The nationwide progressive jackpot Swiss Jackpot 2.0 of EGT’s Bell Link 1 registered impressive performance and first millionaires in Switzerland

04 Aug 2026

EGT’s absolute bestseller Bell Link 1 continues to reap success after being released in Switzerland as an exclusive Swiss Jackpot 2.0 Edition at the end of June. It is a nationwide progressive jackpot, connecting a total of 108 machines across 15 gaming establishments throughout the country, which are operated by different casino groups, united under the Swiss Jackpot Organization. Among the participating operators are Swiss Casinos Holding AG with its casinos in Zürich, St. Gallen, Winterthur and Pfäffikon, Groupe Barrière Suisse with its casinos in Montreux, Fribourg and Courrendlin, Stadtcasino Baden AG with its establishments in Baden and Locarno, and Groupe Tranchant with its casino in Basel for now, adding later this year its new gaming hall in Prilly as well. Grand Casino Luzern, Grand Casino Bern, Casinò Lugano, Casino Bad Ragaz, and Casino Interlaken complete the list of venues offering their guests the opportunity to win the big jackpot.

 

This has already happened twice in less than 1 month. Just a week after the launch of Swiss Jackpot 2.0 a customer of Swiss Casino Zürich became the first millionairehitting the impressive CHF 1,712,996.47. Тwo weeks later, the second GRAND HIT also became a reality, this time at Grand Casino Basel, where the lucky visitor won CHF 1,042,919.81.

 

The good news is that at any moment every player has the chance to achieve the same success, as long as they put a minimum bet of just CHF 1.00 and a maximum bet of CHF 25.00. If they hit the chime of three red Grand Bells, they will become the next one to take home the big win.

 

In addition, the Swiss Jackpot 2.0 offers a local in-house jackpot starting at CHF 2.500,00, which can be won when just one green Major Bell sounds. Attractive line wins paired with the popular Bell Link Hold & Respin feature complete a thrilling player experience, making the Swiss Jackpot 2.0 of EGT’s Bell Link 1 a favorite among casino clients.

 

Swiss Jackpot 2.0 is created by EGT to meet the specific regulatory requirements of the Swiss gaming market. For the first time in its more than 20-year long history, the Bulgarian company developed an operating system which enables SAS-controlled jackpots to be managed via the operators’ casino management systems rather than exclusively through EGT’s own jackpot controllers, providing the technological foundation for the entire project.

 

“We would like to thank the decision makers at all 15 participating casinos for the trust they placed in EGT by selecting this product, as well as the casino technicians whose dedication made the successful implementation of this project possible,” commented Emilia Tomachinska, Managing Director of E-Systems GmbH, EGT’s distributor in the German speaking regions of Europe. „Special thanks go to the Swiss Casinos Holding AG, which, as the operational headquarter of the Swiss Jackpot Organization, carried the largest load of the planning, organization, communication, coordination, testing & validation efforts, as well as DRGT, whose casino management system provides the jackpot engine, ensures seamless communication between all connected machines within the jackpot network, and reliably feeds our attractive LED jackpot signs with the latest jackpot values.“

 

She added that EGT’s determination to create this unique jackpot math specifically for the Swiss market while delivering everything on schedule is yet another outstanding example of the company’s continuous commitment to always be close to its clients and give them solutions tailored to their needs and the legal framework in the country.

 

“The team of E-Systems wishes all casino guests throughout Switzerland many exciting and memorable moments with the Swiss Jackpot 2.0 Edition of EGT’s Bell Link 1,” concluded Ms. Tomachinska.
