Casino Promotion Worth $100K Insured at Mid-Atlantic Gaming Property

Whether your casino property is looking to attract more players and coin-in during the off-season or a notoriously low-traffic time frame, or if you’re just looking for something to generate excitement among your loyal players, Odds On has the perfect casino promotion for you!

This story comes to us from a casino property in the Mid-Atlantic, who used Odds On’s Zoom Ball promotion to help keep players on their property longer.

For two months this winter, the casino insured Odds On’s winter-themed “Blizzard of Cash” Zoom Ball casino promotion to increase play. Every Thursday, Friday and Saturday during selected promotional periods, the casino randomly selected players, giving them the chance to participate in the promotion. The promotion official would then activate the ball blower and each player would press the big red button on the machine, sending 6 balls flying into the machine’s “Zoom Zone.” If a contestant happened to get 6 blue-colored balls in the “Zone” they would have been an instant $100,000 winner, compliments of Odds On!

Casino Promotion Love Story: Valentine’s Day Zoom Ball!

Love is in the air at this Southwest casino property! That’s likely due to the fact that they’re giving players the chance to win the big bucks with a casino promotion from Odds On: Valentine’s Day Zoom Ball!

Here’s how this red hot casino promotion will work: during the month of February, qualifying players will have the opportunity to stop by the Zoom Ball machine and land 6 red balls in the machine’s “zoom zone.” If one of them happens to do so, they’ll win an instant $1,000,000, paid for by Odds On! Bonus: Anyone who gets 5 red balls in the zone, will walk away with $10,000, courtesy of Odds On!

Odds On’s Zoom Ball promotion comes complete with a customizable backlit sign, stock or customizable 3-sided cabinet wrap, and plugs into any standard outlet! You can even choose what colored balls you’d like to use, as well as what color you’d like the LED light surrounding the sign to be!

In addition to providing prize coverage for those who get 5 or 6 colored balls in the Zoom Zone, Odds On can assist with budgeting for smaller self-insured auxiliary prizes for those who get a smaller number of colored balls in the Zoom Zone. After all, no one likes leaving empty-handed … which is why Odds On recommends awarding $x in free play, or merchandise from one of your property’s gift shops or restaurants for those who get 2, 3 or 4 colored balls in the Zone. Not only will your players be greatly appreciative, it will incentivize them to come back for your next big promotion!
