Online gaming provider Virgin Games has announced that it has centralised its offerings through a new in-house platform that will be managed centrally from its head office on the island of Guernsey.
With this move, Virgin Games has become an operating company in its own right utilising gaming licenses held in Alderney and Malta.
Virgin Games’ casino service was previously outsourced to WagerWorks while Boss Media handled its poker operation with St Minver responsible for bingo. However, after 18 months of development, Virgin Games revealed that it is now able to offer a more streamlined customer experience with players given the opportunity to participate across multiple gaming products using a central sign-on solution and a single wallet.
Players now only need to register once in order to take part and browse seamlessly through Virgin’s poker, bingo and casino offerings. In addition, customers will be able to compete for bonus promotions and loyalty points across all of Virgin’s games.
The firm has also launched an in-house customer service call centre and will also be responsible for co-ordinating its own player databases and payment processing systems. Virgin revealed that its around-the-clock ‘customer experience solution’ would bring ‘all consumer touch points’ together in-house including telephone, e-mail and web-chat for greater control, improved efficiency and an ‘all around excellent customer experience’.
'In developing and taking ownership of the new customer experience programme, we have focused on creating the best possible value and service for our customers,” said Simon Burridge, Chief Executive Officer for Virgin Games.
“Here at Virgin Games, we live and breathe the Virgin brand values and feel taking the customer service department in-house and integrating all three gaming services allows us to continue to deliver the unique Virgin experience that our customers have come to expect.
'Our players have told us that they would like to see a wider range of games at Virgin Games and we intend to give them exactly what they are looking for. There have been some very exciting new games brought into the market recently and we look forward to introducing them into the Virgin Games product offering.”

WagerWorks Releases Transformers: Ultimate Payback
Online gaming software supplier WagerWorks has debuted its latest slot title, Transformers: Ultimate Payback, in hopes of taking advantage of the excitement surrounding the release of the next film in the Transformers series.
London-based WagerWorks is a subsidiary of International Game Technology (IGT), the Reno-based designer and manufacturer of computerised gaming equipment, and revealed that its new 25-payline slot features original characters, graphics and sounds from the age-long story about the square-off between Optimus Prime and Megatron.
The debut film in the series, Transformers, was released in 2007 and its first sequel, Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen, debuts this week at cinemas around the world.
Transformers: Ultimate Payback features transforming symbols and animated wilds that multiply wins into fortunes. These wilds expand to make an entire reel wild and the slot also features a Cybertron Wild offering a multiplier of up to ten times.
Players gain entry into the game’s free spins Ultimate Payback Bonus when two bonus symbols appear on the first and fifth reels while additional transforming and Cybertron wilds during the bonus round allow players to further multiply their winnings.
The game also features a free spins bonus where Optimus Prime and Megatron battle for supremacy. If a player’s preferred Transformer wins during this stage, that competitor can receive a bonus of up to 3,250 additional credits. This bonus ends when one Transformer wins or 100 free spins have been played.

UK: Virgin Games delivers 5 minute customer response time with multimedia contact centre application from NEC Philips - 11th June 2009
Virgin Games, Virgin's on-line gaming offering announces an average email response time of less than five minutes to customers, following the implementation of a multimedia contact centre solution from NEC Philips Unified Solutions.
The company went live with the new solution, which utilises the latest IP and contact centre technology from NEC Philips, in November 2008 with the launch of its in-house Customer Support Team, beginning the process of replacing its previously outsourced customer support functions to ensure full ownership of and a better more streamlined customer experience.
With the new, dynamic all-in-one solution from NEC Philips, which combines call, chat and email customer contact facilities to enable communication through a variety of preferred channels and improved customer experience, Virgin Games has seen a 200-300% improvement in service delivery.
In addition to a dramatic improvement in response times, Virgin Games has announced a drop in average abandonment rates to below 1%.
Operations Director Christina Thakor-Rankin explains, "Most companies consider 2-5% abandonment acceptable, however Virgin Games has proved that with a dynamic and cost-effective solution like the one offered by NEC Philips, a better level of customer experience has been made possible. Of course, at launch our volumes went through the roof and whilst we aim for First Contact Resolution wherever possible, the fact that some customer interactions require some investigation means that unfortunately it is not always possible to give an instant response. However, aside from this and exceptional events, we treat all customer contacts irrespective of channel as 'on demand' and aim to respond accordingly, with an average combined response time of under five minutes. The challenge now is to maintain this level and ensure that our customer service delivery continues to improve in spite of a rise in traffic through the site - we remain quietly optimistic that we can sustain this esteemed level of service. "
The Virgin Games combined multi-media contact centre is a first within the Virgin Group, breaking away from traditional telephony based applications and embracing new and evolving customer contact applications. Thakor-Rankin says, "We regularly compare ourselves against the industry standard and we're really pleased to be able to say that our response rates are some of the very best out there, especially in the case of e-mails where we operate to a standard service level of minutes rather than hours."
Commenting on the selection of NEC Philips, Thakor-Rankin says, "We must have looked at the best part of a dozen systems before we came across the NEC Philips solution. We were instantly impressed by the proposition, and NEC Philips has continued to demonstrate a thorough understanding of our business needs and a quality and dynamic solution that has revolutionised the way that we operate and pushed Virgin Games up the leader board."
Thakor-Rankin continues, "Critical to the instant success of the new solution is that it is an all-in-one application. In the last five and a half months we have received 25,000 hits across all media, be it call, chat or email. Nevertheless, the system we are now running is so dynamic that our 24/7 contact centre, offering support for three distinctive products (poker, casino and bingo) including all query types and escalations, is staffed by 11 people against a perception that the minimum required is around 14. This is another metric by which we can demonstrate that we are running a more cost-effective service than our competitors, which in turn will enable us to offer a better service to our customers."
The customer experience is critical both to an online business model such as Virgin Games and the Virgin brand, and relies on a cohesive and intelligent customer management processes. The intelligent solution from NEC Philips is a critical element of the customer relationship management strategy at Virgin Games, and the company continues to work closely with NEC Philips to maximise the potential of the new system and to identify any further areas for improvement.
Thakor-Rankin concludes, "We are using the application from NEC Philips to measure first time resolution as well as other key performance indicators, to better understand the customer experience and to continue to deliver improvements across all communication channels. We are delighted with the system and the service from NEC Philips and we look forward to continuing our relationship with them."

Others could follow us, says Virgin Games chief executive - This Is Guernsey - 9th June 2009
Guernsey has become the central hub for all Virgin Games online gaming services.
The company moved to Guernsey last year and took on four people, according to Virgin Games chief executive Simon Burridge (pictured).
‘We started as a marketing operation, which meant we had to outsource all operations except marketing,’ he said.
That has now changed and the company has centralised its casino, poker and bingo services in the island.
Making all the operations in-house had always been the intention when moving to Guernsey, according to Mr Burridge.
He said he was pleased with how the company was operating here.
‘It is a lovely place. It has fantastic infrastructure and we wanted to employ people with financial experience. It is also close to the UK and we are regulated nearby in Alderney.’
He said he could definitely see more online companies moving to the island. (Credit: This Is Guernsey)

