1. Lucky Weekend Jackpot (Tote Pool) – Guaranteed 100% Payout Every Weekend

Lucky Fish 100% Cash Pool
You could win the entire jackpot pool in cash. That's right, 100% of it would go straight to your Lucky Fish account. This progressive jackpot runs every weekend from Friday at 9 am through Sunday at 9 pm. The pool builds up from a percentage of qualifying bets. You can check the live jackpot amount on the display, and you'll see a countdown to Sunday's closing time.

How to qualify

  • Place bets of R2 or more on selected Lucky Fish jackpot games.
  • Every qualifying bet gives you an entry — the more you bet or the more bets you place, the better your chances.
  • A portion of each qualifying stake contributes to the growing jackpot pool.

Selected Games

  • Pragmatic Play favourites include: 5 Lions Megaways, The Dog House, Gates of Olympus 1000, Sweet Bonanza 1000, Starlight Princess 1000, Big Bass Bonanza series, Zeus vs Hades, Fire Strike, Sugar Rush 1000, Fruit Party, and many Christmas-themed titles like Gates of Olympus Xmas 1000, Big Bass Christmas Bash, plus more.
  • Booming Games: Bamboo Wilds, Holly Jolly Bonanza, Power of Olympus, Blockchain Megaways, etc.
  • Spinmatic: 3 Amigos Jackpot, Poseidon Jackpot, Holly Molly Hole, and others.

From December 2025 to December 27, 2026, the jackpot spans many weekends. That's a long stretch, so you have ample opportunity to get involved. Right after each weekend ends, the payout phase begins.

Remember to check the jackpot display on the site. It shows you the current pool size and how much time remains. The display updates in real time, keeping you informed.

3. Pragmatic Play Payweek Tournament – Climb the Leaderboard for R120,000

If you enjoy a good challenge, you'll want to check out the Payweek Tournament. It's happening on select evenings from March 27th through 30th, 2026, and again from April 26th through 29th, 2026.

How to score points and win

  • Place bets of R2 or more on the same wide range of Pragmatic Play games listed above.
  • To figure out your points, you use this simple calculation. Take what you won and divide it by what you bet. Multiply that result by 1000, and that's your scoreboard multiplier points.
  • Even break-even rounds score points; every spin counts toward climbing the daily leaderboard.
  • There's no limit to how many times you can enter. The more you play and win big compared to your stake, the higher you'll climb in the rankings.

Prize Structure

  • Each day: 1st is R6,000, 2nd is R4,000, 3rd is R2,500, 4th is R1,500, 5th is R1,000.
  • Cash prizes are credited 36–48 hours after each session ends.
