EUBINGO

by Hollie Sanders

It is news to me that due to the rising demand for online bingo operations in Europe, there has actually been a European Bingo Association formed. I am fully aware of the British Bingo Association, who is the trade association of the licenced bingo industry in the UK but on looking at our local UK site, there isn’t really much going on, other than them letting us know the date for the next Association meeting for members.

The site for EUBINGO however is a completely different kettle of fish and interestingly enough, the UK Bingo Association is a member of EUBINGO, as is both Spain, Italy and Northern Ireland. The Federation of European Bingo Associations was created with the purpose of representing the professional and social interests of its members and acts as a platform to exchange information and cover concerns of members in the bingo sector.

EUBINGO does try to stay abreast of any policy developments in the EU that may have or might affect its member countries and they have a number of highly developed and well researched policies in place to keep members informed.

I think that any present or potential UK bingo operator would be wise to give the site the once over, there could be valuable information available there to assist with any problems being experienced.
