Online Bingo News Revelations
There has been lots of online bingo action and revelations going on behind the scenes lately! Tombola Bingo have decided to sponsor Sunderland FC, along with casting new players from their site to star in new Emmerdale TV bumpers. These are due to hit our TV screens later on in the year, with filming taking place at the end of the month.
Cashcade the name behind Foxy Bingo renewed their contract with Dragonfish the B2B division of 888.com and this is not the only deal B2B have struck over the past week. Prime Gaming who first established themselves on the net in 2003 have also been in talks with Dragonfish and this ended in them signing a deal this week for B2B to provide them with a comprehensive bingo solution for two brand new (standalone) online bingo sites.
In the five years since prime gaming have been operating they have released a number of different gaming brands all with the (prime) logo attached and these have included casino, sratchcards, backgammon and poker. So it looks like online bingo is going to be the next big thing from the prime gaming group, but just how they are going to fair in this market remains to be seen.
Prime Gaming recently launched an online bingo site on the net called (bingo yard). But this was a skin on the Dragonfish bingo network and the two new sites planned are due to be standalone. This was good to see because we could well do without more bingo sites launching on this particular network, as it is pretty much already flooded as it is.
A networked online bingo site brings players the same online bingo deals, offers, game play, promotions, etc. So other than them being called a different name and having their owned designed homepage, they offer nothing new……….quite annoying really!
Networked online bingo sites are all well and good in their own right, but as I have always said – Give me a standalone bingo site to play at any day of the week.
And last but by no means least, Mecca Bingo recently signed a deal which gave them the rights to (Britain’s got Talent) branding, so a new online bingo room is now planned to open at their site in the not so distant future.
