Sometimes all it takes is a single decision.
For one lucky bet365 customer from London, opting into Jackpot365 with an additional 10p stake turned an ordinary casino session into a life-changing moment worth more than £1.3 million.
The latest Jackpot365 success story comes after bet365 has already paid out an incredible £50 million in Jackpot365 prize money since the feature launched in December 2025, making it one of the most talked-about progressive jackpot features in online gaming.
The bonus code BET247 can be used during registration, but does not change the offer amount in any way.
A 10p Decision That Changed Everything
Alex, a bet365 customer from London, was enjoying a session on Ballin' in the bet365 Casino when she received the familiar prompt asking whether she wanted to opt into Jackpot365.
The additional cost was just 10p.
Like many players, she didn't think much of it.
Moments later, everything changed.
“It was just like any other evening I choose to go on to bet365 Casino, but this time I went from unlucky to lucky,” Alex explained.
She continued:
“The pop-up came up offering the chance to opt in and use 10p to potentially win big. I thought nothing of it, but it then immediately appeared saying I'd won!
“I thought there must have been some kind of error, and I thought the winnings were thousands initially.
“I came out from the app, logged back in, and I realised that this was no joke. I'm so happy that a dream like this has come true for me, and I can go and buy my own home.”
For Alex, what began as a routine evening of casino entertainment quickly became the biggest win of her life.
Jackpot365 Continues Creating Millionaires
Since its debut in December 2025, Jackpot365 has become one of bet365's standout gaming innovations.
Unlike traditional jackpot games tied to a single slot title, Jackpot365 gives eligible players the opportunity to compete for one of four progressive jackpots by simply opting in while playing participating games.
The latest £1.3 million payout is another reminder that significant prizes continue to be won regularly.
According to bet365, customers have now shared more than £50 million in Jackpot365 winnings, with thousands of players collecting prizes ranging from smaller instant wins to life-changing jackpot payouts.
What Is Jackpot365?
Jackpot365 is an optional progressive jackpot feature that runs alongside eligible games.
Participation is completely voluntary, and opting into Jackpot365 has no impact on the outcome of the underlying casino game being played.
Instead, players pay a small additional entry fee for the chance to win one of four progressive jackpots.
The jackpot pools continue to grow until they're won, creating opportunities for substantial prizes while players continue enjoying their favourite casino games.
Jackpot365 Has Expanded Into Sports Betting
Following the success of the casino version, bet365 has also introduced Jackpot365 for sports betting.
Rather than being limited to casino games, eligible customers can now opt into Jackpot365 when placing qualifying sports bets.
The concept remains simple.
Players build their bet as normal before deciding whether to participate in Jackpot365 by paying a small additional jackpot entry fee.
If they opt in, they're automatically entered for the chance to win one of four progressive jackpots.
Importantly, participating in Jackpot365 does not change the outcome of the sports bet itself. The jackpot draw runs alongside the wager, adding an extra layer of excitement without affecting the sporting event or settlement of the bet.
The bonus code BET247 can be used during registration, but does not change the offer amount in any way.
How Jackpot365 Works on Sports
Using Jackpot365 with sports bets is straightforward:
- Build any qualifying sports bet.
- Choose to opt into Jackpot365 before placing the wager.
- Pay the small additional jackpot entry fee.
- Place the bet and receive an entry into one of four progressive jackpots.
Every eligible entry provides another opportunity to land a potentially huge prize while still enjoying the normal betting experience.

A Feature That Continues to Grow
The latest £1.3 million winner demonstrates why Jackpot365 continues attracting attention across both casino gaming and sports betting.
With over £50 million already awarded and hundreds of jackpot prizes reportedly dropping every day, the feature has become one of bet365's most distinctive offerings.
Whether players prefer spinning the reels on casino games or backing their favourite teams, Jackpot365 provides an optional opportunity to chase life-changing jackpots alongside their usual entertainment.
For Alex, a 10p decision ended with the chance to purchase her own home—a reminder that sometimes the smallest stake can produce the biggest surprise.
Opt-in required. Bet stakes change when opting in or out. Participation is optional. Jackpot365 does not affect the outcome of the underlying casino game or sports bet. Eligibility restrictions and terms and conditions apply.
Full Terms and Conditions of the Jackpot 365 promotion
- Jackpot365 is an optional progressive jackpot game played alongside, but separately to, eligible Casino games and Sports bets. Participation is optional and does not affect the outcome of the game being played. You can opt in and out of Jackpot365 at any time.
- An eligible Jackpot365 game or qualifying Sports bet is one where the Jackpot365 console is visible.
