Avi in South Africa: PopOK Gaming's Crash Game with Prize Storm Free Bets
Avi is PopOK Gaming's crash game, released on 24 February 2025; Spribe's Aviator is a different game from a different studio. A stake goes in before a biplane takes off, the multiplier climbs as it flies, and the stake is lost unless you cash out before the flight ends. PopOK gives a 96% RTP and a top multiplier of x10,000, lists "Two Bet Options" among the game's features and adds Prize Storm, free bets a casino can hand out inside the game.

How an Avi round works
PopOK Gaming's product sheet sets out a round in four steps. You set your stake before take-off. The plane climbs and the multiplier rises with it. You can cash out at any moment and lock in your stake multiplied by the current multiplier. If the plane crashes before you cash out, the stake is lost.
The studio describes the end of each flight as random: in its own words, the goal is "to cash out before the flight randomly ends". It gives x10,000 as the highest multiplier. That is PopOK's figure for how far the multiplier can climb, not a promise that any flight will get near it.
Two bets, Auto and Auto Play in the studio's screenshots
The product sheet lists "Two Bet Options" and "Auto Cashout" among Avi's features. What follows is what PopOK's own screenshots of the game show.
- Two bet panels. Each panel has a stake field with minus and plus, four amount buttons, a Bet and an Auto tab and its own BET button. In three of the studio's pictures the left button reads CASHOUT while the right one still reads BET, so by our reading each panel carries a bet of its own.
- Auto Play options. The window sets the number of rounds (10 is selected) and has three switches, each with an amount in dollars: one labelled Auto Play options, then "Stop if cash increases by" and "Stop if single win exceeds". Neither named stop is a loss limit, so set your own: 10 rounds of one R5 bet put up to R50 at risk (our arithmetic).
- Game Limits, Game Rules and Provably Fair settings. The game menu in the studio's screenshot lists all three, next to My bet History and Game Server. PopOK's pages do not reproduce the game's rules, so open Game Rules and Game Limits at your casino before the first stake.
Prize Storm: free bets your casino can send inside Avi
PopOK calls Prize Storm "an exclusive feature within Avi" built on "dynamic free bet rewards". Operators can "distribute randomly or target specific players", and players "can claim and use free bets directly in Avi".
In the studio's screenshots a Prize Storm window shows 02m:48s under its title and rows of 1 $ free bets, some with a Claim button and some marked Claimed. A Free Bets window lists each bet with an expiry and a status: a Play button, Claimed, Active or Expired.
PopOK's FAQ says operators "have full control over Prize Storm via the PopOK Gaming Backoffice" and "can customize promo limits, duration, targeting, and more". So whether a storm reaches you, how much it holds and how long it runs are your casino's settings. PopOK's home page says its in-game promotions are "designed to maximize player retention": decide how long you will play before a storm appears.

Avi, Aviator and Aviatrix are three different games
Spribe makes Aviator, and Aviatrix comes from a studio of that name. Avi is PopOK Gaming's, with figures of its own, and PopOK makes other crash games too, among them Crash Infinity, Hezarfen Crash and Fortune Crash, so check both the name and the studio on the tile.
Avi predictors cannot see where the flight ends 🚫
A predictor app or a paid signals channel for Avi would have to know when the plane goes down before the round starts. PopOK's own words are that the flight "randomly ends", and a random end point is exactly what such a product cannot foresee. It can still cost you a fee, or your account if you hand over the login: keep that password for the casino itself.
Cash-out targets and stakes, in rand
No staking pattern or system beats the house edge: changing the stake changes how much is at risk, not what each rand returns on average. The rand figures below are our arithmetic.
- Low targets. Cashing out at 1.25x on R20 adds R5 when it works and costs R20 when the plane goes down first, so one early crash wipes out four wins.
- High targets. Waiting for 10x turns R10 into R100 when it lands and costs R10 each time the flight ends earlier. The studio publishes no figures for how often a flight reaches any given multiplier.
- Both panels at once. Two bets put two stakes into one flight. If each panel cashes out on its own, as its separate button in the studio's pictures suggests, R5 taken at 1.50x and R5 left for 5x in a flight that ends at 2x return R7.50 and lose R5: R10 in, R7.50 back.

Open Game Rules at your casino and set a loss limit before the first flight.
Avi FAQ ❓
Is Avi a version of Aviator?
No. Aviator comes from Spribe; Avi is PopOK Gaming's own game, released on 24 February 2025, with a 96% RTP and a x10,000 top multiplier by PopOK's figures. Many crash games share a plane and a cash-out button, so one game's rules and numbers say nothing about another's.
What is Prize Storm in Avi?
A free-bet tool built into the game. The casino sends free bets at random or to players it chooses, and they are claimed and played inside Avi. PopOK says operators customise the promo limits, duration and targeting, so the amounts and timing are your casino's.
What is the highest multiplier in Avi?
PopOK gives x10,000 on its game page and product sheet, and its July 2025 news says the multiplier "can go as high as x10,000". That is the studio's figure for how far the multiplier can climb, not a promise that a flight will reach it.
Which licence does PopOK Gaming's site name?
Its footer says the site is operated by Soft Construct (Malta) Limited, licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority under MGA/B2B/286/2014 and by the UK Gambling Commission, account 40767. Both registers list that company, and the MGA's seal page lists popokgaming.com among the licence's websites. PopOK's pages also list South Africa under "Our Certifications", with no board or number.
