Recent months has seen an increase in the number of online gaming sites being launched in Spain (particularly online bingo and poker). But while the online gaming phenomenon took hold in the US and UK some time ago, it is only recently that the numbers of
online players in Spain has increased, allowing companies the confidence to delve into the Spanish markets.
So what are the reasons for the recent increase in the number of players and game site launches?
The main reason is seen as the increase in availability of broadband across the country. Previously those with only a modem dial up connection would find it both expensive and frustrating playing a game which required a download and a sufficiently fast continuous connection. As dial-up in Spain is charged per minute, and with Telefonica (the worlds 6th largest telecoms company) previously being the sole provider of fixed telephone lines, and therefore its pricing mechanisms, you can see how people have been put off from using the internet, let alone delving into the world of online gaming.
However, times are changing. The liberalization of the fixed-line telecommunications service market in Spain was completed in 1998. Spain (9th in the table for European broadband coverage) with penetration just slightly lower than the European average is now ahead of countries such as France and Germany. Recent European rulings, together with large EU subsidies (23 million euros grant plus 120 million euros in interest free loans) are encouraging healthy competition for broadband provision in both large towns and remote locations. More and more companies are providing various means of gaining high speed access to the internet and the prices are tumbling rapidly as competition heats up. Nortel and Vodafone Spain have also recently demonstrated their mobile telephony at 3.6 Megabits per second at the 3GSM World Congress 2006 in Barcelona. At these rates customers will have access to higher speed broadband than the majority of European fixed broadband connections operating at 2 Megabits per second, providing a further option for those wishing to delve into the world of mobile gaming via laptop, palmtop or phone.
You’ve probably played countless lottery games and spent a small fortune in the process with little or no success. Well now you could radically improve your chances of success in an e-Lottery syndicate.
Wherever you are in the world you can play e-Lottery – a proven winner that massively increases your chances of winning two of the richest, lump sum, tax-free lotteries in the world; The UK National Lotto and the European lottery Euro Millions.
Since our launch in April 2002 we’ve paid out millions in cash, to thousands of e-Lottery syndicate members in 133 countries around the world.
Play the lottery on your own and you only have one chance to win, but as an e-Lottery syndicate member, you’re one of a 49 strong team, increasing your chance to win the multimillion pound UK national Lotto jackpot by a remarkable 702%.
What’s more, you have a 1 in 13 chance of winning any cash prize. The e-Lottery syndicate increases your chances of winning the huge Euro Millions jackpot by an even more remarkable 3,600%. You also have a 1 in 4 chance of winning any one of the many cash prizes.
So how does e-Lottery work? Well as part of a 49 strong e-Lottery syndicate, you play with only 5 main numbers, because the syndicate is guaranteed to match the 6th number in every UK Lotto draw. And even better, your syndicate is guaranteed to match both Lucky Star numbers in every Euro Millions draw.
Exclusively to e-Lottery syndicates, you’re guaranteed to win a prize for matching only two UK Lotto main numbers and for matching only one Euro Millions number. But that’s not all. Incredibly, when you win, you win not just one prize but multiple cash prizes – up to 44 in a UK National Lotto syndicate and up to 36 in a Euro Millions syndicate.
