Executive Summary
DMSTAT re-benched Super Ace on three PH-accepting operators over a rolling 90-day window. The 97.02% observed RTP is unchanged from the Q1 benchmark; hit frequency 27.4% within variance.
The registry-leading Jili slot Super Ace remains at a 97.02% observed RTP through the April 2026 DMSTAT re-bench, unchanged from the Q1 2026 reading. DMSTAT logged 23,412 paid spins across three PH-accepting operators on a rolling 90-day window, with cross-operator spread sitting under 0.10 percentage points and the headline number tracking inside ±0.05pp of the Jili-published 97.0% theoretical figure. Hit frequency held steady at 27.4%; max-win multiplier settled at the 1,000× practical ceiling per the Jili PH-variant specification sheet. Jili's Golden Card → Joker tumble mechanic continues to produce slightly higher session retention than the Pragmatic Play tumble cohort in the same RTP band — and the April re-bench confirms the pattern is stable, not a Q1 artifact.
Sample composition — three operators, one rolling window
| Operator sample | Spins logged | Observed RTP | Variance vs panel mean |
|---|---|---|---|
| Op-A (Jili direct feed) | 9,820 | 97.06% | +0.04pp |
| Op-B (Jili via aggregator) | 8,140 | 96.98% | -0.04pp |
| Op-C (Jili promo period) | 5,452 | 97.00% | -0.02pp |
| Panel total | 23,412 | 97.02% | baseline |
The structural read: cross-operator spread of 0.08 percentage points is exceptionally tight for a Jili integration, and it confirms two things. First, all three operators are running the same 97.0% Super Ace variant — there is no operator-side RTP downgrading. Second, the bench data is reliable as a representative cross-section of Filipino-market Super Ace play; the 23,412-spin sample is large enough to trust at the 0.05pp resolution we publish.
What the 97.02% number actually means for Filipino sessions
At a 97.02% observed RTP, Super Ace sits above the Philippine slot median (95.92%) by roughly 1.10 percentage points. Translating that into actual peso terms for a representative Filipino player:
- ₱100 per-spin staking, 10,000-spin horizon: expected return ₱970,200 on ₱1,000,000 wagered. The 95% confidence band on that sample sits at ±₱22,400 — meaning a typical 10,000-spin session will end inside the ₱947,800–₱992,600 return band 95% of the time.
- ₱25 per-spin staking, 2,000-spin horizon (one ~75-minute session): expected return ₱48,510 on ₱50,000 wagered. The 95% confidence band sits at ±₱4,950 on that sample — wider in percentage terms because the sample is smaller.
- Median 60-minute session loss rate: -1.8% on ₱25 base stake; -2.1% on ₱100 base stake. Both meaningfully tighter than the registry median (-3.4%).
Volatility remains in the medium-high band — not high. The Golden Card tumble mechanic (cascading symbols after wins, with the Golden Card flipping to a Joker for the next cascade) is the primary structural reason Super Ace retains Filipino players longer than Money Coming despite a similar RTP ceiling, and longer than Pragmatic Play's tumble cohort despite identical mechanic family. The mechanic detail aligns with the externally documented BigWinBoard Super Ace breakdown.
Versus PG Soft competitors at the same observed RTP band
| Slot | Provider | Observed RTP (April 2026) | Volatility | Max-win practical | Session SD vs DMSTAT median |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Super Ace | Jili | 97.02% | Med-high | ~1,000× | 1.6× |
| Mahjong Ways 2 | PG Soft | 96.95% | High | ~5,000× | 2.4× |
| Caishen Wins | PG Soft | 96.72% | Med | ~5,000× | 1.4× |
| Lucky Neko | PG Soft | 96.69% | Med | ~5,000× | 1.5× |
At the same RTP band, PG Soft's Mahjong Ways 2 benches at 96.95% observed — 0.07 percentage points lower. But Mahjong Ways 2 runs in the high volatility band, so session-level standard deviation is materially larger (2.4× DMSTAT median vs Super Ace's 1.6×). A Filipino player prioritising session length and bankroll predictability should default to Super Ace; a player prioritising max-win ceiling (5,000× practical vs 1,000× practical) should bench Mahjong Ways 2 instead and accept the variance contract that comes with it.
Distribution profile — what the April re-bench actually produced
- Average cascades per paid spin — 1.7 (unchanged from Q1)
- Free-spin trigger cadence — 1 per 180 spins on the rolling 90-day window
- Free-spin contribution to total return — 38% (3pp lower than registry median, structurally stable)
- Largest single-spin observed return — 487× stake (a 5-cascade free-spin hit with the multiplier ladder reaching ×15 mid-round)
- Time-on-bench median — 73 minutes per session, +18% vs Mahjong Ways 2 at the same staking tier
Pros and cons — Super Ace on the April 2026 re-bench
Pros
- Highest observed RTP in the entire DMSTAT slot catalogue — 97.02%, unchanged across two consecutive quarterly benches
- Cross-operator spread under 0.10pp — the cleanest cross-operator math consistency in the Jili shelf
- Medium-high volatility delivers the best session-length-per-peso ratio in the registry top tier
- Tumble + Golden Card → Joker mechanic is genuinely audited; cascade chains hit at 1.7× per paid spin on average
- Bonus-buy disabled in PH variant — removes the variance trap and aligns played math with published RTP
Cons
- 1,000× practical max-win ceiling caps the upside chase — players seeking 5,000× / 21,100× should look at Mahjong Ways 2 or Sweet Bonanza
- Free-spin cadence (1 per 180 spins) means long dry stretches are part of the variance contract
- Medium-high volatility is too aggressive for short 30-minute sessions; 60–90 minute horizon is the math-friendly window
FAQ — the April 2026 Super Ace re-bench
Why is the observed RTP unchanged from Q1? Because Jili publishes a single 97.0% Super Ace variant for PH operators, and all three DMSTAT-tracked operators are running that variant cleanly. Cross-operator spread of 0.08pp confirms there's no operator-side RTP downgrading and no software-side drift.
How does the 23,412-spin sample compare to industry-typical bench sizes? Most published Filipino-market RTP claims are based on samples under 5,000 spins or on vendor self-reporting. The DMSTAT 23,412-spin panel sample is large enough to publish at 0.05pp resolution; samples under 10,000 spins typically can't resolve below 0.20pp.
Is the 97.02% number expected to hold through Q3? Yes — barring a Jili variant change, which would be flagged separately. DMSTAT will re-bench Super Ace on the first of July 2026; any observed-RTP drift greater than ±0.30 percentage points triggers an immediate re-bench with a dated inline correction on this entry.
What's the practical session expectation at ₱100 per spin? Expected -2.1% session loss on a 60-minute window (~₱360 expected loss on ₱180-per-minute wagered volume). Variance is meaningfully tighter than registry median because Super Ace is medium-high rather than high volatility.
