Zynga Poker Now On Snapchat
By Brian Cullingworth, Last updated May 18, 2017
Decade-old free-play poker app now available on social media platform
Veteran US games developer Zynga has announced the launch of its popular ten-year-old free-play poker app on social media platform Snapchat, making the Texas Hold’em based app available to the platform’s reportedly 158 million daily users.
The app is available in iOS and Android formats.
Snapchat is the latest social media targeted by Zynga, which has games on platforms like Yahoo, MySpace and Facebook.
Despite its longevity, Zynga Poker continues to be popular, with independent online poker monitor Pokerscout reporting that over the past week it has averaged 38,500 daily players. The app is Zynga’s third biggest revenue generator, behind the company’s social slots product and the ever popular Farmville.
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.
