The four progressive play-coin pots
Mini, Minor, Major and Grand: how the progressive pots grow from a slice of every stake, and what they are worth.
Four pots, one simple idea
Orbitpop has four progressive play-coin pots, named Mini, Minor, Major and Grand. You will see their current totals displayed as you play. Like everything else on the site, they are made entirely of play coins.
Progressive means the pots grow over time. Each one is fed by a small slice of every stake placed, so the totals tick upwards as spins are played.
How the pots grow
- Every stake contributes a slice to the pots.
- The pots climb steadily as play continues.
- Mini is the smallest and Grand is the largest, with Minor and Major in between.
- The totals are play coins, not money.
Watching the numbers rise is part of the atmosphere, but a larger pot does not mean it is more likely to be awarded soon. Results are random and every spin is independent.
A pot showing a big number is still only play coins. It cannot be withdrawn, sold or exchanged, and it is never a prize of value.
The pots are part of the same play-coin system as everything else, so the slice that feeds them is simply play coins moving around inside the site. Nothing is collected, kept or paid out in any form other than play coins.
What the pots are worth
In plain terms: nothing outside Orbitpop. The pots are a fun way of adding occasional larger play-coin moments to the machines. They are not a jackpot in any real-money sense, and there is no cash, voucher or physical prize attached to them.
This matters because the word jackpot is strongly linked to real-money gambling. On Orbitpop, landing a pot is no different from any other play-coin result. It does not mean you have a knack for slots, and it says nothing about how you might do with real money.
Measured, not promised
The measured return figures shown on each machine include what the pots contribute. Those figures come from running each machine's own code for millions of spins, so they reflect the long-run average with the pots included. Over a single session, you might see a pot awarded or you might not; both are normal.
There is no stake level, timing or pattern that makes a pot more likely to come your way. Any advice suggesting otherwise, wherever it comes from, does not apply to how these machines work.
Enjoying the pots sensibly
The pots are best treated as a bit of spectacle, the same way you might enjoy a big score flashing up in an arcade game. If you find yourself staying on longer than planned because a pot looks large, that is a natural pull, and a good moment to check the clock. Account holders can set reality-check reminders every 30 or 60 minutes, and can take a break for anywhere from 24 hours to 30 days.
