Payback Notes

Terms of use

The short version: this is an information site for adults, figures are correct on the date shown, and nothing here is advice to gamble.

Information, not advice

Payback Notes explains how pokies return to player and what venues and studios publish. It isn’t financial advice or a recommendation to gamble. RTP is a long-run average and can’t predict any session.

18+

The site is for adults. Gambling in Australia is for people 18 and over.

Accuracy

Each figure shows the date we checked it and where it came from. Studios, venues and regulators change their settings and pages; if a figure differs from what you see at the source, the source wins. Tell us and we’ll update it.

Online casinos

Offering online casino games and online pokies to people in Australia is prohibited under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001. Online casinos are not licensed in Australia. Pages that describe online games say where the figure comes from; they don’t make any casino legal.

We link to other sites for sources and context. We’re not responsible for their content. Some links may earn us a commission; see how we earn.
