What are Progressive Slots?

A progressive slot is a slot game where the total prize jackpot keeps increasing every time a player places a bet and spins the reels. A small percentage of each wager is added to the overall prize pot. Frequently this amount is displayed in real-time on the slot game, and you can see it changing. They are called progressive slots because the jackpot total isn’t fixed; it keeps progressing until it is won. They are only different to regular slots due to this jackpot difference. You may spot some are dedicated Progressive Jackpot Slot games or an extension of an existing game (such as a Progressive version). Other Progressive slot games are connected to a player network across online casinos hosting a specific game provider.

How do these games work?

Let’s take a closer look at how these Progressive slots work.

Once upon a time, a slots developer somewhere thought long and hard about how to create a game with an epic jackpot without the provider having to fund it themselves. The answer- Progressive Jackpots Slots! In essence, the concept is also known as stake contribution. This invention means thousands of players can all contribute a part of their stake in the hope of being the lucky winner of a high jackpot prize. As a result, these games offer much greater win potential than regular slots, and they are highly popular with players across the globe.

There are three key parts to progressive slot games. Firstly there is the “Seed”. This means the amount where the jackpot begins. Interestingly, Progressive Jackpots don’t begin at zero after the prize has been won. This is simply because the game wouldn’t be attractive play if it were at 0! The seed amount is decided by the online casino or the game developer.

Next is the contribution, which means the percentage of your stake that goes towards this jackpot. The amount can vary depending on the game provider. For example, when playing Red Tiger Games, they take approximately 3% of your stake to put into this prize pot.

Finally, there is the prize itself. Progressive Slots are Jackpot games that can reach up to the millions, making them a go-to choice for many players. However, some have lower set amounts of less than a thousand.

How can I improve my chances of winning?

All games have a casino RTP and are entirely random when it comes to dishing out wins. Progressive jackpot games are no exception. Just sign up, place a deposit and get spinning to stand a chance of winning. The point at which the jackpot pays out is predetermined in the game’s engineering. For example, it could be a random time or jackpot size. Alternatively, it could be a fixed probability, such as 1 in 2.8 million spins. This is built into the game’s design by mathematical engineers. Then, the random number generator in the game does the rest of the work!
