Favorite & Local Team Games
Audiences: Local Fans and Parlay Players
Everybody roots for the home team, right? Players love the biggest games, and the biggest local rivalries.
Many of our clients with strong NCAA Football fan bases will run Conference games like "The Big 10 Challenge" or the "SEC Saturday Pick'em."
Of course, as a life-long Vikings fan, this is my favorite:
Go Vikes! :)
Jackpot Games
Audiences: Casual Fans and Casino Players
Big games deserve big prizes. And you don't have to wait for the Super Bowl.
Our insured games are a hit with our casino clients that love to let their loyalty program in on the action.
Players make 10 or more picks on a big game with an out-sized prize. Last year, we had one player just miss out on a $1,000,000 prize, yet pocketed a nice consolation prize.
Definitely a great way to build excitement for your players.
