SCCG Management and Cliquepicks Announce Strategic Business Development Partnership for North America

SCCG Management CEO and Founder, Stephen Crystal announced a partnership with the competitive social media platform, CliquePicks as a strategic equity owner and investor, to provide investment, business development, and advisory services to grow the company within the North American sports wagering markets.

Stephen Crystal said of the partnership, “As sports betting expands across North America, we look for systems and technologies that help bettors express their interest in sports betting as part of their lifestyle, beyond the moments around a particular wager. CliquePicks is part of the fandom of sports wagering and the more encompassing sports betting lifestyle.”

Nick Giangreco, Founder and CEO Of CliquePicks said: “CliquePicks is thrilled to be partnering with SCCG. Their industry-leading resources and strategic advice will play a pivotal role in enhancing our current business model and marketing approach as we build toward our upcoming active launch. SCCG’s expertise will open doors to potentially vast opportunities for CliquePicks across platforms and partnerships. Teaming up with SCCG, CliquePicks will unite the interactive rivalry of fantasy leagues with the thrill of sports wagering, giving our users the power to make every game a rivalry!”

CliquePicks is a competitive social media platform created to unite the interactive rivalry of fantasy leagues with the thrill of sports wagering. Its users only wager against their friends — not a faceless online sportsbook.

Through the CliquePicks platform, Clique members create wagers in real-time, allowing members to Ride (take the same bet) or Fade (take the opposing position) with other members of your Clique, on the web, or through an Android or iOS app.

In the CliquePicks Locker Room, CliquePicks users chat, joke, and place wagers with one another. CliquePicks also offers various customization options to satisfy any Clique’s preferences, such as buy-in, Clique size, and pay out.

CliquePicks runs on credits, with a similar business model to fantasy sports leagues. Money is handled internally within each clique so none of the money being paid-in or paid-out goes through the CliquePicks website. Further reducing risk, participants set limits to their weekly risk, but still have a max of 500 credits to wager throughout the week.

About CliquePicks

CliquePicks is the elite alternative to sports wagering, where friendly competition meets social media. Statistically speaking, “The House Always Wins.” Clique Picks evens the playing field by creating a competitive platform in which users compete only against each other and there is no “House”. We bring fans together to experience sporting events in the most innovative concept since fantasy sports. At Clique Picks we offer a user experience differentiated from the conventional online sports book with an interactive, socially driven platform. More importantly, we give our users the power to Make Every Game A Rivalry.

Symplify and Jada Gaming Sign Strategic Partnership with SCCG to Spearhead North American Expansion

Symplify, a Scandinavian SaaS CRM and CRO supplier to iGaming, have signed a strategic partnership with SCCG Management to spearhead its North America expansion as part of the launch of its latest acquisition Jada Gaming.

The joint deal will see SCCG Management provide and execute business strategies designed to open new distribution networks through licensed and qualified channels. Another element, that Symplify and its subsidiaries will greatly benefit from, is advisory support on securing US state licences and authorisations.

“SCCG is the perfect partner for us to drive further growth in the hugely exciting regulated markets across North America. We’re excited about the opportunity to build on our initial success here and SCCG’s vast experience will play a major role in the next growth stage,” says Symplify’s Group CEO Robert Kimber.

With customers such as William Hill, LeoVegas, Betsson, Playstar and Hard Rock, Symplify has built its reputation on continuously developing bespoke features and innovative solutions, enabling CRM and CRO teams to remain best in class.

As part of an expansion strategy, Symplify further enhanced its 360 degrees offering in late 2021 by acquiring AI software Jada Gaming. “There was one part missing in our offering and that was Jada,” says Robert Kimber, Group CEO of Symplify.

With the complete suite of Symplify, customers can now optimise conversions on their websites and apps, harvest visitors into loyal players, create real-time advanced channel orchestration and ultimately, through Jada, utilise the full potential of AI and ML with churn prediction, hyper-personalisation and AI-powered segmentation.

“North America is still a relatively nascent market that offers huge potential and we cannot wait to showcase the capabilities of AI to a new and growing audience,” Alberto Alfieri, Jada Gaming Co-Founder continues.

“AI is playing an ever-increasingly influential role in successful operations and Jada’s capabilities will augment Symplify’s already strong offering. Our mission is providing a 360 degrees service for our partners, across multiple sectors, and I’m excited to add another vital layer to our solution and be working alongside Symplify as we continue to grow the business,” says SCCG Management CEO and Founder, Stephen Crystal.

SCCG and Northwoods League Announce Partnership to Promote Organized Baseball within the Casino Gaming Industry

SCCG Management Founder and CEO, Stephen Crystal announced today that it has partnered with the Northwoods League to promote its organized baseball organization within the casino gaming industry.

The new baseball league, the Northwoods League, was born in 1994, beginning with affiliates in Kenosha, Wausau and Manitowoc, Wisconsin; Dubuque, Iowa and Rochester, Minnesota. This League was made up of “All-Star” teams of college players who competed in a 56-game schedule between June and August. At the end of the first season, approximately 70,000 fans attended Northwoods League games and the Rochester Honkers had claimed the first League title with a 31-15 overall record.

Twenty-six years later, in 2020, the Northwoods League drew more fans than any baseball League, at any level, in North America. This incomprehensible fact summed up the sports scene in a year the American public was ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic. Innovatively leading the sports industry, the Northwoods League managed Federal, State and Local health regulations to play 498 games by 22 teams in six States and 15 Upper Midwest cities, drawing 214,584 fans.

Crystal said of the announcement, “As a firm, we are committed to the promotion of a broader slate of sports entertainment choices within the casino gaming industry. Bringing attention to these highly engaging sports presents a more comprehensive picture of sports in the US. They represent broader content propositions to the gaming industry as sports wagering opportunities, expanding available markets for bettors.”

“As we venture further into this space we were looking for a partner that could help us navigate the complex and ever-changing gaming world,” said Matt Bomberg, Northwoods League Great Lakes Division President. “It became evident very quickly that Stephen and his impressive team at SCCG were the correct group for us.”

About The Northwoods League

The Northwoods League is the proven leader in the development of elite college baseball players. Having completed its’ 28th season, the Northwoods League is the largest organized baseball league in the world with 22 teams, drawing significantly more fans, in a friendly ballpark experience, than any league of its kind. A valuable training ground for coaches, umpires and front office staff, over 265 Northwoods League players have advanced to Major League Baseball, including three-time All-Star and 2016 Roberto Clemente Award winner Curtis Granderson, three-time Cy Young Award winner and World Series Champion Max Scherzer (LAD), two-time World Series Champions Ben Zobrist and Brandon Crawford (SFG) and World Series Champion Chris Sale (BOS). As well as 2019 Rookie of the Year and 2019/2021 Home Run Derby Champion Pete Alonso (NYM) and 2021 All-Star, MLB Gold Glove finalist and 2019 Second Team All-MLB shortstop Marcus Semien (TOR). All league games are viewable live via the Northwoods League website at watchnwl.com.
