Virtue Fusion To Launch Scratchcard Games

Alderney-licensed online bingo and gambling platform provider Virtue Fusion Limited is set to launch a trio of new networked progressive jackpot scratchcard games later this month based on summer themes.

The Beachside Bonanza game will lead the roll-out on July 21 with a jackpot seeded at £5,000 followed by Arabian Delights and Beat The Banker on July 28.

”At Virtue Fusion, our intention is to be one step ahead of the perceived competition,” said Bob McCulloch, Chief Executive Officer for Virtue Fusion.

“These progressive networked jackpots on scratchcards are unique to the market. Scratchcards tend to have short product life cycles. The aim, therefore, is to increase their longevity by having a progressive networked jackpot. This, in turn, produces greater potential jackpots creating interest over longer sustained periods of time and, thus, building on our policy of improving customer site retention.”

The progressive prize will be linked across all three of the games in order to make the jackpot grow quicker. The minimum stake is due to be set at 20 pence with the maximum at two pounds and players will be required to match any three symbols in order to win.

Virtue Fusion is one of the world’s leading suppliers of Internet bingo solutions and its network operates on an aggregated model so that partners benefit from shared critical mass and larger jackpots.

For players staking any less than the maximum of two pounds on the scratchcard games, a percentage of the jackpot will be paid out in the event of a win. For example, matching three diamond symbols with a stake of 20 pence will see the winner take home ten percent of the total jackpot.
