Setting the tone for an exciting promotion that started on
October 29th, the jackpot
was won on November 1st on
Playtech bingo's hugely popular Bouncy Balls slot with Playtech
licensee Mecca Bingo. At the time of the win, Bouncy Balls
had the biggest jackpot on the network.
Through December 10th, the network
slots promotion will give away over £1m in prize money with
Playtech's bingo licensees distributing prizes from £10 to £50,000
through 11 selected slot games with progressive jackpots.
During this six week period, players can qualify for prize
draws simply by playing on the promoted slot and with two prize
draws a week, there are plenty of chances to win. The network
is guaranteeing giving away over 35,000 individual prizes.
Playtech's bingo network is the world's largest online bingo
network with over 25 licensees operating major bingo brands such as
Mecca Bingo, William Hill Bingo, Ladbrokes Bingo, Sky Bingo, Paddy
Power Bingo, Maria Bingo, bet365 Bingo and many more.
Andrew Steddy, Head of Bingo
Networks, said "Following the phenomenal success of the network
slots promotion we ran earlier this year, it was only a matter of
time before we repeated it. Given the unique structure of our
network, we're able to comfortably deliver self funding promotions
like this with no additional costs for our licensees. To not only
give away £1m in prizes, but to create yet another millionaire,
just as we did in June, proves once again that Playtech's
Virtuefusion platform is the place to play."
