What you will find here
Every edition carries the same set of pages, written for its own country rather than pushed through a translator. On the main Aviator game page we cover how a round is settled, the declared return, where Spribe holds certificates and registrations, and why predictors cannot function. The free play credits version gets a page of its own, and so does the apps, downloads and APK question, which pulls more search traffic than anything else about this game and more bad advice along with it. On the deposits and withdrawals page we handle the money: Interac, identity checks and bonus rollover.
Beside those sit what we have written on staying in control, this page, a page for getting in touch, and the legal pages covering privacy, cookies and terms of use.
The eleven editions are a global English one plus Canada, India, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Spain, France and Australia. They differ in considerably more than language. Whether online casino play is lawful, whether Spribe holds a licence or a registration in that market, the provincial or national helpline and the tax position are all local questions, and getting any of them wrong would make everything built on top of them worthless.
Canada hands us one fact the other editions cannot carry. Gambling here is regulated province by province, and in Ontario the maker of this game is a registered gaming-related supplier with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, registration GRSM1292973. The number sits on Spribe's own licences page, and we print it because it is the single most useful thing a Canadian player can know about the Aviator game.
How we keep these pages current
We keep the method narrow, because this subject attracts an enormous volume of invented detail.
Facts about the game come from Spribe's own pages: the product page for the declared 97% return, the game type and the supported devices; the company page for the launch date and the licences, certificates and registrations; and the provably fair page for how a round result is produced and checked. Where Spribe publishes no number, we publish none. That covers the maximum win, the maximum multiplier and the stake range, each of which the individual operator configures and shows in the game's information panel. Figures for those circulate widely, contradict each other and cite nothing, which is reason enough to leave them out.
Facts about law, licensing, registration and tax come from the regulator or the government body itself, never from another gambling site. For Canada that means the AGCO and iGaming Ontario in Ontario, and the relevant provincial body everywhere else. Where a register shows something more complicated than a simple yes or no, we describe the complication instead of smoothing it away. Where a claim could only be traced back to a low-quality source, we drop it, even when it would have made a cleaner sentence. On this subject that happens more often than it should, and the gaps it leaves behind are deliberate.
Arithmetic worked from a published figure gets labelled as arithmetic. The link between the declared return and the chance of a round reaching a chosen multiplier is calculated from the 97% figure rather than measured in play, and we say so wherever we use it.
We date a page when we check it, so the date at the top is the date of the last check rather than the day the words were first written. A page that has not changed still gets re-read, because the usual reason a gambling page goes wrong is not a bad edit but the world moving underneath it.
The sources we rely on
Game facts come from Spribe's published pages. Legal status, registration and tax come from the regulator or government body for the province in question, which for Ontario means the AGCO and iGaming Ontario. Helpline numbers and self-exclusion details come from the organizations that operate them, such as ConnexOntario. Stake limits, maximum win and anything else an operator configures come from the game's own information panel, the only place the figure that applies to a given account is shown.
We read official sources in the original wherever an edition needs them, because a regulator's own wording is frequently narrower than the summary that circulates about it. A rule permitting a category of game is not a rule permitting this one, and that distinction decides what some of these editions can say at all.
A figure that cannot be traced back to one of those sources is left out. Two that circulate widely for Aviator, a maximum multiplier and a maximum cash win, were checked against Spribe's own pages and against the testing bodies named on them and could be traced to neither, so no number for either appears anywhere here. The same goes for round-timing figures and crash-distribution tables, which no source reachable from Canada publishes with a method attached.
How we are funded
Some links here lead to gambling operators, and we may be paid when somebody opens an account through one of them. Those links are marked as promotional and carry the nofollow and sponsored attributes, and a short disclosure line appears on every page that uses them.
Commission does not change the figures or the legal position on any page.
Corrections
Facts go out of date, licensing and provincial facts fastest of all, and this subject moves more than most. If something here is wrong or has been overtaken, we want to hear about it. Write to us at the contact address with the page, the claim and ideally the source that contradicts it, and we will check it against the original and correct it where it stands.
A reported correction is checked against the primary document rather than the page that reported it, which in Canada usually means the AGCO registration record, the provincial statute or regulation itself, or Spribe's own licences page. Where the original confirms the report, the page is changed and the date at the top moves to the day of that check. Where the original is narrower than the report, the narrower wording is what goes on the page. Where it cannot be settled either way, the claim comes off the page rather than staying up with a hedge attached.
Casino accounts, deposits and payout disputes are beyond us, because the account, the balance and the payment relationship all sit with the operator. That route runs through the operator's own support first and then the regulator behind its registration.
