    Autoplay

    Feature that automatically spins the reels for you.

    Full Explanation

    Autoplay is a slot feature that automatically spins the reels a set number of times at your chosen bet level. Players can configure stop conditions: stop on any win, stop on bonus triggered, stop if balance decreases/increases by a set amount. Autoplay is convenient for clearing wagering requirements or playing at a steady pace. However, it can lead to faster spending since you're less conscious of each individual spin. Some responsible gambling advocates recommend against using autoplay. Certain jurisdictions have restricted or banned autoplay features. Most South African online casinos offer autoplay with customisable loss limits.

    💡 Example

    Set autoplay for 100 spins at R5, stop if balance drops below R200 or bonus is triggered.
