St. Minver Launch 90-Ball Bingo on Yahoo! UK
June 3, 2005
St. Minver, the leading turn-key supplier of online gaming solutions,
announced today the launch of Yahoo! Bingo. Yahoo! is the first
premier U.K. and European brand to offer their own ‘White
label’ 90-ball Bingo.
The Yahoo! relationship represents the first of a number of partners
to launch what St. Minver believes will be one of the UK’s
largest Bingo networks. Operating on the St. Minver platform, all
participating partners are able to benefit from St. Minver’s
aggregated model. According to research there are now over 5 million
online bingo players with an estimated market size of £100
million worldwide.
Incorporating software from leading bingo developer, Parlay Entertainment,
the St. Minver network has enabled many high profile customers to
offer online bingo to their customers. In addition to Yahoo!, St.
Minver has current plans to launch with numerous other leading brands
including land-based Bingo market leader Gala Group, Lastminute.com
and Virgin Games.
David Kicks, Business Development Director for St. Minver, commented,“We
are offering our partners their own branded bingo destination, which
we operate and support from our fully licensed and regulated facilities
in Gibraltar. Our partners benefit from St.Minver’s ability
to offer substantial pooled prizes, progressive jackpots and massive
liquidity.”
“St. Minver impressed us with the simple functionality
and strong community elements, which fit well with our overall games
strategy” said Abigail McLachlan, Senior Business Development
Manager, Yahoo! UK and Ireland.
