Over 768 jackpot games - and somewhere in that list is one with your name on it. Progressive pools that grow with every spin, daily guaranteed prizes, Must-Drop jackpots and Drops & Wins tournaments. The next big winner could be you, mate.
Not all jackpots work the same way. Here's what you need to know about the different jackpot formats at Astromania.
A small percentage of every bet placed on a progressive jackpot game goes into a shared prize pool. That pool keeps growing until someone wins it - sometimes reaching tens of thousands of dollars. After a win, the jackpot resets to a seed amount and starts climbing again.
Progressive jackpots can be triggered at random on any spin, regardless of the bet size. You don't need to land a specific combination - any spin on a qualifying game could make you a jackpot winner. The more players spinning, the faster the pool grows.
Fixed jackpots pay a set amount every time they're triggered. Unlike progressive jackpots, the prize doesn't change - but it's guaranteed. If the jackpot game says you win $10,000 for hitting the jackpot combination, that's exactly what you'll receive.
Fixed jackpots tend to hit more frequently than progressive ones because the prize pool doesn't need to build up first. Many Hold & Win pokies feature fixed Grand, Major, Minor and Mini jackpots accessible through the coin collection bonus round.
Must-Drop jackpots are guaranteed to pay out before reaching a certain amount or by a specific time. If you can see a jackpot that "must drop by midnight" or "must drop before $10,000" - that's a Must-Drop jackpot. The closer it gets to the trigger point, the more likely a win is imminent.
Daily Jackpots at Astromania include the Drops & Wins promotion where guaranteed cash prizes are dropped randomly among players every day. Simply play qualifying games during the promotion period for a chance to receive a prize drop.

Networked progressive jackpots shared across multiple games and casinos
Jackpots at Astromania Casino come in several different formats, each with its own mechanics and win frequency. Understanding the difference helps you choose the right jackpot game for your style and budget.
The key thing to understand: any spin can win a progressive jackpot. You don't need to bet big or hit a specific symbol combination. The random trigger means even a $0.20 spin can land you the Grand Jackpot.
Jackpot pools are displayed in real time on each game - check the jackpot meter before you play to see the current prize pool. The bigger the meter, the longer since the last win - and the more overdue it might be.
Any spin on a jackpot game qualifies. You don't need to bet maximum to be eligible for the jackpot - it can trigger on any bet size.
A fraction of each bet across all players goes into the jackpot pool. The more players spinning, the faster it grows.
Progressive jackpots trigger randomly. Some are triggered by landing special jackpot symbols; others fire completely at random during base game play.
When the jackpot hits, the full pool is paid to the lucky winner and the meter resets to its seed amount, beginning the climb all over again.
Daily and Must-Drop jackpots are guaranteed to pay out within a set time period. The closer to the drop deadline, the more likely the next spin wins it.
Everything you need to know about jackpot games at Astromania Casino.
A progressive jackpot is a prize pool that grows over time as players spin the jackpot game. A small percentage of every bet placed goes into the pool, which keeps growing until someone wins it. After a win, the jackpot resets to a seed amount and starts building again. Progressive jackpots can be local (specific to one game), network (shared across multiple games at one casino) or wide-area network (shared across multiple casinos), with wide-area progressives capable of reaching huge amounts.
It depends on the jackpot type. For progressive jackpots, the trigger is usually random - any spin can win it regardless of bet size or symbol combination. For Hold & Win jackpots (Grand, Major, Minor, Mini), you need to fill the screen or land a set number of coin symbols in the bonus round. For Must-Drop and Daily Jackpots, prizes drop randomly to players who are actively spinning qualifying games during the promotion period. Check each game's paytable for its specific jackpot trigger mechanics.
No - at Astromania Casino, progressive jackpots can be won on any bet size. You don't need to bet the maximum to be eligible. This is different to some land-based machines which require maximum bet for jackpot eligibility. However, some games do increase your jackpot win probability with higher bets - check the individual game's rules. For Drops & Wins prizes, any qualifying bet participates in the random prize drops.
The Jackpot Play network (powered by Pragmatic Play) hosts some of the largest jackpots, including Gates of Olympus 1000 Jackpot, Sweet Bonanza 1000 Jackpot and Starlight Princess 1000 Jackpot. These network jackpots grow across multiple casinos simultaneously, leading to bigger prize pools. For Must-Drop jackpots, Daily Jackpot games like Zeus Lightning MegaWays and Dynamite Riches Megaways guarantee daily winners. Hot Jackpots include Hold & Win titles like Twister Fortunes and 777 Hot Reels: Supercharged with active progressive pools.
Yes - all 768+ jackpot games at Astromania Casino are fully playable on mobile via the Astromania mobile app for iOS and Android, or directly in your mobile browser. Jackpot meters update in real time on mobile. The jackpot can be triggered and won on any device - desktop, mobile or tablet - and will be credited to your account instantly regardless of which platform you're playing on.
