If you've ever fancied your chances at playing online bingo and wondered what all the fuss is about when it comes to jackpots, you’re in the right place! Jackpots are one of the most exciting parts of playing bingo, adding a little extra joy to every game. 

Whether you're a seasoned dabber or a complete newbie, join us in exploring all about jackpots and how they work in online bingo. 

So, sit back and let's dive in!


What is a bingo jackpot, then? 

In simple terms, a bingo jackpot is an extra real money prize on top of the game winnings. It's usually awarded for completing a certain bingo pattern - often a full house - within a specific number of calls. For example, if you manage to mark off all your numbers in, say, 36 calls or fewer, you could bag yourself a jackpot on top of your standard win. Lovely jubbly. 

Jackpots can come in all shapes and sizes, and it’s worth knowing the difference between the main types you'll come across:

Fixed jackpots

These do exactly what they say on the tin; the jackpot amount is set in advance, and everyone's playing for the same prize. Simple as that.

Progressive jackpots

Here's where things get a bit juicier. Progressive jackpots grow over time as more players buy tickets. A portion of each ticket sold goes into the pot, and it keeps climbing until someone wins it. That's why you'll often see progressive jackpots reach eye-popping amounts, and why players love them.


How do online bingo jackpots work?

Online bingo jackpots work pretty much the same way as in a bingo hall, but with the added bonus of playing from the comfort of your own home (or wherever you fancy). Each game you join will tell you upfront what jackpot is available, how much it's worth, and what you need to do to win it. 

At Jackpotjoy, we make it nice and easy for you. When you enter a bingo room, you'll see the jackpot details clearly displayed, so you can keep your eyes on the prize while you play. 

For progressive jackpots, the amount shown keeps ticking up until someone wins it. The beauty of online bingo is that these jackpots can often get much bigger than in a traditional hall, thanks to more players joining from all over the UK.
