Community Jackpots
One of our main tips for playing bingo online is to join in the fun with the bingo community. It’s a great way to make new friends and get the most out of your bingo experience. Some sites even offer community Jackpots to be won too. A community Jackpot is a jackpot that is shared amongst all contributing players. The bingo Jackpot can be shared in a variety of ways, but the most common split is 50% of the prize for the player who triggered the Jackpot, and 50% shared amongst all other players.
At tombola, all our online bingo Jackpots are either fixed Jackpots or progressive Jackpots, and the best news? They are never shared. If more than one player wins the Jackpot at the same time, they will each receive the full Jackpot amount.
We do, however, have a game called Stakebackwhere one of the prizes works in a similar way to community Jackpots. When buying your tickets, you get the chance to pick a team colour from purple, blue, orange, green and red. All players in the winning team, which is determined by the colour of the winning tile, win their stake back. The Jackpot in Stakeback, however, is a two-tier fixed Jackpot where you can win either 10,000 x your stake or 1,000 x your stake.
Which tombola games are best for bingo Jackpots?
One of the main reasons why online bingo is so popular is because of the many different types of bingo games available to play. Many of our games are completely unique, as we design and create all our games in-house at tombola HQ, and you won’t find them anywhere else. With a wide variety of games and staking options available, you will often see Jackpots being won on different games throughout the day or night.
The largest Jackpots that have been won on tombola have been in bingo90. Some of our bingo90 Jackpot winners have even scooped over £35,000, including mrsbarrowman who won a whopping £39,341, and xxpepsixx who won £36,890. In bingoLite, which also has a progressive Jackpot, the Jackpot has reached over £2,500 on several occasions – not bad from a 2p stake! Our biggest bingoLite Jackpot winners to date include runk62 who won £2,891, and lynneb1958 who took home £2,686.
Most of our other games have a fixed Jackpot with prizes ranging anywhere from £100 to £20,000. You can be in with a chance of winning a fixed Jackpot from just 5p per game in Cinco, Picture bingo, Roller-Coaster, Morph, and Potion. There’s even a Jackpot up for grabs in our penny bingo game Paper, where you can win a £500 Jackpot from a 1p stake.
If you enjoy being in with a chance of winning big prizes, it’s also worth keeping an eye out for any upcoming bingo promotions. This is where prizes are boosted in certain games for a specific time period.
