Hi team,

Just noticed yesterday that there were some issues with the promotions.We’ve been taking down the promotions until the US team can resolve the issue, which causes the promotions to remain unpublished for a longer period. To streamline this, I had a discussion with Alyssa last night, and we proposed reverting to our approach from 2021 and 2022 for handling similar situations. So, if the EDS or OPT IN ID is not working, here’s what we’ll do:

  1. Unpublish the promotions – including carousels and any other live content that provides user access to the page.
  2. Raise the issue in the OPS & CMS group chat. Don, Ralph, and Aman will add you if you need to raise an issue.
  3. Be sure to include the following:
  • A description of the issue
    • The promo and the PAT ID
    • A screenshot
  • Tag Alex Oppenheimer, Anu Deep Lakkavaram, and Simran Yadav.

OPS will then check this when they log in, with the earliest being at 3 PM Manila time.We can then reset things once they provide a new ID or resolve the existing issue on their end.\This process will provide visibility not only to our US counterparts but also to all other stakeholders involved.It will also help ensure quicker resolution and minimize the time a promotion stays unpublished.

If you have any questions or need clarification, please feel free to reach out.

Thank you!

tl;dr​

The tournament page CTAs for Poker Welcome Offers should follow the templates below to improve consistency across the BetMGM and Borgata sites.

  • Sign Up CTA, Filtered for not registered players
  • Log In CTA, Filtered for registered and not logged-in players
  • Deposit Funds CTA, See Bonus CTA, and See Tickets CTA, Filtered for registered and logged-in players

For BetMGM:

<p>
<a data-content-filter="NOT User.IsKnown" class="btn" style="background-color: #00a35b; color: #ffffff;" href="!!M2.Portal/mobileportal/register">Sign Up</a>
<a data-content-filter="User.IsKnown AND NOT User.LoggedIn" class="btn" style="background-color: #00a35b; color: #ffffff;" href="!!M2.Portal/labelhost/login">Log In</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn" style="background-color: #00a35b; color: #ffffff;" href="!!M2.Portal/mobileportal/cashier/deposit">Deposit Funds</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn" style="background-color: #00a35b; color: #ffffff;" href="!!M2.Promo/offers/grouped?filter=pb">See Bonus</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn" style="background-color: #00a35b; color: #ffffff;" href="!!Poker.Launcher">See Tickets</a>
</p>

For Borgata Online:

<p>
<a data-content-filter="NOT User.IsKnown" class="btn btn-primary" href="!!M2.Portal/mobileportal/register">SIGN UP</a>
<a data-content-filter="User.IsKnown AND NOT User.LoggedIn" class="btn btn-primary" href="!!M2.Portal/labelhost/login">LOG IN</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn btn-primary" href="!!M2.Portal/mobileportal/cashier/deposit">DEPOSIT FUNDS</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn btn-primary" href="!!M2.Promo/offers/grouped?filter=pb">SEE BONUS</a>
<a data-content-filter="(User.IsKnown AND User.LoggedIn) AND NOT User.IsRealPlayer" class="btn btn-primary" href="!!Poker.Launcher">SEE TICKETS</a>
</p>

Context:​

  • On 11/19/24, Alyssa asked the Poker team if they had a preference for the CTA for Poker welcome offers. The reason is that they are inconsistent, with some pages that say DEPOSIT NOW bringing users to a login page, and others that say REGISTER NOW bringing users to registration.
  • Vivian clarified where the discrepancy was observed and that Alyssa was referring to Tournament Pages. She also suggested a set of filtered CTAs for different sets of users (not registered, not logged in, etc.)
  • Will O'Connor gave confirmation to use the CTAs suggested by Vivian.

Hi all,

Please note that a small change will need to take place when building landing pages. The DL below is from a Nevada LP and can be used as a reference:

Direct Link

You can use the above link as a template or just make sure to update the script footer as seen in the image attached. This will allow the SEO team to better track page views.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

Hello everyone,

For PAT Player Activity, the MPP secondary CTA has always been See My Progress for BetMGM or SEE MY PROGRESS for all other labels except BetMGM, directing to !!M2.Promo/offers/grouped?filter=cp, so that players are directed to the Filtered, Casino PAT Promotions Hub Page to search for the specific PAT Player Activity, Promotions Hub Tile.

--

However, we should optimize our user journey with less steps, so for single Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, the Parent Final PAT ID will not reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since the promotion will start and end just once, the MPP secondary CTA should direct to !!M2.Promo/pa/PAT ID #, but with the PAT ID # replaced with the actual number instead, for example, 123456 for !!M2.Promo/pa/123456, so that players are immediately directed to the PAT Player Activity Page, specifically the My Progress Tab in which the URL will automatically prepopulate and end with …/promo/pa/PAT ID #/myprogress if the players have successfully opted-in, or specifically the Overview Tab in which the URL will automatically prepopulate and end with …/promo/pa/PAT ID #/overview if the players have not successfully opted-in yet.