Virgin Games Delivers The Ultimate Gaming Experience
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwire - June 1, 2009)
Today Virgin Games, the online gaming service, announces that it has centralised its offerings and has become an operating company in its own right working from one common platform. This development will provide a streamlined customer experience by offering players the opportunity to play across multiple gaming products using a central sign on solution and a single Virgin Games wallet. The operation of Virgin Games gaming service was formerly outsourced to three different operators; Wagerworks for Casino; Boss Media for Poker and St.Minver for Bingo. The operation on the new Virgin Games platform has now been taken in-house and will be managed centrally from their head office in Guernsey.
With the Virgin customer experience being of core importance, players now only need to register once to become a Virgin Games player and browse seamlessly through all of the games at Virgin Poker, Virgin Casino and Virgin Bingo. Additionally, under the new system, Virgin players will be able to play for bonus promotions and Virgin Games loyalty points, V-Points, across all games offered.
The strategic shift to become a fully fledged gaming operator has taken place at Virgin Games over the last 18 months. The company now operates using two gaming licenses held in Alderney and Malta and runs an in-house customer service call centre as well as owning and co-ordinating player databases and payment processing systems. The 24/7 customer experience solution will bring all consumer touch points together in-house including telephone, email and web-chat communication resulting in greater control, improved efficiency and an all round excellent customer experience.
Simon Burridge, CEO Virgin Games, comments: "In developing and taking ownership of the new customer experience program, we have focused on creating the best possible value and service for our customers. Here at Virgin Games, we live and breathe the Virgin brand values and feel taking the customer service department in-house and integrating all three gaming services allows us to continue to deliver the unique Virgin experience that our customers have come to expect."
"Our players have told us that they would like to see a wider range of games at Virgin Games and we intend to give them exactly what they're looking for. There have been some very exciting new games brought into the market recently and we look forward to introducing them into the Virgin Games product offering" said Burridge.

Online poker: Five card clicks, by Rob Sharp - The Independent - 6th May 2009
Virtual casinos bring the game right to your laptop. As The Independent launches its own poker league, Rob Sharp discovers why online gambling is becoming an even bigger deal
In a dusty room that has never seen the light of day, a concerned-looking man sits nervously behind a computer screen. He takes a moment to assess another man, who sits at a terminal nearby. They are locked into an anxious battle of wills. The first man looks his opponent slowly up and down, before quietly clicking on the computer mouse beside him.The two men are showcasing Virgin Poker, Virgin’s online poker gaming website, at Aspers, a casino in central Newcastle.
There are few things that would tempt out journalists on such a drab day in the North East, but online poker is big business. One million people gamble using the controversial card game in the UK each year, part of a global industry worth over £1bn. By logging on to virgingames.com or PokerStars.com competitors can emulate their poker-playing heroes from the comfort of their bedrooms. An increase in the tax on poker profits from 15 to 50 per cent, announced in last month’s Budget, will clip the wings of traditional poker operators. But many online poker companies, including Virgin Poker, are based offshore and are thus exempt.
While encouraging people to gamble responsibly, today The Independent, in a joint venture with Virgin Poker, launches its own poker league via independent.co.uk. “Nowadays there are over half a million regular online poker players logging on and playing,” says Joe Legge, poker product manager at Virgin Games. “For some, it’s their profession but for most it’s a form of entertainment that is mentally stimulating and doesn’t have to involve risking a lot of money. The Independent’s poker league is a great extension of our commitment to the social side of poker playing. ”Steph Boyd, from Darvel near Glasgow, known simply by the gaming moniker of “mole man”, is one of the people who relies on poker playing online for his entire income, not just for entertainment.
Related articles
In 2006, his first year of professional play, he claims to have made £1.5m. “It’s a great lifestyle, it’s a great job,” he says, sat at a traditional poker table close to the online gamers in Newcastle. “To be honest, there are not a lot of other jobs I could do. Before I turned professional I worked as a fitness instructor, but then I made a serious amount of money in a very short space of time.” Three years ago, he created a bank account and deposited into it £1,000 to fund his poker. Soon he was able to regularly withdraw a monthly salary of £200. Before long he gave up his job to turn to poker full-time. Needless to say, for every poker tale of rags to riches there is another ending in ruin.
Former mayor Jayne Yeomans was jailed last month for stealing almost £65,000 to fund her online poker addiction. In an effort to cover her tracks, the 49-year-old forged her husband’s signature and remortgaged their house to raise £25,000 to pay some of it back. Kara Scott, who hosts the television coverage online of the PokerStars European Poker tour, plays at least three hours of online poker a day. She thinks cases such as Yeomans’ are not representative and give a misleading impression of the world of online poker players. “I think there are people out there with really addictive personalities who get addicted to anything,” she says. “Some people are always going to take it too far.
Thankfully, there are organisations out there [such as GamCare.org.uk] you can get in touch with. And with most online poker sites you can select the option to deny yourself. You effectively tell the site about your problem and they will block you for six months or a year so that you can’t get back on.” As a condition of handing out poker licenses, the British government’s Gambling Commission insists poker companies encourage socially responsible gambling. Operators must verify people’s ages before allowing them to play (in the UK players must be 18 or over) and provide as much information about socially responsible gambling on their websites as possible.
Players are encouraged to contact a charity such as GamCare if they feel they have an unhealthy interest in online gambling (or are using it to escape from their problems, become restless when they are not playing, or continually try to stop but can’t). Virgin Games is licenced and regulated by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission, the Channel Islands’ own regulatory body for poker. Boyd is confident that for him, gambling is only a positive thing, and that he has found a way of making his online habit work for him. “My priorities are my wife and three kids. I have luckily been able to buy a new house and that is a great thing to have at my stage in life. My online poker playing is a wee bit of fun.
So far, it has been very good to me. It just seems to be common sense for me to keep going. My wife went to university three years ago and hopes to start a new job in finance. All in all, she has been very supportive.” Playing at home also has advantages for Scott. “I can see how coming to somewhere like Newcastle to compete in a traditional poker tournament with lots of burly men might be intimidating to some women,” she says. “That fear is definitely circumnavigated by playing online. And you do get a few men who do some really inappropriate things. Yesterday there was a drunk man among the crowd of people asking for my autograph. He asked me to autograph his penis. I said no. What I should have said is, ‘Do you want me to initial it?’”
Poker people: Winners and losers
* Chris Moneymaker, an American accountant, won a seat at the 2003 World Series of Poker after playing a satellite tournament in the PokerStars online poker room. It cost him $39 to enter the first game; he ended up netting the $2.5m first prize at the global tournament. “It's a contentious issue whether poker is actually gambling,” he says.
* Zachary Gruneberg, a 19-year-old player from Pennsylvania, dropped out of university last month to pursue a career as a professional poker player. In January he won $250,000 at Australia’s 2009 Aussie Millions Poker Championship. He’s too young to gamble legally in the US, so instead, he spends his time playing online. “There'd be days where I'd play 10-plus hours of poker online at school,” he says. “While you're playing, you can do so much other stuff. You can watch a TV show, talk to your friends, be on Facebook. It's all about multi-tasking.”
* Roy ‘the Boy’ Brindley, born in Dorking, Surrey, left a career training greyhounds to win £1m in online poker over an eight-year period. In his autobiography, ‘Life’s a Gamble’, he admits that gambling addiction has rendered him homeless at points in his life. Nevertheless: “To me, it’s massively satisfying. I was never good at sports and was 30 when I discovered a game that I could win at,” he says.
* Christopher Proudfoot, a finance controller, siphoned £1m of his employer’s money into his bank account between December 2004 and January 2008 to fund his habit. The 28-year-old fraudster, who now lives with his parents in Inverness, pleaded guilty in February to embezzling the cash. “The problem with some of these sites is when you win big they have their own way of getting it back,” he says. “When you’ve won a fair amount of money you can’t easily get it back. They don’t let you withdraw without letting everyone you are playing with no, so you carry on competing.” (Credit: The Independent)

