Handing out the casino play money is an important part of any casino job.
After all, it determines the start of the casino night, the balance on the tables and the experience of the guests.
Therefore, it is important that this clear, professional and consistent is carried out by the entire team.

🎯 Why this is important

Proper use of play money and chips ensures:

• ⚖️ A fair and equal start for all guests.
• 🎲 A good balance of playtime, suspense and fun.
• 💬 A professional image towards the customer.
• 💰 A realistic playing experience not too few and not too many chips in circulation.

👤 Who hands out the play money?

• The executive croupier (LG) determines how many chips one bill is worth (see bill and chip table below).
• The croupiers hand out the play money to the guests this is always done led by the LG and according to the agreed value per bill.
• Has the value not been passed on to you yet? Proactively ask about this at the LG Before you start handing out.

📍 Where and when do you hand out?

• Play money will be handed out as guests enter, depending on the format of the event.
  Always consult with the client about the wishes and arrangements surrounding the distribution of play money.
• At smaller events, croupiers hand out the bills or chips themselves by walking around and personally providing each guest with play money, along with a brief explanation of the purpose and prize to be won.
• At larger events, this is usually done centrally at the entrance to the party. There are often hostesses who welcome the guests with a glass of bubbles, and it is extra nice when they also hand over the play money to the guests. This is always done in consultation with the client, so that it is clear what the wishes and agreements are.
• The LG makes sure everyone knows where distribution takes place and when this should happen.

💸 How much play money do you give per guest?

The amount of chips per guest depends on the size of the event and the number of tables.
Always follow the guideline on the callsheet or use the table below.

💶 Notes and fiche table (guideline)

Use this table to determine how many tickets and how many euros in chips per bill are issued.
This guideline ensures that each event is balanced: neither too much nor too little play money in circulation.
The number of tickets and the value per ticket are determined based on the number of guests and tables at the event.

The proper distribution of chips is important for the playing time, experience and professionalism.
Too many chips makes for little rotation at the gaming tables, too few chips makes guests run out of chips too quickly.
Therefore, it is essential that you understand this table well and use it consistently when handing out play money.

Number of casino tables	Number of guests at the party	Number of bills per guest	Value of chips per bill
1 table	10 - 50	2	€30 - €40
2 tables	25 - 150	1-2	€40 - €50
3 tables	50 - 200	1	€40 - €50
4 tables	100 - 250	1	€30 - €40
5-7 tables	150 - 500	1	€30 - €50
8-10 tables	250+	1	€30 - €40

Please note that these are guidelines. Exact values are determined on a per event basis by the supervisor or office staff.

📈 General guidelines

• At smaller parties usually give you something more chips per bill To keep the game alive.
• At large events give you fewer chips To better balance the game.
• The goal is always to improve the playing time and span balance: no one should run out of chips too soon.

🧮 Personalized dollar bills

Sometimes a customer orders personalized bills with their own logo or design. Because the customer pays extra for this, it's important that you know how much and how these bills are distributed.

Important rules:

• • 🎟️ Hand out personalized bills in the same way as standard bills.
  • 💰 Use as many of the bills ordered as possible - the customer pays for them.
  • 📦 Notes are usually ordered in sets of 250. Use almost all of them unless otherwise agreed.
  • 🎁 When finished, leave the remaining bills on site or give them to the customer as a memento. The customer bought these bills, so always make sure they get to the customer.

This is how you calculate the number of bills per guest:

1. Check the callsheet How many guests are expected.
2. Divide the total number of bills (usually 250 or 500) by the number of guests.
3. Round the result to below off on a whole bill.

Example:
The client ordered 250 personalized bills, and there are 70 guests.
250 ÷ 70 = 3.5 → each guest receives 3 bills.

⚖️ Important:

When you spend more bills per guest, you must increase the number of chips per bill adjust slightly downward. If you don't do this, too much play money will come into play and tables will become unbalanced. So always work consistently and coordinate with the LG when in doubt.

🤔 What to do when guests run out of chips?

• 🎉 Small parties: do you notice that many guests are “broke”?
  With the permission of the LG and the client, organize a additional handout and give all guests starting money again so that everyone has equal opportunities again.
• 🏢 Major events: hand out extra bills only in consultation with the customer and LG often not necessary with long play time or with many tables.

💡 Additional tip

Guests like to start with a hefty stack of chips. This immediately brings atmosphere and energy to the room.
An enthusiastic start = a better game and a happier customer. Make guests feel from the first second that they are part of a real casino experience-that's the difference Royal Casino Company makes. 🎲

✅ Summary

• The executive determines the value per bill → always ask.
• The croupiers hand out the play money - neat, organized and with a smile.
• Use personalized bills almost all (the customer pays for this).
• For additional bills, adjust the number of chips per bill to maintain balance.
• Always work according to the table or instructions from the office.
• Get guests started enthusiastically: more chips = more fun = satisfied customer.

Conclusion: Working consistently, coordinating well with the LG and handing out professionally ensure the smooth and fair running of any event.
That is the foundation of a successful casino - and it starts with you. 💪
