Jackpot! DeVito/Verdi Wins Big with Golden Hearts Games
NEW YORK, Sept. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Golden Hearts Games has called DeVito/Verdi's number to handle an awareness and traffic-driving assignment for its innovative, online promotional games platform that offers cash payouts and prizes – with a charitable twist.
The Boston-based technology company, founded by longtime games industry veterans, features slots, bingo and an expanding roster of QuickPlay™ online promotional games where adults compete for rewards and cash prizes, while supporting their favorite charity.
The online games category continues to experience explosive growth. According to Statista, the global online gaming market generated approximately $21 billion in revenues last year, which translates to a record 21.9 percent growth compared to the previous year.
Prior to playing, consumers select a philanthropic organization – any IRS-recognized U.S. public charity – to receive recurring or a la carte donations.
DeVito/Verdi will be tasked with providing overall strategic direction, various creative elements and media buying and placement across several digital and traditional media.
The New York advertising agency will seek to raise awareness of the games platform among potential players and drive traffic to the site to sign up, identify a charity to support and begin playing in order to win cash and rewards.
"This is such a unique concept that marries slots, bingo and other classic interactive games with a charitable element," said Ellis Verdi, president of DeVito/Verdi. "It's a fun, modern way to support charitable organizations and a great way to win some money for yourself while doing good for the community. And it's a powerful platform where charitable organizations can develop and maintain relationships with the small donors who are the lifeblood of philanthropy, but who are typically very difficult and costly for organizations to reach."
Golden Hearts also features video poker, slot machines, instant "scratch-off" games and other opportunities to win cash and prizes. Its most popular offering, "Golden Hearts Bingo™," offers a classic, live-action game every 10 minutes, 24/7, with $5 - $250 cash prizes every game. Players' donations are processed by The Givinga Foundation, a U.S. 501 (c) (3) charity that makes grants to each individual donor's desired charity.
