MocoSpace gets 800 free Greystripe games

Second such deal in a week for ad-funded firm

MocoSpace gets 800 free Greystripe games
It feels like only a couple of days since we were reporting on Greystripe's last deal to distribute its catalogue of ad-funded mobile games through a mobile social network.

Oh, that's because it was.

Yes, having announced its deal with the MeYou social network earlier this week, Greystripe has another partner. It's MocoSpace, a mobile social network with more than 2.5 million members.

Greystripe is running the Downloadable Games section on MocoSpace, offering more than 800 titles from the likes of Digital Chocolate, Hands-On Mobile, and Vivendi Games Mobile.

Once, we knew Greystripe mainly for its own ad-funded portal, GameJump. However, it seems the partnership side of its business is now a key way of distributing ad-funded games – its 45 partners apparently account for 85 per cent of the company's daily downloads.
