How Do Bingo Bonuses Work?
It’s fairly common to see bonuses being offered on the vast majority of bingo platforms. But, it’s never really fully clear how they work, unless you go reading through the multitude of small print featured in the terms and conditions.
There can sometimes be a selection of different bonuses on offer, ranging from those provided upon registering, those given to you after depositing, or even those offered as part of a special promotional deal. With that being the case, it seemed logical for us to cover the various different bonuses and how they’ll affect your game play.
No Deposit Bonuses
What is quite frequently seen on many websites is something classed as a no deposit bonus. It won’t usually be headlined as such, but in order to receive such an offer, you simply need to sign up to the site. Doing so will see you input a few registration details, and you will then be asked to verify some credit or debit card details alongside.
The bingo site will not take any money from your card this is solely for verification. It’s then fairly frequent for a total of £5 or £10 to be provided to you to spend on bingo tickets.
This is not a trick, the reason bingo sites give you a no deposit bonus is so you can give them a go before you deposit, a form of try before you buy. If you think about it this makes sense and this is in fact a method used by many of the oldest and most reputable bingo sites. The vast majority of these sites also have additional deposit bonuses beyond the no deposit bonus so you won’t lose out by taking it up.
To claim a no deposit bonuses simply click the relevant link and register your details. This will include name and address and usually a bank card or similar payment method. No money will be taken from your card or bank, instead this is simply used to perform an age verification check, obviously you must be over 18 to play bingo in the UK and this is the easiest method to do this.
Some sites may let you use your bonus just using your name and address alone but you will not be able to withdraw any funds until you verify your account, so either way around you will have to do this at some point.
Once you receive your no deposit bonus you will be able to use this to buy bingo tickets (and sometimes play side games, etc.) just as you would be able to with real funds. The people you are playing against will not know you are using bonus funds to play with either. There are some terms to be aware of for you to be able to withdraw your bonus funds:
- Wagering Requirements / Rollover – No one in their right mind would give you free cash with no terms, if they did you could take your bonus and withdraw it without ever playing. The wagering requirements are there to ensure fair practice and also to make sure you spend some time playing bingo and checking the site out. The free bonus is there to give you a taster and so most sites will ask you to roll over the bonus at least a couple of times. This is not a huge amount to ask, for example, if you are given £5 free you may be asked to place £10 worth of bingo wagers before you can withdraw any winnings. Terms vary between sites so it is worth taking that minute or so to scout out the bonus rollover requirement.
- Bingo Game Availability – On occasion some of the no deposit bonuses are restricted from very high value games. This is only because there are high level progressive jackpots to be won and in general it is only fair to give these to depositing players. The vast majority of games, and with many sites all games, are available to use your no deposit bonus on.
- Minimum Deposit – Your no deposit bonus is free and will let you play games for free but if you do win some money after meeting the rollover requirement you may need to make a first deposit in order to withdraw the bonus winnings. If you really want to you can withdraw your deposit straight back out but then again if you’ve already won you might want to carry on playing. Making a first deposit will also entitle you the secondary deposit bonus.
- Deposit Bonus – Just because you take a no deposit bonus doesn’t mean your forfeit your right to a deposit bonus. As soon as you are done playing with your free credit you will automatically receive your any free deposit bonus following your first deposit.
Deposit Bonuses
A deposit bonus, on the other hand, is the most common and often offered on its own or combine with a non-deposit bonus. Most welcome deals provide a percentage bonus on top of your first deposit, so it’s a frequent occurrence to see an offer along the lines of, ‘200% Bonus on First Deposit’, or ‘Deposit £10 and Play with £30’. Bonuses generally come with rollover requirements (number of times you need to play through the bonus) and possibly a maximum winnings amount using bonus funds.
It is generally worth spending an few minutes reading the terms and conditions before you start playing. Once you’ve used a few site and taken a few bonuses you will quickly get the hang of the common terms.
How Can I Use the Bonus?
Normally, the bonuses provided are only able to be used to purchase bingo tickets, if the platform offers up any other side games, such as slots or table games, for example, the standard bonus offered won’t be able to be used on these. This is not always the case, some will let you use your bonus on whatever you like.
It is sometimes customary for a bingo site to offer a separate bonus just for utilising across the extra games they provide. It’s also sometimes the case that a promotion will work to cover both sections, so you’ll find offers that provide bonuses on top of your first and second deposits, with the first being a bonus for use on bingo tickets, and the second for using on the slots. Again, the terms and conditions of each bonus should be read through to clarify exactly where your bonus funds can be used.
Wagering & Rollover Requirements
This specific section doesn’t solely relate to online bingo platforms, but instead to online gaming sites in general. It’s usually always the case that whenever you receive a bonus, you’ll also have wagering requirements to adhere to. This is very relevant to take notice of, as it relates to making a withdrawal of your winnings.
Wagering requirements are basically the amount of play through you need to complete before either the bonus, winnings generated from the bonus, or both can be withdrawn. Again, this information is usually noted in the terms and conditions, and will usually state that a bonus needs to be wagered a total of two times, or something similar. Sometimes, both the bonus and the deposit amount need to be wagered a certain number of times. So, let’s take a look at what this means:
• Let’s say that you make a deposit of £20 and receive a 200% bonus on top, equal to £40 extra.
• The bonus comes with a wagering requirement of 2 times the deposit and bonus amount
• Therefore, £20 (your deposit) + £40 (your bonus) x 2 (wagering) = £120.
• So, your wagering requirements in this instance is £120.
This is not an amount you need to win or to lose, but simply the amount of funds you need to spend on buying bingo tickets or playing a slot game, with every purchase or spin counting towards it. This is just an example, so wagering requirements will differ from site to site, and they’re not always for both bonus and deposit.
Keep in mind that while this may seem like a vast amount at times, your balance won’t deplete on such a dramatic scale, as you’ll have the chance of winning games you’re playing.
Exceptions to Offers
While welcome bonus offers and recurring promotions are usually great to take advantage of, there may be one or two cases where the promotion won’t be able to be applied to your account. This is usually dependant on the type of depositing method you use. One or two of these can be excluded from the offer, so if you see that you can receive the bonus funds by utilising a credit or debit card, but not via Skrill, Neteller or Paysafecard, for example, it will then be up to you to decide accordingly as to how you wish to proceed.
The bottom line with offers is always read the terms and conditions.
