Online Progressive Jackpots

Progressive Slots - Progressive Slot Machines

Online progressive jackpots are online slot machine games which link together and earmark a tiny percentage of each bet toward the biggest jackpot. Progressive slots jackpots grow large quickly because of the volume of players contributing to the jackpot. And the starting jackpot for many online progressive jackpots is often as high as $250,000 or more. Players looking for a big, life-changing jackpot love progressive slot machines.

Progressive jackpots grow by contributions from the players' bets. For example, a progressive slot game might have a 92% payout percentage, which means that about 8% of each bet is kept by the house (over the long run). A generous progressive slot machine might apply 1% of each bet toward the progressive jackpot, which would make it grow rapidly if a lot of people are playing the machine.

Progressive Jackpot Tickers

Online Progressive Jackpots Traditional progressive slot machines feature progressive jackpot tickers above each machine. The ticker displays the ever-growing jackpot amount. The progressive jackpot tickers serve two purposes: to inform players of the amount of the jackpot, and to attract players to the games. Online progressive slots also feature jackpot tickers.

Progressive Jackpots and Max Coin Bets

To qualify for a progressive jackpot, players are usually required to play max coins. On most slot machine games, the max bet is five coins. Here are the typical betting amounts for various denomination progressives:

The max bet on a progressive penny slot is usually five cents per spin.
The max bet on a progressive nickel slot is usually 25 cents per spin.
The max bet on a progressive quarter slot is usually $1.25 per spin.
The max bet on a progressive dollar slot is usually $5 per spin.

The above are just examples, and variations are possible, especially online.
