Instead of feeding normal returns, a portion of each stake is routed to the jackpot pool. Networked pools grow faster than local ones, because far more players feed them; a pool may belong to just one operator or be networked across many. A figure shown in the advert reflects the pool at present and is not a payout anyone has a claim to.
A worked example
Say 1% of every stake goes to the pool: the 96% RTP on the box then splits into 95% from regular spins and 1% from a jackpot that hardly anyone wins. Because the jackpot component materialises for just the one player who triggers it, the effective return for nearly all players is the lower figure.
The common misreading
People sometimes treat a large jackpot as a sign of improved odds. Only the prize has gone up, while the likelihood of triggering it normally remains the same. No pool is overdue just because it has not paid for months; the reasoning matches that for a scatter.

Using it in practice
Base-game RTP tends to run lower on progressive games, as part of what would be returned goes to the pool. Certain offers qualify only at a maximum stake, and betting less means playing a strictly inferior version of the game. The fastest way to sort it out is by comparing it with what volatility means, which sits next to it in most rulebooks.
You will meet terms like Progressive jackpot on many game pages here; if the studio has not published the figure behind one, the page says so rather than using a number from a comparison site. Some spec tables here have unfilled cells, and this is the explanation.
