New Five Year Agreement with Channel 5

NetPlay TV plc (AIM: NPT), the interactive gaming company, is pleased to announce that it has signed a new five year broadcast agreement with Channel 5.

This new agreement follows the strong performance that NetplayTV's Supercasino.com brand has illustrated for the past two years on the channel.

NetplayTV has proven that using TV as a customer acquisition tool is a successful model, and this new agreement adds further advertising presence on Channel 5, in addition to its current 23.5 hours teleshopping airtime per week.

Charles Butler, CEO of NetPlayTV, said:

"NetPlayTV's relationship with Channel 5 continues to go from strength to strength and this new five year agreement is further testament to this.

 

"TV has continued to perform well in terms of both the acquisition of new customers and increasing existing customer loyalty. This new agreement will provide continuity of access to a key source of customer acquisitions, both via the web as well as directly into iPhone, which is a channel to market where we are experiencing significant growth.

 

"This milestone will enable the Group to further develop its position as the UK's largest interactive TV gaming Company."

 

Nick Bampton, Commercial Sales Director from Channel 5, added:

"We are really pleased with how our partnership is progressing with NetPlayTV, and the results that their show has produced so far.

 

"We are looking forward to growing the Supercasino brand together and creating further value in the relationship between the two companies."
