Though Unibet is one of the companies known to offer a much wider variety of gambling products than just online casino offerings, the most recent report summarizing the fourth quarter of last year shows just how large a part internet gambling played in their financial success for 2009. The number of players that frequented Unibet for their internet gambling menu jumped more than 136 percent to an impressive 5,372 gamblers, up from just a quarter earlier at 2,281. The company’s chief executive officer, Petter Nylander released a statement with the fourth quarter results, more than pleased with the final numbers.

“We really saw a breakthrough during the second half of 2009 after we re-launched our iPhone version during Q3 this year,” said Nylander. “The customers enjoyed it and used it at numbers we can speak about. We think the mobile channel for ourselves and the industry will become a channel with some prominence for the future.” The leader of the firm said that much of the success had been attributed to the growth and success of smart phones, correlating the popularity of convenience with the success of their mobile gambling division.

The mobile services for Unibet are provided in part by their technological partner, Mobenga. Other significant statistics included in the report included their Gross Winnings Revenue, which was up to £42.1 million from £34.9 million in 2009’s last quarter. Their full year totals were not as impressive as Uniben managed to bank £32.8 million in profits from operations for 2009, just down from 2008’s £36.5 million. The firm is still managing to increase their customer list, however, as the number of active users at the end of the year was marked at 365,865, compared to last year’s closing data at 292,168.
