THE VIP Guide: Rules, Collect Feature, Duel Multiplier and Free Spins
By the CasinoDemo editorial team · Updated 2026-11-09 · How we review
THE VIP is a Betsoft casino-lounge slot built around cash chips. Line up chips from the left and you collect their values; add a Player versus Banker duel symbol and those values can be multiplied by up to 100x. Four fixed jackpots sit beside the reels, topped by a Grand worth 4,000x the bet.
We played the free demo, read the full in-game paytable and bought the free spins bonus. This guide explains each feature, gives the paytable as multiples of your bet, and reports exactly what our single bonus buy paid at a €2 stake.

How THE VIP works
The rules describe a 5-reel, 4-row video slot with 1024 ways to win. Wins pay for matching symbols on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel, only the highest win per way is paid, and wins on different ways are added together. The scatter pays anywhere and its win is added to the way wins.
The paytable updates with your bet. At €2, here is what five, four and three of a kind pay, as multiples of the bet. The VIP man is the top symbol at 8x, 2.4x and 1.6x. The woman pays 2.4x, 1.6x and 0.8x, and the gold watch 1.6x, 1.2x and 0.8x. The royal flush cards pay 1.2x, 0.8x and 0.4x, and the 100,000 plaques 0.8x, 0.4x and 0.2x. Dice, cash and poker chips pay 0.4x, 0.2x and 0.08x, while the roulette wheel and martini pay 0.2x, 0.08x and 0.04x. Five scatters pay 5x, four pay 2x and three pay 1x.
The demo let us bet from €0.25 to €40 a spin, with €2 as the default and €1,000 of play money.
Collect Feature and jackpots
The silver chip is the BONUS symbol and can land on any reel. If 2 or more adjacent BONUS and/or DUEL MULTIPLIER symbols land in a row starting from the leftmost reel, the COLLECT FEATURE triggers and the values of the winning BONUS symbols are added together and paid.
At a €2 bet, chip values range from €0.80 to €400.00, so 0.4x to 200x. A chip can also carry a jackpot: MINI pays €24 (12x), MINOR €48 (24x), MAJOR €240 (120x) and GRAND €8,000 (4,000x). Each locked jackpot chip awards its prize.
Duel Multiplier
The DUEL MULTIPLIER symbol shows a PLAYER value and a BANKER value. It appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4. When it is part of a Collect Feature, the two multipliers face off and either Player or Banker wins. The winning multiplier is applied to the values of all winning BONUS symbols.
Possible values are 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, 10x, 20x, 25x, 50x and 100x. If more than one duel symbol is involved, their winning values are added together. The duel never touches standard way wins; it only multiplies chips.
Wilds, VIP Case and Cash Bonus Meter
The WILD is a stack of gold coins on reels 2, 3 and 4. It substitutes for all symbols except BONUS, DUEL MULTIPLIER and SCATTER. Every wild that lands is collected by either the VIP CASE or the CASH BONUS METER.
The VIP Case works only in the base game. When it collects a wild there is a random chance it triggers, scattering BONUS symbols onto the reels; a new chip landing on an existing one adds the two values. A triggered VIP Case always leads to the Collect Feature, but it never scatters jackpot chips or duel symbols.
The Cash Bonus Meter starts at 5x, 6x, 7x or 8x your total bet, and each wild it collects adds 1x, up to a maximum of 20x. Each bet size keeps its own meter value. The meter pays out only during free spins: its value is added at the end of each Collect Feature there, it does not change during free spins, and it resets when free spins end, but only if at least one Collect Feature happened.
Free Spins
The diamond SCATTER appears on all reels. Three award 10 free spins, four award 15 and five award 25. Each extra scatter that lands during free spins adds 1 more spin. BONUS symbols land more often, a DUEL MULTIPLIER symbol is guaranteed on reel 3 on every spin, and the Cash Bonus Meter value is added after every Collect Feature. Free spins play at the triggering bet.
That combination is what makes the feature tick. Every collect gets a multiplier, then the meter on top, so a well-filled meter turns even small chip hauls into decent wins.
Bonus Buy and our demo result
THE VIP has a single buy option. It costs 66x the bet (€132 at €2) and gives 10, 15 or 25 free spins at random, with a randomly generated Cash Bonus Meter value of 5x to 20x. The menu does not show a separate RTP for the buy.
Our €132 buy landed the minimum 10 free spins with the meter at €14, which is 7x the bet. The three trigger scatters paid €2 straight away. Scatters added 1 extra spin three times during the round. Most spins were quiet; the best moment was a Collect with a Banker x2 duel that paid €12.80 before the meter was added. Free spins finished at €77.36, so the whole buy returned €79.36, about 40x the bet and well short of the price. That is a single round, not an average, and it shows how much a free spins round leans on a big chip or a high duel value.
RTP, max win and volatility
The in-game paytable does not print an RTP. Our catalogue lists THE VIP at 96.05% with Medium/High volatility, and 96.05 is also the minimum RTP value the demo server sends. The rules cap the maximum win at 10,000x your bet per round; when it is reached the round ends and any remaining features are forfeited. The intro screen shows the same 10,000x.
Our verdict
THE VIP is a tidy collect slot with a clever hook: wilds feed a meter you only get to cash during free spins, so every base game wild matters a little. The duel symbols are the real swing factor, since a 50x or 100x on a few chips is where the big wins live. A listed 96.05% RTP and Medium/High volatility make it a bit gentler than many hold-and-collect games. The 66x buy is fair to test in the demo, but our one round shows it can easily return less than half its price.
