Big Time Gaming has never been shy about reinventing how slots work. From the chaos of Megaways to the cluster logic of Megaclusters or even the most recent 3D Cluster Pays, BTG’s innovations have reshaped the category. Now, they’re taking that mindset into a new genre with the launch of TapCards—a tap-to-reveal game series that blends familiar brands with instant-win sensibilities.
Four titles are rolling out across BTG casinos this July: Millionaire TapCards (01.07), Bonanza TapCards (03.07), Extra Chilli TapCards (09.07), and Big Bucks Deluxe TapCards (10.07). All four offer the same top-line spec: up to 25,000x max win, 96.45% top RTP, and the ability to play a round in under 10 seconds.
But what exactly is a TapCard—and who’s it for?
What Is a TapCard?
At a glance, TapCards might remind you of scratchcards—but they’re built for a different player.
- No reels, no spins. Each round presents a digital “card” with 7 to 16 hidden symbols.
- You tap (or click) to reveal all symbols and win by matching 3, 4, or 5 of a kind, anywhere on the card.
- Wilds substitute for any symbol—including the Tap Pot, which unlocks the biggest prizes.
- Payouts stack. Multiple winning combos can hit in a single tap.
Where slots lean into spinning suspense and bonuses, TapCards offer a more compressed experience. You either hit or you don’t—no waiting, no distractions, and no secondary features to learn.
This makes them perfect for mobile play or “side gaming,” but don’t mistake the speed for softness. Volatility is very high, and the 25,000x cap still puts these games firmly in the upper tier of BTG’s payout spectrum.
Tap Pot Prizes: Instant Jackpots in Disguise
Each TapCard game features a special Tap Pot symbol, and matching multiple Tap Pots triggers pre-set prize tiers:
- 3 Tap Pots → Mini Prize: 250x
- 4 Tap Pots → Midi Prize: 1,000x
- 5 Tap Pots → Maxi Prize: 25,000x
It’s not a progressive jackpot—it’s more like a fixed-tier volatility burst, rewarding players who hit high Tap Pot counts with instant, high-multiplier payouts.
The First Four Titles
BTG didn’t start from scratch. Instead, they’ve retooled some of their most iconic franchises:
Millionaire TapCards
Taps into the drama of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, with neon-blue visuals, pounding audio, and the same Tap Pot volatility structure. No lifelines—just luck.
Bonanza TapCards
The original Megaways hit gets the instant-win treatment. Expect gold chunks, mining gear, and a heavy lean on nostalgia for the 2016 classic.
Extra Chilli TapCards
Fiery visuals, festive flair, and the familiar spice of Extra Chilli, only this time you’re tapping tiles instead of spinning reels.
Big Bucks Deluxe TapCards
Originally launched as a high-volatility slot with progressive Megapots, Big Bucks Deluxe makes a sharp pivot into instant-win territory. The TapCards version keeps the luxury theming—gold watches, yachts, private jets—but swaps progressive jackpots for fixed Tap Pot tiers up to 25,000x. It’s a cleaner, faster format built on the same glitzy appeal.
Despite the thematic differences, the core gameplay is identical—making it easy to switch between titles without relearning mechanics.
How It Compares to Other BTG Systems
TapCards aren’t trying to outdo BTG’s flagship slots. There are no Megaways, no Megapays, and no feature ladders here. Instead, this is a completely stripped-back, mobile-first instant win format. You tap, you reveal, and you move on.
And that’s the point. TapCards aren’t designed to compete with traditional slots—they’re built to live alongside them, offering a quicker, lower-friction experience that still carries serious win potential.
Final Thoughts
TapCards mark a new chapter for BTG—one that’s not about feature layering, but feature stripping. These games deliver instant results, familiar IPs, and high risk–high reward payouts in under 10 seconds per round.
They won’t replace slots, but they’re not trying to. TapCards are their own thing—quick, brutal, and potentially massive. And in a market where attention spans are shrinking, that might be exactly what BTG needs right now.
