Jackpot.com Launches P2P Skill Games with THNDR Partnership

Jackpot.com has announced the launch of peer-to-peer (P2P) skill games and competitive tournaments, marking a significant expansion of its digital lottery courier platform. This development comes through a partnership with THNDR, a prominent B2B skill gaming platform, and positions Jackpot.com as the first lottery courier service to incorporate such games.

The introduction of skill games is noteworthy as it taps into the rapidly growing $46 billion skill game market, which emphasizes player skill over chance. This new offering includes popular games such as Blackjack, Skills Slots, and Solitaire, as well as competitive tournaments designed to create a community-driven experience for players.

Jackpot.com's integration of P2P skill games aims to attract a wider audience, particularly those who seek a more engaging gaming experience. Desiree Dickerson, CEO and Co-Founder of THNDR, stated, "Skill games make a lottery product more competitive and more complete, giving players new reasons to come back." This focus on player engagement reflects a shift in the gaming landscape, where skill-based games are becoming increasingly popular.

The games are powered by THNDR's Skill-Gaming Network, which has a high match-fill rate and a solid player base across various gaming sectors. This partnership allows Jackpot.com to offer instant matchmaking based on player skill, enhancing the overall gaming experience.

In addition to skill games, Jackpot.com continues to provide traditional lottery offerings, including draw games and scratch tickets. This thorough catalog positions the company as a complete gaming platform rather than just a ticket-ordering service.

The availability of P2P skill games and tournaments has already launched in several states, including Arkansas, Colorado, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Ohio. Players can access these games through the Jackpot.com mobile app, which is available on both iOS and Android.

This expansion follows Jackpot.com's recent collaboration with Kroger, enhancing its retail presence and reaching new customer demographics. By integrating skill-based gaming into its platform, Jackpot.com aims to engage a digitally-savvy audience that desires more interactive and competitive gaming experiences.
