NEWS!!! Wednesday July 28, 10:58 pm Eastern Time Company Press Release Bingo.com Announces International Game Goes Live TALLAHASSEE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 28, 1999--Bingo.com Inc. (OTC BB:BIGR - news), the Internet Company which is developing the world's first bingo-based entertainment/lifestyle portal and on-line bingo game, announced today that the Company is now accepting wagering from all permitted jurisdictions. Individuals from jurisdictions where Internet gaming is prohibited will not be able to wager or have access to a live game. Those individuals will not be able to purchase credits on their charge cards and therefore will not be allowed to play. Bingo.com's President, Shane Murphy, commented: ''The management team at Bingo.com has worked around the clock to make sure that our commitment of going live before the end July was met. I am very proud of our employees as well as our software engineering team members as they have been successful in launching the international game ahead of schedule''. ''Our international wagering bingo game is the Company's first revenue generating product in the marketplace. The Company will now be able to turn its creative focus towards the development of its free (non-wagering) Bingo game and the ongoing evolution of its portal site.'' As previously announced, an on-line and off-line advertising campaign to promote the international wagering bingo game is scheduled to begin in Europe in August.
