Electronic Game Card, Inc. (OTCBB:EGMI), the creator of the Electronic GameCard, today reported that Aspers Group Limited has signed an agreement to use EGMI's Electronic GameCards for a promotion at its casino in Newcastle during the current fourth quarter.
Aspers Newcastle which opened in October 2005, is located in 'The Gate', a large, modern leisure complex in the heart of the city. Aspers at the Gate is the market leading gaming venue in the north east of England and is one of the U.K.'s largest and most successful casinos, with over 45,000 square feet of space. It offers American roulette, blackjack, three card poker and Punto Banco as well as 110 slot machines with jackpots from EUR500 to EUR4000. There are also 60 automated roulette terminals that are linked to the live tables and a busy 150 player poker room which holds tournaments almost daily. Other facilities include an upscale restaurant, several bars, a mini-spa and a VIP Club.
Aspers is in the process of building and developing a number of further casinos in prime sites in chosen markets in the U.K., such as Swansea, Northampton, Bournemouth and elsewhere. Aspers is also competing for a number of the new casino licenses to be created under the UK government's recent legislative modernization.
A spokesperson for Electronic Game Card, Inc. commented, "We are delighted that Aspers has become the first U.K. casino operator to use our Electronic GameCards in a promotion. The innovative application of the GameCards underlines the dynamic approach undertaken by Aspers in its marketing and promotions.
For Electronic GameCards this order continues the current success in the casino sector as we are now receiving continued interest from this significant global market."
