What are the Variations of Online Slots?
There are several different online slot machine variations, which we will be taking a closer look at right here. As well as learning about the different variations of online slots, you can also find some useful tips for deciding which slots to play.
What are the main types of online slots?
There are more than ten different types of online slot machines out there today. However, you will find that one online slot machine may fall into several of these different categories. The main types of slots you can generally find online today are the following:
- Classic slots (aka 3-reel slots)
- 5 and 6-reel slots
- Bonus round slots
- Win ways slots
- Megaways slots
- Multi-payline slots
- Progressive jackpot slots
- Fixed coin jackpot slots
- 3D slots

The Diamond Mine Megaways Jackpot King (JPK) online slot machine, for example, can be classed as a Megaways slot, a bonus round slot, a free spins slot, a 6-reel slot and a progressive jackpot slot.
The Wacky Panda online slot from Microgaming can be classed as a classic slot, a single-payline slot, a 3-reel slot, and a fixed coin jackpot slot. The good news is that all online slot machine variations today can be accessed using any modern smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop device with internet connectivity.
How to find the best online slots at a fully licensed online casino
Today, trusted websites, such as the official NewCasinos website, have a comprehensive guide to new casino games and online slot machines, which explains the different types of slots in greater detail. Reading these guides can also help you choose the right kind of slot you’re looking for.
There are thousands of different online slot machines to choose from today, and there are several things you may want to consider when searching for one that you will like.
For example, some of the important questions you may want to ask yourself when you next look for a slot machine to play at your favourite online casino are the following:
- Are you looking for a certain type of theme when you play an online slot? For example, some of the most popular slot themes out there today are Ancient Egyptian-themed slots, Leprechaun/Luck/Irish-themed slots, Western-themed slots, Greek/Norse Mythology-themed slots, Horror-themed slots, Sports-themed slots, etc. The list goes on. If you search for slots by ‘theme,’ it can help narrow down your search
- Do you want to play a brand-new online slot that has only just been released, or do you want to play an online slot that has been around for much longer?
- Do you want to play an online slot machine from a specific software provider/game development studio? For example, you may prefer playing online slots from Microgaming, whereas your friend may prefer playing online slots from NetEnt. There are hundreds of different companies that produce today’s best online slots, and getting to know your favourite provider(s) can also help narrow down your search
- Are you looking for Megaways slots? These extremely popular online slots come with Big Time Gaming’s Megaways game engine. Most online casinos have a dedicated ‘Megaways’ slot section, which makes these games much easier to find
- Are you looking for feature-rich slots that are packed with bonus rounds, such as a free spins bonus or multi-level picking bonus?
- Are you looking for something a little more laid back that’s super-easy to play? If so, then a classic 3-reel slot would be ideal for you
- Do you only want to play slots with higher-than-average RTP% (Return To Player) payout rates? If so, you should be looking for online slots with a 98.00% or higher RTP% rate
When you know roughly what you’re looking for, it can make it so much easier to find your favourite online slot machines. As mentioned, there are hundreds of slots to choose from at most online casinos today, sometimes more than 1,000. Several other useful features can be used to locate your favourite slots.
For example, at many fully licensed casino sites, you can use their filter settings to narrow down your search. If you know the name of the game you’re looking for, simply enter the name into the game search engine to locate the game instantly.
What to remember when playing online slots for real money
When playing online slots for real money, always try to gamble responsibly. This means never playing in the real money mode while intoxicated or under the influence, never chasing your losses, and setting limits. Don’t think of gambling for real money as a way to make a living. It’s not a job.
At today’s most trustworthy online casinos, you can usually set deposit limits, spending limits, and even session time limits, which is a great way to manage your bankroll and have a safer and more enjoyable experience.

Former Gambling Minister the Rt Hon Stuart Andrew MP to speak at Bactaâs Annual Convention
The former Gambling Minister the Rt Hon Stuart Andrew MP who was named Shadow Secretary of State for Culture, Media & Sport in Kemi Badenochâs top team has agreed to speak at the forthcoming Bacta Annual Convention which is taking place on Thursday 28 November.
Bacta members are on course to be at the 2024 Convention in record numbers based on the number of pre-event registrations received for the high-profile industry event.
With three weeks to go registrations are ahead of the same stage last year with members responding positively to Bactaâs âGoing for Growthâ theme set against the new political landscape punctuated by Labourâs landslide General Election victory in July and Novemberâs election of Kemi Badenoch as Leader of the Conservative Party. The confirmed attendance of the former Gambling Minister is likely to accelerate registrations.
Looking ahead to Convention George McGregor Bactaâs Executive Director (Government Relations) said: âFirst of all I am delighted that Stuart Andrew who oversaw the White Paper only to see it paused by Julyâs snap general election has agreed to join us at our Annual Convention. Members are responding in great numbers to both the Parliamentary Reception which is officially at full-capacity and to the Convention taking place the following day.â
He added: âOur keynote speakers which will include Stuart Andrew will feature in a panel which will explore amongst other topics the dynamics of the relationship between the industry and government, the fate of the White Paper and how we can collectively determine a future in which gaming operators are not expected to wait over a decade before they can raise their prices!â
He continued: âThe Annual Convention is an important benefit of Bacta membership. It represents an invaluable opportunity to network with colleagues and quiz the politicians and officials who play such an important role in determining the future of an industry which pays an estimated ÂŁ270 million in tax and contributes ÂŁ1.9 billion to UK GDP.
