BoltBetz brings Mike Tyson onboard for cashless gaming rollout in Nevada

Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has become a strategic investor and promotional partner of BoltBetz, joining the company as it prepares to launch its cashless gaming technology at Terrible’s casino locations across Nevada.

Tyson’s role will include supporting the rollout with promotional campaigns, digital media initiatives, and personal appearances. In addition to serving as a promotional partner, he has also invested in the company.

"I've always been drawn to people and ideas that simplify the way we experience things, and that's exactly what I see with BoltBetz," Tyson said. "This technology is setting a new standard for how people engage with casinos, and I'm proud to be part of the journey — not just as a partner, but as an investor as well."

Terrible’s, a Nevada-based casino operator, will be the first to introduce the technology. The company has more than 300 locations and 2,700 gaming machines across the state and has operated for over six decades. The initial rollout of the platform at select properties is scheduled for early next year.

BoltBetz has developed a proprietary cashless system that allows players to digitally load funds directly to slot machines without cash. The platform is designed to streamline payments, enhance security, and modernize transactions on the casino floor.

"Having Mike Tyson join us is a monumental moment for BoltBetz," said Space Jones, Co-Founder and Director of Product & Design at BoltBetz. "Mike's global presence and reputation for boldness align perfectly with our mission to disrupt and modernize the casino floor.”

Tyson, a former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion, remains one of the most widely recognized athletes globally. Beyond boxing, he is active as an entrepreneur, entertainer, and philanthropist with a fan base spanning multiple generations.

“His involvement as both an investor and promotional partner validates the strength of our technology and accelerates our growth strategy. We are also grateful to Prophecy Onasis, owner of Radiant Technologies, for his role in facilitating this groundbreaking partnership," Jones added.

BoltBetz describes itself as a financial technology company focused on delivering cashless solutions for casinos. Its platform is designed to provide players with a digital option for slot machine transactions while offering operators greater efficiency in managing funds and security.
