bet365 Launches Jackpot365 Progressive in Michigan Online Casino
bet365 has made its in-house progressive jackpot feature, Jackpot365, live for customers in Michigan, the operator confirmed on August 4, 2026.
The rollout comes roughly four months after bet365 brought its sportsbook and online casino to the state in April 2026, and marks the feature’s continued push across regulated US markets.
How Jackpot365 Works
Jackpot365 is a multi-tier progressive jackpot that bet365 built itself and integrated directly into the bet slip and casino games.
Customers can opt in when placing a bet for a chance to win one of four jackpots, and the entry does not change the outcome or the settlement of the original wager. bet365 says the opt-in adds a free jackpot entry to a bet rather than altering the underlying stake result.
Michigan casino players can now find the feature by opting in on their bet slip or in casino games, where each entry carries a chance to win one of the four progressive prize pools. The feature sits alongside the operator’s existing sportsbook offer in the state, giving both sports and casino customers the same route in.
Early Payouts Across Markets
bet365 pointed to early traction as evidence that the feature is landing with players.
Since its first launch in the UK in December 2025 through the end of this year’s World Cup, Jackpot365 has paid out more than $70 million across over 160,000 jackpot wins, according to the company. In US markets specifically, bet365 said 14,700 jackpot wins have returned over $7 million so far.
“We’re excited to introduce Jackpot365 to Michigan just a few months after bringing bet365 Sportsbook and Casino to the state,” said Trip Stoddard, Head of Development at bet365. “At bet365, we remain focused on delivering an innovative, high-quality product that elevates customers’ betting experience, and we’re proud to deliver this with the rewarding addition of Jackpot365.”
Why Michigan Came First
Michigan is one of a small group of US states where online casino gaming and sports betting both operate under full regulation, which makes it a natural early market for a feature that spans both products.
The state’s online gaming and sports betting activity is overseen by the Michigan Gaming Control Board, and bet365 operates its Michigan business under that regulatory framework.
The launch fits a broader pattern of operators building proprietary features to hold customer attention rather than relying solely on third-party content.
By keeping Jackpot365 in-house and wiring it into both the bet slip and casino titles, bet365 can offer the same jackpot mechanic across its whole platform without licensing it from a supplier.
What Comes Next
Access is limited to customers aged 21 and over who are physically located in Michigan, in line with state rules. bet365 said the feature ships with its standard responsible gambling tools, including deposit and session limits built into the app.
