LISTED Leisure & Resort World Corp. (LRWC) has launched the country’s first online traditional bingo (OTB) game via its subsidiary called “BingoPlus,” which is in line with its digital expansion plans.
In a statement on Monday, LRWC subsidiary AB Leisure Exponent, Inc.’s BingoPlus is the first OTB that received a license from the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp.
“One of the company’s major strategies is to strengthen online platforms to provide more and better playing opportunities to customers during the pandemic and beyond,” LRWC President Tsui Kin Ming said.
“OTB is a great way to enjoy bingo from the comfort of ones’ home without having to miss out on social interaction and have the chance to win huge prizes,” he added.
BingoPlus has “rich promotional activities,” bonuses, and a jackpot prize that is said to be over P2 million. LRWC said it expects online traditional bingo to be one of its main revenue streams in the future.
Through the OTB, users can play bingo from their homes using a mobile phone. The company said that users can also virtually interact through online bingo chatrooms.
The OTB is also offered on-site in 18 Bingo Bonanza Traditional Bingo Halls within Metro Manila and in some provinces. LRWC is also gearing to expand the OTB offering to other traditional bingo sites across the country.
LRWC shares on Monday went up by 0.72% or one centavo to close at P1.40 apiece. — Keren Concepcion G. Valmonte
