Hotel, casino, dining, and spa offers among rewards available to players on PLAYSTUDIOS award winning free-to-play apps

LAS VEGAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–As part of its ongoing commitment to expand rewards opportunities for millions of players worldwide, PLAYSTUDIOS is teaming up with Peppermill Resorts to offer exclusive rewards at its AAA Four Diamond Peppermill Resort Spa Casino in Reno, Nevada and Montego Bay Casino and Resort in West Wendover, Nevada. Through the partnership, players of PLAYSTUDIOS free-to-play apps – myVEGAS Slots, myVEGAS Bingo, myVEGAS Blackjack, my KONAMI Slots, and POP! Slots – will have the opportunity to exchange loyalty points for real-world experiences, special offers, and complimentary items at both properties. PLAYSTUDIOS recently entered into a merger agreement with Acies Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: ACAC, ACACU, ACACW) (“Acies”) which, upon closing, will result in the Company becoming a Nasdaq listed company under the ticker symbol “MYPS.”

The expanded playAWARDS rewards portfolio offers both midweek and weekend complimentary guest rooms, exclusive player rates, and free casino play at Peppermill Reno. The partnership will also include a selection of rewards available at Peppermill Reno’s sister property, Montego Bay Casino and Resort. Additional dining rewards at Peppermill Reno’s lineup of eateries and rewards at Spa Toscana will be added in the future as local and state-mandated pandemic guidelines and restrictions allow.

“Award-winning hospitality experiences and complimentary perks are the hallmarks of our playAWARDS portfolio,” says PLAYSTUDIOS Head of playAWARDS Rob Oseland. “Our partnership with Peppermill Resorts expands our ability to offer geographically accessible rewards to more of our players from destinations we’re confident they will enjoy discovering.”

Peppermill Reno, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2021, is recognized as one of Northern Nevada’s premier resort destinations and is home to the largest poker room in Reno. Montego Bay in West Wendover is a multistate destination for gaming, golf, and entertainment at the famed Peppermill Concert Hall.

“Peppermill Reno is rooted in premier hospitality and we have long sought out partnerships with brands that reflect our values,” says Peppermill General Manager, Billy Paganetti. “Together with playAWARDS, we are giving millions of players the opportunity to stay, play, and relax in our world-class destination.”

Developed by award-winning mobile and social gaming leader PLAYSTUDIOS, the playAWARDS loyalty marketing platform connects players to a growing lineup of rewards from global hospitality, entertainment, travel, leisure, and lifestyle brands, including MGM Resorts International, Wolfgang Puck, Maverick Helicopters, Gray Line Tours, House of Blues, Norwegian Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean International, among others.
