What It Costs to Buy the Bonus Feature

The single most useful thing to understand about buy-feature slots is the cost. Here's exactly what it is and what drives it.

What it costs to buy the bonus feature

Almost always a multiple of your stake, most commonly 50x to 100x. Because it's stake-linked, you control the dollar cost: a 100x buy is $20 at a $0.20 stake, $50 at $0.50, and $100 at $1. Set the stake before you open the buy panel.

What drives the price

The buy price reflects the feature's expected value — a richer bonus round costs more to buy. On Hold & Win games with big jackpots, or high-variance free-spins titles, the buy is at the top of that 50x-100x range or beyond.

Is it worth the cost?

It doesn't improve your edge — the feature-buy RTP matches the base game closely. You're paying for instant access and a known cost instead of an open-ended grind. Whether that's worth it depends on how you like to play.

Budgeting

• Decide what one buy should cost you, set the stake to match.
• Decide how many buys your session budget allows, and stop there.
• Never raise the stake to chase a bad buy.
