BetMGM, the new UK iGaming and online sportsbetting brand from MGM Resorts International, has released its very first advertising campaign starring American comedian and actor Chris Rock.
With the brand having been launched just recently, the fully-integrated campaign shows how BetMGM can provide the best that Las Vegas has to offer, introducing a new golden era in sports and online casino as well as bringing entertainment to the UK betting industry.
The campaign features the famous award-winning entertainer Chris Rock with a lion on a gold speedboat traveling from the Bellagio Fountains to the Thames. The campaign aims to introduce the brand and its “golden” offers and products, with Chris Rock imparting details on enhanced bonuses, price boosts and the industry-leading Free to Play £2 million prize for correctly predicting six Premier League Scores (Golden Goals) as well as exclusive BetMGM content and one of the biggest jackpots in the UK; currently totaling to £15.4 million.
Aside from the hero campaign which had been developed in partnership with London-based creative agency Recipe, the company has made a responsible gambling ad, ensuring players to keep their play safe.
Sam Behar, UK Director of BetMGM, said:
“We are incredibly excited to launch BetMGM in the UK and give customers something new. This campaign leverages the heritage of MGM Resorts’ best-in-class Las Vegas entertainment to deliver a unique proposition to the UK market. Alongside standout promotions and our A-list ambassador Chris Rock, this campaign clearly demonstrates BetMGM’s commitment to bringing a fresh and entertaining approach to the market. It’s showtime!”
