Bingo Online

BigTimeBingo, established in 1999, strives to provide the best bingo online entertainment experience on the internet. We do this by providing exciting bingo promotions, chat room games, excellent 24/7 support, and fairness. Bingo was only enjoyed in land based bingo halls until the invention of the internet. Over the years, technology and software have improved so now bingo online has become very reliable, more accessible and more entertaining. Bingo rules, payouts and play vary from bingo onlinehall to bingo online hall. Bingo information detailing particular bingo games, bingo rules and bingo payouts are usually available at each respective internet bingo website.

To play bingo online or land based bingo, players buy cards with numbers on them in a 5 x 5 grid corresponding to the five letters in the word B-I-N-G-O. Numbers such as B-2 or 0-68 are then drawn at random (out of a possible 75 in American Bingo, and 90 in British and Australian Bingo) until one player completes the corresponding Bingo game pattern, such as an anyline game pattern (five numbers in a vertical, horizontal or diagonal row) on one of their cards and wins the prize. There are many possible bingo game patterns played.

Land based bingo hall players have thousands of unique (unduplicated) cards to choose from. Some manufacturers print unduplicated series of 6,000 cards. There are also series of 9,000 cards available. Hard cards and Flimsy cards have a series number printed on them. For example, card number 1252 will always have the same numbers in the same spaces. When playing bingo online, bingo cards are selected by the bingo player from as many as 50,000 cards. Some bingo software randomly selects cards for the player. Most bingo online halls allow a maximum of 32 to 50 bingo cards. Some bingo online halls automatically assign all players the same numbers of cards to eliminate the advantage players who can afford to buy the maximum cards enjoy.

The numbers are announced quickly by the Caller, so you must pay careful attention to the numbers that are called and mark them quickly and accurately on your card(s). bingo online halls have automatic daubing features for those who would rather not search for the number, or play too many cards, or would rather play chat games or one of the other games offered during bingo games.

The caller keeps calling numbers until one or more players claim BINGO. Then the game stops and the numbers are verified. If there is a winner, the prize is awarded and a new bingo game begins with new cards. If there is more than one winner, the prize is split among all the winners.

Prizes vary for each game, but Bingo Palace offers hourly coverall bingo games with starting jackpots of $1,500 to $10,000! Additionally, Bingo Palace offers special progressive payouts as high as $10,000. Most land based bingo hall jackpots are much smaller than bingo online jackpots.