- To be eligible to win a Jackpot365 prize via Casino, click ‘Opt in’ on the in-game panel of an eligible Casino game. Once opted in, an additional £0.10 (or currency equivalent) will be used from your account balance for each hand, spin, or round played, on top of your base game stake. Entry into Jackpot365 is also available via opt-in on the Sports betslip. The stake for entry via the Sports betslip is £0.50 (or currency equivalent), which due to the higher stake value has a 5 times greater chance of winning a jackpot than entry via a Casino game. For example, a £0.50 entry on Sports will mean that you have five (5) times the chance of winning the jackpot compared to a £0.10 Casino entry. This is to account for the difference in the cost per entry.
- Opting in via a Casino game is separate from opting in via a Sports betslip. The opt-in status does not transfer between products, and you can be opted in on Casino and opted out on a Sports betslip, and vice versa.
- Jackpot365 wins are triggered randomly. Jackpot winnings will be credited automatically to your withdrawable balance. There may be a delay in winnings being paid out if two or more jackpots are won close together. Larger jackpot payouts may require additional verification checks to be carried out before winnings can be withdrawn.
- You may opt out at any time from Jackpot365 at the bottom of the eligible game’s in-game panel, at the bottom of the Sports betslip, or any other area on the site that contains the Jackpot365 console. If you have opted out, you will not be eligible to win a jackpot unless you opt in again.
- The jackpot is a progressive jackpot, meaning a portion of every applicable Jackpot Stake Amount (which varies depending on whether the entry is from Casino or Sports) is added to the jackpot total. If a game allows multiple stakes in a single round, only one Jackpot Stake Amount contributes for that round.
- Eighty-five percent (85%) of the applicable Jackpot Stake Amount (which varies depending on whether the entry is from Casino or Sports) is added to the jackpot prize-pool, a portion of which is reserved for future jackpot prize-pools (the “Reserve”). This allocation generates a total theoretical jackpot return to player of eighty-five percent (85%).
- One of four jackpots can be won at any time (Platinum, Gold, Silver, Bronze), which each offer a different prize value as displayed on the in-game panel on Casino or the betslip on Sports. Relevant contributions from the Jackpot Stake Amount, as defined above, are divided across the four tiers.
- Jackpot winners are selected at random and not as a result of any specific outcome from the game being played.
- All Jackpot365 wins will be verified by our internal validation process. If a jackpot is won shortly after a previous jackpot win, there may be a delay in the in-game panel displaying the new jackpot prize amount(s).
- There is no upper limit to Jackpot365 values, and the jackpot will continue to increase as all players play eligible games and contribute via Jackpot Stake Amounts, until a winner is selected at random. There is no set number of jackpots that will be won in a given timeframe, and no set time by which jackpots will be won.
- The current value of the jackpot can be seen on the in-game panel of the eligible Casino game, the bottom of the Sports betslip and on the Jackpot365 banner on the offer page. Please be aware that due to internet latency, there can be a slight delay in the jackpot amount displayed within the jackpot ticker and the most up-to-date jackpot value a customer can win.
- If the value of your stake and Jackpot Stake Amount combined would exceed staking limits for the jurisdiction in which you are playing, then the Jackpot Stake Amount will not be applied and you will not be eligible to win a jackpot prize for that round. While you are opted in, bets placed on Casino using bonus funds, golden chips or free spins will also deduct the Jackpot Stake Amount from your player balance and be eligible to win a jackpot prize.
- All jackpot wins are subject to verification and any decisions as to eligibility or any wins (including the amount thereof) are final. bet365 is not liable for technical, hardware or software failures or any unavailable or lost network connections which may result in incorrect information being displayed, or affect a player’s ability to take part in Jackpot365.
- In the event Jackpot365 is decommissioned and bet365 is in possession of player jackpot contributions, bet365 shall distribute any remaining funds to previously participating players and provide users with reasonable notice of the planned decommission. In the event the jackpot funds are transferred to a new Jackpot, bet365 shall determine the total amount of player contributed jackpot funds remaining in its possession, transfer such funds to the new jackpot and provide users with reasonable notice of the planned transfer.
- Without limiting any rights or remedies set forth in the bet365 Terms and Conditions, in the event any technical component(s) associated with the jackpot malfunctions or becomes unresponsive for any reason, any jackpot transaction that fails to process as a result will be voided, any Jackpot Stake Amount deducted from your account balance shall be refunded to you, and you will not be eligible to win a jackpot prize on that hand, spin, or round of the eligible game.
- bet365 reserves the right to modify or amend these Rules at any time. By opting in to participate in Jackpot365, you understand and agree to be bound by these Rules. bet365 may modify these Rules, cancel or modify any jackpot, add or remove eligible games, or exclude any individual(s) from participation Jackpot365, in each case, for any reason and in its sole discretion, at any time and without notice.
- Jackpot365 stakes will not qualify towards any rollover requirements for offers or promotions.
