Gates of Olympus at VegasNow: three editions, one set of bonus rules

Three Pragmatic Play versions of Gates of Olympus sit in our pokies lobby: the original, the 1000 edition and Super Scatter. They look alike but follow separate rules, so we keep each one's published figures apart and convert them into Australian dollars. Further down you will find how Olympus spins clear a VegasNow welcome bonus, why the A$8 stake limit matters here and what the game earns in loyalty points.

Sorting the three Olympus versions in our VegasNow lobby

A search for Olympus in our pokies lobby returns all three games together. Zeus, the columns and the falling symbols appear on every thumbnail, so a hurried tap can open the wrong one. Trust the title on the loading screen: the RTP, features and top win you read about belong to that version only and never transfer to its relatives.

Search also understands studio names, so typing Pragmatic Play brings up the provider's wider catalogue with the Olympus trio inside it. Once you have settled on a version, add it to Saved so it sits apart from the look-alikes.

Whenever the provider page leaves a cell blank, the game's own panel settles it. Book of Ra raises the identical problem with a different studio on our Book of Ra page, and the pokies overview sets out why one version's RTP should never be quoted for another.

How a paid spin of the original Gates of Olympus unfolds

Forget paylines: the original has six reels and none at all. A win is a headcount of identical symbols, at least eight of them, wherever they fall, and the pay table climbs until thirty of a kind. A bigger group means a larger payment. One paid spin can stretch into several wins through the sequence below.

You pay once

The stake leaves your balance a single time. Whatever follows belongs to that one spin.

Matches pay and vanish

A group of eight or more identical symbols pays, then clears. New symbols fall into the gaps, which is a tumble.

The chain runs on or ends

A refill that forms a fresh group pays and clears again. The first refill without a win closes the sequence.

Multipliers are summed

Any multiplier symbols showing are added up, and that total is applied to the win.

Fifteen free spins from the scatters

Land at least four scatters and the game hands you 15 free spins. They cost nothing more, because the stake was paid by the spin that set them off. Pragmatic Play gives no frequency for the feature, so neither do we. One knock-on effect matters for bonus play: a free spin carries no stake, which means it does nothing for your wagering total.

Olympus multipliers added up: fresh worked examples

Each multiplier symbol can be worth up to 500×. When more than one shows, the game sums them rather than multiplying one by another, and that choice changes the money a great deal. The values below come from the provider's own explanation and are combined here only to show the sums; the game alone decides which values appear and how often.

Multipliers on screenAdded total (what the game uses)Multiplied, for contrastBase winPaid with the added total
5× and 25×30×125×A$1.20A$36.00
2×, 10× and 100×112×2,000×A$0.50A$56.00
10× and 500×510×5,000×A$0.30A$153.00
2× and 5×7×10×A$6.40A$44.80

None of this predicts a session. The 96.50% RTP that Pragmatic Play publishes for the original is an average measured over a colossal number of spins. Put A$10,000 through the game and that average points to A$9,650 returning in the very long run, while a single evening can land well above or well below it. A night with one 112× total and a night with no multiplier at all fit the same figure equally well.

Gates of Olympus Super Scatter at VegasNow: four fixed awards in A$

This version keeps the tumbles and the multipliers of up to 500×, and adds a Super Scatter symbol that pays a fixed multiple of your stake. What counts is how many of them show during the feature. Below, each award is converted at three stakes, all inside the A$8 limit that applies while a bonus runs.

AwardSuper Scatters neededA$0.30 stakeA$1.20 stakeA$6 stake
100×OneA$30A$120A$600
500×TwoA$150A$600A$3,000
5,000×ThreeA$1,500A$6,000A$30,000
50,000×FourA$15,000A$60,000A$300,000

Four Super Scatters is also the version's published maximum, so the last row is a ceiling rather than a step. The provider does not say how often any award occurs, and the top one is the rarest event in the game. Read the columns as the value of a result if it arrives, never as an expectation.

Where the A$5,000 bonus cap starts to bite

Our general bonus terms limit deposit-bonus winnings to A$5,000 or equivalent per offer. So it helps to know, before spinning, at what stake each award would cross that line. Divide A$5,000 by the multiple.

AwardStake that makes it A$5,000Possible inside the A$8 limit?
100×A$50No, A$8 brings A$800 at most
500×A$10No, A$8 brings A$4,000 at most
5,000×A$1Yes, from any stake above A$1
50,000×A$0.10Yes, from any stake above A$0.10

In plain terms, with a bonus open, one or two Super Scatters never reach the cap at a permitted stake, while three or four can blow past it at everyday stakes. If that happens, the cap and not the on-screen figure sets what you can cash out after wagering. Without a bonus the cap does not apply, but method ranges, the account's daily, weekly and monthly limits and instalment payments for large sums still do. Our withdrawals page has those figures.

