End Of The Road For Paddy Power's Social Gaming Site?

By Brian Cullingworth, Last updated Aug 22, 2014

BetDash appears to be on the way out

Online media and forum reports from players suggest that BetDash, a social gaming venture by online and land gambling group Paddy Power, may be on the way out.
The reports indicate that the BetDash.com website has been 'down for scheduled maintenance' for several weeks, presumably whilst the betting company reviews its social gaming approach.
Launched in 2012, BetDash gave prizes to users who made accurate sports predictions, and the site was actively promoted across the group; however earlier this year group management intimated that it intended to review and possibly revamp its social gaming initiative, suggesting that its performance had not been entirely satisfactory.

Brian Cullingworth

Infopowa news was a staple of Casinomeister’s news from 2000 until 2019. Brian Cullingworth was the main writer, contributor, and was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever known involved in the online casino industry.

We first met in January 2001 at the ICE in London where I observed him going booth to booth interviewing online casino, software, and licensing jurisdiction representatives. Brian was also heavily involved with our forum as “Jetset“, he was involved as an informal consultant to eCOGRA, the OPA, and was a player advocate who assisted countless aggrieved players with his connections to industry folks. He also published “Casino Cautions” via Infopowa news for quite a number of years. These can be found in our news archives.

His passing in February 2019 was a dark day for us. He will be forever missed.
