“Mario Lopez is the ultimate embodiment of the Hard Rock spirit - charismatic, energetic, and deeply connected to entertainment and culture,” said Daniel Kajouie, managing director of Hard Rock Games. “His passion for the Hard Rock brand and natural ability to engage audiences make him the perfect partner for Jackpot Planet and our ‘Spin Like a Star’ campaign.

Racking up rewards
Hard Rock Games develops and operates Hard Rock Digital’s free-to-play online and mobile gaming experiences.
The company’s catalog includes puzzles, table games, and slot machines.
Rewards unlocked on the social casino platform are integrated into Unity by Hard Rock, a global loyalty program that ensures customers can receive and utilize Tier Credits at hotels, casinos, restaurants, stores, and more locations worldwide.
Every $1 spent on virtual items in select Hard Rock Games will result in a customer receiving one Tier Credit. The more credits a customer accrues, the higher they will ascend in the Unity program’s tier-based system.
Points can be used to upgrade room stays at hotels, win concert tickets, or play more games online.
Hard Rock Games’ reach
Hard Rock Digital said in the announcement it is the “exclusive Hard Rock International vehicle” for interactive gaming and sports betting and the primary supporter of Florida sports betting offered through a partnership with the Seminole Tribe.
Hard Rock Games is available in more than 100 countries. American customers must be at least 21 to participate.
