Piggy Bank Megaways is a six-reel slot from iSoftBet — now part of IGT’s portfolio — that wraps a funky, hot-pink 1970s aesthetic around the Hold & Win format. Released in January 2022 as a Betsson Group exclusive before wider distribution, the game runs on 64 to 117,649 Megaways-powered slots ways, with bets from $0.20 to $20 and a standard RTP of 95.98%. One thing worth knowing before you spin: there are no free spins in this game. The entire bonus experience runs through the Piggy Rich Cash Respins mechanic.
Theme and Design
Bright hot-pink reels, chunky symbols and an upbeat organ soundtrack create a retro-funky aesthetic. Low-value symbols are the card royals; mid-value include a hammer, a pile of banknotes and a piggy bank icon. The logo tile pays from just two of a kind (25× stake for six). Cascading wins clear winning symbols and drop replacements, enabling consecutive wins per spin. The wild — a trio of grinning pigs — substitutes for all pay symbols but only on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5; it cannot land on reels 1 or 6, which limits full-grid cascade potential from either end.
Max Megaways and Bonus Add
Two random modifiers can fire on any base-game spin, announced when the screen darkens.
Max Megaways forces all six reels to seven rows for that spin only, unlocking the full 117,649-way grid in a single move. The effect applies to that spin and its cascades, then resets.
Bonus Add places additional gold coin scatter symbols onto the reels, raising the probability of landing the five scatters needed to trigger Piggy Rich Cash Respins. This is a probability nudge, not a guarantee — a Bonus Add spin can still fall short of the five-scatter threshold if the added coins don’t combine with enough others already on the grid.
Neither modifier is player-initiated; both are random events, independent of each other and of the Bonus Buy feature.
Piggy Rich Cash Respins
Landing five or more gold coin scatter symbols triggers Piggy Rich Cash Respins. Triggering scatters lock in position; all other symbols are cleared. The Luck Meter starts at three respins, resetting to three each time a new scatter lands during the round.
As each reel fills entirely with locked scatter coins, a multiplier activates. That multiplier equals the number of symbols on the reel — a seven-row reel fully covered applies ×7 to all prize values on it. Covering multiple reels compounds these multipliers against the accumulated coin totals; stacking them across several full reels is the route to the game’s 12,000× max win.
Three fixed jackpot prizes can also land as special scatters: Mini (10× stake), Major (25× stake) and Mega (50× stake). The Mega is the ceiling fixed prize — the real upside comes from smashing the bank open through full reel coverage and multiplier stacking.
Piggy Bank Megaways Strategy Tips
With a $0.20 minimum bet, Piggy Bank Megaways fits comfortably among low-stakes slots. Medium-High volatility means wins arrive at a 32.3% hit rate — frequent enough to sustain play — but meaningful payouts concentrate in Cash Respins, which trigger roughly once every 158 spins.
The Bonus Buy at 50× your stake guarantees a Cash Respins trigger and lifts RTP to 97%, making it the efficient route if your session budget allows. Without it, the base game with Bonus Add providing a natural probability assist is the more sustainable path.
Our Verdict
Piggy Bank Megaways is a solid Hold & Win entry dressed in an eye-catching retro package. The reel multiplier system — where covering a seven-row reel delivers a ×7 boost on those prize values — adds mechanical depth that most competing reviews underexplain. The Mega jackpot is a fixed 50× prize; the real ceiling comes from stacking multipliers across multiple covered reels. For medium-high volatility Hold & Win play, it is a competent option.
