Xtremepush, the leading global customer engagement platform, has announced the strategic acquisition of US-based loyalty platform Scrimmage. The move enables Xtremepush to deliver a market-first, all-in-one solution that natively integrates real-time loyalty with its existing CDP, CRM, and free-to-play (F2P) products.

By bringing Scrimmage’s technology into its ecosystem, Xtremepush is launching XP Loyalty. This dynamic engine moves beyond traditional “points-only” programs, allowing operators to drive retention through a single data layer that supports live, granular personalization.

Solving the “Static Loyalty” Problem

The acquisition addresses a common pain point in the iGaming industry: generic loyalty programs that function in isolation. XP Loyalty replaces these “bolt-on” solutions with a unified system that utilizes:

• Gamification Elements: Missions, challenges, and leveling systems.

• Customization: Operator-specific currencies and personalized widgets.

• Real-Time Execution: Targeted “loyalty nudges” delivered precisely when a player is most likely to engage.

Because the system is fully controlled by CRM and marketing teams, operators can iterate strategies in real-time, improving cost efficiencies by minimizing the “cost of generosity”—ensuring rewards are only given when they provide the highest return on lifetime value.

Leadership and Integration

As part of the deal, Dan Taren, Scrimmage’s CEO, has joined Xtremepush as Head of Loyalty Product. He is currently overseeing a rigorous integration process where every line of code is being audited to ensure it fits into Xtremepush’s “one data layer” philosophy.

“We endeavor to be the ‘experts in the room’ for our customers,” said Tommy Kearns, CEO and co-founder at Xtremepush. “Bringing Scrimmage into the fold ensures we cement that position. We want to move the industry away from static legacy schemes and connect operators to their players in real-time at the most personal level possible.”

Dan Taren added: “Xtremepush is the only market player successfully unifying CRM, F2P, and now loyalty in one platform. That is critical in the optimal rollout of these solutions, especially as partners look to differentiate ahead of major events like this year’s World Cup.”

Editor’s Take

Why this matters: Florida is a “monopoly market” controlled by the Seminole Tribe, meaning there is only one door in: Hard Rock Bet. By securing vendor registration here, BETER gains access to one of the most populous states in the U.S. without the fragmentation of competition seen in states like New Jersey. The immediate deployment of Setka Cup (table tennis) fills a crucial need for 24/7, fast-paced content during U.S. daytime off-hours.

The Full Story

BETER, the provider of next-gen betting content and data, has officially entered the Florida sports betting market after securing Vendor Registration from the Seminole Tribe of Florida (dba Seminole Gaming).

The regulatory approval allows BETER to supply its fast-paced betting products to the state’s sole authorized operator, Hard Rock Bet.

Day One Impact: Table Tennis Following the approval, BETER has immediately launched its exclusive Setka Cup table tennis tournaments on the Hard Rock Bet platform.

• The Product: Setka Cup provides 24/7 live streaming, real-time data, and odds.

• The Reach: Florida becomes the fifth U.S. state where Setka Cup is available to bettors.

• The Metric: BETER covers approximately 700,000 fast-paced events annually, offering up to 50 betting markets per event with margins often exceeding market standards.

Next Phase: Esports While table tennis is live now, BETER has confirmed that its esports portfolio—specifically ESportsBattle—will be integrated into Hard Rock Bet in the “near future.” This will bring round-the-clock eFootball, eBasketball, and other fast-market disciplines to Florida bettors.

Management Commentary Chuck Robinson, Chief Revenue Officer at BETER, emphasized the strategic value of the exclusive Hard Rock partnership:

“Launching Setka Cup with our partner Hard Rock Bet is particularly significant, as it allows us to introduce our fast-betting content to Florida bettors through a highly trusted sportsbook platform. We see strong long-term potential in Florida… Our esports content, particularly ESportsBattle, will also be going live soon.”

Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, noted the complexity of the approval:

“Obtaining vendor registration in Florida reflects the strength of our regulatory strategy… We are grateful to the Seminole Tribe of Florida dba Seminole Gaming for their cooperation throughout the registration process.”

This approval is part of a wider U.S. expansion strategy for BETER, which has already secured access in key states including Ohio, Arizona, and Kentucky.
