Online bingo has long played second fiddle to online poker as the game of choice for Internet gamblers. However times they are a changing and bingo has fast established itself as the game of choice in the UK. In excess of 3 million players per annum are drawn to online bingo and that number is set to rise further.

No longer an underdog
The UK boasts a healthy and growing bingo-playing sector, but the 300 site-owning operators are looking to expand their markets by aggressively pursuing territory outside the UK. The favored destination is Spain.

What does Spain has to offer?
The Spanish love bingo and of course they have the lottery - a favored pastime of many. A particular online bingo site - Feria Bingo - is excited about the Spanish venture. Their Marketing Manager, Mercedes Osorio, is well pleased with the expansion into Spanish domain. If bingo can get to a point where it is able to compete with poker - among internet users - it will generate massive income and have tremendous appeal.

Online bingo
The online version of bingo is much more dynamic than the bingo of old. Exciting online user-interfaces, healthy jackpots and real-time interactive plays from the comforts of home are more appealing. People are increasingly drawn to gambling from home than venturing out to halls and related venues for such activity. For now the bingo market looks set to take off in an unprecedented fashion and operators in the UK and beyond are excited at the prospects.
