Rhys Owen, Head of Bingo at Playtech, commented: "As our mobile Bingo is growing exponentially, it has become a key focus in our product development this year. With the launch of the HTML5 solution along with Native iOS and Android operating systems, we have begun rolling out the product to our customer base.  Using an HTML5 template we are able to quickly plug in existing assets from our popular catalogue of games, bringing us much closer to completing a consistent offering between our web and mobile solutions. If you want mobile Bingo, Playtech's Virtue Fusion is the best provider in the market."

In addition to Mobile Bingo, Playtech has recently launched a fully regulated product offering in Spain. This marks another step in expanding the Bingo offering into newly regulated territories, taking the success of the dot com network model into new markets. The Spanish offering is the 3rd network Virtue Fusion manages in addition to the dot com network and the Italian Bingo network.
