Parlay and Chartwell Technology Launch New Online Bingo Product

3rd June, 2008

Parlay Entertainment Inc and Chartwell Technology Inc have announced a new collaboration, bringing together Parlay’s front-end online bingo softare, and Chartwell’s back-end administration system. The two organisations also have a portfolio of slot machine and other similar games in their portfolio. The new European-facing network is to be managed by Chartwell and based in Malta.

Parlay already have a big number of the top online brands using their bingo solutions, including Yahoo!, Paddy Power and Virgin. Throughout the world, more players are playing on Parlay’s online bingo software than any other existing supplier or operator. President and CEO of the group, Scott White, said of the move: “This is a huge win for licensees and bingo players alike. By combining the strengths of Parlay’s industry-leading bingo games with Chartwell’s advanced administration system and network operations expertise, we’re creating a very compelling bingo network solution. Player excitement will grow exponentially as bingo sites pool their liquidity to create bigger games, huge jackpots and lively communities.”

Chartwell focus on developing gaming applications for the internet and remote access devices, without participating in the online gaming business of the clients it serves. Darold H. Parken, Presendent and CEO of Chartwell commented: “The respective strengths of Chartwell and Parlay are a perfect fit, so it’s natural for us to work together to build a new European bingo network. Online bingo continues to reach new heights in the UK and Europe, and we’re excited to become serious players in the bingo business under our relationship with Parlay and the Bingo Nexus brand.”

Parlay will be sponsoring the Online Bingo Summit in London from 17-18th June, showcasing the new software, named Parlay 5, and the new Bingo Nexus brand.
