Slice Launches The Nation's Largest Retail Gaming Rewards Program

- Slice, the innovative tech platform powering the largest network of pizzerias nationwide, today announced the launch of Slice Gaming, an initiative that will give independent pizzerias the opportunity to incentivize their local customer base with video game perks, codes, and exclusives rewards. Slice Gaming makes its debut by way of a partnership with acclaimed gaming publisher, Ubisoft, and its highly anticipated launch of Far Cry 6 this October.

Slice launches Slice Gaming, the nation's largest retail gaming rewards program

Slice's core mission is to keep local businesses thriving by offering the same specialized technology, marketing, shared services, and guidance that pizza franchises offer franchisees. While we've seen gaming partnerships from QSR chains such as Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and Buffalo Wild Wings, this is the first time independent restaurant owners will be able to unlock a partnership at this level. With over 17,000 local pizzerias in its network — that's more locations than any single franchise in the U.S. — Slice Gaming will be one of the largest gaming rewards programs in the country.

"The purpose of this initiative, as with everything we do at Slice, is to bring more benefits to independent pizzerias and ultimately drive more sales for small businesses," said P.J. Oleksak, Chief Business Officer at Slice. "These types of partnerships drive loyalty for big chains and now, we're offering that level of marketing to the independent pizzerias within the Slice network. Ubisoft is a powerhouse in the gaming world and we're thrilled to be partnering with them as we enter the space and continue to collaborate with their team on more exciting initiatives to be revealed soon."

With Slice Gaming, gamers will get the added bonus of being rewarded for eating their favorite local pizza and supporting small businesses. For every purchase made through the Slice app over the next month, customers will receive exclusive Peso Pack codes. Peso Packs will allow Far Cry 6 players to earn in-game currency to purchase weapons, armor and intel from Guerrilla Camps and local arms dealers. Participating pizzerias will also offer a custom Far Cry 6 pizza exclusively available when ordering on Slice.

"We are proud to be partnering with Slice and the independent pizzerias in the Slice network," said Trevor Shackelford , Senior Director of Marketing at Ubisoft. "Over the past year and a half, we have all been reminded how important it is to support small businesses and independent restaurants. We're excited to be able to work with Slice to drive more business to local pizzerias while rewarding our community for eating local."

To celebrate the launch of Slice Gaming, Slice will give its customers the chance to be surprised by their local pizzeria with a highly sought-after PlayStation ® 5 console delivered directly to the doorstep of five lucky winners. Simply order from your go-to shop on the Slice app between 9/20/21 at 8:01 AM EDT - 9/26/21 at 11:59 PM EDT to be entered to win a chance for an epic delivery powered by Slice. No purchase necessary. See the Official Rules for additional eligibility restrictions, how to enter, prize descriptions/restrictions, and complete details.

The brief rally, which took GameStop shares to US$40.09 on Monday morning, was sparked by a Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) post made late Sunday (June 2) by an account tied to the video game retailer's most prominent supporter, Keith Gill.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.

Top Trends Shaping the Canadian iGaming Market

From emerging technologies to evolving regulations, the trajectory of iGaming has changed substantially in recent years as the market has experienced significant growth.

In 2022, Ontario's provincial government introduced game-changing legislation that established a regulatory framework for iGaming. Due to this legislation, regulated iGaming successfully displaced the unregulated market, according to Attorney General Doug Downey, creating over 1.6 million active player accounts across more than 70 operator websites as of April 2023 — just over one year following the change.

Ontario's regulation has also laid the groundwork for widespread change in the iGaming space across Canada. As iGaming continues to evolve, it's important to have a deeper understanding of both new and existing trends that will shape the industry's future, as well as regulations.
