What are Progressive Slots?

Progressive slots are online slot games with a progressive jackpot. Meaning, the jackpot amount is not fixed. The amount of the jackpot is accumulated by the bets the players make while playing. So, the percentage of each bet adds up to the progressive jackpot amount.

How can you win a progressive jackpot?

There is no strategy that can increase your chance of winning a progressive slot jackpot. The random number generator works the same way with progressive slots as with regular ones. The odds of winning the jackpot depend on the slot game.

Types of progressive slot machine games

Standalone Progressives

A standalone progressive machine has a jackpot ticker on the game. However, only the bets on that specific machine feed the jackpot. Usually, the jackpot on the games is under $10,000.

Local Progressives

These games feature jackpots within a specific casino. Usually, the jackpots available on these games are under $1,000,000, and often under $100,000.

Wide Area Network Progressives

These are some of the most popular casino games on the market. A wide area network jackpot links slot machines in multiple casinos. This means that the jackpot is accumulated in different casinos, thus the amount can get much bigger. Often, these jackpots get over $1 million and sometimes even over $10 million.
