Facebook Will No Longer Offer Real Money Bingo, Slots Friendzy App

London-based operator Gamesys has informed its players that Bingo & Slots Friendzy will no longer be available on the social network according to eGaming Review Magazine.

The app was launched just over a year ago.  Gambling911.com was unable to immediately confirm the reason for ending the relationship between the software provider and Facebook.  Gamesys casino operator Jackpotjoy ran the app.

The real money platform was initially available only in the United Kingdom, offering community progressive jackpots and a chance to win free bingo tickets.

At the time, Jackpotjoy Managing Director Michael Saunders said: “As the UK's leading online Instant Win and Bingo operator we are committed to extending our products to a wider adult audience. In this vein we’ve reinvented our exclusive Bingo and Slots games to appeal to the UK Facebook community. This marks an exciting turning point for the online gaming industry and a milestone for the Gamesys business”.

The move could cast doubts on whether Facebook has the ability to make a serious impact in the real money online gambling sector.

Facebook shares were down nearly 1% on Friday’s late morning (Eastern Time) trading.
