BetVictor Player Wins £1.74m ThrillPots Jackpot
A BetVictor customer in Scotland has won £1.74m after landing a progressive jackpot while playing on the operator’s igaming platform. The prize was triggered through The Jackpots network, a jackpot system created by ThrillTech and rolled out across brands within the BVGroup portfolio.
The player secured the win while playing the slot Magnificent Power Spartan, placing a 10p side bet that activated the system’s top-tier Epic jackpot. The final payout totalled £1,744,000, the highest prize level available within the jackpot network.
The jackpot system is powered by ThrillTech’s ThrillPots technology, a side-bet jackpot solution designed to integrate into igaming platforms. Through the feature, players who place a qualifying side bet become eligible for progressive jackpots that can be randomly triggered during gameplay.
ThrillPots was introduced across BVGroup’s gaming brands in December as part of an expansion of jackpot mechanics within the group’s igaming offering. The system includes four progressive jackpot tiers, with any eligible spin capable of triggering one of the available prizes.
According to the companies, the Scottish player activated the Epic tier, which represents the highest-value jackpot within the system. The winner has chosen to remain anonymous.
The prize has been verified and paid out in line with the operator’s standard igaming verification and withdrawal procedures. Progressive jackpot networks such as ThrillPots are widely used by operators to link prize pools across multiple games or platforms, allowing jackpots to grow as players continue to place qualifying bets.
Eoin Ryan, Director of Sportsbook & eGaming at BVGroup, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to congratulate our first newly created millionaire.
“This life-changing win perfectly demonstrates how The Jackpots are designed to work, where any spin can trigger any jackpot, including the Epic pot! We’re excited to deliver many more unforgettable moments for our customers over the remainder of the year.”
Ben Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Seeing a 10p side bet turn into a £1.7 million win is exactly the kind of moment we built ThrillPots to create. Our vision from day one was to give operators a jackpot solution that genuinely excites players where every qualifying spin carries real potential, regardless of stake size. This win is a powerful demonstration of that principle in action.
“Working with BVGroup to launch The Jackpots across the BetVictor portfolio has been a fantastic collaboration. Their team understands how to integrate jackpot mechanics in a way that enhances the overall player experience, while maintaining the highest standards of compliance and player protection.
“We’re incredibly proud to see our technology deliver such a life-changing outcome, and we look forward to continuing to power unforgettable jackpot moments for operators and players around the world.”
