Beyond Recreational for Online Casino
Party Gaming announced just last week that the online casino gambling group was
moving into the spread betting industry. As the week progressed the details of
the new spread betting site have surfaced, and the new partnership with City
Index looks like it will be a profitable venture for both of the companies.
Party Gaming is a top name in the UK and European online casino gambling
industry, and with diversified interests in internet poker, betting, and now
spread betting, the company is truly looking to fully expand into all of the
profitable sectors of internet gambling industry.
The new exclusive partnership with City Index will see the company with access
to international financial markets and a share of the global spread betting
industry. The new site follows the look and idea of all of the company’s other
online casino gambling sites – PartyMarkets.com is in development and will
launch soon. The recreational online betting industry is already booming all
over the world, but particularly in the UK. With a successful share of the
recreational betting market, the online casino gambling group chose the
financial betting industry as a lucrative sector for expansion.
With few international companies in the mix right now and special incentives for
UK bettors who bet through Party Gaming’s new site, industry analysts predict
that this latest venture will prove lucrative. A statement from Party Gaming
concerning the new spread betting site notes, "This agreement with City Index
represents a bridge between e-gaming and investors. It acts as a step towards
convergence.” Internationally, it seems that companies are looking toward
convergence – this is certainly prominent with internet gaming companies who are
constantly expanding into new sectors of the industry through acquisitions and
new partnerships. |
