In which country is the bingo network growing at a rate of 30% per month. It’s Spain! Yes the country that gave us salsa and Latino music is all set to play Bingo.

A number of online bingo sites have been launched in Spain and the number grows as you read this! Interestingly enough, Spain is defying the stereotypical demographics observed all around the world. The average age of Bingo players in Spain is found to be 35 and 67% of players making cash deposits are male!

Increased Broadband availability is the main reason for this growth spurt. With a dial up connection, it was very expensive and time consuming to play a good online Bingo marathon. The slow dial ups took forever to download the game or buffer the software – pushing the phone bill to the ceiling!

In 1998, after the telephone lines got liberalized in Spain, broadband came to every household and more people started getting access to the online Bingo halls. The players also stayed away because of security issues earlier. Where outdated computer hardware and dial up connections posed a significant security threat, the cleaner, secure systems of money transfer offer simple solutions to the players. This advancement in technology made playing Bingo viable even to those wishing to use online payments method.

It also seems that players in Spain were waiting for the US and UK markets to take hold of the market before they started to deposit. They were perhaps skeptical of the Spanish websites or of the game itself and were unwilling to part with their hard earned cash. Even though a lot of people signed up, deposits remained low.

Simpler and faster transfer of money to online Bingo sites without the need of a credit card also helped establish the players’ confidence in the game. Even with the growing number, Spain is still seen as an untapped market. With land based Bingo still being very popular in Spain, transition of loyal Bingo players to the online Bingo halls is almost inevitable.

With the advancement in technology and the increasing broadband connectivity, game quality and security of personal information has increased. Growth in confidence is now natural, and it won’t be long before more Spanish internet users are attracted to the prospect of winning cash prizes at online bingo .
