CSGOEmpire Daily Coins Calculator: What Your Daily Case Is Really Worth
Updated · By the MyCS2Guru Editorial Team
Old guides talk about CSGOEmpire "daily coins", bro. Empire swapped those for daily cases funded by a personal pool, and the maths behind them is actually neat once you see it. This page is a CSGOEmpire daily coins calculator: plug in what you wager and you'll know how fast your pool grows, what your daily claim is worth, and what happens over a week or a month. The full explainer is at CSGOEmpire daily case.
The three formulas
1. Pool added from a bet: amount wagered × house edge × 25%. For match bets, use 5% instead of 25%.
2. Daily claim: 5% of your current pool, once every 24 hours.
3. Cash-out value: 90% of your daily claim, if you take the instant cash-out instead of opening a low, medium or high risk case.
That's everything. The rest is plugging in numbers.
Pool added per game
| Game | House edge | Share | Added per 100 coins wagered | Added per 1,000 coins |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cases & battles | 8.8% | 25% | 2.2 | 22 |
| Roulette | 6.66% | 25% | 1.665 | 16.65 |
| Match betting | ~4% (reported) | 5% | ~0.2 | ~2 |
| Coinflip | 0.5% | 25% | 0.125 | 1.25 |
Match betting's figure is an estimate because its margin varies; Empire's daily case explanation gives 0.2 per 100 as the reference.
Daily claim from a pool
| Pool | Daily claim (5%) | Cash-out (90%) | In USD (cash-out) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 coins | 0.5 | 0.45 | ~$0.28 |
| 50 coins | 2.5 | 2.25 | ~$1.38 |
| 100 coins | 5 | 4.5 | ~$2.76 |
| 250 coins | 12.5 | 11.25 | ~$6.91 |
| 500 coins | 25 | 22.5 | ~$13.82 |
The steady-state trick
Here's the insight most people miss. Each day you take 5% of your pool out, and your wagers add more in. If you wager the same amount every day, the pool settles at the level where what comes out equals what goes in. That level is 20 times your daily addition (because 5% of 20× = 1×). So in the long run, your daily claim roughly equals what you add to the pool each day.
| Daily wagering | Daily addition | Steady pool | Steady daily claim | Cash-out |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 coins roulette | 1.665 | 33.3 | 1.665 | ~1.5 |
| 500 coins roulette | 8.325 | 166.5 | 8.325 | ~7.5 |
| 500 coins cases | 11 | 220 | 11 | ~9.9 |
| 1,000 coins coinflip | 1.25 | 25 | 1.25 | ~1.1 |
That's why the daily case is best thought of as a rebate: over time it hands back about 25% of the house edge on casino games (a little less if you take cash-outs).
Worked example: a week of roulette
You wager 300 coins of roulette a day, starting from an empty pool. Each day adds about 5 coins (300 × 6.66% × 25% ≈ 5.0). Day 1's claim is tiny because the pool is tiny; it grows each day toward the steady state of about 100 coins in the pool and 5 coins per claim. After the first week you'd have claimed about 6 coins in total, with roughly 29 coins sitting in the pool. Reaching about 90% of full speed takes around 45 days of steady play, because the pool fills gradually.
Start Building Your Daily Case
What happens when you stop playing
If you stop wagering, your pool doesn't vanish: each day's claim is still 5% of whatever is left, so it slowly winds down. A 100-coin pool gives 5 coins on day one, then 4.75, then about 4.51, and so on. After 14 days without wagering you'd still have about 49 coins in the pool. Keep claiming even when you're taking a break, because a missed day's 5% is lost.
Using the calculator sensibly
The numbers show something important: the daily case returns a slice of what you're expected to lose. On roulette, you lose about 6.66% on average and get back up to about 1.67% through the pool. That makes the effective edge closer to 5%, not zero. Never wager extra just to grow the pool; you'd spend about four coins of expected loss for every coin you get back.
Mixing games
Most people play more than one game, so add each game's contribution separately. Say in a day you play 200 coins of roulette, 100 coins of cases and 300 coins of coinflip. Roulette adds 200 × 6.66% × 25% ≈ 3.33. Cases add 100 × 8.8% × 25% = 2.2. Coinflip adds 300 × 0.5% × 25% ≈ 0.38. Total daily addition: about 5.9 coins. At steady state, that's roughly a 118-coin pool and about 5.9 coins a day in claims, or about 5.3 coins if you always take the cash-out.
Cash-out vs opening a case
Every day you choose: take 90% of the claim as instant coins, or open a low, medium or high risk case. The cash-out is the certain option, losing 10% of the claim. The cases give you a chance at more in exchange for usually getting less. If you value predictability, cash out. If you enjoy the gamble and the claim is small anyway, a case can be fun. Over many days, the cash-out gives you a known 90%; the cases' long-run value depends on their odds, which you can see before opening.
Planning around the calculator
Use the numbers to set expectations, not targets. If you know your usual weekly wagering, you know roughly what your daily case will settle at. If your claims look small, that's because the edge-share is small, not because you need to bet more. The healthiest use of this calculator is realising the daily case is a perk that softens the edge a little, then forgetting about it and just claiming every day.
Daily case vs other Empire rewards
The daily case sits alongside XP levels, which unlock bonus cases, and leaderboard races. XP rates differ by game: 100 XP per coin on roulette, 88 on cases, 10 on coinflip, and 25 or 50 on match bets depending on bet type. Races count all bets except coinflip. None of these change the core maths: they're rebates and extras on top of a house edge. Guides: levels, leaderboard.
Quick-reference calculator
To estimate your steady daily claim, take your typical daily wagering per game and multiply: roulette by 0.01665, cases and battles by 0.022, coinflip by 0.00125, and match bets by about 0.002. Add them up. That total is roughly your daily addition and, once the pool has filled over a month or two, roughly your daily claim. Multiply by 0.9 for the cash-out value and by 0.6142808 to see it in dollars. For example, 400 coins of roulette a day gives about 6.7 coins a day at steady state, about 6 coins on cash-out, or roughly $3.70.
Common calculator mistakes
Forgetting that the claim is 5% of the pool, not the pool itself. Expecting full value after a few days, when the pool takes weeks to fill. Using the 25% share for match bets instead of 5%. And treating the result as profit: it's a partial refund of the house edge you've already paid on average.
