The multiyear partnership allows BetMGM to be the presenting sponsor of Lions Bingo and Lions Perks, in-stadium promotions, teams broadcasting programming, signage, and digital marketing asset.

We are committed to raising the bar in delivering unique and entertaining experiences.”

Lions Peaks began at the start of the 2018 season where guests were encouraged to scan their Lions Perks Card for every food/beverage purchase or merchandise at Ford Field and will now be presented by BetMGM.

Because of the deal with BetMGM, the BetMGM Sports Lounge at MGM Grand Detroit Casino will be providing rewards and special offers exclusively for Lion Perks users.

Both Lions Bingo and Lions Perks are available on the Lions mobile app which can be downloaded on all iOS and Android smartphones.
