Bingo Networks and Software Companies
So you play bingo online. But how much do you really know about the companies behind the games? Well, here at UK Bingo Games, we'd like to shed some light on what goes on in the business.
Networks
When you log on to your favourite bingo site to play and chat, you may not realise, but you are most probably playing on a big network with players from tens or even hundreds of other sites from the UK. There are only 2 or 3 major bingo software suppliers in the UK, and maybe 10 major networks. Most of the sites you play on will be a part of one of these networks.
For example, Getminted Bingo is part of a much larger network of sites run on software provided by London based gaming company, Aquagaming. Play at Getminted Bingo and you will be mixing with players from Bingo Ballroom, Bingolicious, Kiss My Bingo, UK Bingo.net and many more. This is great for bingo operators and the players alike - it builds big networks with busy rooms very quickly, meaning bigger jackpots, and more friends to chat to!
The other major player in the UK is Parlay, who provide the bingo software for one of the UKs biggest bingo operators, Bingos UK, as well as Bingomania. Parlay are the 90 ball bingo experts, and their network is far reaching, bringing in players from Virgin Bingo and Bingo Boogie as well.
As a bingo customer it helps to be aware of the way the business is run. Make sure you shop around for your site of choice, because whilst many are operating on the same networks, the promotions they offer their customers are varied. Read our reviews section for more details.
