How do I join and play an online bingo game?

You don't need an account, an app or the host's login to play. Any up-to-date phone, tablet or computer browser works.

Before you start

• The game link from your host (it includes the game code).
• Ask the host which pattern wins: a line, four corners or a full card.
• Use the same browser and device for the whole game, so your marks stay with you.

Steps

1. Open the link from your host.
2. In Add your name, type the name the host will see (at least 2 characters).
3. Press Join bingo. Your card appears.
4. When the host calls a number, find it on your card and tap the square to mark it.
5. When you complete the winning pattern, press Bingo!. The host sees your card and checks it.
6. If the host says Not yet, keep playing. You can claim again later.

Troubleshooting

The page won't load or says the game isn't ready

Check you opened the full link, not a shortened or cut-off one. If the host hasn't opened the call board yet, keep the page open and refresh in a minute.

I lost my connection

Open the same link again. You rejoin with your name and the numbers already called sync back to your screen.

My Bingo! was rejected

One of your marked squares hasn't been called yet. Unmark it and keep playing.
