Intro
The original idea behind this kind of jackpot game originated from Red Tiger before the World Cup in 2016 as Red Tiger was asked by Paddy Power to develop a concept that would bring their players additional excitement.
Red Tiger took that idea forward and back in February 2019 they announced its Daily Drop jackpot network. The new jackpot network enabled any online casino with an MGA licence to connect themselves to the network and let their players play any of the Red Tiger releases as a progressive game with the chance to hit a jackpot.
However, the most exciting thing with this innovative technology was that the Daily Drop jackpot is guaranteed to drop once a day, before a specific set time. We explain the different jackpot pools further in: The different Red Tiger jackpots and also how you trigger and win the jackpot. Later in this article, we will go into detail regarding the RTP of these jackpot games and how bet amounts are distributed among the different jackpots: What percentage of a bet goes into the jackpot pools and how much of a bet goes into the base game?
