New Millionaires: Mega Moolah Winners
In the realm of online slots, Microgaming is known for its Mega Moolah progressive jackpots. Slot machines are very alluring to gamers looking for large payouts due to the enormous profits that may be made on every given spin and the wide variety of slot options.
While it may take some time to win the Mega Jackpot, it normally pays out in about 80 days, allowing the reward sum to steadily increase over a few months. But occasionally, especially when it exceeds $9 million, it can be won right away, so now is the perfect moment to start playing.
What openings are there? Slots with the Mega Moolah have been released by Microgaming in the past thanks to partnerships with studios like Stormcraft, just for the Win, and Gold Coin Studios. This variety in studios has created a variety of new slot themes, features and ways to win the jackpot added in.
Casinos in which the Mega Moolah slot was won most often
It might be difficult to satisfactorily determine in which gambling site the slot was won most often. This is due to the fact some winners barred all data, including the platform where the jackpot was won, from being released. Concurrently, their countries of origin, alongside the dates of gameplay, are unknown to the public.
Nonetheless, we’ll construct our table based on public information available regarding the gambling sites and the Mega Moolah jackpot history, alongside the number of Mega Moolah wins and their total win size below. It’s important to note that players were from different countries with varying denominational currencies. As such, the estimated Total Win Size will mostly be a rough estimate of the aggregate of different currencies:
| S/N | CASINO | NUMBER OF-WINS | TOTAL SIZE OF WINS |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Grand Mondial | 4 | $36,913,087 (Roughly) |
| 2 | Yukon Gold | 2 | C$14,759,920 |
| 3 | Absolootly Mad | 2 | C$26,184,425 (Roughly) |
| 4 | Optibet | 2 | £13,828,643 |

| 10 | Lucky Casino | 1 | €14,239,532 |
Even though there’ve been 36 Mega Moolah Jackpot winners to date, only 22 of these have their platform of choice properly cataloged. Enthusiasts, however, strongly suspect that most of the vague 14 others probably won them at top casinos like Grand Mondial, Yukon Gold etc.
