Everyone just a note when building tiered promos - I know we've done many like this in the past, but when naming the MPP URL, let's stay away from adding 'high core,' 'low core,' 'VIP core' etc in the link. Most of the time, users won't see it but on the off chance someone is on desktop and paying attention to where the link is directing them, the target group info shouldn't be customer-facing.

For example: https://www.mi.betmgm.com/en/mobileportal/promotions/casino/high-core-roar-to-riches-casino-challenge

We don't want that in the URL, so we can change it to a number like 1 or pretty much whatever you want that doesn't highlight the segmentation group.

Aldous & team are currently working on the Roar to Riches tickets, but just a note going forward when starting new tiered promotions. Thanks!

Hey Everyone!

Sorry for the delay on this I was waiting for confirmations but just wanted to now confirm that the 500x500 story sizes will no longer be used on borgata and we will be using the 65x65 size in replace of the 500x500. I know Vivian has been working on this and it seems that the other sizes just weren't fitting correctly? But if you have any questions please reach out to Vivian and she will be able to assist!

noted on this! will the toaster creatives do for the story sizes?

Yes! In the borgata asset packs in the design requests for toaster, it is now "Story-Toaster (65x65)"

For Leaderboard Promotions​

https://betmgm.my.workfront.com/project/666c903200566207b4679527799dbd81/updates Please make sure we are all going forward with 'See Rankings' and linking to /lb/PAT ID for all leaderboard promotions. Some of these have those updates made while others don't and we want to be the same across the board so please update if you haven't already (for this and all future LBs)

For Landing Pages​

Hey all quick thing - 

Going forward, we are going to stay away from using 'REGISTER' or 'SIGN UP NOW' and instead stick with 'SIGN UP' On our end, this will mostly apply to landing pages - brand & acq is going to get us a list of active LPs at some point so we can make those changes (it's not a ton), but going forward when creating new LPs, even if the copy provided says 'REGISTER,' let's replace that CTA with 'SIGN UP.' Eventually all will have that in the request, but for tickets that were already briefed in, we can use 'SIGN UP.' This mostly applies to the Manila team and me

FYI Emma Bulos DonJohn Melendez

In any instance, REGISTER means to Register for the Tournament and not Register for an account especially because sometimes if you Pre-register for headliner Tournaments, you qualify for Prizes, as referred to in How To Participate the CTA should not be changed to 'SIGN UP'

Hello everyone,

Last Thursday, Ruben and I have been working with Sean’s, Casino Lobby, and Gaming Product Teams on preparing m2.mi.betmgm.com and m2.nj.playmgm.com > MobileCasino-v1.0 > LMTCategories > instantCasino > lobbyhome, Featured or featured, and jackpotslots to migrate to simply home and jackpots instead, so that it will be easier for our Teams to make updates, which have been successfully migrated just this afternoon.

Therefore, for both BetMGM MI and NJ, please push newly built web Carousels into home > Teasers, and please replace web Video Banners on homefeatured > GameVideos.

m2.mi.betmgm.com > MobileCasino-v1.0 > LMTCategories > instantCasino >

home: https://cms-us.prod.env.works/sitecore/DirectLink.aspx?fo={0EAB8A3C-E8E4-4B0B-A497-CA6B8E5B9F75}&la=

homefeatured: https://cms-us.prod.env.works/sitecore/DirectLink.aspx?fo={37860477-C0C9-4994-8807-BD774D534B68}&la=

m2.nj.playmgm.com > MobileCasino-v1.0 > LMTCategories > instantCasino >

home: https://cms-us.prod.env.works/sitecore/DirectLink.aspx?fo={3CAADCD9-436B-4BA0-875A-C6C9F370F92E}&la=

homefeatured: https://cms-us.prod.env.works/sitecore/DirectLink.aspx?fo={D7646B3F-E1BA-424A-BAB2-00D428D7CA2F}&la=

To avoid any possible confusion, I have either moved all m2.mi.betmgm.com and m2.nj.playmgm.com > MobileCasino-v1.0 > LMTCategories > instantCasino > lobbyhome, Featured or featured, and jackpotslots into an Archive folder or deleted them.

Please do not hesitate and feel free to let me know if you have any question.

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

Kind regards,

Vivian

Hi all,

Hope all is well. I wanted to forward along this chain as a reminder. We’ve run into this problem in the past and want to make sure everyone is aware that when both Ops & CMS are both needed for a promotion, **CMS should not push anything live/make changes to PAT/EDS without having what we need from Ops. **This problem is most common when there is a change request/extension of a promotion. In the past, we’ve seen the same few issues:

  • Stakeholder does not add Ops in CHR
  • Stakeholder does not alert Ops of CHR nor add it to the In-Progress CHR chat

In this instance, the stakeholder included Ops on the CHR, but did not specifically alert anyone from the Ops team. Mike added a task for them and while that should be enough, we know at this point to over-communicate in situations like this.

Let’s continue to communicate and work together with Ops to make sure these tasks are done correctly. When extending/shorting promotions that require PAT/EDS, please be sure that Ops is aware and works on their tasks before we do. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.

Thank you!

Heads up everyone - we have not fully escaped cross-sell promos. Will chat further on our call Thursday, but FYI you may see tasks to add carousels for:

BTL SOCCER PICK A FOOTBALL

BTL NHL PICK A PUCK

Yes, these say BTL. No, they are not BTL, they are public and should have been assigned to our team but since it's already last minute - CRM CMS team will be handling these builds, but we will be handling carousels on casino sites.

Tagging Everyone so US & Manila teams are aware that Gaming CMS should not be building/testing/scheduling these beyond just carousels. Lmk if you have any questions, thank you
