Online bingo in Spain

15th December, 2008

When it comes to deciding which bingo site to register with, players in the UK are spoilt for choice. The UK online bingo market is fully delevloped if not already saturated which is why some bingo operators are searching else where- Spain.

Why Spain?

  • More and more Spaniards have access to the internet now
  • There is an increasing tendency for Spanish people to make transactions online
  • In Spain the lottery is hugely popular and has a similar demographic to that of bingo

Cultural Differences?

  • Interestingly, Spain differs to the rest of Europe in that in most European countries, it is middle aged women who enjoy playing bingo. In Spain, experts say that men are more likely to play bingo than women, with a split of 80% men, 20% women playing. This has been attributed to socio-cultural differences, or rather the infamous stereotype of Spanish men being 'macho' and still controlling the purse strings.

Time will tell how Spain takes to online bingo- so far for the main operators such as Winzingo, Juega Bingo Ya, Bingo Exclusivo, Botemania and Feria Bingo the results have been promising.
