The Rank Group will join the Wingo! electronic bingo network in Madrid through Unidesa Gaming & Systems' electronic bingo system. The agreement was signed in Terrassa last Thursday, 19 July 2012.

With the signing of the agreement with the Rank Group, the Wingo! network will be launched in Madrid with over 700 online terminals.

Unidesa Gaming & Systems' Wingo! is a bingo-based network game concept that offers players a new gaming and entertainment experience. Its wide variety of terminals can satisfy all types of players.

For the more daring and adventurous, Flat Wingo 4P is a spectacular table with a giant touch screen that allows 4 people to play simultaneously while connected to the Internet and Tablet Wingo terminals offer a hitherto unknown mobility.

Traditional players can choose the Hex Wingo 6P table, a natural evolution of the bingo table that offers, among other features, a light signal that shows the likelihood of winning of a prize. For players who are already familiarised with videobingo, the Wave Wingo and Star Wingo terminals offer maximum comfort. Besides all this wide range of terminals, Wingo! is distinguished by its new prize structure, since it combines traditional shared prizes with figure individual prizes, which increases players' expectations and makes the game more thrilling.

Unidesa Gaming & Systems welcomes this new project of electronic bingo that joins other operating bingo networks in Spain, including the Red de Bingos Andaluces (Andalusian Bingo Network), the Red de Bingos Canarios (Canary Islands Bingo Network) and Supertoc and Binjocs in Catalonia, all of them also implemented by Unidesa Gaming & Systems and involving more than 15 years of accumulated operation.
