Unibet Bets on Bingo Using Software from Parlay Entertainment
Thursday August 17, 2006
Parlay Entertainment Inc., the world's leading supplier of Internet bingo solutions, is pleased to announce that Unibet has added Parlay-powered bingo to its offering of online games. Unibet is one of the largest privately owned gambling operators in the European market with more than 1.3 million customers in over 100 countries. Unibet provides services in 20 languages and has initially launched Unibet Bingo in Swedish, with other languages to follow. Registered users can access the game through the Unibet gaming portal at www.unibet.com.
Founded in 1997, Unibet Group Plc offers a comprehensive range of online gambling products including sports betting, live betting, casino, poker, lotteries and soft games. The addition of online bingo is part of Unibet's long-term strategy to broaden its product range beyond sports betting.
Unibet Bingo uses Parlay's new Swedish Variant Bingo software, featuring the five-part game popular in bingo halls throughout Sweden.
The addition of Unibet strengthens Parlay's multi-national customer base. More brand name companies use Parlay's leading technology than any other software company in the Internet bingo industry.
"We're pleased to launch Unibet Bingo which will further broaden our 'moneytainment' offer. Bingo gives us the opportunity to reach out to new demographics and broaden our customer base as well as the opportunity to cross-promote bingo with our existing suite of products," said Petter Nylander, CEO Unibet.
"Online bingo continues to expand into countries that have a strong tradition of land-based bingo," said Andrew Branscombe, Vice President of Sales for Parlay Entertainment. "With its large, international player base, Unibet is an ideal partner to bring this popular form of entertainment to new markets. Moving forward, Unibet will benefit from Parlay's multilingual capabilities as it deploys its bingo offering in other countries."
