Mobile gambling is sky rocketing on the scene faster than ever in my opinion. The latest forecasts for mobile gambling revenue are around $4.6 billion in 2009 and $5.6 billion in 2010 (from Jupiter Research).
The reason for the lack of growth in mobile gaming until recently has been down to the technology and slow speed of mobile phone networks. Old style WAP mobile phones such as Nokia 3210’s or black and white screen were never going to allow mobile gaming to take off.
The launch of 3rd generation phones with large, touch screen technology such as the iPhone 4 and Android however have created the platform for growth necessary. A range of mobile casinos and sportsbooks have now developed apps and platforms for smart phone devices (you can see a full range of mobile casinos at www.MobileCasinoBonus.org).
Experts in online gambling have stated that by 2013 they expect mobile gambling to make up more than 10% of total gambling revenues around the world. The ability to download casino and sports wager apps to your mobile phone now has made them extremely popular. UK bookmakers such as William Hill and Ladbrokes for example have announced a 600% increase in mobile betting turnover since the beginning of the year, while Betfair announced £1 billion in bets placed by mobile users in 2010.
The $5.6 billion in mobile revenue forecast in 2011 is a lot different to the $16 billion forcecast back in 2005 for several reasons. The major reason is that the UIGEA 2006 significantly hindered the online gambling industry. It’s for this reason that there’s been such a lack of development in US-friendly mobile sportsbook and casino software.
If it wasn’t for the UIGEA than US-friendly casinos such as Bodog, Sportsbook.com and BetUS would have already launched sopsthicated iPhone and Android casino apps for users in addition to mobile racebook and sportsbook software. This, combined with the ability for gambling operators to legalise advertise in the US media would have been a massive boon to mobile gaming software.

If you’re a mobile phone users than you should be happy to hear that a number of casinos have launched mobile apps and games downloads for you. In fact, mobile casino games have been available for about the last 10 yeas. Even in 2000 William Hill and casinos such as Ladbrokes had downloadable casino games which you could play for real money on your mobile.
Nowadays, in order to play casino games on your mobile you first of all need to sign up to an online casino which has a section devoted to mobile users. From my experiences most big online casinos (such as Ladbrokes, Bet365 and Bodog) all my mobile games available. Of course, there are an awful lot of white label USA casinos which don’t have mobile games such as Rushmore and Slots Oasis.
Once you’ve signed up an account at a site such as Bet365, scroll to the mobile section and follow the instructions. If you’re a WAP cell phone user than you normally just have to text a certain number or you can input your mobile phone number, contact name and mobile phone type over the internet and it will send a mobile casino game to you via SMS. You just need to open this, log into your account using your username and password, and start playing games.
In order to fund your mobile account you can normally do this in two ways. You can either fund your account online via your computer (like a regular online casino player) or you can attach a credit card to your account and make a deposit through your phone. Other commonly accepted mobile phone deposit methods include debit card, neteller, moneybookers and Ukash.
If you have 3rd generation smart phone such as the Google Android or Apple iPhone than you’ll want to take advantage of the advanced smart phone casino games available at sites such as 32Red, All Slots Mobile and Platinum Play. These are some of the top names in the UK mobile casino market.
The great thing about iPhone/Android casinos is that they have much better graphics, better quality games and easier user navigation. iPhone casinos can be downloaded from the Apple App store in the form of an “app” which includes one-click installation. Thus, rather than manually downloading individual games you can download the whole app (or access the iPhone casino through the Safari browser) which includes a dozen or so games to play at your disposal.
The best thing about mobile casinos is that you can play for free or for real money across a wide choice of games including video slots, progressive slot jackpots (specially designed for mobile players), blackjack, roulette, video poker, bingo, keno, scratch card, arcade games and more. New mobile games are released on a monthly basis and new mobile casinos are always cropping up providing better promotions and bonuses for players.

If you are from the UK then their is no doubt that you must have experienced some aspect of the UK online bingo boom even if you have no interest in the game at all. It seems every prime time TV show on the commercial TV stations now has an online bingo sponsor, with also all the commercials simply crammed with online bingo ads. Even popular radio shows and newspapers are now also packed with online bingo ads. I find it amazing that a game such as bingo, has in effect been given a new “sexy” image to appeal to the masses.
It seems though that online bingo is now facing a stiff challenge from yet another aged game which has also received a major makeover. I’m talking of course about the game of roulette. During recent times it seems that roulette is everywhere. Just like online bingo, roulette has even made its way on to popular TV channels such as ITV1 and Channel 5 with now, live roulette games broadcast each night by Challenge Jackpot and Super Casino. Roulette has also invaded high street bookmakers, bingo halls and most live casinos even now devote a large proportion of their floor space to roulette machines. You now can play roulette in a wide range of places including of course online even at online bingo sites.
Come September, roulette is set to gain even more exposure when ITV1 launch a new multi million game show Red or Black. It has been rumoured that during the live shows that finalists will be given a chance to win a cool million just by predicting red or black on the roulette wheel.
There is no doubt that the roulette boom is in full flow and with greater exposure it could become even more popular than online bingo.
