Intro

Step into the bright lights of Jackpot Village and take a tour of one of the biggest online casinos in the UK. Living up to its name, Jackpot Village has paid out more than £100m to its players through a variety of the best online casino games.

With over 1,200 games available on-site, the Village is simply too big to ignore. Read on and pick through our expert, user-focused review in which we’ll bring you up to speed on everything you need to know about Jackpot Village. From its bonus terms to its payment methods, we leave no stone unturned.

The first three deposits will also unlock a sequence of free spin bonuses. For the first, Jackpot Village will issue new customers with 50 spins to use on Play’n GO’s Book of Dead; on the second, 50 free spins on NetEnt’s Starburst; and for the third, there’s an extra 30 spins to use on NetEnt’s Gonzo’s Quest.

And putting the cherry on the icing, Jackpot Village will also reward players with 500 loyalty points as soon as they’ve made their first deposit. These loyalty points can be exchanged for bonus funds, but more on that later.

Wagering Requirements

Set at 40x the value of the bonus, Jackpot Village’s wagering requirements admittedly sit on the higher end. In particular, players looking to capitalise on the full range of the bonus will struggle to convert it into withdrawable winnings. At the peak of the welcome bonus, players will need to wager £38,000 ((500 + 200 + 250) x 40) before they can request a withdrawal for any bonus-associated winnings.

Together with a 30-day time limit, this is clearly beyond the realms of possibility for most online gamblers. If you’re interested in potentially converting your bonus into cashable winnings but don’t have the budget to meet the maximum wagering requirements, you might consider claiming a smaller amount. That being said, the bonus can also be viewed as a risk-free way to get accustomed to the site and its games rather than a means to turn a profit.

Players at Jackpot Village should also be mindful of wagering contributions. Wagers on table and poker games will contribute nothing towards the wagering requirements, and there are some restrictions on contributions from slots too. Some slots are limited to 20% wagering contributions, and games falling into this bracket include the Blood Suckers series and Dead or Alive.

There’s also a long list of slots where wagers will again contribute nothing to the requirements – Monopoly Megaways, Street Fighter II and Tomb Raider are included here, and the rest can be found in the site’s bonus terms and conditions. Wagers on all other slots, scratchcards and keno games will be weighted at 100%.

Software

Jackpot Village has one of the largest catalogues of software developers of all online casinos. Partnering with over 70 different providers, Jackpot Village has amassed an impressive games library that will have something to please all online gamblers. The developers best represented on-site are Red Tiger (132 games), Play’n GO (130 games) and NetEnt (106 games), but there are many more to choose from, encompassing a range of different styles, themes, and designs.

Games

With over 1,200 included on-site, virtually every slot game under the sun is accounted for at Jackpot Village. So much so that if there’s a game missing from the library, you can request its inclusion and the casino will make it happen if they agree that it’s a notable omission. With all these games to choose from, players can expect a wide variety of RTP rates, variance, and payline totals – as well as variety by style, design, and themes.

Players can organise the slots category by list, grids or tiles, and you can easily search for your favourites. The casino also usefully groups all its games by developer, so players can stick to their preferred development house if they wish.

Among the 1,200+ slot games on offer, 76 are progressive jackpot slots. With these titles, jackpots build incrementally as wagers are placed on the game from players all over the world. Mega Moolah, Eye of Horus, and Buffalo Rising are some of the best-known of these progressive slots where players can win prizes in the millions, albeit at much longer odds.

Jackpot Village also hosts a range of smaller daily jackpots that work in the same way as progressives, but with the jackpot guaranteed to pay out once a day. All of these jackpot games – whether they’re progressive or daily – display their prize money in their thumbnails, and they’re organised into their own separate slot categories.

Like everything else at Jackpot Village, its live dealer offering is big. With 183 games to enjoy in total, and with stake limits ranging from 10p to £15,000, there’s something for all live dealer enthusiasts at this casino. The games are supplied by live dealer experts Evolution, Pragmatic, and NetEnt, all of which provide flawless video streams, chat box features, multiple camera angles, and friendly, professional dealers.

