Scientific Games and the Delaware Lottery successfully launched an all-new player loyalty program and mobile app. The Delaware Lottery Players Club combines the previous players club with a new loyalty program, offering players one go-to place for new perks, more conveniences and new, achievement-based ways to win cash and prizes. This marks the company’s 24th app development, the most in the lottery industry.

The new mobile app and player loyalty program are key components of the Scientific Games Enhanced Partnership program’s premier digital engagement services. The Delaware Lottery recently extended its contract with Scientific Games to modernize the Lottery’s entire tech ecosystem supporting instant, draw and Keno games, sports betting, video lottery, player loyalty, retail point-of-sale, retailer business intelligence, and the technology powering the SGEP instant game management program.

“We value our loyal players, and we want to offer them the best rewards program available through the convenience of a one-stop mobile app,” said Helene Keeley, Director of the Delaware Lottery. “The new Delaware Lottery Players Club offers the excitement of instant rewards to our players and quite a few conveniences all in one place. As part of our overall tech modernization initiative, we’re strengthening our players’ connection to the Delaware Lottery and helping support proceeds for vital programs and services in our state.”

Scientific Games’ achievement-based loyalty program allows players to earn points for every ticket entered and awards points when any achievement is completed. They can also earn points for completing in-program challenges. Players can redeem points earned for drawing entries for a chance to instantly win cash and other exciting prizes.

Featuring a biometric log-in system to keep players’ data secure, the new mobile app from Scientific Games offers players enhanced features that make playing Delaware Lottery games more convenient than ever. Players can use the app to find lottery retailers, check tickets, view winning numbers, create digital play slips, enter tickets to earn points, and redeem points.

“We are excited to modernize the Delaware Lottery’s loyalty program and mobile app with a new and improved solution that enhances the player experience,” said Amy Bergette, Senior Vice President of Digital Solutions for Scientific Games. “We are continually innovating digital solutions to ensure lottery players can easily and conveniently engage with the lottery, its games and so many ways to be entertained and win cash and prizes.”

In the past 10 years, the company’s products and solutions helped drive a 5.6% compound annual growth rate for the Delaware Lottery, which is ranked among the Top 25 lotteries in the world for total per capita sales (La Fleur’s 2023 World Almanac).

Currently, the company also provides the Delaware Lottery with instant scratch games and management services, licensed properties and monitor games, as well as a lottery gaming system, video lottery management system, customer relationship management program, retail point-of-sale technology, retailer management system, and sports betting.

Scientific Games serves 130 lotteries in 50 countries around the globe with products and solutions that responsibly drive maximum returns to their beneficiary programs.

College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025

 

  • CSMG will create and operate College Street FighterTM Tour in North America for the 2024-25 academic year
  • College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025
Collegiate Sports Management Group (CSMG) announced today during the kick-off of its Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) Texas presented by McDonald’s that it has joined forces with Capcom to launch the College Street FighterTM Tour during its 2024-25 academic year with the finalists competing at CECC Texas in 2025 throughout its May Madness event. Street FighterTM 6  will join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Overwatch 2®, Rocket League, and VALORANT as part of the official game titles for CECC.
“We are immensely excited to welcome Capcom into the CECC family and provide a path to glory for student athletes to showcase their skills in Street Fighter 6,” said Michael Schreck, Chief Executive Officer for CSMG. “In our fourth year of building May Madness, we continue to listen to our players, coaches and fans on how to make our event more inclusive, and the partnership with Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success.”
“The Street Fighter franchise is a multi-generational and global game series, so it’s important for us to continue to grow that fandom at the collegiate level,” said Michael Larson, Head of Esports at Capcom USA. “CECC continues to set the standard for competition and community, so it’s a natural format for expansion, and we’re eager for College Street Fighter Tour competitors across North America to show off their skills and join us in Texas next year.”
”The vision for the College Street Fighter Tour is a publisher backed esports series that integrates into the existing infrastructure of The Collegiate Esports Commissioners Cup, a bracket style event series that takes place every year and has been coined May Madness. The path to championship includes invitational bids to national and regional level conferences as well as official CECC qualifiers held regionally,” said Angela Bernhard Thomas, Chief Esports Officer for CSMG’s ESPORTSU.
Every college or university from a 2-year or 4-year institution can participate through their conference or through select qualifiers. Wim Stocks will serve as the Commissioner of the College Street Fighter Tour and bring his 20 years of experience in college esports to create a dynamic and engaging format of competitive gaming.
“Since the launch of Street Fighter 6 in June of ’23, it is clear the rich legacy of Street Fighter is stronger than ever and helping lift the fighting game community to still greater heights,” said Stocks. “Having a structure now for a national collegiate competitive series, league, and events, Capcom and ESPORTSU are building a phenomenal ecosystem and mechanism for developing up and coming Street Fighter 6 competitors.”
More details on the College Street Fighter Tour will be shared later this year.
CSMG welcomes 84 teams (up from 64 in 2023) this weekend from a record breaking 19 conference champions to the largest scholastic esports festival globally. They will compete at Esports Stadium Arlington on May 3-5 for the chance to hoist one of the coveted trophies. Fans can watch the CECC Texas on ESPORTSU’s Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/esportsu.
CECC Texas 2023 was also recently awarded LAN Event of the Year during the inaugural Scholars Awards in Las Vegas, which are produced in partnership with the Esports Awards.
