Are there other types of Jackpots?
Local Jackpots
These types of jackpots usually come with a fixed prize that is made up exclusively of bets made by players playing at a certain casino. In other words, they are not tied to the slot game you are playing, but to the casino you play that slot game at.
As the number of players is significantly less at a particular casino compared to all players playing at a given slot, the payouts are often smaller.
Fixed Jackpots
Some slot games offer fixed jackpots which are usually not life changing prizes but are still better than what you can win by combining symbols in a row. You can easily spot a fixed jackpot slot as most slot games have three or a few different sized jackpots labeled above the reels.
It is worth mentioning that the prize of this jackpot is not influenced by the bets of the players.
Network Jackpots
Network Jackpots work very similarly to progressive jackpots, where every bet placed on a specific pooled jackpot game, across multiple casinos, contributes to the winning jackpot prize. As many people will participate in the fundraising of the bet by playing their favorite slot game, the amount of money you can win with the pooled jackpots is astounding.
Multiple Jackpot Slots
As we mentioned earlier, some slot games offer multiple jackpots, which increases your chances of hitting one. In most cases, various jackpot slots have different features that allow you to unlock bonus rounds and reach various jackpots.
While multi-jackpot slots offer significantly smaller prizes, the probability of winning a jackpot is higher than other slot games.
