Online Bingo
How do you chat during games of online bingo?
The web's premium online bingo parlours contain split screen games. In other words, half the screen contains a digital bingo game, while the other half of your screen contains a chat box (similar to messenger). Once you're a member of your favourite site, you'll be able to make friends and chat to other member during games by simply typing in the box. You can select private messaging with one or more of your friends, people you want to be your friends :), or join in the mass free for all!
Mastering the bingo lingo and making friends is the key to really getting the bingo buzz - plus, it also enables you to join in the bonus chat games (card games, trivia, brain teasers) which payout in free bingo credits for hours of free gaming!
How do you play & win at online bingo?
Online bingo parlours either offer 90 Ball Bingo, 75 Ball Bingo or preferably - a choice of both the UK style 90 and the American 75 game. Either way - the basic aim of the games remain very similar. Every time you buy a bingo ticket - the bingo software creates a completely randomised set of numbers. So - even if you play with 50 bingo tickets in every game...the chances of an identical ticket are virtually zero!
Your aim is to mark off the numbers that match those drawn by the bingo spinner. If you match enough numbers to form a winning combo - you win a cash reward! 90 Ball combos are generally for 1-line, 2-lines and Full House jackpots, while the American game often delivers whacky combos and game card shapes!
Most bingo websites will automatically indicate when you have a winning card - so if you miss a couple of numbers (probably because you're new to the game or chatting away!)......you'll still get alerted to the win! What's more, you can use auto-daub options to let the computer mark you card - just sit back, chat and relax in style!
How much can you win playing online bingo?
Bingo is a game of luck - so while everyone has a chance of winning with every ticket, some gamers get luckier than others. You're also likely to go through hot and cold gaming sessions - but remember to always keep smiling! If you're one of the really lucky bingo players, you can win big progressive bingo jackpots worth thousands. At the other end of the scale, low level bingo wins can deliver enough to buy a another session's worth of bingo tickets. Bingo payouts happen frequently, but their value depends on factors including ticket price, game type and parlour. Most long-term gamers manage to enjoy some nice medium sized payouts.

Are bingo websites the same as online casinos?

Hundreds of people are signing-up every week - so you definitely won't be the only newbie! However, many online bingo parlours have mini-casinos offering video slots and classic, real-feel casino games.
