• D. Global Progressive

Answer: (B)

Progressive jackpots grow when each eligible bet feeds into a central pool. When those bets come from machines located across multiple venues, they share a single pool that accumulates until a payout occurs. That setup is described as a multi-site progressive jackpot, because the “site” and the bets span more than one location, creating one growing prize.

Why this fits best: the term explicitly captures the idea of a single, growing jackpot that is funded by bets from machines at several different venues. Other terms exist, but they are less precise for the scenario of wagers across multiple locations. Linked jackpots typically refer to networks within a narrower scope, shared jackpots can be within a smaller group or within a single venue in practice, and global progressive jackpots imply a wider, often international network beyond a specific multi-site context.
