History

Jackpot World was first released on iOS on 16th March 2018 and the Android version was launched in May 2018. Initially, the game was called DAFU Casino (Chinese name: 大福娛樂城). The game was renamed Jackpot World in November 2020.

Jackpot World is currently operated by SpinX Games Limited, which was acquired by South Korean game developer Netmarble Corporation in August 2021.

In 2021 Jackpot World's downloads on the Google Play platform exceeded 5 million, and in May of 2024, it already had 30 million users. Nearly a quarter of users are based in the United States, and they contribute about half of the game's revenue.

Jackpot World is published in 97 countries around the world. The game has been localized in the following languages: Thai, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Dutch, Portuguese, Turkish, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.

It was among the most popular Android casino mobile games in the US, Canada, Germany, Spain and Japan in 2022. In May 2024, Jackpot World became one of the most profitable casino games in the following countries and regions: UK, Australia, France, Brazil, Mexico and Taiwan.

The first slot machine title released on Jackpot world was Caishen Dao, which is still one of the most popular slot machines available in the app.

SPIN Las Vegas anniversary event

In honor of its fifth anniversary, Jackpot World awarded 50 fortunate winners and a companion of their choosing (making it 100 players in total) with a comprehensive trip to Las Vegas, spanning from September 28 to October 1, 2023. This prize encompassed a 4-day, 3-night lodging at the Encore Hotel, round-trip flights, a tailor-made gift bag and a gaming competition. Four influencers were invited as team captains to lead four distinct groups in the gaming tournament. Among them were The Big Jackpot and Jackpot Jackie Slots, renowned for their slot machine content on YouTube and Facebook. Additionally, SayHiToMatthew and Norma Geli, lifestyle influencers residing in Vegas, were also in attendance. The gaming tournament ended with the distribution of prizes to the victors, such as a Cruise ship Trip for two, iPads, and $500 gift cards.

Gameplay

Jackpot World operates on a "freemium" principle, with free sign-up and essential game functions. The game includes options for in-app purchases to boost the gaming experience, and players have the choice to spend money to obtain coins and enhance their gameplay.

As a casual slot video game, Jackpot World has over 200 free slots available. Besides, it incorporates various social features to enhance the gaming experience. Players can send and receive gifts with friends, and participate in team events. The game also includes a diverse set of game modes and each slot has its own mechanics.

Penguin's Quest is the casino version of match-three games, like Candy Crush Saga and Bejeweled. Every symbol is trapped within a block of ice, but the symbols in a winning combination shatter and are randomly substituted with new ones. If a subsequent spin results in another winning combination, the ice-breaking can happen again.

As its name suggests, Bingo Piggy combines the gameplay of bingo and slot. For every spin, the game randomly fills up the blank spaces of a 5×5 bingo card. Players are rewarded when they win at least one of 35 possible paylines on the card.

Pachislot

In 2022, Jackpot World introduced a new feature called Pachislot, which is a kind of slot machine originating in Japan and is widespread in pachinko parlors. In the game, all game coins will be exchanged for pachinko coins. As of April 2024, there were 7 pachinko games, and each had machines with different odds.

Ocean Lord Fish-Shooting Game

The popularity of fish shooting games has spanned across nations such as Japan, China and other parts of Asia. As fish shooting games gain increasing popularity, in 2024, Jackpot World launched Ocean Lord, which introduces a fresh twist to the traditional Asian fish shooting game. In Ocean Lord, players assume the role of deep-sea hunters, using cannons to target a variety of marine life, including real-life marine creatures as well as fantastic creatures. Additionally, the game boasts a co-op mode, accommodating up to four players who can either compete against or work together in the same game session, with each participant's moves influencing the others.

Medal spin

Medals are granted for fulfilling specific criteria during the game. When players earn a medal, they win additional spins called "medal spins". The number of spins is determined by the medal's quality. Bronze, silver, and gold medals provide 1, 3, and 10 spins, respectively. Medals can also be reset after completing all collections.

Jackpot Stamp Collection

Players can also access collectible stamp albums of Jackpot Stamp, each of which have a different theme and storyline. When a stamp set is completed, players receive large coin prizes and additional in-game benefits.

There are different Jackpot Stamp collection seasons throughout the year, and each season will rank players based on the total number of stamp sets they collect and the time it takes. The higher the ranking, the greater the reward, and there will be additional rewards for the top three. In addition, stamps can also be given to each other among union members and friends.

There are also Union Albums that are released sporadically throughout the year where all union members can complete the album together.

Bonus Coins

Users receive a Welcome Bonus of  6 million coins when they first sign up for Jackpot World. Free Lucky Reward coins are offered every 15 minutes, and other additional bonuses such as the Mega Reward, Wheel Bonus and Super Respin are available.

Players can tune into live streams on platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch, garnering approximately 200,000 monthly page views. By participating in live streaming, viewers have the opportunity to earn exclusive rewards and bonuses that are typically available for purchase within the game.

Unions

Unions aim to enable players to form groups together inside the game to earn more bonuses and help each other progress through the various challenges.  Each week, players are encouraged to earn enough points to earn the key to open a chest full of free prizes. Players can also enjoy an extra bonus whenever a fellow Union member wins a Jackpot.

VIP level

The VIP level in the game is divided into 7 levels, and different levels correspond to different VIP scores. Players can collect VIP points by spinning, purchasing or completing events. The higher the VIP level, the more privileges and bonuses.
