12/2/09 - Welsh land bingo hall operator Castle Leisure has extended the Castle Bingo.co.uk bingo licence and membership of the International Bingo Network for a further three years in an agreement signed this week with network owner GTech G2.
The agreement includes the provision of side games by G2 for the site and a new instant win channel, Play Castle Games.co.uk which launched in May 2009. Play Castle Games.co.uk has an instant-play gaming suite that includes over 60 instant-play games such as X-factor, Cluedo, Cleopatra, Top Trumps Celebs and Monte Carlo Billions.
The latest G2 software release includes a range of online bingo variants, including the new 80 Ball Speed Bingo, as well as a free play option. It provides for more personalisation and its multi currency functionality and linked network games enable liquidity across seven European markets, resulting in large pooled jackpots.
"We have worked with Castle Leisure for over 3 years now and have built an excellent relationship together," said Leigh Nissim, Commercial Director at GTech G2. "The decision to extend their bingo contract with us and the addition of the instant win site are great choices as they seek to offer more entertainment to their visitors."
The suite of instant win side games includes arcade games, scratch cards, table games, progressive jackpots and branded content aimed at casual gamers. GTech G2 offers a fully outsourced, white label solution for brands and gaming companies wishing to extend life time customer values whilst offering entertaining content.
Castle Bingo first launched in 2007 with software by St Minver, now a GTech G2 subsidiary.
