SCCG Management and SMS Hospitality bring Gamerwager Licensed Peer to Peer Console Esports Wagering to the US

Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management, announces a partnership with Seth Schorr and his group of companies, to bring Gamerwager’s UK licensed, peer to peer console esports wagering platform, to the US.
Stephen Crystal said of the new partnership, “Joining forces with Seth Schorr has greatly enhanced our ability to access the growing esports wagering market with licensed peer to peer wagering platform, Gamerwager. The ability to provide casual gamers an easy to access platform for their favorite titles is essential to bringing broad consumer awareness to the esports wagering market.”
Gamer Wager developed the first Peer to Peer video game wagering platform approved by the UK Gambling Commission. The platform has been successfully launched in both the Play and App Stores, respectively, for the UK. The platform allows like-minded gamers to connect and wager with one another in a licensed and compliant environment. With a diverse portfolio of P2P esports betting markets under development, including daily tournaments, they aim to become the go-to P2P video game wagering platform worldwide. The world’s first fully licensed peer to peer video game betting platform on PS5 and XBOX consoles for popular US titles like Fortnite, Rocket League and Madden NFL. With the global esports betting market projected to exceed 205B USD by 2027, Gamer Wager is well positioned to claim its share of the esports opportunity.
Said Seth Schorr on the event, “For over seven years I have been an advocate of esports betting in Nevada and have collaborated with numerous players in the Peer to Peer wagering space. It was refreshing to find an operator that understands the regulatory requirements and has gambling in their DNA. Esports and gaming culture has never been more relevant to the casino industry and I am confident Gamer Wager will fill the void and offer casino customers the regulated Peer to Peer offering that is desired.”
Mark Goddard of CEO of Gamerwager said, “We are pleased to be partnering with Stephen Crystal and Seth Schorr on this incredible venture – a literal dream team for US esports gaming. We aim to connect millions of passionate gamers, in regulated markets, from around the world.”