In a dusty room that has never seen the light of day, a concerned-looking man sits nervously behind a computer screen. He takes a moment to assess another man, who sits at a terminal nearby. They are locked into an anxious battle of wills. The first man looks his opponent slowly up and down, before quietly clicking on the computer mouse beside him.The two men are showcasing Virgin Poker, Virgin’s online poker gaming website, at Aspers, a casino in central Newcastle.
There are few things that would tempt out journalists on such a drab day in the North East, but online poker is big business. One million people gamble using the controversial card game in the UK each year, part of a global industry worth over £1bn. By logging on to virgingames.com or PokerStars.com competitors can emulate their poker-playing heroes from the comfort of their bedrooms. An increase in the tax on poker profits from 15 to 50 per cent, announced in last month’s Budget, will clip the wings of traditional poker operators. But many online poker companies, including Virgin Poker, are based offshore and are thus exempt.
While encouraging people to gamble responsibly, today The Independent, in a joint venture with Virgin Poker, launches its own poker league via independent.co.uk. “Nowadays there are over half a million regular online poker players logging on and playing,” says Joe Legge, poker product manager at Virgin Games. “For some, it’s their profession but for most it’s a form of entertainment that is mentally stimulating and doesn’t have to involve risking a lot of money. The Independent’s poker league is a great extension of our commitment to the social side of poker playing. ”Steph Boyd, from Darvel near Glasgow, known simply by the gaming moniker of “mole man”, is one of the people who relies on poker playing online for his entire income, not just for entertainment.

In 2006, his first year of professional play, he claims to have made £1.5m. “It’s a great lifestyle, it’s a great job,” he says, sat at a traditional poker table close to the online gamers in Newcastle. “To be honest, there are not a lot of other jobs I could do. Before I turned professional I worked as a fitness instructor, but then I made a serious amount of money in a very short space of time.” Three years ago, he created a bank account and deposited into it £1,000 to fund his poker. Soon he was able to regularly withdraw a monthly salary of £200. Before long he gave up his job to turn to poker full-time. Needless to say, for every poker tale of rags to riches there is another ending in ruin.
Former mayor Jayne Yeomans was jailed last month for stealing almost £65,000 to fund her online poker addiction. In an effort to cover her tracks, the 49-year-old forged her husband’s signature and remortgaged their house to raise £25,000 to pay some of it back. Kara Scott, who hosts the television coverage online of the PokerStars European Poker tour, plays at least three hours of online poker a day. She thinks cases such as Yeomans’ are not representative and give a misleading impression of the world of online poker players. “I think there are people out there with really addictive personalities who get addicted to anything,” she says. “Some people are always going to take it too far.
Thankfully, there are organisations out there [such as GamCare.org.uk] you can get in touch with. And with most online poker sites you can select the option to deny yourself. You effectively tell the site about your problem and they will block you for six months or a year so that you can’t get back on.” As a condition of handing out poker licenses, the British government’s Gambling Commission insists poker companies encourage socially responsible gambling.

Poker fan Pete indulges in horseplay - The Shields Gazette - 30th April 2009
A Boldon man turned up to a North East poker festival dressed as a Grand National runner.
Pete Turner, 32, from East Boldon, made up in laughs what he lacked in poker luck – going out in the fifth level.
It was the second time the Virgin Poker festival has came to Newcastle, and saw both amateur and professional players competing for a slice of the £30,000 prize pot.
One group of players from South Shields turned up in full Newcastle United football strips, hoping their luck would change after the 2-0 defeat to Chelsea.
However it was Ross Jarvis, 24, from London, who entered the last table with the most chips, and maintained his lead throughout the final leg, winning the Virgin Poker festival title and the top prize of £7,000.
Joe Legge, Poker Manager for Virgin Poker, said: "It was great to return to Aspers Casino for a second time and bring the fun of the Virgin Games experience to the people of North East England."

Dungeons and Dragons: Fortress of Fortunes
Introduction
Go on a quest for immense riches within our world of bold warriors, ancient fortresses and challenging monsters. Take on the role of a legendary hero and test yourself against 20 tantalizing lines of slot action.
Three or more Bonus symbols unlock the gates into the Fortress of Fortunes™ Bonus. Explore the Fortress Dungeon in search of free spins and multipliers. The throw of a 20-sided die decides whether or not you vanquish the monsters blocking your path to greater riches. Make your way to the Dragon's Cave for the chance to earn an additional 4x multiplier.
Complete your quest by redeeming your spoils in the Fortress Free Spins™. The free spins reels are vastly enriched with numerous Stacked Wilds®. The bonus paytable is enchanted with extra ways to win. The top award is boosted to 10,000 per line bet or a whopping max-bet treasure trove of 50,000 credits! Line up bonus Stacked Wilds and reap the rewards of multiple top awards. And if you earned any of the 20x worth of multipliers from within the Dungeon, you'll reap staggering riches.
How To Bet
Dungeons & Dragons: Fortress of Fortunes has 20 paylines, with the option of betting 1-5 credits on each payline.
The current bet per line is displayed in the LINE BET meter. Click the left arrow (-) to decrease bet per line. Click the right arrow (+) to increase bet per line.
Click the MAX BET button to bet the maximum, which is 5 credits per payline. MAX BET is only available for 100 credits and above.
Click the PLAY button to spin the reels. When PLAY is pressed, the number shown on the PLAY button is the number of credits bet.
Use the LINES control to change the number of active paylines. The LINES box displays the current number of paylines selected. Click the left arrow (-) to decrease the number of paylines. Click the right arrow (+) to increase the number of paylines. The number of available paylines: 1, 5, 10, 15 or 20 paylines.
LINE BET or LINES may alternatively be selected by directly clicking the corresponding bar within the LINE BET or LINES meter.
Fortress of Fortunes™ Bonus
Get a Bonus symbol on three or more reels to enter the Fortress of Fortunes™ Bonus.
You enter the bonus with an award multiplier and a number of free spins based upon the number of initiating Bonus symbols (see paytable for specifics). Before starting your actual free spins, try to earn additional free spins and multipliers in the Fortress Dungeon.
Dungeon Exploration
You start in the centre of the top level of the Fortress Dungeon. An icon of your selected hero marks your location.
A direction arrow is available at each doorway of your current chamber. Click an arrow to select a direction to move. An equivalent set of arrows can also be found in the compass rose in the lower right corner of the screen.
When you enter a darkened dungeon chamber, you see and automatically engage the contents within.
Dungeon Contents
Gold Chalice
Earn the listed number of additional free spins.
Treasure Chest
Earn the listed number of additional bonus multipliers.
Enchanted Weapon
Earn one additional strength point for your hero. The appearance of the enchantment varies with your choice of hero.
Stairway
Come upon the start of a stairway and you descend to the next level. The chamber into which you arrive will show the bottom of the stairs, which are protected by a spell to keep you from going back up.
Monster
As the guardians of the treasure chests in the lower levels, monsters can shorten your exploration adventure. A battle ensues whenever you encounter a monster.
Prevail against a monster to grab its treasure and continue your exploration. If the chamber contains the start of a stairway, you descend to the next level after your treasure is collected.
If you vanquish the Dragon in the very deepest level, you earn an additional 4x multiplier and proceed to the Fortress Free Spins.
If you fail to vanquish a monster, it will cast a teleport spell against you, sending you to the Fortress Free Spins.
Dungeon Battle
When you enter a chamber containing a monster, the perspective changes in preparation for battle. The initiative to attack first is automatically yours. To launch your attack, click the spinning die between the combatants or click the ROLL button in the lower right hand corner of the screen. For your attack to succeed, the sum of the final die value plus your hero's strength must be greater than or equal to the monster's strength. The hero's and monster's respective strength values are displayed next to each of them. The minimum die roll required is displayed just below the fighters.
The die is a standard "d20" - a twenty-sided die with all the values from 1 through 20 on its twenty equal-sized surfaces. This is a completely fair die so your success is only limited by your luck.
Monster strength increases the deeper into the dungeon you go.
Additional Dungeon Details
The dungeon contents and configuration are randomly determined prior to your arrival and do not subsequently change until the bonus is complete. The path you select determines the adventure you will have.
In the lower dungeon levels, there are usually two or more stairways from the level above. However, you will only ever see the bottom of the stairs you descend and never those of any of the other stairways.
The chamber below a stairway is always empty.
There are no centre room stairways.
Monsters do not inhabit the first level of the dungeon.
Monster strength increases the deeper you descend into the dungeon.
A monster in a centre chamber is stronger than any other monster on that level.
There is never more than one enchanted weapon per dungeon.
Each of the three heroes has the same odds of winning against the various monsters.
No monsters were injured or killed in the making of this game.
Fortress Free Spins™
When you arrive at the free spins round, you will get to play off all of your starting free spins plus any additional free spins you earned from your dungeon exploration. All bonus pays earned during a free spin are multiplied by your bonus multiplier.
Even with the lowest bonus multiplier, 1x, free spins are extremely rich.
Free spins are highly enriched by the addition of Stacked Wilds to every bonus reel. Similarly, the bonus paytable is significantly boosted at both ends.
All of the major symbols (D&D Logo, Hero, Castle, Dragon) have 2-symbol pays during free spins. At the other end of the award scale, the top award (Logo-Logo-Logo-Logo-Logo) pay is extraordinarily enhanced. With the greater number of Wilds on the free spins reels, you are that much more likely to earn a top award.
If you earned any additional multipliers from your dungeon exploration, these apply to all free spins line pays, including the top award! If three or more Bonus symbols appear during a free spin, the corresponding scatter pay award is likewise multiplied by your bonus multiplier. Three or more Bonus symbols also retrigger your bonus, awarding you additional free spins equal to the total number of free spins earned when the bonus was triggered plus the number of free spins accumulated from the dungeon (up to a maximum of 180 free spins in a single bonus round).
Your effective bet for these free spins is the same as the bet you placed when your bonus was initially triggered. Total bonus win is the sum of all awards won from your free spins. If your total win during a bonus round reaches or exceeds 250,000 currency units (e.g. Pounds, Euros, Dollars), then you directly win the max 250,000 currency units pay. When a max pay is awarded, the game ends, even if the max pay is awarded during a bonus round and you have not played out all your free spins.
With the Stacked Wilds, a boosted top award value and a potential bonus multiplier of 10x or larger, the Fortress of Fortunes Bonus offers the best chance yet to earn the max pay.
Options
Clicking the OPTIONS button reveals a panel that allows you to customise your game experience.
AUDIO You can turn the game audio ON (default) or OFF by clicking the corresponding option.
GRAPHICS QUALITY You may want to adjust the quality of the graphics to get the optimal animation performance on your computer. In BEST mode, the graphics look the best, but performance may suffer. The HIGH (default) and MEDIUM settings lower the quality but increase the performance. In LOW mode, the graphics are degraded, but the smoothest animation performance is achieved even on slower computers.
Rules
Malfunction voids all pays and plays.
All line pay symbols must appear on a played line and on consecutive reels, beginning with the far left reel.
All payline wins occur on bet lines only.
Only highest winner paid on each payline.
Only one award paid per payline.
Line wins are multiplied by the total number of credits bet on the winning line.
Coinciding wins on different paylines are added.
Awards are shown in credits.
The maximum win on any transaction is capped at 250,000 currency units (pounds, for example). A transaction includes the results of free spins in bonus plus the outcome which launched the bonus
Additional Information
The GAME CONSOLE provides information and access to additional features:
Your current balance in your chosen currency
Your total number of credits
The denomination in which the game is being played. This represents the value of each credit. The METER BAR on the bottom of the game screen displays the denomination in which the game is being played, the number of credits paid if a win occurred, and the number of credits bet on the last/current proposition.

