Let’s learn about hitting it big with online jackpots.

When you play slots, you have the potential to hit it big. Like really big. We’re talking 5-figure, 6-figure, or even million-dollar big with online jackpots.

Playing for a jackpot is exciting. Hitting one could be life changing. So how do you make sure you’re in the running to pop one — and how rare is it to hit one? Let’s get into it.

What are online jackpots?

It’s the top prize you can win on a slot machine. And sometimes, top prizes — plural. On some of the best slots, you’ll find tiered jackpots. These are multiple jackpots packed into a single slot machine. You might see these jackpots labeled as Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand (though the name varies based on the slot).

Whether a slot has one jackpot or a series of tiered jackpots, they fall into two main types — Fixed and Progressives:

• Fixed jackpots stay at a set amount. They don’t grow as you play. If you pop a fixed jackpot, the amount resets, ready for someone to win it again.
• Progressive jackpots grow as you play. A small portion of your bet feeds the jackpot and it keeps growing until someone pops it. When it hits, the jackpot is reset for another opportunity to grow.

How do you pop online jackpots?

On some slots, you might be eligible to hit the jackpot at any point in the game, no matter how much or how little you bet. But on many slots, you need to meet a few conditions to be eligible to play for a jackpot. Here’s a look at some of the common ones:

• Bet the max. Some slots require that you max out each bet. That means playing the max number of credits per spin.
• Activate all paylines. When you play slots, you’ll have the opportunity to choose how many paylines to play. If you don’t play them all, you might not be eligible to play for a jackpot.
• Hit rare symbols. Most jackpots require hitting rare symbols that don’t appear that often. In some cases, the jackpot-triggering symbols only appear on specific reels.
• Trigger a bonus game. Some jackpots live exclusively inside bonus rounds.

Is it easy to hit a jackpot?

Smaller jackpots hit more frequently than the really big ones. But here’s the truth. All jackpots are random. You never know when the next one will pop. That’s what makes playing for one so thrilling.
