Jackpot247 Respond to Popularity of Casino-Style Games on Facebook Submitted By: Jackpot 247 Thursday, 2 January 2014 Jackpot247 Respond to Popularity of Casino-Style Games on Facebook Submitted by: Jackpot 247 Thursday, 2 January 2014 Absolute Digital Media Online gambling experts, Jackpot247, have responded to the presence of five online casino games in Facebook’s report of their top 25 games of 2013. Facebook have released a list of their top 25 games of 2013, and five casino-style games have managed to make the list. Gaming on social media platforms such as Facebook has grown exponentially over the years, and casino games are now a popular choice for users of the site. The ‘Games of the Year’ list has been compiled based on a combination of "user ratings, Facebook implementation, growth, and overall quality,” reports Casino Meister (http://www.casinomeister.com/news/december2013/online_casino_news3/FIVE-CASINO-STYLE-GAMES-TOPS-AT-FACEBOOK.php). Many of the games chosen can be played on both internet and mobile platforms, with the rise of mobile gambling games also reflected in the list. It has previously been predicted that the mobile gaming industry (http://www.jackpot247.com/mobile) could be worth around $12 million in 2014, and it is possible that early examples of this growth have contributed to the choice of these five games for the overall list in 2013. Jackpot247, providers of a wide variety of online casino games such as live black jack and other arcade games (http://www.jackpot247.com/games/blackjack), have responded to this report from the social media site. A spokesperson for the company said: “The popularity of these casino-style games on Facebook isn’t a huge surprise, as the rise of online gambling through this and similar platforms has already been noted. With this report reflecting consumer behaviour in 2013, it’s an encouraging sign going into the new year and 2014 will no doubt see a further rise in the number of people enjoying safe, legitimate internet gambling from the comfort of their homes.” Jackpot247 designs, creates and operates live roulette games broadcast on ITV and Sky channel 86, using casino certified equipment. With the best range of online casino games, the firm also provides live black jack online, roulette, poker, arcade games and Jackpot 247 casino slots available to play online and on mobile, with a view to providing an authentic casino experience to the home. The company encourages responsible gambling and only provides games manufactured to the highest standards to ensure customer satisfaction.

  • Press Release Betsson AB (Publ) Betsson Makes Recommended Cash Offer to Acquire UK Operator Netplay TV
    STOCKHOLM FEBRUARY 2ND, 2017 PRESS RELEASE BETSSON AB (PUBL) Press Release Betsson AB (Publ) Betsson makes recommended cash offer to acquire UK operator NetPlay TV Betsson AB and NetPlay TV plc (“NetPlay”) have reached an agreement on the terms of a recommended public cash offer pursuant to which Betsson will acquire all shares of NetPlay, a company listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange. The acquisition will strengthen Betsson’s position in the UK, which is the largest locally regulated gambling market in the world. NetPlay operates three brands, Jackpot247, Supercasino and Vernons, using mainly third party systems for backend and content. “NetPlay operates three brands, each with strong offerings, and we believe that applying Betsson’s experience of operating successful casino brands will add to NetPlay’s earnings and growth. We have a long-term view on NetPlay and will achieve significant cost synergies and operational improvements over time. Betsson’s acquisition strategy includes adding volume to its scalable Techsson platform and increasing the share of locally regulated revenue,” said Ulrik Bengtsson, CEO and President of Betsson AB. The offer is to be implemented by means of a court approved scheme of arrangement which will be regulated by the UK Companies Act and the UK Takeover Code. The cash offer is GBP 0.09 per share, corresponding to a total consideration of GBP 26.4 million (on a fully diluted basis). The offer is subject to, amongst other things, the approval of NetPlay shareholders and also the High Court of Justice in the UK and is expected to be closed in April 2017.
