This will depend on the provider. If it is Microgaming we're talking about, notice I mentioned that a cut of each bet would go to the jackpot - and thus the jackpot is paid out by Jackpot Madness, not the casino. The casino makes less on a progressive bet than on an equivalent bet in another game, even if the house edge is higher.
