How Cash Bonanza plays
Pragmatic calls this a 4x6 slot with a timeless design, and the look is deliberately retro: fruit-machine style icons set against bundles of banknotes and the golden door of a vault. Instead of fixed lines, wins are counted across the ways to win, so matching symbols on neighbouring reels pay wherever they sit in each column. On the opening grid that gives 4,096 ways.
A wild helps fill gaps in those combinations by standing in for the regular pay symbols, and the studio’s own description says the wilds are there to keep the prizes surprising. The Golden Scatter has a separate job and opens the free spins. Any win in the base game starts the respin feature described below.
Cash Bonanza: 6 reels, 4 rows, 4,096 ways at the start of each spin. The example shows 243 ways on a 5 × 3 grid.
Increasing Ways Respin
Pragmatic’s launch note calls this the highlight of the base game. When a win lands, the symbols in it hold their places and the other positions spin again. Each time the respin improves the result, more rows open up on the reels, so the number of ways climbs past the 4,096 you began with and the held symbols keep building value until the payout is made.
Free spins and the growing multiplier
Three or more Golden Scatters open the free spins. The respin mechanic carries on inside the round, and a multiplier is added on top: it goes up by 1x every time a winning combination lands, and the payout is boosted by its value. Landing further scatters during the round adds spins. Wilds keep standing in for the regular pay symbols here too, and winning symbols hold their places just as they do in the base game.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Cash Bonanza slot a fruit machine?
Only in its look. The symbols are fruit icons of the classic kind, but underneath it is a six-reel ways game, and its grid grows during play. Pragmatic presented it as part of a vault-inspired run of slots, bringing a classic theme to life.
Which studio made Cash Bonanza?
Pragmatic Play, which announced it in October 2021. Its chief business development officer described it at launch as the latest title in the studio’s vault-inspired slot collection, and the game page still describes the setting as a golden vault full of coins and dollar bills.
What makes Cash Bonanza different from other ways slots?
The number of ways is not fixed for the whole spin. Each win can lead to another respin with more rows on the reels, so one spin can turn into a chain of wins with a larger grid. In free spins those chains also feed a multiplier that grows with every win.
