New Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Mobile App from Scientific Games Brings Modern, Enhanced Features to Players

Company’s Newest Mobile App Gives Players Added Features and Quick, Easy Access
Scientific Games developed a new mobile app for the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery to give players in the state more convenience when connecting to the lottery, its games and player loyalty program, The Club. Now available through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, the new AR Lottery + Club app features a biometric login, new navigation and a user-friendly design.
“The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery wanted to offer our players a modern experience and convenient, easy connection to our games and loyalty club from their mobile device,” Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Gaming Director, Mike Smith, said. “With the new app, players verify tickets easily with the ticket checker and create digital play-slips from the convenience of their phone.”
Biometric login makes it easy for players to access their Club account via the new app. The app’s all new ticket checker feature allows players to quickly check whether their tickets are winners. Players can also use the app to create digital play-slips, which save their lucky numbers and play options, then scan the QR code at any Arkansas Scholarship Lottery retailer to quickly purchase games.
As with the previous version of the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery app, players may connect to The Club to enter non-winning instant tickets in Play It Again drawings and other special second-chance promotions. They can also enter eligible instant and terminal-generated tickets to earn Points for Prizes that are redeemable in the online store.
The Arkansas Scholarship Lottery mobile app has been available for players since 2015. The modernized, enhanced features of the new app bring even more convenience and connectivity to players.
“We are leveraging our core strength and leadership in instant scratch games across all areas of innovation including digital,” the Senior Vice-President of Digital Solutions for Scientific Games, Amy Bergette, said. “Through continuous investment in our loyalty solution for lotteries, Scientific Games has further evolved our program by offering an upgraded, modern and native mobile app that makes it easier for players to enjoy programs like The Club in Arkansas. We look forward to players downloading the new app for an enhanced experience and connection to the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery’s games and brand.”
In 2009, Scientific Games and the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery launched the first lottery loyalty program in the US. Today, the lottery’s loyalty program is one of the most successful in the industry with more than 101.5 million tickets entered into the program since its inception. The program has awarded more than 1.2 billion points to players to redeem Points for Prizes in Scientific Games’ online store.
In addition to the mobile app and loyalty program, the company provides the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery with instant games and instant game management through the Scientific Games Enhanced Partnership program, licensed properties and a customer relationship management program.
Scientific Games provides retail and digital games, technologies, analytics and services to 130 lotteries in 50 countries including nearly every North American lottery. Points for Prizes is a registered trademark of Scientific Games.

GameSquare Announces Strategic Partnership with Rekt Brands Inc.

GameSquare Holdings Inc., a next-generation media, entertainment, technology, and onchain treasury company, announced a new $2 million agency of record partnership with Rekt Brands Inc., the parent company behind Rekt Drinks, a beverage brand rapidly emerging as a cultural force in Web3, which is on course to sell over 1 million cans within its first 12 months of operations. This marks the second agency of record win for GameSquare in August 2025, bringing the total new Web3 revenue to $6.25 million and reinforcing the Company’s position as a growth engine for crypto-native brands. The partnership builds on the momentum of GameSquare’s Ethereum treasury strategy, which has positioned the Company among the top public ETH holders and cemented its role as a bridge between traditional capital markets and on-chain finance, tapping the cultural engines of gaming and media to drive durable growth.
“We are excited to announce our latest agency of record deal with Rekt. Since launching our onchain strategy in July 2025, we have quickly established a strong and growing pipeline of crypto-native organizations seeking partners with proven capabilities to help them reach and engage audiences at scale. GameSquare’s established operating platform positions us uniquely to meet this demand and we are excited to add Rekt Drinks and $REKT to our growing roster of Web3 partners and treasury assets,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare.
Working with Rekt, a crypto-native consumer brand company at the forefront of culture, creativity, and community, GameSquare will collaborate on both physical and digital products, and experiences targeting gaming and crypto-native fans. GameSquare will also provide strategic guidance to Rekt to grow awareness for its currency, create new products, and merge the best of Rekt with immersive gaming worlds. Rekt will also gain brand placement on FaZe Esports’ iconic jerseys, extending visibility across one of the largest youth culture and gaming platforms in the world.
“Rekt was never about just launching a drink, it’s about building a movement. With GameSquare, we’re taking that movement global. Their dominance in gaming and youth culture makes them the ideal partner to accelerate our engagement loop, where community isn’t just about being a consumer, it is the foundation of brand ownership. This is an opportunity to merge internet culture, Web3 mechanics, and new-age finance into something far bigger than just drinks,” said Ovie Faruq, CEO and co-founder of Rekt Drinks.
$REKT Coin has a current fully diluted value of over $360 million according to CoinMarketCap.com, and is focused on developing and incentivizing several different verticals spanning art, culture, media, NFTs, and physical goods.
Rekt is born from the Rektguy NFT collection—a cult-favorite digital art project with a passionate, crypto-native community and high-profile holders including Snoop Dogg, Steve Aoki, Bassjackers, and Gary Vaynerchuk. Paired with $REKT Coin, a brand-focused cryptocurrency earned through product purchases and community engagement, these digital assets fuel a closed-loop ecosystem where customers become stakeholders in brand sentiment.