How Olympus spins count toward a VegasNow welcome bonus

Every Olympus version is a slot, and slots earn full credit, 100%, toward bonus wagering under our general bonus terms of 26 February 2024. The terms keep an exceptions list, so check that your version is not on it. Compare the other categories: a dollar on roulette is worth 25 cents of progress, a dollar on blackjack or a game show 10 cents, and a dollar on baccarat nothing. No other game type gets a requirement done with fewer total stakes.

The package itself runs to A$8,000 and 500 free spins over four deposits. Stage one is 150% up to A$1,500 with 200 spins and needs no code, while stages two to four use VEGAS2, VEGAS3 and VEGAS4 for matches of 100%, 50% and 25%. These are the rules that shape Olympus play:

  • Entry: at least A$20 per offer, or more if your method demands it; cards and MiFinity begin at A$30.
  • Turnover: 40× the bonus and 40× any spin winnings, all within 7 days.
  • Spins: credited after the deposit has been played through once, with a separate activation window.
  • Limits: A$5,000 per offer on deposit-bonus winnings, A$300 on welcome spin winnings, one bonus live at a time, casino and live casino only.

Each point is unpacked on our welcome bonus page, and you are free to decline a bonus whose rules do not fit the way you play.

Worked example: an A$110 first deposit played on Olympus

Picture an A$110 card deposit, well clear of the A$30 card floor. A 150% match puts A$165 of bonus money beside it, and 40 lots of A$165 come to A$6,600, the stakes you need inside a week. Because Olympus counts in full, your stake size alone sets the spin count.

Stake per spinPaid spins for A$6,600Daily share over 7 days
A$1.604,125About 589
A$4.001,650About 236
A$8.00, the bonus maximum825About 118

Tumbles never trim that list. Five wins chained from one spin are still one stake toward A$6,600, and feature spins cost nothing, so they count for nothing. Higher stakes mean fewer spins but more of your balance on each one.

Conditions that run in parallel

The 200 first-stage spins appear only once the A$110 has been staked one time, and whatever they win faces its own 40× and the A$300 cap. Separately, the account terms (v2.3) make you turn every deposit over three times before money linked to it can leave your account: A$330 here, bonus or no bonus.

Stage two, priced the same way

Each stage is its own sum. Deposit A$220 with VEGAS2 and the 100% match adds A$220. Forty times that is A$8,800, or 1,100 spins at A$8, roughly 157 a day, while the deposit carries A$660 of three-times turnover. The offer only starts after the first bonus is finished, has lapsed or was declined, since you can hold just one at a time.

The VegasNow A$8 stake limit on Olympus spins

With any bonus on your account, A$8 a spin is the most you may stake. The limit is not reserved for the welcome stages. It applies equally to reloads from our weekly promotions, such as the Tuesday Lucky 7s Load Up of 77% up to A$77, and to bonuses bought with loyalty points. Fix the stake in the bet menu before spinning and confirm it again whenever you hop to another version.

Two features of this game work against the rule. A long tumble chain or a fat multiplier total can turn a small stake into a large payment, and that tempts a bigger stake straight after. Meanwhile the Super Scatter numbers above show that A$8 is already plenty for the top awards to dwarf the A$5,000 cap. Going over A$8 while the bonus is live buys nothing you could keep and puts you in breach of the terms.

A quick stake check

  • Bonus live? The bonus area of your account will say.
  • Bet display at A$8 or below?
  • Just switched version, browser or device? Look again.
  • Big win a moment ago? Leave the stake alone until the wagering is over.

What Olympus play earns in VegasNow loyalty points

Points in our seven-level, Las Vegas themed programme come from real-money play only, and the rate depends on the game type. Pokies are quickest: each A$25 staked adds one redeemable point and one status point. Roulette pays a point per A$100, and blackjack and baccarat a point per A$250. All three Olympus versions earn at the pokie rate, and because points track turnover rather than results, a good night and a bad night of equal size score the same.

