Leading developer and operator of mobile gambling services, Zero36, has announced the launch of its fully integrated real money Mobile Casino service, that will be available for O2's I-mode users in the UK.

O2 subscribers that are over the age of 18 will be able to join the Zero36 mobile casino service through the mobile operator's I-mode portal and play for fun or real money depending on preference.

The new service is the last addition to the company's I-mode services and in the near future, a similar service for fun will be launched in Hong Kong, in Chinese.

O2's new I-mode service offers Microgaming's Casino classics, including European Roulette, Blackjack, Video Poker, Keno, Scratch Card, various Slot Machines and 3 progressive jackpot machines that use Microgaming's Jackpot Network system.

"Zero36 was one of the first companies to develop mobile casino services for i-mode handsets," says Zero36 CEO, Sharon Tal, "and we are the first to give O2 i-mode users in the UK a chance to become millionaires by playing Microgaming's Progressive Jackpot games such as 'Major Millions' and 'Fruit Fiesta' using i-mode mobile handsets."

With six years of mobile gaming experience, Zero36 is already specialized in developing and publishing and has so far released more than 30 mobile casino applications delivered as play for fun or prizes as well as real money games. Through its agreements with many leading international mobile networks, it can offer its games to millions of WAP and i-mode users worldwide.
