Learn to Play Online Bingo

Buying Bingo Tickets
After you have entered the bingo room, the first thing to do is to buy your tickets. You can purchase as many bingo cards as you like for 10p each. There are thousands of possible number variations to choose from. You can either buy individual bingo cards, or buy whole strips consisting of six cards each.

You can buy a card to play with by clicking once to highlight any ticket within a strip, and then clicking on the BUY button on the screen. If you would like to buy a whole strip, just click on the top of the strip. The money will automatically be taken from your player account. If you change your mind and want to de-select a strip, simply click on the card or strip before you buy to un-highlight it.

For easier and quicker game play, you can choose to use the quick buy feature by clicking on the quick buy button on the Littlewoods Bingo site. You can then choose either the default number of strips, or click on the 1, 2, 3, 5, 8 or Max buttons, or enter any number of strips you wish to purchase. Then simply click on BUY.

Bingo Calling
All the bingo numbers from 1-90 are displayed on the call board to the right. The current bingo number being called is shown in large font, while the last 5 bingo calls are displayed at the top of the call board. As the numbers are called, they light up. The call board also indicates the current call number. There are a maximum total of 90 calls that can be made during one game.

Our best card sorting feature arranges your tickets in order of performance. If you are playing online bingo with more than one bingo card, the card closest to winning will automatically be placed at the beginning. All your tickets will be shown as "1 to go", "2 to go" and "3 to go" accordingly, letting you easily identify which tickets are closest to winning.

Dabbing
In 90-Number Bingo, cards have three rows and nine columns. Five squares in each row contain numbers ranging from 1 to 90, while the rest are blank. Mark your numbers off on your cards with your personally customized dabber, as the numbers are displayed on the call board. You can choose to do this manually or you can select the auto dab function from the options menu in the top left of the screen.

The auto dab option will automatically mark all your numbers that are called out for you. This means you do not have to mark off each corresponding number on your card as it is called. This is ideal if you have purchased a large number of tickets, which can be difficult to manage. If you would like to change back to manual dab, do so in the options menu.

Do not worry if you miss a called number while manually dabbing, it will not affect the outcome of the game if your ticket is the winner! All called numbers will be highlighted in coloured squares on all bingo game cards that you have purchased.

Winning Online Bingo
To win you must be the first player to complete the winning pattern, which will be shown on the screen.

The patterns include:

• Single Line Across (Line): a row of numbers in a horizontal line.
• Two Line Across (Two Lines): two completed horizontal rows of numbers. 
• Full House: all numbers on the card marked off.

If you see that you have your winning pattern, you should call ‘Claim!’ by clicking on the claim button. “Claim” is similar to calling “Bingo” in a traditional bingo hall. Your prize will then go directly into your player account. For games where there is more than one winner the jackpots are shared evenly amongst all the winners of a game.
