Gambit’s Free-to-Play Betting and Gaming Platform Partners with Scuti’s Rewards Marketplace, Offering Dual Revenues to Players and Brands

Scuti, the pioneer of gCommerce and the world’s first universal rewards marketplace, today announced their partnership with Gambit Rewards, a regulator-approved consumer network that integrates loyalty programs with online gaming and sports betting in America. This partnership will allow Gambit members access to the Scuti Marketplace and full integration to Scuti-based platforms and rewards. Players will be able to purchase physical goods through Scuti and use their rewards to place free bets on Gambit’s platform.

Created by an experienced group of video game veterans, Scuti’s marketplace provides players direct access to curated products, promotional offers, and rewards. These rewards can be redeemed for in-game virtual items, exchanged for native currency, or used to purchase any physical goods in the Scuti catalog. Gambit joins Scuti’s growing list of video game and metaverse partners who are providing their players access to Scuti’s gCommerce and rewards marketplace.

“Partnering with Scuti is a natural extension of the user experience,” said Richard Pistilli, founder and CEO of Gambit. “Together, we can bring Gambit’s unique take on free-to-play betting with real cash prizes to the gaming community at large. Scuti’s audiences enjoy in-game experiences, and Gambit turbo charges that with risk-free betting.”

Players can now swap their rewards, called Scuti$, for Gambit tokens to activate risk-free wagers on any game of choice and win cash or other prizes at no personal cost. Each purchase of consumer goods from the Scuti Marketplace rewards players with up to 5% of the purchase prices, in Scuti$.

“We see this partnership as a pivotal turn for gCommerce and rewards in the betting and gaming arena,” said Nicholas Longano, Founder and CEO of Scuti, “Play-to-earn games are moving mainstream and this partnership makes it easier for players to enjoy gaming with rewards fueled from the very products they purchase every day. Gamers can now shop or play-to-earn and use those rewards to place bets that come at no personal cost.”

Through Scuti, players discover fully curated products and promotional offers from top brands directly from their games. Players receive brand-fueled rewards with every engagement and purchase they make through the Scuti marketplace.  Because Scuti is a universal rewards system, players can earn and redeem Scuti$ from any game on any device connected to the Scuti network, including Gambit Rewards.

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

Published

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.

Let me be perfectly clear

Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.

Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.

We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.

We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.

To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.

 

Sincerely

Matt Zamroźniak

Chief Executive Officer

Prime Skill Games Inc.
