NRG Bingo Review
This one is ideal for bingo players who also have an interest in other areas of gambling.
Why? Because NRG is also a sportsbook and an online casino, so it’s a website packed full of choice, with bingo just one of the options available.
This may not suit everyone, us bingo lot can be a little apprehensive when it comes to harder forms of gambling, but there is no obligation to use these other products so don’t let them put you off.
NRG Bingo only launched in 2024, but the people behind the scenes have been in the industry a lot longer than that. The chap who runs SharedBet Ltd, the company that owns the NRG brand, has been in online gambling for 20+ years, and that’s not all…
NRG use the Pragmatic Play bingo network, and as anyone who knows their online bingo will tell you, Pragmatic are veterans of the bingo world. Their network is fun, fast, and exciting, used by players at scores of different sites.
So let’s have a little look at this online bingo provider and see what we think, shall we?
Bingo Games and Rooms
When you go to the site, you will start off in the sportsbook. Getting to the bingo section is really easy though, so don’t be intimidated.
Just look at the menu at the top of the screen and you will see the word ‘Bingo’. Click there, and voila, no more sportsbook. Only bingo related stuff will be in front of you.
Pragmatic Play provide some of the most entertaining bingo in the industry, and you will be spoilt for choice in terms of room types and game variations.
There are even some lesser spotted game types such as 30-ball, 50-ball and 80-ball, to go alongside the more regular 75-ball and 90-ball games. You can run 3 rooms at the same time too, so the experience can be as laid back or as fast and frantic as you like.
You won’t be waiting for more than a minute or so for a game to start, although they also run rooms that are much less frequent but offer much bigger prizes too.
You can expect jackpots worth thousands of pounds waiting to be won in many of them, and other unique in-game features like Pick a Pic in Animingo. It’s really cute and a good way to get extra life out of your bingo spends.
The bingo provided by Pragmatic is definitely the star of the show at NRG.
Casino and Sportsbook
For those that do want to broaden their options, the sportsbook and casino is available.
I don’t know many bingo players who make sports bets, but if you are one of the handful who do, you can bet on virtually every sport you can imagine here.
It’s more likely that people will be interested in the online casino though, which has too many slot games to count as well as a big live casino with all the favourite table games and loads of gameshow style games too.
The game show style games would probably appeal to many bingo players, as they are often based on popular TV game shows, or at least use them as inspiration. They are very easy to get to grips with.
The slots are broken down into useful categories and include every theme under the sun. You can even filter games by specific developers if you already know what you like.
Deposits and Withdrawals
Perhaps it’s because they are such a new brand, but NRG don’t accept payments from any source other than debit cards.
Nevertheless, here is the banking table such as it is:
| Banking Method | Max/Min Deposit | Max/Min Withdrawal | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Debit Card | £10 | £10 | 3-5 Days |
Their terms seem fair enough though, but be aware they only protect customer funds at the very basic level as required by their gambling license.
This is nothing to be concerned about, but anyone who tends to leave large amounts resting in their online bingo account might want to rethink their approach just in case.
Contact and License
One downside of using NRG is that they only handle customer support via email.
They are based in the UK, so they must have a phone number they could call you from in particularly difficult situations, but for the most part it will be support via email.
Here are their contact details:
- Email – cs@nrg.bet
- @NRG_bet
I’ve listed their Twitter handle even though their account is dormant. They might start using it in the future so it’s worth knowing about.
They could do with adding a live chat at the very least, but once again, this is probably just because the brand are so new and building a live chat into the setup and hiring the extra staff is expensive.
I would expect this service to expand as the brand grows.
You can view the company’s gambling license on their UKGC page, their license number is 63635.