For example:

Borgata Online NJ and PA: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/668d8a59000bfe045502506b03f56520/updates

For this single Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, Promotion, the Parent Final PAT IDs will not reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since these Parent Final PAT IDs will start and end just once, although it is one (1) week from August 26th to September 1st for Borgata Online PA, but two (2) weeks from August 26th to September 8th for Borgata Online NJ, to get the maximum reward value of $25 Bonus Dollars during then:

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotion Offer:

$25 Bonus Dollars is the maximum Bonus Dollars a player can earn throughout the Promotional Period.

Please note that this Promotion is live, so you can log into a test account to see this in-action.

Wheel of Fortune Casino NJ: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/668bebd1000f0171ad5c2d9cdce42e0d/updates

For this single Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, Promotion, the Parent Final PAT IDs did not reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since these Parent Final PAT IDs started and ended just once, but twice for the two (2) runs from August 5th to 9th for Final PAT ID, 26054477 and August 19th to 23rd for Final PAT ID, 26056242, to get the maximum reward value of $30 Bonus Dollars during then:

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotional Offer:

$30 is the maximum Bonus Dollars a player can earn throughout the Promotional Period.

Please note that this Promotion is no longer live.

Wheel of Fortune Casino NJ: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/66b3ac9d003c9475cf2f9b94e9e5d444/updates

For this single Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, Promotion, the Parent Final PAT ID will not reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since this Parent Final PAT ID will start and end just once from September 2nd to 6th, to get the maximum reward value of $30 Bonus Dollars during then:

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotional Offer:

$30 is the maximum Bonus Dollars a player can earn throughout the Promotional Period.

Please note that this Promotion will be live next week, so you can log into a test account to see this in-action next week.

--

For multiple Promotional Days or Weeks, Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, the Parent Final PAT ID will reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since the promotion will start and end more than just once, the MPP secondary CTA can still direct to !!M2.Promo/offers/grouped?filter=cp.

For example:

For these multiple Promotional Days, Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, Promotions, the Parent Final PAT IDs will reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since these Children Final PAT IDs will start and end each Promotional Day until the last Promotional Day.

BetMGM MI, NJ, and PA: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/669041fe0000dc51ca9220708099444e/updates

To get the maximum reward value of $5, $10, $15, $20, or $25 Casino Bonus per Promotional Day, depending on the tier:

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotion Offer:

$5/$10/$15/$20/$25 is the maximum Casino Bonus a player can earn per day throughout the Promotional Period.

BetMGM WV: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/668eac15005745eaadbe3b6a0c57d815/updates

To get the maximum reward value of $10 Casino Bonus per Promotional Day:

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotion Offer:

$10 is the maximum Casino Bonus a player can earn per day throughout the Promotional Period.

Please note that these Promotions are live, so you can log into a test account to see this in-action, especially the PAT ID # in the URL or How it works Tab, Promotion Code changing every Promotional Day.

For these multiple Promotional Weeks, Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, Promotions, the Parent Final PAT IDs will reproduce Children Final PAT IDs, since these Children Final PAT IDs will start and end each Promotional Week until the last Promotional Week, to get the maximum reward value of $10 Bonus Dollars per Promotional Week.

NJ PartyCasino: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/667f16f20053e803242c39bc25c76fb9/updates

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotion Offer:

Players can earn a maximum of $10 in Bonus Dollars each week valid on PartyCasino Slots on their first deposit of each week.

Wheel of Fortune Casino NJ: https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/65491955005bee293807c87a331dc6a4/updates

Terms and Conditions > Claiming Promotion Offer:

Players can earn a maximum of $10 in Bonus Dollars each week valid on Wheel of Fortune Casino Slot games on their first deposit of each week.

Please note that these Promotions are live, so you can log into a test account to see this in-action, especially the PAT ID # in the URL or How it works Tab, Promotion Code changing every Promotional Week.

--

The key to determining which direction to use is by reviewing the How It Works and/or Terms and Conditions, but if you incorrectly directed to the Final PAT Player Activity Page for multiple Promotional Days or Weeks, Promotional Period, PAT Player Activity, promotion instead, then no worries, since that will attempt to direct to the Final PAT Player Activity Page, but will fail, since only the Child PAT Player Activity Page is available then, and redirect back to the Home, Promotions Hub Page, which is another reason why site-checking is important.

Please do not hesitate and feel free to let me know if you have any question and/or concern at all.

Thank you as always for your attention, understanding, assistance, and time.

Kind regards,

Vivian
