Promotion Ideas for Casinos: June & September

Chris Gardiner has a very big idea for casinos this month: it’s time to “think tank”…as in gas tank.!  Let’s face it, with prices at the pump climbing quickly, offers for gas cards, free tanks of gas or better still – a “tanker truck” full of fuel are sure to be a hit. And Odds On makes it easy to capitalize on this trend. FAST CASH FOR GAS is a scratch and win card that gives your players the chance to win a $100,000 “gas card”, courtesy of Odds On. If your player can unveil 6 winning symbols on one of your customizable cards, they’ll score some serious gas money and Odds On Promotions will pay at the pump!  Plus, you can hand out coupons and smaller discounts based on collecting fewer symbols.

Millions in Minnesota! Nice …

Mall of America, Minn. – This Spring, the Minnesota State Lottery gave a few lucky members of their player’s club the chance to win prizes ranging from $10,000 to $1,000,000 in a Pick ‘Til You Win envelope promotion at the Mall of America.

All spring, the MN State Lottery held Scratch-O-Rama  “qualifying tournaments” at various venues across the state where eighteen finalists qualified for the Scratch-O-Rama Grand Finale Event at Mall of America in April. In addition to the finalists, two more contestants were chosen at Mall of America and given the chance to win big with just a scratch!

After three rounds of fast and furious scratching, Karen Fries of Redwood Falls got the chance to score the big bucks if she could locate the five matching $1,000,000 grand prize symbols before locating five of the second, third or fourth place symbols, playing Odds On Promotions’ Million Dollar Match Lucky Envelopes game.

According to Zak Woodhead, Risk Manager for Odds On Promotions, “What made this Million Dollar Match promotion is how the Lottery used insured prizes; they not only insured the grand prize of $1 million, but the 2nd place prize of $50,000 and the third place prize of $20,000, while self-insuring the $10,000 prize.”

Check out the great video about the event.
