                              ("IGH" or "the Group")

 IGH signs advertising agreement with MSN and announces exclusive sponsorship of
                    MSN Fantasy Football during the World Cup

Interactive Gaming Holdings Plc (AIM:IGH), the online sports betting and gaming
operator, is pleased to announce that it has signed its first online sponsorship
agreement with MSN to drive traffic to its Premier Bet website and increase
brand awareness.

Under the advertising agreement, Premier Bet will run 4 banners on the fantasy
football section of MSN's website. These promotional incentives will appear in
the daily email sent out to all of MSN's fantasy football registered users
throughout the World Cup.

Premier Bet has agreed the exclusive sponsorship deal with the MSN Fantasy
Football site over the World Cup which allows MSN's users the opportunity to put
their knowledge and management skills to the test by picking an ultimate fantasy
team for the World Cup, using players and managers from all the participating
countries. Once a team has been selected, it will be entered into a competition
and compete with all other registered teams for the winning prize of a Toshiba
37" Freeview LCD Television. Registration for MSN's fantasy football is free.

Commenting on the sponsorship, Thomas Taule, Chairman and Chief Executive of
Interactive Gaming Holdings, said: "To date the Group has been focused on, and
invested significantly in, the implementation of its infrastructures. The Group
is now in a position to begin its marketing activities and this deal with MSN
represents IGH's first major marketing drive."

"The World Cup is an extremely significant betting event and the Group intends
to exploit this through the exclusive sponsorship of MSN Fantasy Football. This
agreement provides an excellent advertising opportunity through strategic banner
advertising on MSN's website and further advertising on player newsletters which
will increase brand awareness and drive additional traffic to the Group's
websites."

Katy Adelson, Digital Marketing Manager at MSN UK said, "We are delighted that
Interactive Gaming Holdings has chosen MSN for their first online sponsorship
agreement. The ultimate fantasy team competition is a great way to encourage new
users to MSN.co.uk during the World Cup period."
