What POP! Slots actually is

POP! Slots is a social casino app from PlayStudios, the studio behind myVEGAS Slots. It came to the App Store in 2016. You play with virtual chips only: there is no real-money gambling and chips can’t be cashed out. Like myVEGAS, it is part of the myVIP Rewards program, so playing earns loyalty points for perks at MGM Resorts and other partners.

How to play POP! Slots on your phone

  • Download POP! Slots from the App Store or Google Play and create an account to save your chips and points.
  • Collect the welcome chips and daily bonuses.
  • Enter a virtual casino, such as Bellagio, Luxor or MGM Grand, and pick a slot machine.
  • Join a tournament in the Pop Arena WinZone, where you compete against up to 31 other players for the best result.

What you get in the app

The lobby is filled with Vegas-style video slots, with hold-and-spin and jackpot features. The big difference with other slot apps is the competitive side: short slot tournaments against real players, leaderboards and the World Tournament of Slots, a season-long competition with a live final. You can customise an avatar and outfit with the Backstage feature.

Chips, ads and in-app purchases

POP! Slots is free, with bonus chips and optional chip packages. Google Play does not flag the app as containing ads, which is rare in this category. Tournaments are where the chip spending adds up, so set a limit if you buy.

Mobile experience

At about 172 MB on iOS, POP! Slots is one of the lighter slot apps, and it runs well on older phones. Ratings are excellent: 4.8 stars from about 115,000 App Store ratings and 4.8 on Google Play from about 495,000 reviews, with more than 10 million downloads.

Who POP! Slots is for

It suits players who like competing rather than spinning alone, and who might use a Vegas reward. If you prefer quiet solo play with real casino brands, myKONAMI Slots or Quick Hit Slots are calmer.

POP! Slots compared with other slot apps

myVEGAS Slots uses the same rewards program but is built around a 3D Las Vegas Strip. myKONAMI Slots focuses on Konami machines. Cash Frenzy and Jackpot World have bigger in-house libraries but no real-world rewards.

Prefer real-money slots?

POP! Slots rewards are perks, not winnings. If you want to play slots for real money and withdraw what you win, the casino apps below carry hundreds of slot games. Check that real-money play is allowed where you live first.
