Progressive Jackpots increase over time. These mega paydays grow and grow, fed by players each time they make a bet, and don’t stop growing until they’re won!
Why do they get so big? Because they build with bets made across a linked network of games. For your shot at a progressive jackpot that can often hit the million mark and over, get both paws spinning hot games like Mega Moolah, Major Millions, Joker Millions, and Wheel of Wishes.
Fixed Jackpots are set prize pools where what you see is what you get, no matter how many players are vying for a piece! Once won, fixed jackpots simply reset to their original value. So, if you’re a lion who likes to know exactly what’s at stake, Luxor Gold Hold and Win and Amazing Link Zeus are top choices.
Networked Jackpots connect multiple games or slots, either within a single casino or across various locations. Every bet placed on any of the linked games adds to the jackpot, so it grows fast. The Mega Moolah series is perhaps the first, and most popular of the sort! Mega Moolah Goddess anyone?
Local Jackpots are exclusive to a single game or machine within one casino, hence, they’re 'localized'. Get your paws in pursuit of our own LeoJackpot in casino slot games like Rise of Olympus and the legendary John Hunter and the Book of Tut.
Daily Jackpots or Ready to Drop slots can really have you on the edge of your seat! These jackpots are designed to be won daily, within a specific timeframe, or when a certain criteria is met. By design, Ready to Drop jackpot slots ensure that the prize pool doesn't grow indefinitely but is instead awarded frequently, keeping anticipation high. To feel the rush, get your paws smashing Madame Destiny MEGAWAYS, Mustang Gold, and Release the Kraken 2.
Random Number Generators (RNGs) are the engines of fair play in slot machines. They continuously generate sequences of numbers that defy prediction and operate independently of each other. Each time the reels spin, the RNG swiftly selects a number from its sequence that determines exactly where the symbols will land on the reels.
If you find yourself hammering away on Buffalo King Megaways and stepping away for a stretch, only for another player to sit down (even if it’s virtually), press Spin, and hit the jackpot - go easy on yourself! It might seem like a cruel twist of fate, but it’s all down to the randomness of the RNG. The truth is, the winning spin was determined by the exact moment the RNG sequence was accessed, so whether you kept playing or not, that jackpot win was purely a matter of timing.
The Cole's Notes: RNGs guarantee that each spin is fair and independent, ensuring that every player has an equal chance to get lucky, making them a vital assurance of integrity and excitement for slots machines and games everywhere.
Jackpot triggers are the behind the scenes mechanisms - or the criteria that needs to be met - to set off big wins in casino games. They usually involve landing a specific combination of symbols on the reels or hitting a random event. Each type of trigger brings its own spark of anticipation. In Mega Moolah Witch's Moon, the jackpot can randomly launch, bringing a giant Jackpot Wheel to the forefront! This bold and colourful digiwheel will unleash the Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega jackpot - determined by where the wheel lands!
If you thought one jackpot was exciting, try a mega jackpot slot that often features three or four tiers of jackpot goodness. To keep it simple, they usually build up from a Mini Jackpot, Minor, Major, Maxi, all the way to the grand-daddy of all prize pools, the Grand Jackpot.

Microgaming is a true powerhouse in progressive slots. Fun Facts - did you know they were the first to release a wide area progressive back in 1998 called Cash Splash and that they hold the current Guiness Book of World Record for the highest paying progressive, ever? It’s true. These days they’re home to the world famous Mega Moolah (2002) series linked globally which to date, has awarded 18 MEGA jackpots for a cumulative 1.3 Billion awarded. Beyond their all star progressive, they’re also home to WowPots!, like the Book of Atem which seeds at a very noteworthy $2 Million.
Play’n GO also offers a flurry online slots of progressive jackpots including their most popular games, Fruit Party, Riches of Ra and the huge money, adrenaline pumping Diamond Strike.They’re slots designed for players with lower bankrolls to enjoy the game, and higher rollers to play maximum bets for the opportunity to cash in big.

Try to catch one in Big Bass Bonanza or their hit Wolf Gold.
That’s right, we have our very own progressive jackpot - LeoJackpot. And before we get into the nitty gritty details of how ours works, let it be known it currently sits at a whopping $18 Million and counting!
What makes this jackpot unique is that it's not fed by a variety of linked slot machines across other sites and networks. No siree. The LeoJackpot is entirely ours, serving online casino players in our den as an opt-in promotion streaming from 500+ slot games across our virtual casino floor.
LeoJackpot features four tiers of cash prize pools, increasing in value from the Mini, Minor and Major, all the way to the Mega.
Mini Jackpot seeds at $7.50
Minor Jackpot starts at $150

