Playing bingo online, players can make use of optional features which make playing the game easier, such as auto-daub. Auto-daub automatically marks off the numbers on cards as they are called, so players don’t have to. Most software providers support other gaming features as “Best Card Sorting” and “Best Card Highlighting” where players cards are sorted and highlighted by closest to bingo. Some of these features are designed to free players to enjoy the communal pleasantries of the chat features.
There is variety among the different kinds of bingo games that can be played. For example, some inexpensive game rooms appeal to the player who may want to play for just a 10 cents or 10 pence; some bingo games only allow players to purchase the same amount of cards so they are not competing against the “high rollers” out there who buy many cards for the same game.
Some operators require players to download free software to play their games. Other operators use JavaScript or Adobe Flash based games that allow you to play immediately online after registering a player account.
To win the largest prizes, users must fund an account, but free bingo games are also available offering players a way to win smaller amounts of money with no risk of gambling. Some online bingo sites offer no deposit bingo with sandbox play. This will allow the player to get the hang of the system without a cash investment, but no monetary value can be gained.
Most sites accept a standard range of e-wallet funding options. Sites often provide a number of incentives to deposit, including matching bonuses where the site will reward depositing players by matching a percentage of their deposit.
Recently, the USA government has passed laws that limit banks ability to process credit cards for US citizens. The laws prevent US based payment providers from taking payments for online gaming.
One of the earliest known online bingo games, launched in 1996, was a free bingo game called “Bingo Zone”.[1] To play, members had to provide demographic information; in turn, members would receive targeted ads based on the demographics provided.[2] Another early pioneer for free online bingo was Uproar, which launched Bingo Blitz in 1998.[3]
There are two types of bingo played around the world. North America plays 75-ball bingo on a 5×5 card with the centre square usually marked ‘free’. In the UK, parts of Europe, Australia and parts of South America they play a 90-ball game, marked on a 9×3 card. Both types of bingo are prominent online.
The desired pattern which players aim to achieve in 75 ball can vary dramatically, from a simple single line to more complicated themed patterns. The aim of the game, however, is always the same: to mark off the numbers to achieve the desired pattern. Speed Bingo is a variation played exactly the same, but numbers are simply called much quicker.
In 90-ball bingo, each card has three horizontal lines and nine columns. Each line contains five numbers, meaning each card has 15 numbers. The first column contains numbers from 1-9, the second column contains numbers from 10-19, the third column contains numbers from 20-29, all the way through to the final column which contains numbers from 80-90.
A game of 90 ball bingo will normally be played in three stages: one line, two lines and Full House. In a “one line” game players need to mark a complete horizontal line across one card (i.e., 5 numbers marked). The aim of a ‘two lines’ game is to complete any two marked lines horizontally across one card (i.e., 10 numbers marked). Finally a “Full House” means all the numbers marked off on one card (all 15 numbers), as in a regular coverall game. The prize split differs for each stage of the game. The prize will be shared equally among the winners if there is more than one. The Full House is always the largest prize in any one game.
Online bingo is the game of bingo played on the Internet. It is estimated that the global gross gaming yield of bingo (excluding the United States) was US$0.5 billion in 2006, and it is forecasted to grow to $1 billion by 2010.[1]
Unlike balls used in regular bingo halls, online bingo sites use a random number generator. Most bingo halls also offer links to online poker and casino offerings as the patrons are often in the target market. One notable feature of online bingo is the chat functionality. Bingo sites strive to foster a sense of community and interaction between players as this helps customer retention.
History
One of the earliest known online bingo games, launched in 1996, was a free bingo game called “Bingo Zone”.[2] To play, members had to provide demographic information; in turn, members would receive targeted ads based on the demographics provided.[3] Another early pioneer for free online bingo was Uproar, which launched Bingo Blitz in 1998.[4]
Getting started
Some operators require players to download free software to play their games. Other operators use JavaScript or Adobe Flash based games that allow you to play immediately online after registering a player account.
To win the largest prizes, users must fund an account, but free bingo games are also available offering players a way to win smaller amounts of money with no risk of gambling. Some online bingo sites offer no deposit bingo with sandbox play. This will allow the player to get the hang of the system without a cash investment, but no monetary value can be gained.

Playing

Auto-daub automatically marks off the numbers on cards as they are called, so players don’t have to. Most software providers support other gaming features as “Best Card Sorting” and “Best Card Highlighting” where players cards are sorted and highlighted by closest to bingo.

Chat
Whereas in land-based bingo where talking is strictly forbidden during a game, it is actively encouraged in online bingo. Chat functions as an effective retention tool, aimed especially at the predominantly female audience.
It is customary for players to congratulate winning players with comments like “WTG,” or “Way To Go.” Much like instant messaging, online bingo chat communities have their own acronyms which are often used in replace of often repeated sentences.
CM stands for “chat monitor”. (This can also stand for chat moderator; in some other sites you may have “CH” which stands for chat host.) The CM works for the bingo site as the host of a chat room and plays a role in welcoming players and creating a friendly and communal atmosphere in the room. This includes, but is not limited to, congratulating players when they win a game as well as playing chat games in-between bingo. Most sites have a chat protocol known as chat etiquette or chatiquette.
Popular chat games include Odds and Evens, Dodgeball, Roulette, At the Races, Birthday Bingo, Lucky Gem, Keno and Bullseye.
Bingo networks
There are a number of sites that will have the same promotions, similar graphics, the same bingo rooms and the same CMs. This occurs because they are part of a bingo “network”. In simple terms, this means a number of different sites (or “front ends”) are playing with the same numbers for the same jackpot (i.e., the same back end). Multiple sites act as doorways to a single game, leading to larger pools of players in chat rooms and more sizeable pots to win, in an arrangement known as White Label Gaming. While the bingo software is the same, the brand owners are responsible for the look and feel of the site, together with any promotions they wish to offer. This is an important feature of online bingo in that it is critical that any site have enough players to have a decent sized game. Hence, the bingo network that “shares” players.
Online bingo in the UK
Bingo is the most popular group leisure activity in the UK and the second most popular individual leisure activity. It is the most popular leisure activity for women between 20 and 25 years old.[5] The UK market has seen an influx in big brand names launching bingo games on their already established websites. Huge brand names such as Yahoo!, Virgin, AOL UK and most recently MSN UK are all now associated with the UK online bingo market.[6] Gala Bingo the biggest land based bingo operator in the UK is also now online.
The prevalence of the game Bingo online has dramatically increased the number of online gamers and many online gaming community members in the UK have taken up to start learning and participating in bingo. For those interested in knowing the popularity the game has reached in the UK, here are a few details: As per the statistics, each person in the country draws about 24 numbers each minute. The game lasts around five minutes in an average full game in the country and the time a person takes to figure out his ticket has won is approximately 30 seconds. There are a reported 700 bingo halls where frequent bingo games and tournaments are held regularly.
There is a supposed three hundred million bingo players all over the country and the number is still growing. And the most common thing that anyone can guess, PayPal is used as the payment processing service for playing bingo online and to pay online too. Most users use the service and the funds are transferred as soon as possible from most bingo sites after announcing winners of a tournament. The survey was taken in a dynamic state of the advent of the game and it has been estimated that the numbers are increasing rapidly and may got to reach high numbers in a few years after many learn and start promoting the game by calling their friends to play online. Also, many users prefer joining UK bingo sites just to be at a place that offers the best prizes. Bingo online is growing on Internet for more than twelve years, since this famous type of gaming became the game of selection for the people of different ages. There is the profusion of online bingo sites that the player may select from and play bingo on this web site.[1]
