Bingo Treasures to Launch with Participation from Jamul Casino
VKGS LLC (Video King) has announced the completion of its first Managed Services Agreement in the State of California with the Jamul Indian Village Development Corporation, owner and operator of Jamul Casino. A favorite among San Diegans, Jamul Casino is one of the region’s top destinations for food, fun, gaming, and entertainment.
“We are thrilled to partner with Jamul Casino to launch our Class II Certified Bingo Game. Bingo Treasures features all of the traditional bingo game elements that bingo players will love, including the ability to pick their own numbers, play for a common game ending pattern on a 5×5 bingo card, and having an opportunity to win in every game. We expect that our addition of multi-million-dollar weekly jackpots will accelerate the growth of Bingo Treasures as a nationally linked Class II bingo product. This will allow Indian Country to finally host and offer to players life-changing jackpots, which can compete for dollars players are currently spending on lottery type products,” Rusty Morin, Vice President of Video King, said.
This product can be sold from all facilities located on Tribal lands held in trust, including casinos, hotels, restaurants, gift shops, smoke shops, golf courses, convenience stores, and gas stations.
Bingo Treasures is offered by Video King and Parlay Games Inc. (Parlay), who combined their efforts and synergistic intellectual property assets into a new joint venture in 2021. The partnership has leveraged Video King’s international land-based electronic bingo footprint and Parlay’s online Bingo and international iGaming assets. The joint venture partners are also working to offer additional Class II games in the future, which will leverage the attributes of the Tribal network that is being created with Bingo Treasures.
“Jamul Casino is thrilled to be the first California Tribal Casino to partner with Video King for Bingo Treasures, and we are excited to introduce the game at Jamul Casino. We are also delighted to be a host for the live weekly ball draws, which we intend to make very entertaining when we launch,” Mary Cheeks, President and General Manager of Jamul Casino, said.
