Online Slot Types

Now you’ve learned about how an online slot works and what you need to consider, you then need to decide on the type of slot game you want to play. There are various slot types to choose from with the following the most commonly found:

  • Classic Slot/Slot Machine: these are the original games, which typically have 3 reels and 1 single payline. A win is formed by getting 3 matching symbols across the middle of the screen. You now have modern classic slots which also offer bonus features and extras.
  • Video Slot: this is the most common type of slot game and normally comprises 5 reels. Most slots fall into this category and offer bonus features like free spins, wild symbols and scatters.
  • Jackpot Slot: these are video slots with a progressive jackpot element. This allows players to win jackpots which can reach 7 or 8 figures. A popular jackpot series is the WowPot network, with Wheel of Wishes paying outa world-record €38.4 million in December 2023.
  • Megaways Slot: these are slot games that use the Megaways engine from Big Time Gaming. On each spin, the number of symbols per reel changes randomly, offering you a varying number of ways to win. With a typical Megaways slot game, each of the 6 reels can contain between 2 and 7 symbols, allowing for a minimum of 324 ways to win and a maximum of 117,649 ways to win.
  • Grid Slot: known as Cluster Pays slots, these games don’t have a number of paylines or ways to win. Winning combinations are formed by landing clusters of matching symbols (they need to be next to each other). Check out all our grid slots.
  • 3D Slot: these are slots that use 3D technology in their graphics. These allow for a richer and more immersive game experience. An example is NetEnt’s Gems of Adoria, which was the first from the reputable slot provider.
  • Mobile Slot: these are online slots that can be played on mobile and tablet devices. With advances in technology, all slot games are mobile these days as they are created using HTML5 technology. As a result, they can played on a wide range of devices that are powered by iOS, Windows and Android, amongst other operating systems.
  • Themed Slot: while these games will fall under the categories listed above, some players like to play slots that have an ancient Egyptian theme, for example. Others like Greek mythology, superheroes, pirates, dragons, Wild West or zombies. We have a page dedicated to online slot themes.

UK Age Verification

agechecked-uk-age-verification

In the UK, the Gambling Commission requires that players verify their age before playing a slot for free or for real money. This means that portals like Online-Slot.co.uk add age verification to all slots.

Being responsible, Online-Slot.co.uk was the first site to implement age verification in the UK. We teamed up with AgeChecked to do this and the process couldn’t be simpler. Fully anonymous, they offer a number of ways to verify your age:

Electoral Roll Enter your personal/address details
Driving License Enter your personal details + driving license number
Credit Card Enter your card details
UK Mobile Enter your email address + mobile number

This process is free and only needs to be done once. You can create an AgeChecked account which makes it easier if you ever use it in future. Remember that your details will not be stored or shared as they will only be used for verification purposes.

Mobile Slots

Online slots nowadays are available to play across multiple devices including laptops, PCs, smartphones and tablets. With the rise of the use of mobile phones, all slot games are mobile slots meaning they can be played on a range of handheld devices that use iOS, Android or Windows operating systems.

Some slot providers like ELK Studios are mobile-first meaning they create slot games with mobile users as their priority. Developer 4theplayer has taken things further with the creation of Portrait Mode. This allows players to view the slot in portrait mode on their mobile and occupy 60% of the screen rather than the average 20%.

All slots found here at Online-Slot.co.uk can be played on mobiles and tablets. The demo versions are also multi-device. Furthermore, all sites recommended are UK mobile casinos meaning you can enjoy on the go.
