June 24 - Moneyboookers, a United Kingdom based online gambling
payment provider has reported that it expects to achieve 1 million player
accounts by July this year. The company has seen significant growth off the back
of the need for alternate payment mechanisms in the online gambling sector.
Moneybookers is owned by the same group as Gamebookers, an online sports book
operator. Moneybookers has been in business for just under four years.
The report is in line with the success seen by its competitors, FireOne and
NETeller, both whom have recently listed in London..
NETeller, based in the Isle of Man, is continuing its unprecedented growth
and currently has over 1.5 million members. Neteller reported quarter 1 profits
of over US$18 million.
Neteller has been a success story on the London Stock Exchange's AIM
(Alternative Investment Market) this year and has doubled its value since
listing.
FireOne, a Canadian company that owns the Firepay electronic wallet
service, has seen enormous growth since listing at the start of June this year
and has traded as high as 320p after listing at 241p.
