Cometa Games Launches Arcadia Mobile Gambling Platform

Comprehensive Casino System For Mobile Phone Gaming

February 17th. Mobile gambling specialist Cometa Games today launched its ArcadiaTM casino system, a comprehensive system for the provision and management of gambling game on mobile phones.

The ArcadiaTM system's simple and secure front-end allows users to register their personal information and payment details before selecting and downloading gambling games direct to their mobile phone handset via text message. The ArcadiaTM back-end system enables secure provision, management and tracking of multiple mobile gambling transactions.

For companies planning to enter the mobile gambling market ArcadiaTM operates as a stand-alone solution, providing a simple, standard entry-point into the mobile games sector as a turnkey solution or white label gambling site. ArcadiaTM also incorporates an affiliate tracking system, which allows the platform to track players which enter ArcadiaTM through affiliated sites and automatically awards a percentage of revenue generated to that site. This is an extremely flexible system which ensures companies using ArcadiaTM can quickly and effectively build awareness and a community of active players.

Gambling on mobile phones is predicted to be one of the key drivers of mobile entertainment in the next five years reaching approximately $6 billion by 2008* , eclipsing video games and rivaling erotica in terms of revenue and popularity. Cometa Games is taking the lead in the early stages of the market with its focus on security , simplicity and fun. Rob Anderson, the managing director of Cometa is a veteran of the gambling industry and former games designer.

Cometa is a game developer as well as a technology provider. The company has created a wide range of gambling games which have been designed specifically provide a compelling and enjoyable experience for users. The company's technology platform, ArcadiaTM reflect this ethos, making the registration, delivery and gambling transactions as transparent to the user as possible. Cometa's technology ensures users can play at their own speed without waiting for multiple connections and transactions.

"ArcadiaTM is a comprehensive and sophisticated solution for companies wishing to move into the mobile gambling market, says Rob Anderson. "It provides an accessible and simple entry point into a very rapidly evolving market allowing users to sign up and access games quickly and securely. Many companies are interested in this area of mobile entertainment but do not have the resources or expertise to seriously consider it. Cometa provides a total technology solution, with back-end provisioning and management, front-end sign up and game delivery as well as game design and development. 2005 promises to bring mobile gambling into the mass-market and with the launch of ArcadiaTM Cometa Games is holding all the aces."
