501 Players Hit the Jackpot with BVGroup and ThrillTech

BetVictor’s “The Jackpots” successfully distributes nearly £1 million to 501 winners in as the UK’s first ever Community Jackpot pays out

ThrillTech, the global leader in side-bet jackpot technology, is pleased to announce the first UK Community Jackpots payout to hundreds of customers. BV Group’s opt-in Epic Community Jackpot has successfully dropped, sharing a massive prize pool among 501 lucky winners.

The main winner, who was playing on BVGroup’s flagship BetVictor online casino, took home a life-changing £488,035.59. At the same time, 500 other players across BVGroup’s UK iGaming brands including BetVictor, Heart Bingo, Smooth Spins, Betano, Parimatch and TalkSPORTBET, who all contributed to the jackpot pool, were notified that they had each received a welcome £976.07 share of the Epic Community Jackpot win.

BVGroup has a long history of product innovation, and, powered by ThrillTech’s proprietary ThrillPots engine, this jackpot was specifically configured to allocate 50% of the total prize to the main winner, and distribute the remaining 50% across the community of contributing players – a first in the UK region.

Peter Mareš, Chief Technical Officer at ThrillTech, commented on the milestone event: “This is the first community jackpot of its kind in the UK, enabling operators to reward hundreds or even thousands of players with a single jackpot instead of just one. Distributing these payouts at scale requires absolute precision. Our robust technology effortlessly handles the complex mathematics and has advanced protocols in place to ensure that all payouts are delivered exactly as intended.”

This historic community drop follows closely on the heels of another massive payout on BetVictor’s “The Jackpots”. Last month, a single lucky BVGroup player took home a staggering £1,531,130, also powered by ThrillPots.

Side bet, opt-in jackpot prize pools are player funded, and offer an added layer of engagement above the base casino game or sports wagering activity. By leveraging ThrillTech’s advanced multi-strategy community payouts, operators like BetVictor can now share the thrill of a major jackpot drop with hundreds of players at once, rewarding loyalty and engagement at an unprecedented scale with total technical confidence.
