To date, the largest IGT Powerbucks jackpot was in May 2020, when a player won CA$2.2 million on a Wheel of Fortune® slots game on Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation’s OLG.ca.
“British Columbia Lottery Corporation continues to focus on delivering omnichannel gaming experiences that resonate with our valued players in British Columbia,” said Dan Beebe, Interim Chief Operating Officer, BCLC. “This incredible IGT Powerbucks win demonstrates BCLC’s commitment to elevating entertainment and excitement for our players.”

IGT Powerbucks is the world’s first omnichannel wide area progressive game that links the jackpot prize pool between gaming machines found in casinos with games available on mobile devices and desktop computers. IGT Powerbucks slots have paid 33 jackpots of $1 million or more since its Canadian debut in 2016.