So, the big question is how can you get your paws on this stash of cash? You’ll first need to find games that host the LeoJackpot badge. Select the ‘Opt In’ button on the bottom of the game screen, followed by ‘Join Now’ (after reading all the T&Cs of course). Set your stake for a minimum bet of $0.15 and begin your quest for life-changing moola.
In order to participate and be in the running for winning, you’ll be required to set a minimum bet of $0.15 per spin when playing your chosen LeoJackpot game. Now, if you’ve opted in to this promotion, you’ve agreed to bet $0.15 to feed the Jackpot each round.
As an opt-in member of this promo, you’ll be privy to a Jackpot bar on your screen which shows all the current jackpot prize pools and even alerts you within 30 seconds of any of them being awarded and re-seeded to starting amounts. If you want to get super technical, we’ll take you there too. Let’s talk about how they are fed. The LeoJackpot four tiers are contributed to as per the following scale:
10.50% of Jackpot bet feeds the Mini Jackpot (25% goes to the next Jackpot)
21% gets contributed to the Minor and Major Jackpot (10% and 20% towards the next Jackpot, respectively)
17.50% of each bet helps build the Mega Jackpot (of which 20% goes to the next Jackpot)
If chosen randomly, you could very well get to spin the LeoJackpot wheel vying for that pointer to land on the MEGA for mega million and safe to say, life-changing wins. And with that, we wish you the very best of luck!

Lotto 6/49 is Canada’s first nationwide lottery whereby players could pick their own numbers. As you may have guessed, players picked six lucky numbers out of 49. Back in the days when a million-dollar win was life-changing, the Saturday Lotto 6/49 draw played out live on local newscasts, so players could follow along from home as the balls got tossed about and drawn out of a bingo-style ball machine in real time on TV! These days, Lotto 6/49 features both a ‘Classic Draw’ and a ‘Gold Ball Draw’ for each $3 ticket and draws on Wednesday and Saturday. While the Classic guarantees $5 Million for matching 6/6, the Gold Ball Draw guarantees either $1 Million or can release an ever-growing Gold Ball Jackpot that starts at $10 Mill and has been known to hit $68 Million!
Coming onto the scene in 2009, Lotto Max gives Canadians the chance to ‘Dream to the Max’ with bigger and grander jackpots than Lotto 6/49. For $5, players get three sets of 7 numbers; one set of 7 is theirs for the picking, while the other two in the set are ‘quick picks’ aka, randomly generated numbers. Its main attraction is its size - which has its Tuesday and Friday draws awarding a minimum of $10 Million and maxes out at $70 Million. When it does, any additional ‘millions’ become Lotto MaxMillions. In June 2021, it reached epic proportions with one $70 Million Lotto Max draw PLUS 50 MaxMillions for a record setting $128 Million.
British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC): BCLC oversees gambling on the West Coast, covering BC lotteries, casinos, and online gaming. It operates nationwide lotteries like Lotto 6/49 and the mega jackpot producer, Lotto Max, but also offers its own BC/49. In 2004, BCLC launched the first fully regulated online casino in Canada, later filling their virtual casino floor with blackjack, craps, and roulette. Now, PlayNow is now a shared platform and player pool with Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
Western Canada Lottery: The middle chunk of Canada falls under the wing of the WCLC, and has since 1974. The WLCL manages lottery operations in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and the territories, covering the Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. It offers regional games like Western Max and Pick 3, with proceeds supporting local services and community projects.
Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG): Since 1975, the OLG has overseen all gaming activities in Ontario, including lotteries, casinos, and slot machines. It operates lottery games like Lotto 6/49 and Lotto Max.
Loto-Québec: Loto-Québec manages lottery games and gaming establishments throughout Canada’s largest province, and includes notable casinos like Casino Montreal and Quebec City’s Salon du Jeux, as well as bingo halls. They offer Québec Max, with proceeds funding various public projects in their own province.
Atlantic Lottery Corporation (ALC): Over on the east coast, founded by the governments of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Prince Edward Island, ALC manages lotteries across all of the Atlantic provinces. It offers games such as Atlantic 49 and Lotto Atlantic, with profits supporting community programs.
Who doesn’t love a good instant win? A long-standing love of gamblers across Canada is the Scratch’n’Win ticket, widely available at lotto retailers, from remote gas stations to grocery stores. These instant-winning tickets deliver a ton of anticipation, as players get to scratch off numbers, crosswords, or even play Monopoly.
One of the most successful Scatch’n’Win runs is the Set for Life series, which doesn’t offer a one-hit-wonder jackpot, rather it ante’s up a win that pays a salary per se, for 25 years!
Instant scratch cards and games are digital versions of the beloved Scatch’n’Win cards you pick up now and then at the grocery store. Scratch online playing some of Hacksaw’s finest creations: Scratch, Scratch! Silver, and Snow Scratcher.
Daily Grand is for those who can’t wait for bi-weely draws - but can hang on at least a few hours! It’s a 5/5 match lottery plus a Grand Number. The top Daily Grand prize is $1,000 - but it doesn’t stop there. It awards $1,000 to you - every day - for the rest of your life - or they can grab an outright $7 Million! Decisions, decisions.