Introduction
MegaJackpots® Monopoly
Care to join Mr. Monopoly for a lucrative stroll to Mayfair? Monopoly features exciting bonus opportunities plus our largest Jackpot ever - we're talking millions!
Line up 5 MegaJackpots symbols on the centre payline with max bet, and you win a life-changing award which would even make Mr. Monopoly jealous.
Additionally, this 9-line slot game has TWO amazing bonuses: the Pass "GO" Bonus which allows you to play the world's most popular board game for lots of cash, and the Chance Win Spin Bonus which gives you free spins until you win, win, win!
All of this plus our exciting gamble feature and the charming appearance of Mr. Monopoly himself as he cheers you on to a new world of possible riches!
Pass GO Bonus
Earn the Pass "GO" Bonus by getting three Bonus Dice symbols on a payline on which you have bet. When you trigger the Pass "GO" Bonus, select one of the three animating Bonus Dice symbols to determine how many times you may roll the dice in the bonus round. Each Bonus Dice symbol reveals a different number of dice rolls, ranging from 1 to 6. After the number of rolls is revealed, you go to the Monopoly Bonus board, where you roll the dice to collect bonus winnings.
Once you arrive at the Monopoly Bonus board, click ROLL to roll the dice. Your game piece moves along the Monopoly board in a clockwise direction the same number of spots as the sum of your dice roll. The small numbered dice symbols that appear on the board spots indicate what dice value is needed to reach that spot. For your first roll in the bonus, your game piece starts off the board, so your first step is onto the "GO" spot.
You start the bonus with an award of 10. Each time your game piece lands on a deed, you add the award value associated with the deed to your award. When you round the board and pass "GO", the deed awards on the board grow. The first time you pass "GO", the deed awards are doubled. After passing "GO" twice or more, the deed awards are tripled.
If your game piece lands on Chance, your game piece advances to another spot on the board, selected completely at random.
If your game piece stops on the Free Parking spot, you will be all the richer for it. The parking meter randomly selects an award value to add to your total bonus win.
In addition to the awards that you accumulate, there are two special spots, "GO" and Jail, that can earn you even more cash! If you land on "GO", you earn a 2x Bonus Multiplier, which multiplies your entire bonus total.
If you land in Jail, you are taken to the Jail Bonus, where you can earn a Bonus Multiplier if you roll doubles within three tries. The sooner you roll doubles, (both die values the same), the larger your Bonus Multiplier. You have three chances: if you roll doubles on the first roll, you earn a 5x multiplier, if you roll doubles on the second roll, you earn a 3x multiplier, and if you roll doubles on your last roll, you earn a 2x multiplier. If you do not roll doubles within 3 tries, the Jail Bonus ends without adding a Bonus Multiplier.
If you land on either "GO" or Jail more than once and earn a Bonus Multiplier, your Bonus Multipliers are added together.
At the end of your bonus round, your Total Bonus Award is calculated by multiplying the bet on the payline that triggered the bonus, times the sum of all of the awards that you accumulated, times the total of any Bonus Multipliers you earned.
Gamble
After any award less than 3000 credits, you have the opportunity to gamble your win in a completely fair round of double or nothing.
Click the GAMBLE button after a win to Gamble an award. A deck of Gamble cards appears which always contains an equal number of red and black aces. Click RED or BLACK to guess which colour ace will appear next. If the colour you predicted is revealed, then your gambled money is doubled! If the other colour is revealed, then your Gamble bet is forfeited and the Gamble round is concluded.
Click the TAKE HALF button to deposit half of your winnings back into your main balance, leaving the other half available for further gambling. You can click TAKE HALF once before each Gamble try.
Click the TAKE WIN button to collect all of your winnings and end the Gamble round.
If you win 5 gambles in a row within the same Gamble round, or if your Gamble award reaches 3000 or higher, your Gamble round automatically ends.
With the deck of cards, you have a 50:50 chance of revealing either a red or black ace with every choice. Though the history of the last fourteen outcomes (red, black) is also provided, each card chosen is completely independent.
Options
Clicking the OPTIONS button reveals a panel that allows you to customise your game experience.
You can customise the GRAPHICS QUALITY of the game. You may want to adjust the quality of the graphics to get the optimal animation performance on your computer. In BEST mode, the graphics look the best, but performance may suffer. The HIGH (default) and MEDIUM settings lower the quality but increase the performance. In LOW mode, the graphics are degraded, but the smoothest animation performance is achieved even on slower computers.
You can customise the AUDIO settings of the game. The audio can be turned ON or OFF, depending on your preference.
Rules
Malfunction voids all pays and plays.
All payline wins occur on wagered lines only.
Only highest winner paid on each payline.
Only one award paid per payline.
Coinciding wins on different paylines are added. Scatter awards are independent from payline awards and are also added to the total amount paid.
Awards are shown in credits except for the Jackpot, which is shown in currency.
To be eligible for the Jackpot, you must bet max (5 credits bet on each line with all lines bet).
To be eligible for the Chance Win Spin bonus, you must have a bet on all lines.
When you win the Jackpot, a message appears notifying you that customer service will contact you within 24 hours with details of your Jackpot payout. The award verification may take up to 72 hours, and the win will not be reflected in your account balance. You may continue to play or use gamble feature. It will not affect your Jackpot. The Jackpot cannot be gambled.
The amount paid after verification is approximately the amount seen on the Jackpot meter when the win occurs. Potentially, the awarded Jackpot could be somewhat higher because of display delays. The Jackpot paid may also be higher due to meter smoothing, when some meter growth from peak times may be spread across slower periods. In an exceptionally rare case, the award value could be the Jackpot seed amount if your Jackpot winning outcome occurred just after another player's Jackpot win but before the Jackpot meter was able to reset due to this earlier winner.
All applicable taxes and fees in connection with any winnings awarded to you and any other payments to you are your sole responsibility. Winnings cannot be transferred, substituted, or redeemed for any other consideration.
The casino may deactivate this game at any time. If the casino decides to continue the game after a Jackpot is won, the casino is under no obligation to re-seed the Jackpot with the amount of the previous seed or any other amount. In the event that the casino decides to terminate the game, or the game becomes permanently unavailable due to unforeseeable circumstances, the casino holds any funds shown in the Jackpot meter. The casino may increase or decrease the size of the Jackpot award by contributing or removing money at any time.
Jackpot award paid in equal installments. First installment paid upon validation of win. Balance paid in 19 annual installments.
Jackpot represents an increasing top award where the rate of growth is determined and adjusted by the MegaJackpots administrator based on business rules.

