Platinum Play Bingo makes way for Giggle Bingo

Further to our last email communication Platinum Play Bingo will be redirecting all traffic to the new brand “Giggle Bingo” as of today.

Giggle BingoAll tagged traffic sent to Platinum Play Bingo is now recorded and redirected to the new Giggle Bingo site, so Affiliates will still be credited for all players sent to either Platinum Play Bingo or Giggle Bingo.

Why the change?

Giggle Bingo’s thriving, secure bingo community is already making big waves in the bingo world.

Giggle Bingo has sky-rocketed in popularity since its successful launch on 14 September 2009 and has completely over-shadowed Platinum Play Bingo. The decision was therefore made to focus all our affiliate efforts on Giggle Bingo which we believe from early indicators will be a winning Bingo site for our partners.

As before, Giggle Bingo features all the same bingo rooms you would find on Platinum Play Bingo, including 90 Ball and 75 Ball Bingo PLUS the one of a kind Bingo Ball for Life promotion.

How does this effect me?

Affiliates who are still pushing Platinum Play Bingo should rather focus on Giggle Bingo as the brand response and the higher conversion rates is providing much higher revenues for any given amount of exposure given.

There are a range of banner options available for Giggle Bingo on the affiliate system.

Please contact your relationship manager if you need any assistance.

What’s news on Giggle Bingo?

Giggle Bingo recently launched a UK (http://www.gigglebingo.co.uk) and a Canadian (http://www.gigglebingo.ca) site to cater for the specific needs of these markets.

The Giggle Bingo site also recently received second place in the coveted WhichBingo.co.uk New Site of the Year award category.

Don’t miss the bingo craze – Giggle Bingo is riding high into 2010.

Customisable Casino .exe’s For Affiliates

Greetings webmasters! I trust you all fared well in the festive season :-)

Somewhere in all the mad winter rush we added a nice new feature to our casinos download process. Partners are now able to customise the name of the casino executable directly from their websites.

For the most part this does not effect any the normal traffic into our main brand sites, however for those guys and gals that like to link directly to our downloads and want a little more customisation.

Here’s how you do it!

The standard URL variables for a direct download

http://www.7sultans.eu/btag-yourtag/download.casino

When the download launches, it looks something like this.

7sultans-download

This directly launches the download wraps the banner tag “btag-yourtag” into the software.

Visually : The standard executable for 7Sultans reads “7Sultans.exe” to the user.

The custom variable coder

An additional variable can now be added to the direct download that now re-names the exe while wrapping the partner tag on the fly.
The variable is called ‘filedisplayname’ and you can use any name to rename any EXE.

Here’s an example where we used “MySlotsSite” as the customised variable.

http://www.7sultans.eu/btag-yourtag/download.casino?filedisplayname=MySlotsSite.

Custom Download

Custom executable usage on your site!

How can a custom named .exe help me?
There are a number of circumstances where a custom named executable is handy to have, other times it’s a nice to have option for perfectionists.

Possibilities are endless, boundless, great!

US players can only play the waiting game

Congressman Barney Frank

It seems that online casino operators hoping for a quick return to the US market will need to wait a little longer – Rep. Barney Frank, the chief proponent of legislation to legalize and regulate online gambling, is also the head of the US House Financial Services Committee. It seems that in the current climate of global economic woe his attention is focused on economic matters and the debate around online gambling legislation is set to resume only in September 2009. This is a blow for those online casino operators who were hoping for resolution.

Rep. Frank’s support for his online gambling legislation has grown recently, from both sides of the political spectrum. Lawmakers seem to be more understanding of the public’s desire to have the right to gamble online.

As for the outcome of the legislative process, only time will tell.
