What is the progressive jackpot

A progressive jackpot is a prize pool that grows with each bet of a player connected to the network. Unlike fixed jackpots, the amount of winnings is not limited in advance and can reach millions. Progressive jackpots can be:
  • local - accumulate only within one casino;
  • network - a common pool that unites hundreds of sites.

The implementation of these systems is always under the control of the provider, since it is he who controls the server (RGS), where the accumulation and distribution of winnings is recorded.
