Apple is now allowing European white-listed operators to promote real gambling Apps in the App Store. 32Red reports that the process is not easy of achievement but is worthwhile in business terms.
A spokesman advised this week that 32 Red's new MGS Tomb Raider app is currently going through Apple's approval process, and if successful could be live in the next few weeks.
Evidence of growing mobile usage comes from the information portal Casinomeister.com, which reports that over 100 visitors to the site a day are using mobiles.
