What Makes the Best Bingo App
The seven app brands use the same account on app and web, with the same balance, welcome and rooms.
Bingo Formats on Mobile
Heart Bingo has four formats: 90-ball, 80-ball, 75-ball and 30-ball. Jackpotjoy and Mecca both offer 50-ball alongside the classics; Jackpotjoy’s tickets start from 1p and Mecca adds Best Odds Bingo rooms with 10 tickets per player and up to 25 players per game. Buzz and Double Bubble cover 90-ball, 80-ball and 75-ball. BingoStars adds speed bingo to 90-ball and 75-ball, and Happy Tiger sells 90-ball and 75-ball tickets at 25p, up to 40 per game.
Bingo Apps with Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal
Buzz takes Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal and Pay by Bank alongside debit cards; Double Bubble takes Apple Pay and Google Pay alongside cards; Heart offers Apple Pay with Visa and Mastercard. Mecca covers Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Apple Pay, Paysafecard and bank transfer, with deposits from £5 by card. BingoStars keeps Google Pay and PayPal in its app, and Happy Tiger adds Apple Pay to cards, PayPal and bank transfer.
Pay by Mobile Bingo Sites
Pay by Mobile adds a bingo deposit to your phone bill or takes it from your mobile credit, so you can top up without typing in card details. Four brands we review take it: Mirror Bingo, WTG Bingo, Wowcher Bingo and Barbados Bingo, all run by Jumpman Gaming. Pay by Mobile is for deposits, and winnings are paid to a debit card registered on your account, so add a Visa or Mastercard debit card before your first withdrawal. Visa, Mastercard, Paysafecard and Skrill sit in the same cashier.
Bingo App Welcome Offers
Each app carries the same welcome as its website. Mecca’s welcome starts with a £5 spend. Jackpotjoy gives £30 of free bingo for £10 of bingo play, Double Bubble gives £25 of free bingo, Heart gives a £50 bingo bonus and Buzz splits £40 between online bingo and a club voucher. BingoStars gives 40 free spins with 0x wagering on the winnings, and Happy Tiger matches a first deposit 100% up to £100 from £20.
Bingo Apps with Fast Withdrawals
Mecca pays most withdrawals within 15 minutes. Buzz aims to process requests within 1 hour, and Jackpotjoy and Double Bubble aim to authorise them within 24 hours.
