What kind of slot is Gift Rush?

On the reels, three matching symbols on one of five fixed paylines make a win. The paylines are the three rows and the two diagonals, read from left to right, and several can pay on the same spin. The Christmas theme appears in the Red 7, Santa hat, candy cane, gingerbread man, ornament bauble, gold bells and mitten with letter B. Gift Rush is a 3x3 video slot from BGaming.

Three BONUS symbols landing on reels 1, 2 and 3 in the same spin open the Choose your prize Bonus Game. Besides the Base Game, Gift Rush lists two features, Pick Bonus and Scatter, so read how each one works before staking.

Round steps

Gift Rush, from start to bonus

Playamo sets out each round in the order it happens, one step at a time.

  1. Gift Rush bets from A$0.10

    The reels spin at the bet you choose, from A$0.10 up to A$300. Examples on this page use A$1, A$2 and A$10, and every win scales with that bet.

  2. How does a win add up?

    Each spin fills the 3x3 grid, and the game checks five fixed paylines: three rows and two diagonals. Wins on several lines add up into one Total win.

  3. Scatter against Pick Bonus

    The base game lists two features, Scatter and Pick Bonus. Pick Bonus opens the bonus round described in the next step.

  4. Where the top win comes from

    Three BONUS symbols landing on reels 1, 2 and 3 in the same spin start the Choose your prize round. The round carries the highest published win of the game.

  5. Session limit in money

    Every spin on the reels takes the bet from your balance, so set a limit in money before the first spin. Nothing shows how long a session will last.

Cost of a purchased round

The next spin after a purchase is guaranteed to trigger the Bonus Game, priced at 80 times the bet, which is A$800 at A$10.

Which return version Playamo runs

Each spin on the reels pays back part of each stake. Return to player means the payback per A$100 staked, and single sessions vary around it. The version this site runs appears in the game rules.

Buy Bonus for the next spin

On the next spin after purchase, the Bonus Game is guaranteed to trigger. Buy Bonus is a paid option, so the round does not depend on three BONUS symbols landing.

Each spin fills the 3x3 grid, and the game checks five fixed paylines, three horizontal rows and two diagonals, evaluated left to right. Several lines can pay on the same spin, and their wins are summed into Total win.

Practice first, then play for real money with Playamo

It settles whether to practise in the demo or play for real money, and what each needs.

The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs an account with Playamo Casino and the legal age of 18+.

Play for real

Single session result, always random

Three BONUS symbols landing on reels 1, 2 and 3 in the same spin open the Choose your prize game. How often that happens is not known in advance. Each spin is random, so the result of one session is random whatever the RTP says about returns over many spins.

Symbols land on the 3x3 grid and pay along five fixed paylines on every spin. Which RTP version runs on this site is shown only in the game rules, so read the RTP on this page as a long-run figure only.

Wins on the five paylines add up into Total win, and the largest possible win is x559 of the bet. At the highest bet of A$300 that ceiling is A$167,700, and a single session may never reach it.

Before the spin starts

Gift Rush answers for the first bet

Read this before the first spin to check the maximum win, bets, RTP and the bonus purchase.

What is the maximum win in Gift Rush?

The maximum win in Gift Rush is x559 of the bet. At the A$10 example bet that is A$5,590, and at the A$300 maximum bet it is A$167,700. The figure is the top published bonus round win, so it is a ceiling, not an expected result.

What are the bet sizes for Gift Rush?

Bets in Gift Rush start at A$0.10 and reach A$300 per spin. The paytable and the examples on this page use A$1, A$2 and A$10. Every win and the Buy Bonus price scale with the bet size.

Can I try Gift Rush in demo mode first?

This page sets out the rules, paytable and bet range, so the mechanics are clear before any stake is placed. Its paytable is shown at A$1 per bet, and the lowest bet is A$0.10.

What is the RTP of Gift Rush and its versions?

Gift Rush has one RTP version, 96.07%. The RTP is calculated on A$100 staked, so the money return figure in the table is the expected return for that stake over a very long run. Any single session can end above or below it.

Can I buy the bonus in Gift Rush and what does it cost?

A Buy Bonus option is available in Gift Rush. The next spin after purchase triggers the Bonus Game, and at the A$10 example bet it costs A$800, which is 80 times the bet. The price scales with the bet, so a different bet gives a different cost.