Real-money Olympus stakesSpins at A$2.20PointsWhat the points buy
A$55025022Below the 200-point minimum
A$2,2001,00088Still below the minimum
A$5,000About 2,273200A$5 bonus at Golden Glimmer
A$50,000About 22,7272,000A$60 if saved, against A$50 from ten A$5 lots

Points-bought bonuses carry 40× wagering, so an A$5 exchange needs A$200 of qualifying play, or 250 spins at A$0.80. Rates improve as you climb. At Parisian Palace Las Vegas, 750 points convert to A$20, and at Bella Vista, 100,000 points convert to A$5,000. Points and bonus wagering are tracked on separate ledgers, so one tells you nothing about the other.

Status points decide your level. Golden Glimmer II starts at 600, which is A$15,000 of pokie stakes or about 6,818 Olympus spins at A$2.20, and Golden Glimmer III starts at 2,000, or A$50,000. The highest published thresholds, 500,000 for Gondola Grand I and 5,000,000 for Bella Vista, equal A$12,500,000 and A$125,000,000 of pokie stakes. These are turnover figures, not losses, and the levels in between are not published. Our VIP and loyalty page covers the full programme and the Sin City VIP Lounge, where membership is by invitation.

Common Gates of Olympus mistakes, and how to sidestep them

  • One RTP for all three. 96.50% is the original's figure; the other two show theirs in the info panel.
  • Multiplying the multipliers. 5× plus 25× is 30×, not 125×.
  • Treating tumbles as extra turnover. A chain is one paid stake, and only that stake counts.
  • Relying on feature spins to clear a bonus. No stake means no wagering credit.
  • Upping the stake after a big hit. Above A$8 with a bonus live is a breach, whatever the last spin returned.
  • Ignoring the cap. An award from three or four Super Scatters won with a deposit bonus is held to A$5,000 per offer.
  • Rushing stage two. VEGAS2 cannot start while the first bonus is still open.
  • Seeing patterns in a dry spell. Every spin is decided fresh, so a long gap without the feature makes it no more likely.

Gates of Olympus on your phone through VegasNow

Olympus plays in the mobile browser, because VegasNow is a website rather than a store-listed app. You will not find us on Apple's or Google's stores, and we offer no APK, so be wary of any file that claims otherwise. For one-tap access on an iPhone, tap Share in Safari, then Add to Home Screen, leaving Open as Web App on for full screen. On Android, Chrome's More menu holds the Install option. Both routes are covered on our mobile page.

The login screen is the one you use on a computer, search lists the same three versions, and the A$8 limit follows you onto the phone whenever a bonus is live. Touchscreen bet buttons are easy to nudge, so check the stake after each version switch.

Playing Olympus within your limits at VegasNow

Olympus is chance from start to finish. A chain that stalls or a long run with no multiplier does not mean a payout is coming, and staking more is a poor response to losses. Settle a budget and a time limit before the first spin, then lock the budget in with a deposit limit in your VegasNow account. Self-exclusion lives in those settings too if you want a longer break.

Gates of Olympus at VegasNow: questions and answers

Is the 1000 version just the original under a new name?

No. Gates of Olympus 1000 has its own lobby entry and its own rules. The 96.50% RTP and the 15-spin feature described here belong to the original, so open the 1000 version's info panel for its figures.

Which Olympus version has a published RTP?

The original, for which Pragmatic Play lists 96.50%. Treat that as a long-run average over a huge number of spins, not a target for one session. We quote no RTP for the 1000 or Super Scatter versions.

Do Olympus multipliers multiply each other?

No, they are summed. Each symbol can be worth up to 500×, and 2×, 10× and 100× on screen together give 112×, which is then applied to the win.

How much can Super Scatters pay at a stake of A$1.20?

One to four Super Scatters in the feature award 100×, 500×, 5,000× or 50,000× the stake, so A$120, A$600, A$6,000 or A$60,000 at A$1.20. The 50,000× award is the version's published maximum.

Will Olympus spins clear my welcome bonus at the full rate?

Yes, at 100%, provided your version is not on the exceptions list in the bonus terms. The requirement is 40× the bonus, to be met within 7 days.

What stake limit applies to Olympus while I hold a bonus?

A$8 a spin on all three versions, for as long as any bonus is open. That includes reloads and bonuses bought with points.

How fast do Olympus spins earn loyalty points?

One redeemable and one status point for every A$25 of real-money stakes. A$1,000 earns 40, and the 200-point minimum exchange, worth A$5 at Golden Glimmer, takes A$5,000.

Is there a VegasNow app for playing Olympus?

Not a store app or an APK. Use the mobile browser and save the site to your Home Screen from Safari or Chrome. The lobby then opens like an app, with the same login and bonus rules.
