Foxy Bingo Review

Everyone has heard of Foxy Bingo.

The brand has been in operation since 2005 so it’s no surprise they are well known, and their humorous TV adverts have gone down very well with payers too.

This is a bingo brand with real personality and a genuinely strong offering that smaller brands just can’t match. They are owned by the giant gambling company, Entain, so it’s safe to say that Foxy Bingo is well resourced. This is beneficial to players because the infrastructure is incredibly strong, meaning your experience will be the best of the best and your online safety is in hand.

It also means you get access to the best games and multiple payment methods as Foxy benefits from the contacts and partnerships Entain have built over the years.

They are always coming up with new offers, free to play games, and promotions, and find entertaining ways to give back to their customers which makes the site even more fun to visit.

A Bit of Foxy Bingo History

Founded way back in 2005 during the early days of online bingo, Foxy Bingo is now one of the best known and best loved bingo brands in the country.

It was founded by a company called Cashcade and started life with just two bingo rooms. Then Cashcade was bought by PartyGaming in 2009, who merged with bwin in 2011 to become bwin.party. Foxy had been part of all these delas so the brand stayed strong throughout.

Then in 2015 a company called GVC Holdings bought bwin.party, before launching Foxy Casino alongside the bingo brand, then changing the name of it to Foxy Games. GVC rebranded in 2020, and that’s how Foxy Bingo came to be owned by the company now known as Entain.

You might not have heard of Entain, but they are the company that own Labrokes, Coral, Gala Bingo/Casino, and plenty more besides. They are a multinational gambling behemoth turning over between £4 billion and £5 billion every year, so it’s safe to say that Foxy Bingo is in good hands.

The brand operates on the old Cozy Games network, now owned and operated by Electraworks who are also part of Entain. This means everything is handled in house with no third parties to confuse the situation.

They have always been big on marketing and celebrity partnerships, teaming up with the likes of Katie Price, Joey Essex and Lauren Goodger, and they even spent £10 million on a campaign featuring Hollywood actress, Heather Graham. They have also sponsored Smooth Radio and the Jeremy Kyle Show among others.

Bingo Rooms and Games

You will find mostly 75-ball and 90-ball bingo here, but there are one or two 80-ball, 50-ball, and 30-ball variations too.

In terms of ticket prices, there are rooms for low spenders at 2p per ticket and rooms for those after bigger prizes at 20p per ticket. There are a lot of free to play options too, but these are promotional and not really bingo games.

You can even get discounts on ticket prices in you buy their package deals. This is something only bigger brands can afford to do.

One other massive benefit of playing with Foxy Bingo, is you get access to their branded bingo rooms such as Coronation Street bingo, Emmerdale bingo, and Deal or No Deal bingo. These are not available on any other network so Foxy is one of the only sites you can play them on.

The rooms are all a bit different even if they aren’t branded, with progressive community jackpots that are not linked (so each room has its own jackpot meaning more chances to win), roll on prizes after the full house has been won, and other additional features.

In terms of slot games, there are thousands in the Games section, but even in the bingo section you will find more than you could realistically ever play. I like giving the Slingo options a go from time to time, and although I never play the slots offered as side games when I’m playing bingo, that’s an option if you want to fill the time.

They even have traditional casino games and a live casino. Bingo players can sometimes be a bit wary of the live casino, but the game show style games on offer are a similar vibe to bingo so I would recommend having a look to see what you think. You can just watch if you don’t want to play.

Using The Website

With this being a biggish brand the website has a lot more depth than the smaller white label bingo brands.

It really shouldn’t be a problem, it just means there are more options available and more places to explore. Yes, it can make finding things a tiny bit more difficult from time to time, but it’s built to be user friendly and intuitive.

I think a website of this side offers the perfect balance actually: it’s small enough to be manageable and fun and not so big to overwhelm newbie players like those sites that also offer bookmaking and such.

It’s so much more interesting too as it feels unique.

Most categories are clearly marked in a menu bar, and you can switch between the bingo site and the games/casino site with a one click toggle at the top of the page. It’s just like turning a page, and it’s a fantastic solution rather than having to fit both products onto a single home page.

Slot games are still available on the bingo site, but the design and layout of each are tailored to the product in question.

I love it.

Ways to Pay

Thanks to Entain, Foxy can afford to offer loads of payment methods:
