Andrew Steddy, Head of Bingo Networks, said "We were delighted to deliver another unique market leading promotion for our licensees. Yet again, Playtech's ability to share liquidity across our entire network allowed us to offer self-funding promotions and prizes that are unparalleled in the bingo market. That a player on the network has won a single jackpot of over £1.3m in addition to the £2.5m slots promotion clearly demonstrates once more that Playtech is at the forefront of delivering value through networked gaming solutions".
