Bingo.com has finally paid off it's name in full. Bingo.com is probably one of the most valuable website names online. Bingo.com first bought the name back in 1999 for $1.1 million from Bingo Inc.
However, the price included an agreement to make ongoing payments to Bingo Inc, at 4% of gross revenues for the next 100 years. Bingo.com has now came to an agreement to pay off the remainder of these payments for $900k in stock.
As a result, the original owner, Bingo Inc, now owns around 30% of the Bingo.com company.
Was this a good deal? Probably, for both parties. Bingo,Inc was pretty wise to retain a future cut in payments, and has now ended up with almost 1/3 of the company.
Bingo.com has the security of full ownership of this valuable domain. The site has almost 2 million members and has recently moved to the UniBet software platform.
