“I can’t imagine a better way to start 2020 than a VIP trip to Las Vegas,” said winner, Leslie. “To enter the MegaDraw, I simply had to use the MuchBetter app for some of my day to day spending and iGaming activities. I found it to be one of the easiest and most quickest payment apps I’ve ever used, so I plan to use it for the foreseeable future too.”
“We have always made it our mission to create the most rewarding payments experience possible for our users,” said Paul Gent, MuchBetter CMO. “I think that the MegaDraw prize is probably our most powerful demonstration of this mission to date and it’s great to crown our first winner today from our ever-growing list of active users, which now stands at more than 500,000. We hope to take the momentum from a wildly successful 2019 into 2020 and will be launching a new MegaDraw campaign shortly.”
