MediaTroopers To Launch In Mississippi

Published

on

 

Pioneering digital marketing agency MediaTroopers has announced that it will be going live in Mississippi this weekend alongside online sports betting giant BetMGM.

As a digital marketing agency with decades of combined experience in regulated online gambling, MediaTroopers is a leading publisher in the sports betting, casino, and poker regulated US markets, focused on generating leads and acquiring paying customers for online casinos and sportsbook operators.

Sam Segal, MediaTroopers CEO said: “We have not one, but two causes for celebration this weekend. The first is launching our activities in a new state, which is always exciting. The second is the fact we are entering Mississippi with one of the best sportsbook operators in the country which is BetMGM.”

Deriving from its experience and track record in 16 other US states where online betting and gambling is legal, MediaTroopers is now expanding its reach operations into Mississippi, providing top-quality advertising and information services to the state’s authorized betting operators. The company plans to deliver a wider audience with up-to-date news on sporting events, game predictions, great sportsbooks, and online casino offers.

Segal added: “Mississippi is a state we are really looking forward to work in. Its sports fans have tons of soul, and we are looking to bring them more excitement and fun with safe, legal, and responsible sports betting. And there’s no better way to introduce Mississippians to sports betting than through the amazing BetMGM brand”.

Just in time for the kickoff of this year’s NFL season, BetMGM offers competitive odds, a multitude of betting lines, and a wide range of sports betting markets. The sportsbook has rapidly expanded its services across the United States, now providing the people of Mississippi with a superior retail sports betting platform at the Gold Strike Casino Resort in Tunica and the Beau Rivage Resort & Casino in Biloxi, both opening back in 2018.

BetMGM’s lucrative welcome offer will also remain the same, meaning all new bettors to the sportsbook can claim a risk-free first bet up to a massive $1,000.

MediaTroopers is licensed and operational in 14 US states, including Arizona, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Indiana, Tennessee, Illinois, Michigan, Washington DC, West Virginia, Virginia, Iowa, and Wyoming.

BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, announced a new partnership with Push Gaming, a B2B online gaming industry supplier. The first phase of the partnership brings some of Push Gaming’s top slot titles to BetMGM Casino in Ontario. In 2025, pending regulatory approval, BetMGM will be the exclusive partner for Push Gaming in the US.

Some of Push Gaming’s most popular slots, including Retro Tapes, Big Bamboo, Razor Returns, and Wild Swarm 2 are now available at BetMGM Casino and Wheel of Fortune Casino in Ontario, with more top titles arriving soon. Retro Tapes won Gambling News’ Most Watched and Most Streamed Slot Award in 2023. Retro Tapes immerses players in a late 20th-century-themed atmosphere with state-of-the-art graphics and sound design.

“Push Gaming’s exciting slots resonate with players and elevate the iGaming experience. We are proud to partner with Push Gaming and add their popular slots to our online casinos in Ontario which offers players a vast variety of over 3,000 titles,” Oliver Bartlett, VP of Gaming Product & Content at BetMGM, said.

This deal is a landmark occasion for both brands, signalling Push Gaming’s first-ever market entry with BetMGM, one of the leaders in the online casino industry in the province. The combination of BetMGM’s industry leadership with Push Gaming’s innovative, mobile-first approach positions both companies for continued success and growth. Ontario experienced an increase in total wagers to $18 billion (CAD) during the second quarter of the 2024-25 fiscal year according to iGaming Ontario (iGo), with online casinos accounting for an 86% share of the province’s total wagers.

Having some of our biggest games available to BetMGM players, one of the industry’s largest names, is a milestone in our evolution as a developer and we’re incredibly excited at the potential of our partnership. As well as being committed to creating the best slots the industry has to offer, it is also our priority to ensure that content is available to as many players as possible, in tandem with the very best operators, globally. Working with BetMGM fits those goals perfectly and the ensuing long-term closer cooperation across North America that this will bring gives us an amazing foothold in key regions,” Fiona Hickey, Chief Business Development Officer at Push Gaming, said.

BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, announced a major enhancement to its customer experience by consolidating BetMGM Reward Points (BRPs) into a single account. In addition to users’ cash balance, this feature enables BetMGM Rewards Points to travel with them across jurisdictions.

Streamlining BetMGM Rewards Points into a single account is the next phase of BetMGM’s single, digital wallet.

Through operation and partnership with MGM Resorts, this innovative feature makes BetMGM the only legalized sports betting app that allows Nevada residents and visitors to wager in the state and carry their funds to BetMGM mobile markets across the US.

“We are committed to streamlining the loyalty experience for our players so they can enjoy the rewards they earn wherever they are in the US. The BetMGM Rewards Program showcases our key differentiators — omnichannel play, the iconic hospitality and MGM Resorts International’s entertainment, and partnerships including our alliance with Marriott Bonvoy. With every bet at the sportsbook and spin of the slot you are earning rewards that can be used online or in-person,” said Adam Greenblatt, CEO of BetMGM.
