Everywhere you hear about ‘free bingo’ and ‘no deposit bingo’. How it works? Is it really free?

The enjoyment of Bingo has reached a whole new level due to the remarkable growth of the online version of the game.

This has offered a fantastic opportunity for many newcomers to be involved in the game of bingo for the very first time. Unsurprisingly, a few may find the prospect of putting their own money at risk a little daunting especially in a day and age where many of us have to keep to a tight budget.

Thankfully, new players have a host of choices available to sample the game without having to make any investment themselves. Most online sites now offer new players a chance to try their free bingo games. Usually, these come in the form of a no deposit bonus that is awarded to an account as soon as a player signs up for membership.

These bingo bonuses come as a cash sum awarded directly to an account or, more commonly, in the form of ‘Bonus Bucks’ which can be used against the purchase of tickets but have no cash value of their own.

With some sites offering games from just 1p, players have a great opportunity to get a genuine feel for online Bingo. Often, players are lucky enough to win a few games and get the chance to carry on playing for even longer.

If their free money runs out, most sites will give more bonus cash once a player make a first-time deposit to their account.

There are also specialist sites that players can join on a completely free basis. Bingo players simply join up with the site and play for points that can be exchanged for a variety of goods or prizes. Often, points are exchanged for entry into weekly raffles or prize draws although many sites now offer their members the chance to win cash once enough points have been accumulated.

There are many different forms of online Bingo, but most are made up of either the 75 or 90 ball games. Players can purchase game cards and then mark off numbers from that card as the computer software randomly generates them. Players compete against each other to complete their card first.

If a particular pattern, horizontal line or total card is completed before any other player manages to do so, the game is won and a prize is awarded. A new game is then started. It is possible to play with several cards during any particular game, thus giving the player a theoretically better chance of winning.

There are advantages to playing online, particularly the fact that one can play at any time from anywhere in the world. This allows the chance to fit in a game of Bingo around busy lifestyles, and players can also play in multiple rooms to give themselves a better chance of winning.

Far from being a lonely pastime, online Bingo rooms tend to be very active and friendly communities where new friends can be made and players can chat to each other whilst playing.

With attractive visuals, fast-paced games and the chance of winning huge jackpots, playing Bingo online can be a very pleasing and enjoyable social experience.

Naturally, one of the biggest attractions of playing online Bingo today has to be some of the fantastic cash prizes on offer. Even regular games can see winners rake a tidy amount into their no deposit Bingo bankrolls, but the real lure comes in the shape of some fantastic guaranteed and progressive ‘Jackpot’ games that can see life-changing amounts of money up for grabs.

A Jackpot game offers players the chance to win huge prizes in a number of different ways. In 90 ball Bingo, players normally have to complete a full house within a certain amount of numbers being called to win the biggest prize on offer.

The 75 ball games usually sees the Jackpot won for completing a certain shape or pattern on their cards, such as a champagne glass or a heart, as well as prizes for coveralls or full houses. Again, this normally has to be completed within a set amount of numbers being called.

Most of the time, these prizes are difficult to win because of the low number of balls required to qualify for a Jackpot prize.

Many online sites and Bingo halls now offer guaranteed Jackpot games. This means that when the Jackpot prize is announced, it is there to be won no matter how many calls the winning combination is met in. The site or club will also guarantee the prize money even if there are an insufficient number of players taking part to make up the Jackpot prize based on the number of tickets purchased. Note that sometime progressive Jackpots are not available in no deposit bingo games.

This gives players a superb chance of winning big just by playing the game in a regular format and most online sites hold at least one major guaranteed Jackpot prize every week.

Another way to make big bucks is by winning a progressive Jackpot. When a series of games begin, a large prize is offered if a player wins that game within a set amount of numbers being called or a particular pattern being formed. As the series of games continue, the progressive Jackpot rises based on ticket sales and continues indefinitely until the prize is won.

Guaranteed and progressive Jackpot games can often run into tens of thousands of pounds

Both forms of Jackpot offers players a fantastic chance to win sums of money that can only be dreamed of, and make for a great reason to join one of the many online Bingo sites offering free Bingo, get your Bingo bonus and start playing.

Those who have played the old game of bingo can tell that it is not at all about winning and losing, but suspense, anticipation as well as excitement that will go all along with this game, which has thrilled lots of people all the way back to 1530. Like many other traditional & popular games, that became favorites in the video game parlors and online casinos, it was just a matter of time before bingo hits the information highway and goes online. Now you can play this thrilling game online as well as enjoy each and every minute as if you played in a bingo room offline. Here is some information, which traces history & origins of the traditional Bingo leading to an opportunity to play free bingo from home.

The game of bingo is thought to derive from the 16th century predecessor, lottery named ‘Lo Giuoco del Lotto D’Italia’ that was introduced in a year 1530. This lottery is still being played nowadays in Italy (!). In late 1700s, the French developed their edition of ‘Le Lotto’. The French version also involved a caller who drew the wooden discs, numbered from 1 to 90, from a bag and called every number to the participants of the bingo game. Germany quickly followed in taking on bingo, but, they used it mainly as a tool for learning purposes to help the students learn history, spelling, and mathematics.

It wasn’t until 1929 that this bingo game was introduced in America, when Lowe Edwin accidentally came over this game of ‘Beano’ at a carnival close to Atlanta, Georgia. This Beano game, like its predecessor ‘Le Lotto’, also involved a caller who drew wooden discs from a bag and screamed them out to the free bingo players. Every player had a bingo card with numbered squares and every time when a number was called out, the bingo players had to mark the corresponding square number with a bean. It is thought that during this game, an excited female player screamed ‘Bingo’ in place of ‘Beano’ to proclaim that she has won. Name sounded striking and Lowe teamed with Carl Leffler and proceeded to renew and rename this game of ‘Beano’.

Now, 90 years later, the online bingo scene is growing rapidly. Great new bingo sites are launched every month, offering great free bingo offers and no deposit bingo money just for registration.
