Progressive games collect their jackpots from every bet made on the game. They are connected in local and international networks making it possible for players in many different casinos building on the very same jackpot. For each bet you make on the jackpot pokies, a small amount goes to the collective prize sum.
Can you trust progressive jackpots to be fair? Yes. You can trust the jackpot system if it is supported by reputable software and are used in serious casinos for Australian players.
There are three major software when it comes to progressive pokies. Here they are:
NetEnt – Netent offers 12 jackpot games from different categories such as slots, scratch cards and video poker games. Their most famous progressive pokies are Mega Fortune and Hall of Gods that have paid out huge winnings in web casinos as well as in mobile casinos.
Microgaming – With 20 different progressive games Microgaming stands behind some of the biggest wins online. Mega Moolah is their premier flagship game, but there are other player favorites such as Mega Moolah Isis and The Dark Knight.
Playtech – Today you will find 39 progressive games from Playtech and these include slots, arcade games and scratch cards. The Marvel Slots with super hero themes are very popular and one of the foremost Playtech jackpot pokies is the Gladiator Jackpot Slot.
Mega Moolah – This is the progressive pokie machine from Microgaming with a safari theme and several jackpots to win. The record came in 2015 when a British player won more than £13,000,000 on the game.
Mega Fortune – The largest jackpot payout ever in an online slot machine was the one won by another brit, Jonathan Heywood, who managed to win £13,209,300 on this Netent game that is laid out with a theme of luxury and riches.
Hall of Gods – Nordic mythology and big wins seem to go hand in hand! In April 2015 a Norwegian player won €7,820,888 on the game that comes from Net Entertainment.
King Cashalot – This is one of the most popular Microgaming jackpot pokies and it has paid out more than $15 million with the largest one being about $1.75 million.
Can you trust them?
Yes, pokies that come from reputable software with tested RNGs can be trusted as fair.
Is there a strategy?
There is no strategy other than keeping an eye on how you must bet to win. For example, if the progressive jackpot demands a maximum bet you don’t want to miss it.
Can I use my Bonus to Play Progressives?
It depends: sometimes you can and sometimes you can’t. Have a look at the requirements for the bonus.
Will I get paid the full amount if I win?
Usually you will get the full amount. There are some Playtech casinos that don’t pay the full amount but the sites that we feature all pay in full.
