Jackpot.com – the online lottery courier service that allows consumers to purchase official state lottery tickets on their phone, tablet, or computer – announced an exclusive collaboration with 7-Eleven Inc., the largest convenience store chain in the world, to serve as their official lottery courier service.

As part of the collaboration, 7-Eleven customers in Ohio and Massachusetts will be able to sign up and play lottery games and scratchers on the Jackpot.com app or website. The program will initially be launched in over 600 7-Eleven and Speedway stores in Ohio and Massachusetts, with a special launch promotion that gives 7-Eleven customers a free lottery ticket on their first deposit by using promo code, “7Eleven”.

“We’re thrilled to work with 7-Eleven, the leading retailer of lottery tickets in the country. Leveraging our technology and innovation, we can provide additional convenience for their customers, while adding an additional source of revenue. A true win-win relationship for all,” said Akshay Khanna, CEO and co-founder of Jackpot.com.

By launching in Ohio and Massachusetts in 2023 and 2024, respectively, Jackpot.com aims at adding another avenue for player convenience with one of the most widely recognized brands in the convenience-retailing space. With a presence in Ohio, the nation’s seventh-largest lottery market, and Massachusetts, whose state lottery produced $1.2 billion in net profit for the Commonwealth during the 2024 fiscal year, Jackpot.com’s collaboration with 7-Eleven represents an added layer of accessibility for players.

Jackpot.com remains committed to responsible play and has significantly invested in protocols by allowing customers of legal age to set spend limits and limits on daily deposits, all while providing access to local and national responsible gambling resources, self-exclusion, self-suspension, and automated notifications that offer help should problematic behavior be detected. Jackpot.com is also the only lottery courier service to launch with an iCap certification from the National Council on Problem Gambling.

21VIRAL has confirmed the integration of Bitblox’s unique crypto-price-based games into its platform. This distribution deal allows 21VIRAL access to popular games such as “3 in a Row,” “Up or Down?” and “Up or Down? Turbo.”

In these prediction games, players can guess whether the price of Bitcoin will rise or fall. The timing is particularly favourable, as the recent bull run in cryptocurrencies and heightened mainstream awareness following the US presidential election have contributed to their popularity.

Christoph Härtel, CEO of 21VIRAL, stated, “We are excited to onboard Bitblox Games to our GameConnector platform. These unique games, based on the crypto market, are highly entertaining and engaging, providing our operator partners with an innovative way to attract and retain players across Latin America.”

Brandt Page, CEO of Bitblox Games, added, “Working with the 21VIRAL team has been a pleasure, from our initial discussions to the contract exchange. The fast integration took less than four weeks, which is a significant advantage for any game studio like ours. Speed to market is crucial for optimal distribution of our crypto-prediction games.”

“The recent developments in the US have led to a surge in the crypto market, increasing the demand for our games within the iGaming ecosystem. As awareness of cryptocurrencies continues to grow in mainstream media, we look forward to collaborating with 21VIRAL and expanding our distribution in the Latin American market”.
