// Before Anything Else
Aviator is perhaps the simplest casino game to describe. One multiplier. One place your bet button. One decision per round. What’s a little less clear is how you should approach those decisions across an entire round – when you should opt for Auto Cashout, how big your bets should be, and how to tune out the rest of the game when a multiplier is in motion.
New to Aviator? Start from the beginning. Play a few rounds and still have questions? Jump to the section that answers them.
// What You're Actually Looking At
Your eyes will be focused on the multiplier – a number starting at 1.00× and increasing as the plane flies higher. It is the only number that matters in the game and what you need to track. That single value is the only thing that dictates whether you win and how much you win.
The rest of the page is just window dressing. In the middle and bottom, you see the placement bet field, your place your bet button, a place your auto cashout field, and a place your cancel bet button. You can also see the Live Bets panel on the left, which will list the current active bets in progress and the chat panel on the right, which will show any messages players send during gameplay. A Statistics button sits in the upper right.
When playing on smaller devices, the Live Bets and Stats panels collapse away, and the multiplier fills the entire screen. This is normal behavior that Aviator designers have set up so players on mobile can focus on their cashout decision.
Don’t worry about the live player stats. Those panels show only what other people have done, not what the plane will do. Your bet, the multiplier, and your cashout are all you need to track to succeed. Take the time to be fully comfortable with each element before playing.
// Setting Your Bet
You make a bet in Aviator on the place where you bet in the field between rounds, not during it. Typically, you have 5 seconds from the end of one round to place your next one. Enter a wager amount into the place your bet field and press the place your bet button. When the multiplier flies, no additional bets are accepted until the next round.
The smallest possible bet you can make is $0.10, and the most you can wager is $100. If you place a $0.10 bet, you’re playing a single $0.10 bet, whereas if you wager $100, you’re placing a single $100 bet. Aviator also allows Dual Bets. If you play dual bets, your two positions each have a $50 wager. With two slots in the bet panel, this allows you to wager up to $200 in total per round.
Ensure that your bankroll will cover at least 20 or 30 of your round bets. If a bankroll only allows for fewer than 30 bets per round, the odds favor your game ending well short of that point, leaving you without enough data to determine the trend.
If you’re a new player, make an initial bet that’s $0.20 or $0.50. You want to be betting enough to feel like you really are playing, and enough that you don’t end up losing all your bets after only a couple of round’s bets. If you wager $1 on a bet and the plane flies at 1.01, you’ve only earned a 1-cent profit for your game, which you can then immediately lose.
The size of your bet only affects how much money you win or lose; it has no bearing on whether the multiplier reaches a particular level. If the plane flies to 4.00 and you have a bet of $0.50, you win $2.00. If you have a $5.00 bet, you win $20.00. The plane flies the same, the same way.
// How a Round Works
Press Bet during the countdown. The plane takes off, the multiplier starts rising from 1.00×. You cash out before the plane flies away, or you don’t. Those are the two outcomes:
✅
Cash Out
You hit the Cash Out button as the multiplier increased. Your return is stake × multiplier at the time you clicked the button.
💥
Flies Away
The round finished before you cashed out. Your bet is gone. A brief crash multiplier appears before the next round starts.
// Understanding the Multiplier
The multiplier you see on screen wasn’t calculated while the plane climbed. The crash value was decided before the round started via Spribe’s provably fair mechanism. Casino, and two player seeds (one each) are hashed together into a SHA512 hash that is revealed before take-off. This can never be changed once the hash is published.
This multiplier is not your profit, but your cash-out ratio. On a $2 bet, a 3.00× multiplier will yield a total return of $6.00. Your profit is $4.00. The original stake is part of this sum.
About half the time, the multiplier ends below 2.00×. This is by design, not a dry spell. The crash of one round has no bearing on that of the following round. All are calculated individually.
1.01× is a valid crash multiplier, and you will see it. A round ending at a multiplier of 1.01× immediately after taking off is not a bug or an outlier. Rather, it represents one part of the distribution. When you know that it can and will happen, it is far easier when it does.
// The Multiplier Ranges: What They Mean
There are no “items” or icons on display in Aviator – just the continuously increasing multiplier. Knowing what each range represents is probably the most helpful thing you could know about the game:
1.00×–1.50×
Lowest range. The multiplier is low because it does not fly very high before crashing. It is one of the most common multipliers within any given session of any duration.
1.51×–2.00×
Below average, but quite common. Placing a low-risk auto cashout in this range will see you scoring consistent small payouts, which will chip away at the house advantage over the long run.