You’ll find all the familiar table game classics at this live dealer casino, including blackjack, roulette, poker, baccarat, and some sic bo games. In addition to this, Jackpot Village also hosts a series of live dealer games that have been adapted from hit game shows and board games. Mega Ball, Deal or No Deal, Crazy Time, and Monopoly Live are the games in this category, and players can also enjoy the live dealer adaptation of Gonzo’s Quest and the high stakes Football Studio.

With an astonishing 152 live dealer blackjack games on offer at Jackpot Village, the site could practically be a blackjack casino alone. 134 of these games are to be played in the live lounge, where players will find a huge range of tables that can be played on any budget. There are plenty of variants to look out for, including Speed, Power, and Side Bet Blackjack – make sure you’re aware of the rules that each variant follows, along with how many decks are in play, as both of these factors will impact the casino’s house edge.

Let’s be honest, what casino site would be complete without a solid variety of roulette games? This is exactly what Jackpot Village must have been thinking when the site was developed, as members can now choose from a good range of roulette titles. In fact, there are more than 10 different variations available, which is respectable compared to other sites.

The first thing we have to say about these roulette titles here is that the graphics are just fantastic. They are crystal clear for the majority of games and the resolution is sharp, which makes the overall experience very pleasant. In terms of the best games, we’d have to say that Double Ball Roulette, French Roulette, and Roulette Master were our favorites.

Jackpot Village supports 13 poker titles –– apart from the eight live dealer games, all of these are video poker games. Players can choose from classics such as DJ Wild Stud Poker, Mississippi Stud Poker, and Jacks or Better for online video poker entertainment, or you can take to the live dealer table for Hold’em, Caribbean Stud, Side Bet, and Three Card poker games.

Jackpot Village offers a wide mix of payment methods to its customers, covering bank cards, e-wallets, and prepaid cards. These options each have their own perks, so which one you favour comes down to a matter of personal preference. There is a blanket minimum limit of £20 attached to all deposits and withdrawals at the casino, so it’s important to bear that in mind before you head to the cashier page. For players interested in using Paysafecard, be aware that this option is for deposits only.

Although Jackpot Village gives players lots of options at the cashier section, one notable absentee is pay by phone services like Boku and Siru.

For bank card withdrawals, players can expect the usual processing times of around 3-5 working days. For e-wallets, processing checks are carried out immediately once all verification measures have been approved, meaning players can get their hands on their winnings within 24 hours via these fast withdrawal methods.

Design & Usability

Visitors to the Jackpot Village site will be immediately struck by the night time cityscape in the background of the homepage. Elsewhere, the site uses a simple black and tan colour scheme that’s easy on the eye and draws user attention in the right direction.

Navigating your way around the site is simple too, with clearly-organised games categories located just beneath the extravagant homepage banner. There are individual categories for new and popular games, daily and progressive jackpots, and all of the 70+ game developers represented on site.

Support Options

There are two methods by which Jackpot Village delivers its customer support services: email and live chat. The live chat service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week – this is the hallmark of a great online casino, committed to delivering good customer service to its members. The site also has live Twitter and Facebook accounts, but neither of these have been active for over a year at the time of writing.

For iOS device holders, mobile gameplay at Jackpot Village is limited to playing in your mobile browser, as the casino has so far only developed a dedicated app for Android. Nevertheless, mobile optimisation means that no mobile players miss out, with the casino and its games adapted cleverly to the mobile screen.

With the same colour scheme and backdrop, the mobile version of the site is more or less identical to its desktop equivalent, and players will find the same impressive range of games delivered in all their useful categories.

Loyalty and VIP Rewards

One of the best things about Jackpot Village is its loyalty points reward scheme which issues new players 500 loyalty points as soon as they make their first deposit. From then on, every £10 wagered at the casino will generate loyalty points, the number of which changes depending on the game being played.

Here’s a breakdown of how this works:

• £10 wagered on all slots and scratch cards = two points
• £10 wagered on all poker and bingo games = one point
• £10 wagered on blackjack games = 0.5 points
• £10 wagered on roulette games = 0.25 points

Players can redeem their loyalty points in batches of 1,000, equating to £5 in bonus funds. These bonuses come with a wagering requirement of 40x and will need to be used within 30 days.
