Pointstreak, which runs electronic raffles at sports facilities, has formed a partnership with point-of-sale vendor Appetize to sell 50/50 tickets through mobile devices.

Toronto-based Pointstreak has deals with more than 250 teams and venues in North America, including nine NFL clubs. Pointstreak sells raffle tickets on behalf of its clients at sports events, and the winning ticket holder in the crowd splits the money equally with a charity.

Los Angeles-based Appetize supplies mobile payment systems to Madison Square Garden, Lincoln Financial Field and Wells Fargo Center, among its 54 sports and entertainment properties.