2.01×–5.00×
A fairly standard range for any Aviator session, and you will see multiple rounds within this bracket. It forms the bulk of a regular cashing-out plan.
5.01×–10.00×
A strong round. These are frequent enough that with an auto cashout placed higher up, you will eventually get one. This requires discipline and bankroll.
10.01×–100×
Uncommon yet rewarding. A single round in this range that you have in play will give you a good boost.
🚀
100×+
The multiplier can technically hit 100,000×, but the vast majority of online casinos will restrict their payout of a single round to $10,000.
Your auto cashout is a wager on which of these ranges you’ll hit the most often. With a lower multiplier, you will see more payouts of a smaller size. The higher your multiplier, the less you’ll get, but there will be a larger sum. None of this shifts the game’s edge. The 97% RTP remains the same, whatever your multiplier.
Watch the multiplier distribution in demo
Play 30 rounds using the demo mode, paying attention to how many fall into each of the ranges mentioned above. Then you can adjust your auto cashout for real money play.
// Cashout Options: What Suits Which Player
In any round, there is a single variable that is controlled by the player – the cashout itself. The way you approach it will determine the flow of the session:
🐢
Manual Cashout
You're actively monitoring the multiplier and must choose the exact moment to cash out. This requires real self-control, because the higher the multiplier climbs, the more tempting it becomes to just hold on. If you play manually without deciding on a cashout target before the round begins, you'll inevitably find yourself deciding on the worst possible conditions. Manual cashouts are only viable if your target is locked in before takeoff and you adhere to it strictly, no matter how the multiplier fluctuates.
🚶
Auto Cashout
You set a specific multiplier in advance. The system will then automatically cash you out once the multiplier reaches that level, bypassing any in-round decision-making. Your target is selected with clear logic before the plane lifts, rather than being a reflexive choice while the multiplier is rising. This is the strategy most recommended for stable session control for most players.
🐇
Two-Target Strategy via Dual Bet
This is when you use both betting sides at the same time to run two different auto cashout targets. The classic example is setting one for 1.80×–2.00× so that you get out with most of your rounds and another to go up to 8×–15× or manually for that bigger win. The lower multiplier provides a flow to your session, and the higher multiplier gives you the big win potential. Just note that these bets aren't protecting each other – both of them lose their money in an early crash.
⚡
Autoplay with Auto Cashout
You can set this and walk away. The bet gets automatically replaced every round. You set a multiplier for when the game will cash you out and a condition to end the session once the multiplier is reached. You can set all your settings before you go and then just watch the results rather than following each round's multiplier. You need to set loss limits before the session starts.
Long manual play, especially without pre-determined cashout targets, is what causes the most loss for players unnecessarily. If you’re watching the multiplier and making the decision during the round, then you’re already behind the eight ball.
// The Autoplay Feature
The autoplay feature puts the bet automatically for every round and will stop when a certain condition is met. There are two things you must configure before you start:
Number of Rounds:
The maximum number of rounds it will run before it stops itself automatically, even if no stop condition was triggered.
Stop Conditions
Win
This will stop the session when a round wins more than your bet.
Win over X
This will stop when you win X or higher on any round.
Balance increase by X
This will stop when your session has a net gain of X.
Balance decrease by X
Loss limit – stops when the session has a loss of X. Always have this set.
Never start an autoplay without a loss limit. Once you have lost enough to start thinking about stopping, it’s usually too late for those types of decisions. So set the balance to decrease before the session, rather than setting it after losing three in a row.
Please Note: After autoplay ends (either because a stop condition was met or it reached the number of rounds), you’ll switch to manual play. Turning the autoplay immediately after is one of the most common causes of a session extending far beyond what you thought. Don’t turn off the autoplay, just use it as a reminder to check back in.
// Interface Settings
Before your very first session, there are a few interface settings that are well worth a look-through:
📍
Statistics
This page gives you access to your current and all-time round history and the history of your own cashout values. Only bother visiting this page once you have played more than 20 or so rounds; you don't need to stop during every single one just to check how things are going.
🔲
Live chat
This is only available for real money play and can give you a bit of a social feeling, though it can also be distracting from your own play if you need full focus on the round you are currently playing. It can be minimized or closed.
🔊
Sound
The sound effect is useful when you cash out, so this is one for keeping on. The music, however, can easily be kept off if you prefer, and it is also possible to separate the two sound effects via the settings menu if need be.
⚡
Panel layout
The side panels on the screen automatically collapse and disappear on smaller screens. These should be manually reopened if you would like full access to current betting information or, alternatively, left closed so as to concentrate purely on the multiplier.
