PartyGaming
Launches New Spread Betting Platform
July
2 - Leading online gambling operator, PartyGaming Plc, has
launched a new and exciting financial gambling division called
PartyMarkets.com, in association with top UK-based contracts for
difference (CFD) trading and spread betting firm, City Index.
The launch by London Stock Exchange-listed company is in line
with other leading online gambling companies that have
diversified their product and service offerings, in a move away
from traditional online casino, online poker, online bingo and
online sports betting services.
PartyMarkets.com will develop and manage prices in order to
provide its customer base with access to the major global
financial markets where they can then trade in CFDs, while UK
residents can also rake advantage of the website's financial
spread betting.
Said a PartyGaming group managing director, John O'Malia, 'Our
recent partnership with ITV has bridged the gap between
television and online gambling and now our agreement with City
Index has bridged the gap between e-gaming services and serious
investors.
'This exciting new partnership with City Index will allow us to
develop a dynamic, exciting and unique product range for our
customers, which we are very optimistic about given that
financial markets derivative trading is already a multi-billion
dollar industry.

popular online poker room. Visit