Player rolls a 20-sided die, the result of which is added to the Hero Strength to form an attack strength. If the attack strength equals or exceeds the Monster’s defense strength, the monster is vanquished and the player is able to collect the multiplier in the cell and continue on. If the attack strength is not big enough to beat the Monster, play proceeds to the Free Spins Round. There are no monsters in the first level.
In the final level, the monster is the dragon. Whether or not the dragon is defeated, play proceeds to the Free Spins Rounds. However, the player will earn an additional 4x multiplier if successful in vanquishing the dragon.

Dungeon Phase of Bonus
Enter a room with a Monster and battle ensues.
Player rolls a 20-sided die, the result of which is added to the Hero Strength to form an attack strength. If the attack strength equals or exceeds the Monster’s defense strength, the monster is vanquished and the player is able to collect the multiplier in the cell and continue on. If the attack strength is not big enough to beat the Monster, play proceeds to the Free Spins Round. There are no monsters in the first level.
In the final level, the monster is the dragon. Whether or not the dragon is defeated, play proceeds to the Free Spins Rounds. However, the player will earn an additional 4x multiplier if successful in vanquishing the dragon.
Enter a room with a free spin chalice, multiplier treasure chest or extra-strength weapon and the player earns, respectively, the additional free spin(s), multiplier(s) or strength value shown. Enter a room with a stair way and after collecting any free spins, multiplier or strength; player descends to the next lower level. The cell at the bottom of a stairway is always empty. In the lower Dungeon levels, there are usually two or more stairways from the level above. However, you will only ever see the bottom of the stairs you descend and never those of any of the other stairways. There are no centre room stairways.
Monster strength increases the deeper you descend into the Dungeon. A monster in a centre chamber is stronger than any other monster on that level. Even so, there is a small payback advantage to always explore a center room when possible. There is never more than one enchanted weapon per Dungeon. Each of the three heroes has the same odds of winning against the various monsters. Dungeon animations & weapons differ with each of the three player-selectable heroes
Free Spins Phase of Bonus
• Free spins are highly enriched by the addition of Stacked Wilds® to every reel.

• During the free spins bonus, three or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels re-trigger the Fortress Free Spins™ Bonus
• Maximum of 180 free spins can be awarded

London Lad Strikes It Lucky!
London, 6th April, 2009 – Following the success of last year’s poker festival in the city, Virgin Poker held its second Newcastle poker event at Aspers Casino over the weekend. Over 200 poker enthusiasts took part in the exciting two-day live tournament setting sights on the impressive prize pot of over £30,000.
Having won a place at the tournament via a €150 buy-in at Virgin Poker, players at the main event took part in a Texas Hold’em No Limit Freezeout extravaganza to compete for their share of the prize pot. Ross Javis, London based journalist who writes for Poker Player magazine was the chip leader as he entered the final table and maintained his lead throughout the final leg securing him the Virgin Poker festival title and the impressive top prize of £7,000. Kris McLackland from Newcastle put up a good fight and walked away with second place prize money of £5,500.
To add a Virgin twist to the tournament, players in the main event were given the chance to knock-out professional poker opponents whose heads carried bounties of fantastic Virgin giveaways. Prizes included Virgin Rally Driving Days & Virgin Hot Air Ballooning.
For those not lucky enough to win a seat in the main tournament, there were a variety of side events on offer to give everyone the opportunity to get involved - regardless of their poker playing abilities. Practice tables offered ‘live play classes’ for less experienced players, whilst a Wii bowling battle for those who still wanted to prove their competitive streak.
Joe Legge, Poker Manager for Virgin Games Poker, said: “It was great to return to Aspers Casino for a second time and bring the fun of the Virgin Games experience to the people of Newcastle. Local residents, poker professionals and the Virgin Games staff entered into the spirit of the weekend and dressed to impress – outfits included, Newcastle football strip, a Las Vegas show girl and another wore a horse’s head to celebrate the Grand National. It’s all slightly crazy but all part of the fun and what makes the festivals such a great experience!’

