Sweet Bonanza in the Philippines: RTP, max win and which version you are playing
Six Sweet Bonanza slots from Pragmatic Play are on PAGCOR's approved games lists, and they do not pay the same. Pragmatic's own figures for each, read 7 November 2026, matched to PAGCOR's lists by game ID.

Six versions, six game IDs
Pragmatic Play publishes one page per game on pragmaticplay.com, with an RTP under "Basic Game Info" and a demo link carrying the game's ID. PAGCOR's lists of EGLD-approved electronic games (on its regulatory page) print the same IDs, so each version below is matched exactly, not by name.
| Version | RTP (Pragmatic) | Grid | Biggest figure on Pragmatic's page | Game ID | PAGCOR list |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sweet Bonanza | 96.48% | tumbling reels | Multipliers up to 100x in free spins; 4-6 scatters award up to 100x | vs20fruitsw | PhilWeb / Pragmatic Play (13 Aug 2026) |
| Sweet Bonanza Xmas | 96.48% | same game, festive symbols | Multipliers up to 100x in free spins | vs20sbxmas | PhilWeb / Pragmatic Play (13 Aug 2026) |
| Sweet Bonanza Super Scatter | 96.51% | tumbling reels | Four Super Scatters award "the maximum win of 50,000x" | vs20swbonsup | PhilWeb / Pragmatic Play (2 versions) (13 Aug 2026) |
| Sweet Bonanza 1000 | 96.53% | 6×5 | "Wins of up to 25,000x"; candy bomb multipliers up to 1,000x | vs20fruitswx | PhilWeb / Pragmatic Play (13 Aug 2026) |

A seventh name, Sweet Bonanza CandyLand, is on PAGCOR's separate Pragmatic Play Live list (as of 19 May 2026). It is a live game show, not one of the slots above.
What the differences mean
- RTP: the spread is 96.48% to 97.05%. Over ₱10,000 of total bets that is about ₱352 kept on average by the original and about ₱295 by Sweet Bonanza Pop (our arithmetic, long-run averages). Both still keep money on average; neither predicts a session.
- Ceilings: the original's page gives no single cap; its biggest numbers are symbol wins "up to 50x", scatters "up to 100x" and multipliers "up to 100x". The newer versions advertise 25,000x or 50,000x. A higher ceiling means wider swings, and a ceiling is reached rarely if ever. At a ₱20 stake, 25,000x would be ₱500,000; most sessions end nowhere near it.
- Grid: Sweet Bonanza Pop is a 3×5 game where 5-9+ matching symbols win, unlike the 6×5 grid where 1000 and 2500 need eight or more. A strategy video for one version does not describe another.
- Which one you opened: casinos show the name in the lobby and the game's information screen. Check it before you trust a big-win clip or a "tip": a 25,000x hit in Sweet Bonanza 1000 says nothing about the original.
How the original works, in Pragmatic's words
From Pragmatic's page: "Land 8-12+ matching symbols anywhere on the tumbling reels to win prizes, while 4-6 scatters trigger the bonus game with 10 free spins." During the feature, "multiplier symbols with values between 2x-100x can hit, and at the end of the tumbling sequence, the values of all multiplier symbols add together". In Sweet Bonanza 1000 the candy bomb multipliers go "up to 1,000x", and "Five further free spins are unlocked whenever three or more lollipops land during the bonus game".
The free spins are priced into the RTP: the game pays less on ordinary spins so that the feature can pay more. Chasing the feature does not change the house edge (how scatters work).
Sites named after the game
In our check of Google with its Philippine setting on 7 November 2026, "sweet bonanza philippines" returned videos and Facebook clips (half the top 10), review sites, a licensed brand's own promotional page, and at #10 sweetbonanza.com.ph, an address that is not on PAGCOR's lists of registered domains. A site named after a game is neither the game's maker nor a licensed casino. Start from a casino whose exact address you can find in our licence checker, and never install a "Sweet Bonanza APK" from a chat (APK warning). Only players 21 and over who are not barred may play; help is at 02-8248-9568 (24/7).

Where to play Sweet Bonanza: check the casino, not the game
PAGCOR's lists of licensed sites name game categories, not titles, so we list no casino for Sweet Bonanza. Check the casino's exact address against PAGCOR's 475 registered domains (list of 2026-10-29), then confirm on PAGCOR Guarantee.

Frequently asked questions
What is the RTP of Sweet Bonanza?
Pragmatic Play's own page for the original Sweet Bonanza gives 96.48% (read 7 November 2026). The versions differ: 96.48% (the original and Xmas) to 97.05% (Sweet Bonanza Pop). The figure in the game's information screen at your casino is the one that applies to the copy you play.
What is the max win in Sweet Bonanza?
It depends on the version. Pragmatic's page for Sweet Bonanza 1000 says it 'offers wins of up to 25,000x', Sweet Bonanza 2500 also says 25,000x, and Super Scatter says four Super Scatters award 'the maximum win of 50,000x'. The original's page gives no overall cap: symbol wins up to 50x, scatters up to 100x and multipliers up to 100x.
Is Sweet Bonanza legal in the Philippines?
The game is on PAGCOR's approved games lists for Pragmatic Play (as of 13 August 2026), along with five other Sweet Bonanza versions on that and two other lists. That approves the game, not any website: play only at an operator whose exact address is on PAGCOR's lists, and only if you are 21 or over.
Is sweetbonanza.com.ph the official site?
That address is not on PAGCOR's lists of registered domains. Pragmatic Play's own pages for the game are on pragmaticplay.com, and a site named after a game is not the game's maker or a licensed casino.
May trick ba sa Sweet Bonanza?
Wala. Random ang bawat spin at tumble. Ang RTP ay pangmatagalang average, hindi pangako sa isang session, at ang mga 'pattern' o APK na ibinebenta sa chat ay kilalang scam.
