Shuffle Originals house edge
Last updated
The house edge is what a game keeps on average from every dollar you bet. Here are all 18 Shuffle Originals in one table, with where each number comes from: Shuffle's own game pages, or our calculation from the payout tables in Shuffle's game code when Shuffle does not state it.

What the house edge means for you
A 1% edge means that over a long run, every $100 you bet costs about $1. It says nothing about a single session: you can win or lose much more in the short term. What it does tell you is the price of your volume. $10,000 wagered on Dice costs about $100 on average; the same $10,000 on Roulette costs about $270.
That matters for VIP players because progress is counted in wager, not in losses. Climbing to Gold 1 takes $100,000 of wager whatever you play, but it costs about $520 on Blackjack with perfect strategy, about $1,000 on Dice or Mines, and about $2,700 on Roulette. Check your own path with the VIP calculator.
House edge and rakeback
Shuffle's rakeback is 5% of the house edge. A 2% game pays twice the rakeback of a 1% game for the same wager, but it also costs twice as much, so rakeback never makes a higher-edge game the cheaper choice. Run the numbers with the rakeback calculator.
How we got these numbers
- Shuffle game page: the edge or RTP printed on the game's own page or in Shuffle's help center.
- Computed from Shuffle's payout tables: Plinko, Keno and Wheel ship their full payout tables in Shuffle's public game code. We multiplied every payout by its exact probability (binomial for Plinko, hypergeometric for Keno, equal segments for Wheel).
- Derived: Waifu Tower's edge follows from its published multiplier chart.
- Not published: Shuffle does not state an edge for Baccarat, Hilo and Floor is Lava, and we do not guess.
FAQ

Blackjack, at 0.52% with correct strategy (99.48% RTP). After it, Dice, Mines, Crash, Limbo and Wheel all sit at 1%, with Plinko and Keno close to 1% depending on settings.
+Which Shuffle Originals have a 2% edge?
Slide, Coinflip, Chicken, Blitz and, from its multiplier chart, Waifu Tower. Stonks takes a 2% fee on payouts. Roulette is higher at 2.70%.

Yes. Shuffle's rakeback is 5% of the house edge, so the same wager on a 2% game earns twice the rakeback of a 1% game, but it also costs twice as much on average.
+How did you get the edge of Plinko, Keno and Wheel?
Shuffle's game code contains the full payout tables of these three games. We multiplied each payout by its exact probability and added them up to get the RTP. Wheel comes out at exactly 99% for every setting.