YES! Online casino players have won jackpots that are as big as Lotto Max draws, with the all-time current record for the biggest online slot jackpot to date coming in at a whopping $23.6 Million, courtesy of Absolootly Mad Mega Moolah.
If you win a major jackpot while playing in a brick-and-mortar casino, the lights will flash and an attendant will usually make their way to your slot machine, while the machine buzzes and booms. In an online casino, much the same hoopla happens on the reels, but the jackpot will be released to your online balance. In both scenarios, especially if the jackpot is substantial, the casino will verify your credentials before releasing the funds.
Vegas slot jackpots over the $1200 mark are subject to a 30% US tax. But, there are efforts you can take to recoup some of those ‘surrendered’ winnings once you return home.
Jackpots are the big kahuna of casino wins. The motherlode, the crème de la crème of casino games, are the biggest wins a slot or casino game can award. Usually, they are associated with prize pools that build over time, like the progressive LeoJackpot.
Long considered a lucky number, the iconic triple seven, ‘777,’ in classic slot machines typically releases the big jackpot.
Spoiler alert - it’s not that common, but that's not to say it doesn't happen. When playing slot machines, odds can range from 1 in 50,000 to 1 in several million, while casino table game jackpots and lottery jackpots like Lotto 6/49 and Lotto Max have similarly low odds. But, much like an elusive diamond, the rarity of jackpots is what makes them so exciting and valuable!
Any Canadian lottery winnings that fall under $1,000 can be claimed at a local lotto retailer. We’re talking Lotto 6/49, Lotto Max, or Scatch’n’Win hits. Once it exceeds a grand, a trip to the lottery agency, like BCLC or WCLC office, is required.
The term ‘jackpot’ originally referred to a large prize pool in poker that built up when players failed to win with a pair of ‘jacks’ or better. It was used to describe the growing ‘pot’ that players competed for until someone met the hand requirement to win it.
Odds are going to vary slot machine to slot machine, and casino table to table, but for the most part, they are not in your favour! Winning the Mega Millions jackpot for example has odds of around 1 in 33 millions, while Lotto 6/49 is about 1 in 14 million. That being said, somebody has to win, don’t they?!
Larger jackpots, usually over the $1k mark, in a physical casino typically require an attendant. Once that buzzer makes its sound, alarming the casino and players if a big win has been hit, you’ll likely be visited by an attendant and provided with a special slip to take to the Cashier. Online, it’s a little smoother as the funds will simply hit your balance! In both cases, a verification process may be involved before your funds can be withdrawn. The good news is that all jackpot wins and lottery wins in Canada are tax-free!
A progressive jackpot continues to build a large prize pool from bets until someone hits the winning combination or necessary criteria. Once won, the prize is paid out and the jackpot usually resets to its initial seeded amount. Fixed jackpots on the other hand, are set amounts that simply stay put until won.
We’re sorry to report, there’s simply no secret sauce to winning a jackpot! Slots and most casino games are based on chance. While a strategy and proper bankroll management may help increase your chances of wins at certain classic casino table games, for online slots and brick & mortar video slot games, jackpot wins are luck-influenced!
Let’s be honest, winning a jackpot isn’t easy, but it’s not necessarily ‘hard’. Yes, you’ve got some low odds working against you, but it does happen!
Winning a slot machine jackpot, online or within a physical casino, varies machine to machine. Jackpot rules typically involve matching specific symbols or numbers, meeting eligibility criteria, claiming the prize within a set time, and verifying the win.
If you’re playing, why not play the games with the biggest potential payout? That’s one way of looking at it. Keep in mind that many jackpot slots require a minimum wager to be placed to qualify to account for ‘the big one’, and it's usually the max bet. So always take into consideration the types of slots you like to play (smaller yet frequent payouts or larger but less frequent ones) and your personal bankroll.
There are a few factors in this question. Our Ready to Drop series, for example, are slots that will drop a jackpot every 24 hours. This is not the case for all progressives, and the higher the grand jackpot, the more likely the odds are stacked against you, just like in a Lotto 649 or Max draw. It’s tricky to land the big one, but hey, somebody’s gotta win it! And as they say, why not you?
Not all of them! But, we’ve made it easy to find the one that does at LeoVegas. A handy Jackpots tab as well as our Ready to Drop tab is where you’ll find our curated list of progressive jackpot slot machines.
Our slot machines at LeoVegas all come with a handy free demo mode option. This allows you to test the game and check out its bonus features, without any monetary investment. However, you need to be playing and spending real money to win a jackpot that’s not virtual coins.
To date, the Excalibur Casino takes the trophy for the biggest jackpot ever awarded - and it’s a whopper. $39.7 Million was awarded back in 2003 to a software engineer playing a MegaBucks slot. Not too far behind, Absolootly Mad Mega Moolah awarded over $23 Million. Dare to dream!
Winning online requires no cashier assistant tapping you on the back for a chaperoned walk to the cashier. No sirree, landing a jackpot online means that all those funds, millions if you’re a grand jackpot winner, are shipped directly to your player account and made available for withdrawal. Of course, given there are at least two companies involved in the win, it will go through a quick channel of verification before it’s official.
