PALM BEACH, Florida, April 25, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's world how many people still have a landline phone at home? Probably not many. How many people still carry a portable CD unit or a digital music device? Again probably not many. And finally how many even people still even carry a laptop to search the internet with them at all times? Ditto, not many. Everything that previously required separate devices is now embedded in that single smartphone that has become ubiquitous, and now, things that require one's actual presence, like gaming or gambling, can be done via that same device. Mobility is everything and mobile gaming apps are generating some eye-popping revenues. A recent article (discussing a market research report) projected that: "The global gambling market is expected to reach revenues of over $525 Billion by 2023, growing at a CAGR of approximately 4% during 2017-2023."  The article continued: "The increasing per capita income, high adoption, growing interest, and rising number of dual-income households will augment the transformation of the global market. The demand for online games and increasing penetration of mobile applications across the US, the UK, Italy, and China & SAR region will help attract new players in this market over the next few years. Active tech and gaming stocks in news today include:  Tapinator, Inc. (OTC: TAPM), Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP), Scientific Games Corporation (NASDAQ: SGMS), Zynga Inc. (NASDAQ: ZNGA), Phunware Inc. (NASDAQ: PHUN).

The global gambling market is driven by increasing penetration of online gaming and betting across the North American and European region. The increase in per capita income, high adoption, growing interest, and growth of dual-income households are some of the factors augmenting the growth of the global market.  The exponential popularity and rising number of live casinos will help in the development of the global gambling market during the forecast period by ResearchandMarkets.com.

Tapinator, Inc. (OTCQB: TAPM) BREAKING NEWS – Tapinator, a developer and publisher of category leading apps for mobile platforms, today announced that it has launched a major update to Video Poker Classic, the top video poker game on mobile.  Video Poker Classic is the most popular video poker game on iOS and is a leading video poker property on both Google Play and the Amazon Appstore. On iOS, the title maintains over 25,000 reviews with an average score of 4.7 out of 5.0. One of the reasons for the title's success is its consistency with a real-world casino experience.

To quantify the size of the video poker market, we can look to certain gaming jurisdictions, such as Louisiana and Illinois, that have published data specifically on video poker revenue. In 2013, Louisiana's adjusted gross video poker revenue was over $600 million and represented 20 percent of the state's net daily gaming revenue. In Illinois in 2013, video poker revenue was about $300 million relative to about $1.5 billion in adjusted gross casino revenue. In 2018, the revenue for the social casino market reached $5.2 billion, according to Eliers & Krejcik. Based on the size of the video poker market as a percentage of the real-money gaming market, we believe there to be significant growth potential for video poker within the social casino segment. Video Poker Classic is currently ranked approximately in the Top 150 in Downloads and Top 100 in Grossing within the Casino category on iOS.

Our new 2.0 version brings multi-hand capability, a popular casino feature, to the game's core single-hand gameplay. More specifically, we have introduced Triple Play, Five Play, and Ten Play for all of our 39 game types. With this new version, Video Poker Classic  has the richest offering of any video poker title on mobile devices, in terms of game types, gameplay formats (Single Hand, Triple Play, Five play, Ten play) and overall functionality.  "We are excited that, with this major update, we have yet again raised the bar for the video poker category on mobile devices. We are looking forward to future updates later this year that will continue to refine and optimize our category-leading product," said Tapinator CEO, Ilya Nikolayev.   Read this and more news for TAPM at:   https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-tapm
