Game contribution percentages determine how much your wagers count towards wagering requirements. A 50% contribution means you need to wager twice as much. Always verify terms directly with the casino.

Picking more numbers makes it tougher to hit them all - but payouts increase
Prize tables differ massively between casinos - shop around before you play
Keno carries one of the steepest house edges of any casino game
Responsible Gambling Reminder

Online Keno - How I Review Casinos That Offer It

Keno's a lottery-style classic you'll recognise from clubs and pubs around NZ. Pick your lucky numbers from 80, watch 20 get drawn, and chase massive payouts for modest stakes-even if the house edge runs higher than pokies.

Player Tips

01
Tip #1
Stick to 4-8 Numbers
Sweet spot for hit frequency and payout. Picking 15 requires far too many catches.
02
Tip #2
Compare Paytables
A 10-spot might pay 1,000× at one casino, 3,000× at another. Always shop around.
03
Tip #3
Set a Session Budget
Rounds fly by (30-60 seconds), and the edge is steep (8-15%). Use a stop-loss.
04
Tip #4
Try Multi-Card Keno
Play several cards with different picks. More shots at a win, but costs scale up.

Keno - Key Terms

Spot
Each number you mark. Eight picks = an '8-spot' game.
Catch
When your number matches one that's drawn.
Paytable
The prize chart showing payouts per catches. Varies casino to casino.
Power Keno
If the first drawn number's yours, all wins are quadrupled.
Super Keno
Catch the last drawn number for multiplied winnings.
Quick Pick
Let the computer pick randomly. Same odds as choosing yourself.

Online Keno

A lottery-style game made for instant action. Online keno gives you draws on demand, bets from $0.10 to $100+, and paytables that often beat what you'll find at the TAB or local venues.

How the Game Works

Pick 1 to 15 numbers from a board of 80. The RNG draws 20. Your payout depends on how many you match. Some versions throw in multipliers or progressive jackpots for extra excitement.

House Edge

Sits between 5 - 25% depending on how many spots you pick and the paytable structure. Choosing 4 to 8 spots usually gives you the best odds. I'd recommend having a look at the full paytable before you lock in your stake.