// History and Statistics
A few minutes should be taken to check these two pages out after every session of play:
📋
Round History
Here you will see the history of your own cashout values and what multipliers were on offer at the point of the crash. It is worth checking out the round history after 20 or so rounds, as it is easier in retrospect than in the moment to get a full idea of how your own session was played out and if you were cashing out at all when it mattered, or regularly.
📄
Statistics Tab
This is another page that you will likely visit quite regularly; the statistics section tells you the biggest multipliers that have been achieved during the day, during the month, or all time. It can give you a good idea of just how common high multipliers are in real play versus how much of a rarity they seem to be when they come along.
Note that if you are unable to complete a round, the crash point will have been predetermined for you already at the point the round starts. If you have a set auto cashout multiplier, and it is beaten before the crash, the payout will be awarded once the round is over.
// Playing on Mobile
Aviator is an HTML5 game, so it can be played directly within any modern mobile browser with no specific app required. You simply visit the casino page on your mobile device of choice through whichever mobile browser or dedicated casino app is installed there, and the interface should automatically adapt to suit the screen size.
👆
Touch cashout
This has been fully optimised to work with tapping rather than swiping, making it the perfect touch target for cashout on all devices. If you've ever tried to cash out with your fingers, you'll know that timing is the key to success, and this has been designed as such.
📱
Screen orientation
Both vertical and horizontal are possible; vertical will hide more of the chart and keep the focus on the betting panel, whereas horizontal will give you the best view of the game and multiplier progression.
📶
Connection quality
As the multiplier is calculated live, having a poor connection could see you lag when trying to execute cashout, which is why you should always be using wifi when playing Aviator.
⚠️
No official Aviator app
The game hasn't been released by Spribe as a standalone app, which is why any app you can find elsewhere won't be the official Aviator app.
// The Demo Version: What It Does and Doesn't Give You
The demo version will use the same provably fair algorithm and RNG as the real money version, but on virtual credits. All the features will be active, including dual betting, auto cashout, autoplay, and statistics. However, as a demo, you will not be able to activate or claim any of the rain-free bets, which will only be active during live play.
✅
What demo mode gives you
The same multiplier distribution as real play The option to test your cashout multiplier settings with the auto cashout or dual bet option To get used to the feel and pace of a real session A chance to commit to a cashout multiplier and see how it performs after 20–30 rounds
❌
What demo can't replicate
The excitement when the multiplier keeps increasing Whether or not you will be able to stick to your cashout multiplier The presence of the rain-free bets, or any social interaction Any real assessment of how disciplined your own sessions can be
If you’re going to be playing Aviator at a given cashout and a fixed bet for real money, you should first spend at least 2 or 3 sessions in the demo playing at that same level to test out how it feels. It isn’t really meant to be used as a tool to try and predict what the next multiplier will do; it is designed more as a chance to get used to how it feels cashing out at a given point rather than constantly changing your target after each round.
// A Typical First Session
This is essentially what to expect when playing Aviator for the first time:
- Most rounds will end under 2.00x – not because it’s a cold streak, but because that’s where the probability lies.
- At least once, you’ll see a round crash below 1.10x, very early – that’s normal, not a glitch.
- Occasionally, you’ll ride a multiplier past 5x or 10x, but your result will be determined by where your own cashout target sits.
- You will experience stretches of three to five consecutive losses – variance is doing its job.
- A session terminates when any of your chosen stop criteria trigger, your allowed round count is exhausted, or you manually quit. Expect to see a session result somewhere in the red or in the green.
There’s no story here. Each round starts from zero. It’s how you position yourself to profit on the winning moments, while limiting your losses on the losing ones, that counts.
// Common Mistakes
Making the cashout decision on a round-by-round basis
Every round where a cashout target isn't preset is a round where the decision to cash out is made in the heat of the moment. Decide what the target will be, ahead of time, before the round starts (manual or auto).
Pre-define a loss limit before starting an autoplay session
Set 'Balance decrease by X' before starting an autoplay sequence. Do it before the first round starts, while you can think clearly. Do not do it after the first losing streak begins.
Thinking live player cashouts reflect the current multiplier
Player cashout signals reflect auto cashout targets on other players' bets, nothing more. Let your own cash-out target drive your decision.
Changing your cashout target after losses
The current round's result has zero bearing on the next one. Changing your target in response to the last two or five results is a meaningless response to noise.
Thinking dual bet mode provides a hedge
A crash at 1.05x loses both the low and the high bet. One bet does not protect the other. While this is a very different way to play, a session, dual bet mode does not reduce losses to any specific crash.
