ZUKIDO UPDATES VICTOR CHANDLER LIVE BETTING AHEAD OF WORLD CUP

With the eagerly-awaited 2010 FIFA World Cup beginning this week, leading e-gaming provider Zukido have successfully upgraded Victor Chandler's Live Betting application, adding new dedicated sport scoreboards, new languages, and support for Virtual Sports.

The addition of Virtual Sports - including Horses, Dogs, Motor Racing and Football - means punters now have access to 24/7 content, backed up by live media. This complements Chandler's existing live product, thereby offering customers unbeatable content offering.

As well as the new Virtual Sports, Zukido have added support for three new dedicated scoreboards - Handball, Baseball and Volleyball - in addition to their existing Football, Tennis, Cricket, Basketball, Snooker and Darts

packages. The application can already handle any event and market, as seen with the huge success Victor Chandler enjoyed with the recent live UK General Election results.

Zukido's Live Now concept has also been extended to include horse racing features such as dedicated race cards that complement existing Bet to View media strategy. Live Now drives punters to events happening across the Victor Chandler site, rather than limiting them to purely in-running offerings.

In addition, the Zukido application now has support for Greek language customers, enabling VC to add this to the currently supported Spanish, German, English, Romanian and Hebrew.

David Sargeant, Commercial Director at Zukido says, 'We are committed to continually evolving our products and are convinced this latest upgrade will bring Victor Chandler great success during the World Cup.'

Paul Louis, Operations Director at Victor Chandler, says 'Zukido have once again demonstrated their ability to deliver new features on time and on budget. We look forward to continuing this successful partnership.'