Virgin king and Crown Casino king talk shop and Media Man makes a play
Media Man Australia and Casino News Media report Virgin's iGaming arm, Virgin Games aka Virgin Casino, is enjoying a huge comeback which can be attributed to a number of reasons.
New Virgin Games players now receive a 100% sign up bonus, which is of course double the original 50%!
New Virgin Games online slot releases include Battleship - Search & Destroy and MegaJackpots Cleopatra®. Cleopatra and Cleopatra II have long been the most popular games available on Virgin Casino and the merging with the mega popular MegaJackpots® has been an international big hit. Rumours are circulating that Dungeons and Dragons: Fortress of Fortunes will also soon be added to the already awesome Virgin Games portfolio.
Virgin boss, Richard Branson was recently spotted talking shop (or was it small talk? .. unlikely) at the Melbourne Formula One Grand Prix with none other than Australian casino king, James Packer, head of Crown Casino and a number of other casino and lifestyle businesses.
Media and iGaming analyst, Greg Tingle, has long gone on record starting that these two gentlemen might do well to get their heads together and offer a 5 star plus package for the casino whales of the world. They could pick up where Donald Trump dropped the ball. Branson's V Australia and his Virgin empire coupled with Packer's group of casinos in Melbourne, Perth, Macau, Las Vegas and elsewhere, would appear to be an excellent match. Branson is of course a fan of news media coverage whilst Packer has proved to be more media shy. Perhaps that may change if the two were to team up on a win - win venture combining the best of air travel, casinos and accommodation. It could be packaged as an ultimate travel and lifestyle experience for the whale who demands the best! The next best thing to space travel, another dynamic offering from Virgin Enterprises Limited. Tingle has wasted no time in showcasing the photo of Branson and Packer talking shop on the Media Man Australia website and has advised "We're keen to be pro actively involved in a Virgin - Crown campaign, given our proven track record with Virgin Games, Virgin Unite, air travel bookings and casino lifestyle campaigns".
Tingle is the former manager and agent for Crown Casino poker trainer and commentary, Keith "Bendigo" Sloan, so stranger things have happened. In what appears to be a strategic move Tingle has also registered Casino Travel Tourism and looks to be building his own World Casino Directory, a move tipped to compete with the original world famous online casino portal.
More details as they come to hand.

Virgin's Great Marketing Idea Pays Off
A tongue in cheek interpretation of gambler's luck has paid off big-time for online gambling firm
March 16, 2009 (InfoPowa News) -- The always-innovative marketers at online gambling firm Virgin Games.com achieved wide mainstream media -- including television -- coverage as well as online gambling publicity for an ingenious tongue-in-cheek interpretation of the luckiest and unluckiest places in the United Kingdom last week.
Triggering the exercise just before the notoriously unlucky date, a statement from the company commented: "With Friday 13th upon us for the second time already in 2009, those of a slightly superstitious disposition would be advised to take a trip to St.Albans -- according to data from Virgin Games, it's the luckiest place in the whole of the U.K. Residents of Sutton, Brighton and Luton also needn't get worried about Friday 13th as they follow second and third place respectively in the luck stakes!"
The statement went on to reveal that Virgin had analyzed more than 100,000,000 separate wagers, based purely on chance, placed over the past three years in order to create a map of the U.K.’s ‘luckspots’ -- handy advance information for those trying to protect themselves from bad luck on Friday the 13th. It identified the unluckiest spots in the U.K., too -- pointing to Belfast, Perth and Newbury with the advice that residents of those parts should hold on to a horseshoe or rabbit's foot for the duration of the year's unluckiest day.
Simon Burridge, CEO of Virgin Games, added momentum to the drive with an explanation: "Friday 13th falls three times in 2009, so we thought it would be interesting to see whether some regions in the U.K. are luckier than others." We matched the success of our huge database of players against the U.K.’s postcodes, and were surprised at just how much variation there was between regions.
"It’s just a bit of fun, of course -- but if I was at all superstitious I’d be heading to St. Albans this Friday 13th!”
The unusual and date-relevant nature of the story caught the attention of the Britsh media, ensuring wide coverage.
For those who worry when they walk under ladders, smash mirrors or spill salt perhaps a move to St. Albans would deliver more peace of mind, Virgin concluded. "Not only has the suburban district been crowned one of the best places to live in the U.K. -- it was recently selected as the 'Mayfair' spot on the British Cities version of Monopoly -- its residents can also consider themselves the luckiest, over four times more likely to win than residents living in Belfast.
"In St. Albans, a bet of £1 can expect to see an average profit of 83p -- compared to a loss of 60p if the same wager was made over the Irish Sea in Belfast," claimed the online gambling website.
For the superstitious, then, here's Virgin Games' take on the Luckiest and Unluckiest gambling spots in Britain:

March 16, 2009 (InfoPowa News) -- The always-innovative marketers at online gambling firm Virgin Games.com achieved wide mainstream media -- including television -- coverage as well as online gambling publicity for an ingenious tongue-in-cheek interpretation of the luckiest and unluckiest places in the United Kingdom last week.
Triggering the exercise just before the notoriously unlucky date, a statement from the company commented: "With Friday 13th upon us for the second time already in 2009, those of a slightly superstitious disposition would be advised to take a trip to St.Albans -- according to data from Virgin Games, it's the luckiest place in the whole of the U.K. Residents of Sutton, Brighton and Luton also needn't get worried about Friday 13th as they follow second and third place respectively in the luck stakes!"
The statement went on to reveal that Virgin had analyzed more than 100,000,000 separate wagers, based purely on chance, placed over the past three years in order to create a map of the U.K.’s ‘luckspots’ -- handy advance information for those trying to protect themselves from bad luck on Friday the 13th. It identified the unluckiest spots in the U.K., too -- pointing to Belfast, Perth and Newbury with the advice that residents of those parts should hold on to a horseshoe or rabbit's foot for the duration of the year's unluckiest day.
Simon Burridge, CEO of Virgin Games, added momentum to the drive with an explanation: "Friday 13th falls three times in 2009, so we thought it would be interesting to see whether some regions in the U.K. are luckier than others." We matched the success of our huge database of players against the U.K.’s postcodes, and were surprised at just how much variation there was between regions.
"It’s just a bit of fun, of course -- but if I was at all superstitious I’d be heading to St. Albans this Friday 13th!”
The unusual and date-relevant nature of the story caught the attention of the Britsh media, ensuring wide coverage.
For those who worry when they walk under ladders, smash mirrors or spill salt perhaps a move to St. Albans would deliver more peace of mind, Virgin concluded. "Not only has the suburban district been crowned one of the best places to live in the U.K. -- it was recently selected as the 'Mayfair' spot on the British Cities version of Monopoly -- its residents can also consider themselves the luckiest, over four times more likely to win than residents living in Belfast.

Online Casino Reveals Luckiest and Unluckiest Places in the UK
Today being Friday 13th, Virgin Games decided to reveal where and where not to live if you want to strike it lucky, or avoid the bad luck befalling you today.
If you're desperate to avoid it today then pack up your things and head to St. Albans – it's been declared as the luckiest place in the UK by Virgin Games. People from Sutton, Brighton and Luton also needn't get worried about Friday 13th as they follow second and third place respectively in the luck stakes.
"Friday 13th falls three times in 2009, so we thought it would be interesting to see if whether some regions in the UK are luckier than others", said Simon Burridge, CEO of Virgin Games. "We matched the success of our huge database of players against the UK's postcodes, and were surprised at just how much variation there was between regions.

