House edge in crash games explained
The average share of every bet the casino keeps over the long run, equal to 100% minus RTP. In crash games it's built into the crash-point formula and applies equally to every cash-out target.

Why it matters
Quick KES example: KSh 100 cashed out at 3x returns KSh 300. Topping up? Start with M-Pesa deposits.
It’s the reason no betting system can win long term: every bet loses the edge on average.
In practice
Crash games usually carry edges of 1–5%, depending on the game and the RTP setting the casino chooses. Because rounds are fast, the edge adds up quickly in money terms. Multiply your total stakes by the edge to see your expected cost.
Example
At a 3% edge, KSh 10,000 wagered loses about KSh 300 on average.
