Crash game. A format where a single multiplier rises in real time until a pre-determined crash point. One decision per round: exit or lose the stake.
Crash point. The coefficient at which the plane flies off. It is fixed cryptographically before betting opens, not generated as the flight progresses.
Instant bust. A round that ends at exactly 1.00x, roughly 5.5% of flights, before any cash out is possible.
RTP (Return to Player). The long-run share of wagers returned across a very large sample. Aviator is certified at 97.00%. It is an average, never a session forecast.
House edge. The mathematical counterpart of RTP, here 3.00% of turnover.
Volatility. The size and frequency of swings. In Aviator you shape it yourself through your cash-out target.
Auto Cash Out. A server-side exit at a pre-set coefficient, removing reaction-time and latency risk.
Two Bets. Two independent wagers in the same flight, each with its own stake and exit target.
Provably Fair. A verification model in which the round outcome is committed as a SHA-512 hash before bets are accepted, so players can audit results afterwards.
Game contribution rate. The percentage of an Aviator wager counted towards bonus wagering, frequently 10% or 0%.
Editorial standards applied here. Aviator is described strictly as a crash game, so slot vocabulary such as reels, paylines and symbols is excluded as inapplicable. The documented maximum multiplier is 10,000x; third-party pages citing a 1,000x cap are incorrect. Figures on RTP, caps and bonus terms should always be re-checked in the help section of the specific operator or provider before you stake, because operator-level settings and promotional terms change without notice.