Virgin Casino joins Single Wallet System
11 March 2009
(PRESS RELEASE) -- Virgin Affiliates casino player reports will be unavailable for seven days (starting Thursday, March 12) for essential upgrade work. Tracking will remain unaffected while this is taking place, and all your new players will show up in your reports as soon as the new system in live. Virgin Poker and Virgin Bingo tracking and reporting will work just as usual too.
We apologize for the inconvenience.
As part of this upgrade, please note that the Virgin Casino signup bonus will increase tomorrow (Thursday 12/03/2009) from 100% match Bonus up to £50 to 100% match Bonus up to £100.
We thank you in advance for updating your sites accordingly.
What is happening at Virgin Games?
Virgin Games is historically a marketing company that has promoted gaming services from three different gaming operators (Wagerworks for Casino, Boss Media for Poker and St Minver for Bingo).
We have made the big jump Last November when we officially became an operating company in our own right. That's when Virgin Poker was added to our new shiny single account/single wallet system.
This is now Virgin Casino's turn. From tomorrow onwards your Virgin Casino players will be able to switch seamlessly between Virgin Poker and Virgin Casino play, using the same wallet and same Virgin Games account and qualifying for common bonuses. As an affiliate you will be rewarded for all their Poker and Casino activity without having to promote the products individually.
The circle will be completed in May, when Virgin Bingo joins the party. At this stage Virgin Bingo remains independent from the rest, and you should still promote it as an individual product.
What does it mean for the players?
Becoming an operating company not only means Virgin Casino customer will now be helped by our new in-house call centre from tomorrow, it also means we will own and manage player databases and payment processing systems.
Improved customer experience
Customer service is at the core of the Virgin philosophy. Up to now, this part of our Virgin Casino support business has been in the capable hands of Wagerworks, but the time has now come to get our hands dirty and leverage what Virgin is best known for. Our plan is simple: inject Virgin's tradition of great customer care to the world of online gaming, and make sure our visitors are welcomed, entertained and supported the way they deserve to be.
Centralized, owned and managed player database
Each of our gaming products has required individual registration. Until now it was hard for our players to browse seamlessly through our game offerings. This is about to change. No more Virgin Casino, Virgin Poker or Virgin Bingo players, we're building a happy home where all of our players will become Virgin Games players, regardless of their game-play preferences. Once all our products are integrated, new players will only need to register once, after which they will have access to our full library of games. Whether they prefer slot games, multi-table poker or a quick game of bingo, they'll only ever be a few clicks away from thrilling entertainment.
Centralized, owned and managed new single wallet
Imagine owning three different wallets for your shopping: one to buy bread, one for vegetables, and a third one for milk. Doesn't make much sense, does it? Not to worry: as Bob the builder would put it, our single wallet will fix this! Under the new system, all deposits, awarded bonuses and winnings - regardless of the type of game played - will be safely stored in the new Virgin Games single wallet, which will allow your players to use their funds wherever they want, whenever they want. Just like in real life, only without the queue at the supermarket checkout.
What does it mean for you, the affiliate partner?
From increased cross-product revenues and holistic player reports to across-the board prime commission rates, this brings our affiliates nothing but good news!
More cross-product revenue
By making it easier for our players to get in touch directly with us, register, deposit, withdraw and - most importantly - switch quickly and seamlessly between game types, this is guaranteed to generate increased cross-product revenue for the affiliates sending us players.
Only prime commission rates
We are keeping the 50% welcome rate for 2 months, after which our standard base rates jumps from 30% to 35% flat for both Poker AND Casino, and we are dropping the tiered system.
Virgin Bingo rates remain unchanged at this stage.
Confused? Here's an example :
You are a new affiliate who sends us a new player from a Cleopatra or Elvis banner from your site. Chances are this player likes playing slot machines. As the affiliate who sent us this player, not only will you get 35% (or whatever rate you're on) revenue share on his slots game-play, but you will also - should this player decide to play poker a few days later - get a full 35% on his poker rake. Whatever game the player you sent decides to go for, and whatever the software provider, you will receive prime rates for their play, across all games all the time.
New reporting
Even though most of our promotional strategy through the affiliate system will remain unchanged (we will still provide game specific banners and marketing tools), the boundaries between products and type of players will slowly fade, and your reports will change accordingly.
When is this happening?
Virgin Casino will be integrated tomorrow 6am GMT. From this time onwards everyone you send who registers at Virgin Casino will become a Virgin Games player, earning you automatic commission on both Casino and Poker gameplay.
What is going to change, and how?
Player report
Your new "Virgin Games" Player Report will now show Virgin Games players who have played at Virgin Casino AND Virgin Poker (as opposed to one report for Virgin Casino and another one for Virgin Poker). Virgin Bingo will remain as a separate tab until it joins the party next May.
Filters will be added to the Player Report so you will be able to run it only for Poker or Casino gameplay, or both.
A drop down archive report will also be available for you to check your old stats:
- pre Virgin Casino integration - taking place tomorrow,
- pre Poker integration (i.e. before 19th November 2008, but that's already available in our system)
It might get a bit confusing at first but you will soon be able to make sense of it all. In any case, help is - as always - just a click away: affiliates@virgingames.com.
Snapshot report: unchanged.
Creatives report: unchanged.
Payment report : unchanged.
Marketing tools
Important: Virgin Casino signup bonus is changing from 100% match bonus up to £50 to 100% match bonus up to £100. Make sure you modify our bonus information on your sites accordingly.
Virgin Casino Banners will be automatically updated with the new bonus, nothing for you to do here (unless you host the banners yourself, then read the end of this email).
Casino Bonus aside, no other change, each product will be promoted individually, the only difference is that a player coming from a Virgin Poker banner could make most of your commission on Virgin Casino without you having anything to do about it. Groovy!
Tracking
There will be no change to our trackers. We take pride in the backwards compatibility of our system, so you will not need to do anything when switchover happens tomorrow. You can keep on using the same tracking links you've always used, as we took care of plugging them into our new database.
Graphics, Banners, Branding
New structure generally involves new branding, and we won't be the odd ones out: new logos, new messages and imagery are part of the reshuffling, and that's exciting news. Again you will not need to move a finger. We'll make sure our banners, logos and other graphic materials are overwritten with the flashy new version, so the updated versions will show automatically on your site.
Note: if you are hosting the banners locally, it is your responsibility to get the updated version from our site.
We remind you that Virgin Casino will increase signup bonus from 100% up to £50 to 100% up to £100. Make sure you pick up and host the new banners!
We understand it may be more practical / reassuring for some affiliates to host the banners themselves; but if you do you will be responsible for the extra work that goes with this decision, i.e. you will need to manually update all of your outdated banners. This is really important as the last thing anyone wants is a visitor getting to our site through an interest for an outdated promotion. This is as bad PR for us as it is for you (the affiliate), as we will have to apologize to the player and explain that you should have updated your site and didn't.

