#2: Free-to-Play Jackpot Games Drive Casino Player Engagement
Clients like Prairie Band Casino and Three Rivers Casino had record numbers of loyalty program members AND new players.
These clients were among the dozens that offered a free-to-play Jackpot game with a $1,000,000 prize.
The concept is simple: hang a big prize out there for a big game and watch the results roll in.
