Why Is Online Bingo So Successful?
Saturday 23rd August 2008
The last decade has seen major changes in the gaming industry and none more so than the bingo sector. The UK was once the centre of the bingo industry with bingo halls a centre piece of community life and a place where friends would meet up and have a flutter. But the new Gambling Act and smoking ban changed all of that!
The Gambling Act brought in a number of changes for the better but it did increase substantially the cost base of the traditional bingo halls in the UK forcing many of them to downsize their operations. Then the smoking ban was introduced and literally overnight the bingo industry in the UK suffered a major breakdown. So what next for brand names such as Mecca Bingo?
The next move for the leaders of the sector was to go online and while many were sceptical it has proved to be more successful than many even dreamt of. The UK is now home to 243 registered bingo sites which are currently servicing in excess of half a million bingo players across the country.
Online bingo has become massive business in the UK and is set to get bigger!
