History of online bingo
The bingo game has been around since the 1500s.
It wasn’t until 1996 that the first ever online bingo site launched in the USA. It was called “Bingo Zone”.
Sun Bingo launched in 2006, making it one of the oldest UK bingo sites.

As one of the very first UK bingo sites to launch, it’s an oldie but a goldie.
The site boasts not hundreds, but thousands of players.
Benefits of online bingo
For players who have traditionally played in halls, the thought of playing on a screen may seem strange.
However, there are an array of benefits to the virtual bingo experience.
There’s nothing more stressful than trying to find time for your hobbies when you’re busy.
Well, the great thing about online bingo is that it brings the game to you!
You might not have the time to go to the halls for a session but there’s five minutes left on the timer before dinner and you’re waiting in the kitchen.
That’s where online bingo comes in.
Within a few button clicks, you’re playing the game you love at a time and in a location that works for you.
You could be on a bus, in a queue or in the bath.
The bingo wins don’t have to stop just because of your busy lifestyle.

An online site gives you the freedom to play anytime, anywhere.
It also gives you game choices that physical bingo halls just can’t facilitate.
In fact, there’s casino games (such as blackjack and roulette), slots, slingos and scratch cards.

Types of online bingo games
Sun Bingo offers a number of bingo games. The main difference between them are the number of balls in play.
- 90-ball
This format is the traditional game played in UK bingo halls.
The bingo cards appear as a 3×9 grid comprising 15 random numbers.
The aim is to get a line or full house.
- 80-ball
This game format appears as a 4×4 grid comprising 16 random numbers.
The aim is to get a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line. Seen as the perfect middle between 90-ball and 75-ball bingo, 80-ball bingo has surged in popularity in recent years.
- 75-ball
Just like 80-ball bingo, the aim is to get a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line.
This game format appears as a 5×5 grid comprising 24 random numbers (the middle square is left blank).
This faster bingo format has the essence of the bingo we all love, just slightly sped up.

- 36-ball
Fast and packed with fun! The bingo tickets comprising 12 random numbers.

How to win online bingo
There are a few ways to win when playing online bingo, and how much you are awarded will depend on your type of win:
- 1 line – a row, column or diagonal line of squares has been marked off your ticket.
- 2 lines – two rows, columns or diagonal lines of squares have been marked off your ticket.
- Full House – every square has been marked off your ticket
- Pattern – a set winning pattern of squares has been marked off your ticket
Jackpot
Bingo jackpots are triggered if the full house is won before a specific number of calls.
The number of calls that the full house must be won before for the jackpot to be activated varies between the different bingo rooms.
WHAT’S THE ULTIMATE WEDDING SONG? FIND OUT HERE
The jackpots can either be awarded wholly to the community, wholly to the full house winner(s) or shared between the full house winner and all other players in that session (with 50% going to the winner and 50% to be shared amongst all of the other players).
Tips for choosing an online bingo site
If you’re thinking of playing online bingo, you might have some questions before getting started:
- What’s the best bingo site?
- Which bingo site is right for me?
- How do I pick a bingo site?
- What’s the best bingo game to play?
It’s important to pick the site that’s best for you.
Online bingo is a thriving way to play the game we love, and there’s plenty of variety when it comes to how you want to play.
Plus, there’s a huge range games to choose from. However, when it comes to the rules of online bingo, most sites have the same game rules.
THESE SWEET TREATS ARE WORTH KNOWING ABOUT
It’s mostly offerings such as type of bingo, prizes and extras like casino games that vary from site to site.
In order to pick the right site, it might help to think about what kind of bingo you’d like to play.
Generally, the fewer balls in a game, the faster the game tends to play out.
So, you might be looking for a site that offers quick games or you might want games that take a little longer so you can get more of the bingo experience.
What also helps to set bingo sites apart are the exclusive games, features and promotions.
In addition to bingo games, you might want think about what other games, such as slots, are on offer.
Make sure to check out the available bingo promotions and competitions as well.
