How to Play Keno

Step 1: Launch Keno App

Tap on the Keno app icon on your iPhone's home screen. This will launch the Keno app on your iPhone. There are many free Keno apps to choose from, click here for more information.

Step 2: Choose Your Keno Numbers

In our Keno apps on the iPhone, you can choose between two and ten keno numbers. You choose a keno number by tapping on it. If you want to un-choose a keno number, simply tap on it again. If you don't have a set of favorite keno numbers that you want to choose, you can use the "Random" option to have the keno app choose random keno numbers for you. If there are no keno numbers selected on the keno board, then tapping "Random" will cause the keno app to choose ten random keno numbers for you. If, however you already have between two and ten keno numbers chosen, and you tap "Random" it will choose the selected number of keno numbers at random. For example, if you have the numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42 selected, and you tap "Random" then (because you have six numbers selected) six new random numbers will be selected. If you don't like those numbers, tap "Random" again, or press "Erase" and choose your own keno numbers by tapping them.

Step 3: Place Your Bet

Our Keno apps allows you to bet various bets between 1 and 10,000,000 (ten million). To change your bet, tap on the bet button. Tapping on the bet button toggles between the available bets. Keep in mind that even if you run out of keno credits, our keno apps all give you 100 free keno credits. In addition to the free keno credits that we offer, you can also choose to purchase keno credits via Apple's in-app purchase. You can purchase 100,000 keno credits for $.99 USD or 1,000,000 keno credits for $1.99 USD. Purchasing Keno Credits is a great way to reach a higher ranking on the Game Center leaderboards, and it allows you to bet higher amounts which could allow you to win big!

Step 4: Choose Your Keno Game Speed

Our Keno apps allows you to play keno at the speed of your choice. There various speeds in our keno apps. Tapping the speed button will toggle through the available keno speeds. Once you've found the keno speed that's right for you, you're ready to begin playing keno. Keep in mind, just like at the casino, you can change your keno speed from game to game. So you can play one keno game at slow speed, and the next at instant.

Step 5: Playing a Keno Game

Now that you've chosen your keno number, placed your bet, and selected your speed, you're ready to press the "Go" button and begin a game. Once you tap "Go", twenty keno numbers will be randomly selected and displayed to you on the keno board. You keno payout is based on how many of the keno numbers you picked were also randomly selected. For example, if you selected four numbers and two of those four were also randomly 'drawn' by our keno apps, then you would win your bet back. If all four numbers that you selected were also randomly drawn, you would win 110 times your bet. The keno payouts (win-o-meter) are visible in the win-o-meter in our keno apps for iPhone or iPad.
