Hosted live by Rogowsky along with a variety of other celebrities, Jackpocket Live will give users chances to win real money every single day. As executive producer, Rogowsky will lend his expertise and directional guidance honed from entertaining millions of HQ Trivia users, as well as from his years in the industry to Jackpocket Live’s creative and production process.
“Get ready for the greatest thing to hit your phone since, well, Jackpocket!” said Scott Rogowsky. “I’m so excited to be part of Jackpocket’s expansion into live streaming content and for folks to try the new game when it hits the app this year. We’re gonna have some fun, win some cash, and feel good doing it.”

Production for Jackpocket Live will be based out of the company’s second headquarters in Santa Barbara.
Since launching in 2013, Jackpocket is now available for lottery play via mobile app and desktop in 16 states. Users have won nearly $300 million in lottery prizes to date, with over 1 million winners last year alone, and 29 winners of prizes worth $1 million or more.
