Launch of the Pinnacle Cup sees Pinnacle Solution deliver exclusive esports betting content to operator partners
The Pinnacle Cup, a ground-breaking esports event featuring top tier CS:GO teams and a prize pool totaling $100,000, kicks off on 3rd March 2021, with Pinnacle Solution partners set to benefit from an extensive array of exclusive betting content from the month long event.
Esports data giant GRID will build on its existing partnership with Pinnacle, providing live data on every match throughout the event, to be utilised by traders, bettors and fans alike. Online payment provider Trustly is also involved as an ancillary sponsor, while Relog Media will use its expertise in esports production to showcase the high-level competition in its full glory.
The tournament, which will be held online and streamed globally via Twitch, will see some of Europe’s best CS:GO (Counterstrike: Global Offensive) teams battle it out across an initial qualifier stage, with the four winners progressing to a Swiss-format group stage with 12 invited teams, including GODSent and HAVU.
Those who progress will find themselves in a knockout with a further four invited teams, including Fun Plus Phoenix, before the final two compete for the grand prize of $100,000 which will be distributed between the winners and runners up on an 80/20 split.
Pinnacle Solution’s operator partners will be able to leverage exclusive betting content from the Pinnacle Cup, with numerous outright markets, more live selections, as well as a selection of bespoke prop bets across every match up, all underpinned by a market-leading trading team proven to drive esports revenue and engage new customers.
