After much anticipation, the first Prime Network Jackpot, launched by SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator in October 2023, was finally won on February 7th. The lucky winner took home a prize of 244,742.34 euros.
In the campaign, operators collectively establish shared prize pools, driven by players.
Winnings are paid out by these shared pools, not by individual traders. This approach offers more meaningful rewards to increase player engagement and loyalty while optimizing operator costs.
During the Prime Network campaign, casino players were able to participate in the online jackpot with a minimum bet of just 1 euro, with no additional fees.
Furthermore, from October 2023 to February 2024, approximately 1 billion euros in bets were placed in the jackpot pool.
The first draw, hosted by Fastpay Casino, saw one lucky player win €244,742.34 in a game designed by BGaming.
In comparison, winnings from regular non-network progressive jackpots usually do not exceed 30 thousand – 50 thousand euros.
Prime Network’s Next Jackpot Campaign
Following the success of the initial draw, SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator is launching its next Prime Network Jackpot campaign.
Aliaksei Douhin, Head of Jackpot Aggregator at SOFTSWISS, commented: “We are thrilled that the long-awaited win took place during ICE London, an ideal time for the community to connect and share insights. This win provides an additional reason to celebrate with our partners”.
Following our initial networked online progressive jackpot campaign with a starting prize of 100,000 euros, we are immediately launching a new campaign starting with 300,000 euros.
This campaign offers substantial rewards to players and facilitates jackpot payouts from the collective prize pool.
It serves as an effective marketing strategy to engage and attract users, a relevant topic for discussion at ICE and particularly at our booth.”
The Fastpay Casino representative shared their excitement: “Hosting the inaugural draw for the SOFTSWISS Prime Network Jackpot campaign was an honor and good fortune for us.
Among the many participating casinos, ours was privileged to be the first to celebrate a winner in this exciting campaign.
It is particularly symbolic that the victory occurred in a game developed exclusively for us by BGaming – Fastpay Bonanza.
This event highlights the advantages of collaborative network jackpots and further confirms our commitment to providing exceptional gaming experiences.
We look forward to hosting more exciting events like this, continuing to create winners among our players and our casino community.”
Growth of bets during the campaign period
Marina Ostrovtsova, CEO of BGaming also said: “It is gratifying to see players enthusiastically embracing fresh industry initiatives such as the SOFTSWISS Prime Network Jackpot campaign.
We are happy to mark the first winner in the BGaming game, made especially for Fastpay Casino. We thank the partners involved.
So, as BGaming continues to create custom games and engaging online casino titles, we look forward to more campaigns from SOFTSWISS.”
In the Prime Network campaign period, participating casinos reported significant growth in key performance indicators, as well as in periods when only regular, non-network jackpots were in use.
Specifically, there was a 7.76% increase in trading volume, a 2.43% increase in total bets and a 3.87% increase in deposited amounts.
These numbers demonstrate the positive impact of the campaign on casino operations. Still, the jackpot is becoming a strategic tool for casinos to improve their business metrics and engage players.
