Provably Fair

Updated over a month ago

What is provably fair?

In online gaming, provably fair guarantees that results are truly random and tamper-proof. It ensures that neither the platform nor external parties can manipulate the game, providing a level playing field where every outcome is unpredictable and mathematically verifiable.

How does Cooked make bets provably fair?

To make bets provably fair in all of our Cooked Originals, each bet is generated with a:

  • server seed: a random value that is provided on our end

  • client seed: a random value that is generated within your browser

  • nonce - a value that increases with each bet to ensure every game result is unique and fair

When the game is played, the three components are combined and used as inputs for the random number generator. The output of the generator is then used to determine the outcome of the game. By using a combination of these three values, it becomes virtually impossible for any party to predict or manipulate the outcome of the game.

How can bets be verified as fair?

Each Cooked Original features a 'Fairness' toggle in the game's window, which opens a Fairness pop-up.

Within the pop-up you are able to view your client seed, server seed and nonce, swap seed pairings and validate bet results to determine they are Provably Fair.

I don't like my current seed, can I change it?

In the Fairness pop-up, you can swap client/server seed pairing by either using the provided new client seed, or alternatively making up your own client seed entirely.

From there, just click change and your seed pair will rotate to the new one.

How do I verify the bet I placed was provable fair?

In the Fairness pop-up, click on the Verify tab and input the current client seed, server seed and nonce as they appears in the Seeds tab. If the hashes match and the calculated game result matches the actual outcome, the game is provably fair.
