What are Progressive Jackpots?

A progressive jackpot is a prize pool that increases gradually as players place bets on a game. Each wager contributes a small amount to the jackpot, which continues to grow until it is won. Unlike fixed jackpots, which remain the same, progressive jackpots can reach impressive amounts because they are linked across multiple players and sometimes multiple casinos.

Why are they popular with players?

They add an extra layer of excitement to the world of online pokies.
They offer multiple jackpot tiers, such as Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega, giving players different prize levels.
They’re available on both desktop and mobile, making them easy to access anywhere in New Zealand.

How Do Progressive Pokies (Slots) Work?

Progressive jackpot slots operate on a simple principle:

A portion of every bet goes into the jackpot pool.
The jackpot grows until a player hits the winning combination.
After a win, the jackpot resets to a base amount and starts building again.

Fairness and RNG: All progressive jackpot games use Random Number Generators (RNG) to ensure outcomes are completely random and fair.

Can you play for free? No. While games like online pokies, blackjack, and others offer free play in demo mode, progressive pokies do not. These games are only available in real-money play, which should always be approached responsibly.

Types of Progressive Jackpots

Progressive jackpots aren’t all the same – they come in different formats, each with its own structure and payout model. Understanding these variations helps players choose games that match their preferences:

Mega Moolah: One of the most iconic progressive jackpot pokies, Mega Moolah is part of a networked system that has produced record-breaking payouts worldwide. Known for its four-tier jackpot structure – Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega – it remains a favourite among players seeking variety and substantial prize potential.
Rapid Jackpots: This section includes popular games featuring the Lotsaloot™ mechanic – a thrilling three-tiered jackpot system built into selected pokies. The Lucky and Luxury jackpots must be won before reaching a set amount, while the Legendary jackpot continues to climb until claimed.
WOWPOT!™: Games like Sherlock & Moriarty Wowpot include token collection features that unlock a spin on the Jackpot Wheel. There are four possible jackpots, with the largest—Wowpot – resetting to 2,000,000 credits after a win.
WOW Major: Drawing from the second-highest tier of the WOWPOT!™ system, this jackpot seeds at 50,000 credits and appears in games such as African Legends.
King Millions: Titles like Kings of Crystals II King Millions™ combine reel-based jackpots with two network-wide progressive pots – Major and Grand – starting at 1 million and 2 million credits respectively.

Progressive Jackpots vs Progressive Pokies

While the terms progressive jackpots and progressive pokies are often used interchangeably, there’s a subtle difference:

Progressive Jackpots refer to the growing prize pool that accumulates over time.
Progressive Pokies are slot machines that include this jackpot feature.

In short, all progressive pokies have jackpots, but not all pokies are progressive. If you’re exploring pokies for variety, check whether the game includes a progressive element.
