Software developer Playtech has partnered with leading UK chain Buzz Bingo to launch slot tournaments, giving players an opportunity to compete against each other for prizes.
Available on the Buzz Bingo website and powered by Playtech’s ‘Leaderboard Solution’, the game will see players join a live tournament that gets added to a leaderboard, with every win on the applicable slot earning them points to climb the rankings.
The point system is based on a win to stake ratio, with no wagering requirements, meaning players have an equal chance to progress regardless of their stake per spin, and don’t get extra points for betting larger stakes. This encourages players to continue playing at their preferred amount, with every spin during a tournament, up to a certain amount, eligible to earn points.
“Following a highly successful exclusive period for selected players, we’re delighted to be bringing tournaments to a wider audience and offering a key point of differentiation,” said David Swaine, Buzz Bingo head of digital operations.
Playtech’s Leaderboard configuration options also allows licensees to set a maximum qualifying bet amount so they can promote safer gambling behaviour while increasing player engagement.
Playtech casino director James Frendo, added: “Tournaments offer a whole new way to engage players, as well as add an extra level of enjoyment for players at no extra cost to themselves. Also, because points are awarded based on the size of the win in proportion to the bet, players who prefer to stick to lower stakes are not disadvantaged, encouraging them to stay within their limits.”
Mansour will join Buzz later this month having previously served as chief executive of Bragg Gaming, where he had been serving as chief executive before leaving the business last year.
Prior to this, Mansour had a spell as senior vice president for South Europe at PokerStars and also as managing director at Full Tilt.
“We operate in a highly competitive, fast-moving sector but one in which Buzz’s omni-channel opportunity gives something unique,” Mansour said.
“I know after more than 20 years in this industry, all over the world, we have the ingredients to really succeed and grow. I’m really looking forward to bringing my experience to Buzz and to work together to drive the business onto the next stage.”
Buzz Bingo chief executive Chris Matthews added: “Dominic coming on board with his exceptional sector and leadership experience will be crucial in driving the next phase of digital growth for Buzz.”
Meanwhile, Buzz Bingo has also appointed Shaves, currently its chief digital officer, as its new chief commercial officer.
Replacing Jamie Queen, who is set to leave Buzz at the end of January, Shaves will head up bingo, slots and food and beverage product development, as well as partnerships, procurement and driving Buzz’s omni-channel strategy.
“Stevie has done an incredible job taking Buzzbingo.com from an idea to one of the UK’s leading online brands in just over two years,” Matthews said. “I am excited about what Stevie can deliver for us in his new commercial group role.
