How to play Aviator: a step-by-step guide

A walkthrough of the interface and round logic, step by step — from placing a bet to cashing out. Worth reading before you open the demo, so the first few rounds make sense right away.

Want to try it hands-on right away? Open the free Aviator demo in another tab and follow along as you read.

Step 1. Place your bet

Before each round starts, a betting window opens — usually around 5 seconds. During this window you enter an amount and confirm your bet. Aviator's signature feature is the dual bet: you can activate two independent bet slots in the same round, for example one sized for a fast, conservative cash-out and the other held longer for a bigger multiplier.

The bet is already placed (note the "Cancel" button instead of "Bet"), auto cash-out is set to x1.70

Step 2. Take-off and the rising multiplier

Once the betting window closes, the round begins: the plane takes off and the on-screen multiplier starts climbing from 1.00x. The growth speed and crash point are determined in advance by the algorithm (see provably fair) — there is no way to predict the crash point mid-flight, and the current multiplier value gives no extra information about what happens next.

The multiplier keeps climbing — the button on the left already shows what you'd collect if you hit it right now (296 USD on a 200 stake)

Step 3. Cash out in time

While the plane is airborne, the "Cash Out" button is active — pressing it locks in your winnings as bet × current multiplier. If you've set an auto cash-out at a specific value for one of your bets, the system will do it for you automatically, even if you look away from the screen.

This is what shows up right after hitting "Cash Out" (or when auto cash-out triggers) — confirming the multiplier and the win amount

If you don't hit "Cash Out" before the crash, the bet is lost entirely. This applies independently to each of your two bets if you're using the dual-bet mode.

Step 4. The round ends — the next one begins

After the crash, the multiplier and round result get added to the history (usually shown as a strip of recent values at the top of the screen), and the betting window for the next round opens almost immediately.

"Flew away!" — the plane crashed at 2.83x. If you hadn't cashed out by then, that bet is gone