The circle will be completed in May, when Virgin Bingo joins the party. At this stage Virgin Bingo remains independent from the rest, and you should still promote it as an individual product.
What does it mean for the players?
Becoming an operating company not only means Virgin Casino customer will now be helped by our new in-house call centre from tomorrow, it also means we will own and manage player databases and payment processing systems.
Improved customer experience
Customer service is at the core of the Virgin philosophy. Up to now, this part of our Virgin Casino support business has been in the capable hands of Wagerworks, but the time has now come to get our hands dirty and leverage what Virgin is best known for. Our plan is simple: inject Virgin's tradition of great customer care to the world of online gaming, and make sure our visitors are welcomed, entertained and supported the way they deserve to be.
Centralized, owned and managed player database
Each of our gaming products has required individual registration. Until now it was hard for our players to browse seamlessly through our game offerings. This is about to change. No more Virgin Casino, Virgin Poker or Virgin Bingo players, we're building a happy home where all of our players will become Virgin Games players, regardless of their game-play preferences. Once all our products are integrated, new players will only need to register once, after which they will have access to our full library of games. Whether they prefer slot games, multi-table poker or a quick game of bingo, they'll only ever be a few clicks away from thrilling entertainment.
Centralized, owned and managed new single wallet
Imagine owning three different wallets for your shopping: one to buy bread, one for vegetables, and a third one for milk. Doesn't make much sense, does it? Not to worry: as Bob the builder would put it, our single wallet will fix this! Under the new system, all deposits, awarded bonuses and winnings - regardless of the type of game played - will be safely stored in the new Virgin Games single wallet, which will allow your players to use their funds wherever they want, whenever they want. Just like in real life, only without the queue at the supermarket checkout.
What does it mean for you, the affiliate partner?
From increased cross-product revenues and holistic player reports to across-the board prime commission rates, this brings our affiliates nothing but good news!
More cross-product revenue
By making it easier for our players to get in touch directly with us, register, deposit, withdraw and - most importantly - switch quickly and seamlessly between game types, this is guaranteed to generate increased cross-product revenue for the affiliates sending us players.
Only prime commission rates
We are keeping the 50% welcome rate for 2 months, after which our standard base rates jumps from 30% to 35% flat for both Poker AND Casino, and we are dropping the tiered system.
Virgin Bingo rates remain unchanged at this stage.
Confused? Here's an example :
You are a new affiliate who sends us a new player from a Cleopatra or Elvis banner from your site. Chances are this player likes playing slot machines. As the affiliate who sent us this player, not only will you get 35% (or whatever rate you're on) revenue share on his slots game-play, but you will also - should this player decide to play poker a few days later - get a full 35% on his poker rake. Whatever game the player you sent decides to go for, and whatever the software provider, you will receive prime rates for their play, across all games all the time.
New reporting
Even though most of our promotional strategy through the affiliate system will remain unchanged (we will still provide game specific banners and marketing tools), the boundaries between products and type of players will slowly fade, and your reports will change accordingly.
When is this happening?
Virgin Casino will be integrated tomorrow 6am GMT. From this time onwards everyone you send who registers at Virgin Casino will become a Virgin Games player, earning you automatic commission on both Casino and Poker gameplay.
What is going to change, and how?
Player report
Your new "Virgin Games" Player Report will now show Virgin Games players who have played at Virgin Casino AND Virgin Poker (as opposed to one report for Virgin Casino and another one for Virgin Poker). Virgin Bingo will remain as a separate tab until it joins the party next May.
Filters will be added to the Player Report so you will be able to run it only for Poker or Casino gameplay, or both.
A drop down archive report will also be available for you to check your old stats:
- pre Virgin Casino integration - taking place tomorrow,
- pre Poker integration (i.e. before 19th November 2008, but that's already available in our system)
It might get a bit confusing at first but you will soon be able to make sense of it all. In any case, help is - as always - just a click away: affiliates@virgingames.com.
Snapshot report: unchanged.
Creatives report: unchanged.
Payment report : unchanged.
Marketing tools
Important: Virgin Casino signup bonus is changing from 100% match bonus up to £50 to 100% match bonus up to £100. Make sure you modify our bonus information on your sites accordingly.
Virgin Casino Banners will be automatically updated with the new bonus, nothing for you to do here (unless you host the banners yourself, then read the end of this email).
Casino Bonus aside, no other change, each product will be promoted individually, the only difference is that a player coming from a Virgin Poker banner could make most of your commission on Virgin Casino without you having anything to do about it. Groovy!
Tracking
There will be no change to our trackers. We take pride in the backwards compatibility of our system, so you will not need to do anything when switchover happens tomorrow. You can keep on using the same tracking links you've always used, as we took care of plugging them into our new database.
Graphics, Banners, Branding
New structure generally involves new branding, and we won't be the odd ones out: new logos, new messages and imagery are part of the reshuffling, and that's exciting news. Again you will not need to move a finger. We'll make sure our banners, logos and other graphic materials are overwritten with the flashy new version, so the updated versions will show automatically on your site.
Note: if you are hosting the banners locally, it is your responsibility to get the updated version from our site.
We remind you that Virgin Casino will increase signup bonus from 100% up to £50 to 100% up to £100. Make sure you pick up and host the new banners!
We understand it may be more practical / reassuring for some affiliates to host the banners themselves; but if you do you will be responsible for the extra work that goes with this decision, i.e. you will need to manually update all of your outdated banners. This is really important as the last thing anyone wants is a visitor getting to our site through an interest for an outdated promotion. This is as bad PR for us as it is for you (the affiliate), as we will have to apologize to the player and explain that you should have updated your site and didn't.

Virgin Games Scoops Affiliate Prize At 2nd Annual CAP Awards
Virgin Games' Head of Affiliates, Pierrick Leveque, scooped the prestigious 'Best Bingo Affiliate Manager' prize at last week's annual CAP (Casino Affiliate Programs) Awards. The black tie event, which was held at London's fashionable Truman Brewery, recognises excellence in the iGaming affiliate market amongst operators, vendors and affiliates themselves. Virgin Games also gained nominations in four other categories: Best Poker Affiliate Program; Best Casino Affiliate Program; Best Overall Affiliate Program; and Best Overall Affiliate Manager.
London, U.K. (PRWEB) February 6, 2009 -- Virgin Games' (http://www.virgingames.com) Head of Affiliates, Pierrick Leveque, scooped the prestigious 'Best Bingo Affiliate Manager' prize at last week's annual CAP (Casino Affiliate Programs) Awards. The black tie event, which was held at London's fashionable Truman Brewery, recognises excellence in the iGaming affiliate market amongst operators, vendors and affiliates themselves.
Virgin Games also gained nominations in four other categories: Best Poker Affiliate Program; Best Casino Affiliate Program; Best Overall Affiliate Program; and Best Overall Affiliate Manager.
Virgin Games has worked hard to develop and improve our Virgin Bingo affiliation this year, so we're delighted that our efforts have been acknowledged
"Virgin Games has worked hard to develop and improve our Virgin Bingo affiliation this year, so we're delighted that our efforts have been acknowledged," said Pierrick after collecting the award in front of 400 of the most influential members of the iGaming industry. "The CAP community is a driving force in the gaming affiliate business, and to be selected by the affiliate partners we are working with makes this an award win we're particularly proud of.
"Virgin Games has ambitious growth plans for 2009 - most importantly, the implementation of a single wallet / single sign-on player system - and our affiliates will be rewarded for the loyalty they have shown to our brand. We genuinely value their support."
The CAP Awards are particularly recognised in the industry because they strive to represent the views of affiliates as accurately as possible. The nomination process taps directly into the affiliate community, with 8,000 members polled via www.casinoaffiliateprograms.com and www.pokeraffiliateprograms.com.
The Virgin Games' Affiliate program is run by Virgin Games, a wholly owned subsidiary of Virgin.com Ltd. Virgin Games Affiliates has been in operation since 2005, and offers affiliates the reporting and marketing tools they need in order to promote Virgin Games services efficiently and effectively.

Man wins £96,500 prize pot thanks to Virgin Poker
Blackpool pier employee wins £96,500 prize pot thanks to Virgin Poker
London, 21st November 2008 - Scotsman Brian Clarke, aged 57 from Blackpool won a life-changing £96,500 prize pot at the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour semi-final that took place at the G Casino in Blackpool from 13th - 16th November 2008. Brian Clarke gained free entry into the tournament by qualifying online at www.virginpoker.com via the Virgin VIP club.
341 poker enthusiasts from all over the UK took part in the 4-day live poker tournament and battled it out for a share of the prize pool. Brian Clarke bobbed and weaved his way to winning the £96,500 first prize with a pair of queens whilst runner-up Zachary Ford took home the runners-up prize of £56,250 with an ace and king. And if winning £96,500 wasn’t enough, Brian will also get the chance to compete in the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour grand final taking place in London from 27th-30th November and the champion of champions Grosvenor UK Poker Tour taking place next month.
Brian Clarke from Blackpool said: “I’m not a big time poker player and have never taken part in any large live tourneys before so when the Virgin VIP Club started offering online players the opportunity to qualify for high level tournaments via www.virginpoker.com I jumped at the chance. When I laid down the last card and I knew I had won it was incredibly emotional - I think the key to success is patience, focus and a large amount of luck! I plan to pay off my mortgage with the winnings and enjoy anything remaining with my daughter and two sons.”
Joe Legge, Poker Manager for Virgin Poker, said: “Our Virgin VIP Club programme gives our players great added value, offering small time players, like Brian the chance to play with top poker players at high level games. We’re thrilled for Brian and will be rooting for him at the grand final. ”
