we’re constantly updating our game portfolio, to make sure you get access to the trendiest games.
There are few things as satisfying as firing up new casino slots on your desktop or mobile device, and we’ll help you enjoy that sensation as many times as you want to.
Real Money Play
The thrill and anticipation of waiting for the reels to land in position is surely one of the most exhilarating experiences in online gaming.
The emphasis when playing real money slot machines should still be on fun; it is supposed to be a hobby. You’ll win some, you’ll lose some, and while there are millionaires being made by progressive jackpot slots, you shouldn't feel like your wins are guaranteed - they're not, and we have to make this very clear. If your luck’s in, it's happy days.
Choose from the most popular slot games, including Age of the Gods: God of Storms, Big Bass Bonanza and more!
Bankroll management
Other bits of boring advice relate to bankroll management and, specifically, avoiding tilt: the poker term for losing your rag after embarking on a losing streak. If you are a passionate soul, sticking to a set bet amount per spin, no matter what, is a smart strategy. If you're not sure, it might be time to take a break from playing for a few hours.
How do you Play Casino Slot Machines?
Want to know how to play online slots?
1. Decide how much you want to stake. This is often displayed as "bet per line", so if there are 20 active paylines and you're betting 1 credit per, your total stake for that spin is 20 credits. You can adjust this accordingly using the up and down arrows on the game’s controls.
2. Once happy, all you need to do is hit that big juicy spin button. The reels will be set into motion, and after a knee-trembling wait will finally come to a halt displaying their symbols.
3. If you have matched a winning combination, you will be informed of which payline the triumph has occurred on and how much you have won.
4. Some fruit machine games feature unique characteristics following a win. The winning symbols might collapse or disappear to be replaced by others, and once again winning combos can appear and "multiplier" wins achieved. Other slots might take you on journeys to special bonus rounds, or offer up free spins to be enjoyed.
5. "But is there a way how to tell if a fruit machine is going to pay out?", we hear you ask. Nope, unfortunately not.
Tip: Games with a high Return to Player (RTP) rate tend to pay out more often, albeit smaller wins than lower RTP games which are considered of higher variance.
What do Slot Machines Odds & RTP mean?
RTP is a simple way of explaining how a slot game works.
Let’s say that an online game’s RTP is 95%. That tells us the game will gobble up 5% of all bets placed, but pay back 95% to players at various times.
Does that mean that if you wager 100 credits, you’ll get 95 credits back? No, because the RTP is theoretical, which means that if you played an infinite number of times, you would get 95% of your stake back. But on your next session at our slots lobby, you could outdo that win or you may end up recouping a lower amount. It's the nature of the beast.
For this reason, players tend to disagree on the best slots to play. Which are for you? High RTP games where the wins are more regular or lower RTP, higher variance titles where you could win bigger sums?
The best payouts are those linked to a progressive jackpot network. That’s because all players pay into the prize kitty, thus pushing it higher and higher until it is won.
