Autoplay is a convenience tool, not a strategy. Used correctly, it enforces pre‑defined limits and removes some impulse clicks; used badly, it hides how fast you’re cycling through bets. This guide walks through the actual Pragmatic Play autoplay options, how Rexbet configures them, and concrete numeric setups you can copy.
What Pragmatic Play autoplay actually does
On modern Pragmatic Play titles like Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza, and Sugar Rush, the autoplay panel controls:
- Number of spins: typically 10–1000
- Loss limit: mandatory in most regulated markets
- Single‑win cap: optional
- Balance‑up stop: optional
- Turbo / Quick Spin: speed modifiers
At Rexbet, the default client uses the full Pragmatic Play panel where allowed by jurisdiction. That means you should see:
- A spin count selector (10, 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000)
- A loss limit slider, usually starting around 10× your current bet
- Optional checkboxes for:
- Stop on single win ≥ X
- Stop if balance increases by X
- Stop on feature (free spins / bonus) hit
What autoplay does not change:
- RTP: Gates of Olympus remains at its configured RTP (for example 96.50% on the main setting) whether spins are manual or automated.
- Volatility: a 5,000× max‑win game stays high variance.
- Bet size: unless you manually adjust between batches, the stake per spin is fixed.
Mapping autoplay to an actual budget
You should define your session in money first, then translate that into autoplay parameters.
Take a concrete example:
- Game: Sweet Bonanza
- RTP at Rexbet: 96.48% (standard setting)
- Bet size: €0.60 per spin
- Session budget: €60 (100× bet)
- Target session length: ~30–40 minutes
Step 1: Set realistic spin count
On Sweet Bonanza, with 20–25 spins per minute at normal speed:
- 100 spins ≈ 4–5 minutes
- 250 spins ≈ 10–12 minutes
- 500 spins ≈ 20–25 minutes
If you want ~30 minutes without turbo:
- First batch: 300 spins
- Second batch (if bankroll allows): another 200–300 spins
So in the autoplay panel, you’d start with 300 spins.
Step 2: Configure the loss limit
Loss limit is the maximum net loss from the moment you start that autoplay batch.
With a €60 total budget and €0.60 bet:
- Total budget in bets: 100×
- Reasonable loss limit per batch: 40–50× bet
For the first 300‑spin batch, set:
- Loss limit: €24–€30 (40–50× €0.60)
That way, even if variance is bad, you’ll stop with at least half your planned budget intact.
Step 3: Single‑win and balance‑up stops
Two more useful controls:
- Stop on single win ≥ X
- Stop if balance increases by X
With a €60 starting balance and €0.60 bet:
- Single‑win stop at €18–€24 (30–40× bet):
- Triggers on a mid‑sized hit so you can reassess.
- Balance‑up stop at €18–€24 profit:
- For example, stop if balance reaches €78–€84.
This doesn’t change RTP, but it forces a pause after a good run instead of auto‑recycling winnings.
Turbo, Quick Spin, and perceived loss speed
Pragmatic Play typically offers two speed modifiers:
- Quick Spin: shortens win animations, keeps reels visible.
- Turbo Spin: heavily cuts delays; spins feel almost instant.
At Rexbet, availability depends on your region’s regulation, but where enabled the hierarchy is:
- Normal: ~10–15 spins/minute
- Quick: ~20–25 spins/minute
- Turbo: 30+ spins/minute
On Gates of Olympus at €1.00 per spin:
- Normal, 15 spins/minute → €15 wagered/minute
- Turbo, 35 spins/minute → €35 wagered/minute
Same RTP, same volatility, but your losses and wins are realized more than twice as fast. If you pair turbo with 500–1000 autoplay spins and no tight loss limit, you can cycle hundreds of bets before you consciously notice.
For most players:
- Use Quick Spin if you dislike slow reels.
- Avoid Turbo when using large spin counts; reserve it for small, tightly capped batches.
High‑volatility titles: tighter caps, smaller batches
Pragmatic Play’s high‑volatility games like Sugar Rush, Starlight Princess, and Gates of Olympus can easily go 200+ spins with minimal returns, then spike with a 200×+ hit.
That means autoplay needs to be more conservative.
Example with Gates of Olympus at Rexbet:
- RTP setting: 96.50%
- Bet: €0.40
- Bankroll: €40 (100× bet)
Recommended autoplay setup:
- Spin count: 150–200
- Loss limit: €12–€16 (30–40× bet)
- Single‑win stop: €12–€16 (30–40× bet)
- Balance‑up stop: €12–€20 profit
- Speed: Quick Spin on, Turbo off
This structure mirrors a disciplined manual session: you get a defined block of spins, a maximum damage cap, and an automatic pause after a meaningful hit.

Feature stops and bonus buys
Most newer Pragmatic Play slots include:
- Stop autoplay on feature: halts when you trigger free spins or a bonus.
On games where Rexbet offers bonus buys (e.g., Sugar Rush, The Dog House Megaways, Sweet Bonanza):
- The buy cost is typically 100×–150× bet.
- The game RTP may differ between base game and buy feature.
If you intend to use bonus buys sporadically:
- Always enable stop on feature so you can decide what to do with the result.
- After a large bonus payout (e.g., 200× bet or more), consider reducing your next autoplay spin count and tightening loss limits to avoid giving it straight back.

A reusable autoplay template
You can treat these as baseline templates and adjust for your own bet size and risk tolerance.
Medium‑volatility game (e.g., Sweet Bonanza)
- Bankroll: 100× bet
- Spin count: 250–300
- Loss limit: 40–50× bet
- Single‑win stop: 30–40× bet
- Balance‑up stop: 30–40× bet profit
- Speed: Quick Spin on, Turbo off
High‑volatility game (e.g., Gates of Olympus, Sugar Rush)
- Bankroll: 100× bet
- Spin count: 150–200
- Loss limit: 30–40× bet
- Single‑win stop: 30–40× bet
- Balance‑up stop: 30–50× bet profit
- Speed: Quick Spin on, Turbo off; no long turbo sessions
The core idea is consistent across Rexbet’s Pragmatic Play catalogue: define a fixed number of spins, pre‑set maximum loss and meaningful‑win thresholds, and let autoplay enforce decisions you made before the reels started moving.
