The New Jersey Devils have announced a multi-year partnership with Jackpocket, the leading lottery app in the US to provide a secure way to order official state lottery tickets. With this partnership, the company becomes the Devils Official Lottery Courier Partner.

“New Jerseyans, and specifically Devils fans, are more likely to play the lottery than many across the country. Jackpocket is proud to partner with the Devils to bring this dedicated fan base a simple, fun way to play the lottery. We are excited to introduce new in-game activities and experiences to this fan base throughout the coming years,” Jackpocket CEO Peter Sullivan said.

One such experience is the “First Goal of the Game” social media contest where during all regular season games fans can guess who will score the first goal of each game. Whoever guesses correctly will be entered to win a signed player photo from a current Devils player. Fans can submit their first goal scorer guess prior to each Devils game.

“Jackpocket presents Devils and sports fans in New Jersey an opportunity to take their naturally competitive spirit to the next level, from a trusted and celebrated partner. From Devils-themed lottery opportunities, to special Jackpocket-sponsored sweepstakes and exclusive prizes, we are confident Jackpocket will be the preferred, digital lottery platform for Devils fans – who are already five times more likely to play the lottery than the national average,” Adam Cross, New Jersey Devils Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships, said.
