There are two main types of progressive jackpots:
Standalone Progressive Jackpots: Standalone progressive slots have a jackpot that is specific to a single machine. The jackpot accumulates only from bets made on that particular slot. These jackpots are usually smaller compared to linked or networked progressive jackpots.
Linked or Networked Progressive Jackpots: Linked or networked progressive slots are connected to a network of machines or online casinos. These jackpots pool together contributions from multiple sources, allowing the jackpot to grow much larger and faster. Linked progressive jackpots can offer life-changing sums of money.
