Vodafone bets on pocket casinos

Vodafone customers will shortly be able to gamble on their phones thanks to a deal with Gaming Corporation - the owners of gambling.com and casino.co.uk.

The service will launch with 11 games, including blackjack, roulette, stud poker, slot machines, and scratch cards.

The games will be age-restricted using Vodafone's Content Control system. Player deposits will be limited to valid credit card transactions. The company will set maximum daily bets per player and offer advice on cash gambling to encourage responsible use.

Revenue from the service will be divided between Vodafone and Gaming Corp.
