A historic moment in the world of online gaming unfolded last week as a Betfred player landed a huge £11,498,211.89 jackpot from a £1.50 stake on the iconic Mega Moolah progressive slot game. This life-altering win is a record-breaker for Betfred, with the previous biggest win at the UK bookie being £5.4 million by a customer from Newcastle in 2003.

Mega Moolah Record-Breaking Jackpot

The Mega Moolah slot, known for its huge progressive jackpots, has once again delivered. Developed by Games Global, Mega Moolah has dished out hundreds of millions in winnings since it was introduced towards the end of 2006.

Progressive jackpot games like Mega Moolah differ from standard online slots by pooling a portion of every player’s bet into a shared pot. With thousands playing daily, the jackpot grows rapidly, and when it hits, it hits big.

The latest jackpot: £11,498,211.89
Winning stake: £1.50
Date of win: Thursday, 5th June 2025

The Winning Moment

Watch as the lucky player wins over £11 million from a single £1.50 spin on Mega Moolah.

The winner, a lifelong horse racing enthusiast, had opened a Betfred account shortly before the win. Following a casual family evening out, he opted to have a go in the Betfred casino.

“It was the missus’ idea,” he revealed. “We gave the casino a go – and we certainly got lucky!”

After just a single £1.50 spin on Mega Moolah, the unimaginable happened: all reels aligned, triggering the multi-million-pound Mega Jackpot.

Despite the staggering windfall, the winner remains grounded. Plans include purchasing homes for family members, taking a well-earned luxury holiday, and continuing to place modest racing bets – a nod to his betting roots.

Betfred’s Largest-Ever Payout in 58 Years

This historic payout is the largest in Betfred’s 58-year history, comfortably surpassing the previous record of £5.4 million won in 2023. Betfred founder Fred Done personally called the winner to offer his congratulations and even extended a VIP invite to Old Trafford as a special guest.

Fred Done:
“Turning £1.50 into over £11 million is what we love to see. It’s what we’re all about – big wins from small stakes.”

Progressive Jackpots – Big Pay Out Potential

Games Global, the developer behind Mega Moolah, continues to set the benchmark in progressive slot innovation. The title has become synonymous with big wins and high-impact engagement.
