Paddy Power Bingo has been around for a few years now and is still one of the best looking bingo sites around. It's easy to use and offers an exciting bingo experience for all players. In fact, their Bingo section, which is on the Virtue Fusion platform, looks more appealing than the sports section! New Player Bonus
Paddy Power Bingo continue to show their commitment to people new to bingo by offering £20 free for new players! There are conditions attached to qualify for this new player bonus. Once you open your account, you need to spend £5 or 5 euros on bingo tickets within 48 hours of setting up your chat name, otherwise you won't receive your freebie!
It's all well and good to offer things for new players, but what about if you already have an account? Don't worry, there is plenty of free bingo, bingo bonuses, regular tournaments and even a Stars reward scheme so existing players don't feel they are being left out of all the freebie giving.
Big Games
The big daily games at Paddy Power Bingo are their Bingo Linx Games which currently has 3 payouts a day, every day of £/€1,500 at midday, £/€2,500 at 6pm and £/€4,000 at 10.30pm. The cards do cost 50p each and can be pre-purchased. Although the price per card isn't one of the cheapest out of their games, it's because it has a larger cash prize with multiple payouts throughout the day.
Freebies
As well as paid for games, Paddy Power Bingo do have plenty of free bingo games, in fact, a whole 12 hours a day from 12pm until midnight! Head over to the Bargain Basement for hourly games from 12pm and if that's not enough for you, The Super Room has non stop free bingo from 7pm until 11pm.
You can also opt in to their Month of Free Bingo! The free Bingo room will run every Monday - Friday all month from 6 - 7pm in the Star Rewards Room with £/€100 prizes each night. However, this one comes with conditions – to be able to qualify, players much play on at least 10 days and spend at least £/€50 cash in the current month, then you get an invite at the beginning of the month.
Going Mobile
Paddy Power Bingo have now gone mobile with an App to use on the iPhone, iPad, Android phones and Android tablet. It features all their favourite bingo games including Sapphire, Gold Deal or No Deal and Lucky Numbers. Use your log in and off you go- you will earn Stars too whenever you play!
Loyalty Program
The Stars in Paddy Power's reward scheme sees you earning points when you play bingo which you can exchange into Bingo and Side Games bonuses. There are currently four levels, White, Silver, Gold and Supernova and you can move up the levels once you have collected enough points. At the beginner level you earn 50 Star Points per £10 play on Bingo and side games and 2.5 points per £10 Casino play. To move up to the Silver Star level you need to collect 2,000 points- quick bit of maths and you have to wager £400. Is this reasonable? We'll leave that up to the player to decide, however it's probably worth considering whether you would spend the same amount on another bingo site without a rewards scheme? While it is nice to be rewarded for playing bingo, it's important to check how they work beforehand so you get the best value.
Community
Paddy Power Bingo have a great community spirit and encourage their players to join in their chat rooms. If you are new to the chatrooms, head on over and say “hi” - the rooms are looked after by moderators and you can chat to other bingo players. If you do visit the chatrooms, you have the chance to win yourself 20,000 Star Points every week! Join in the chat in the Gold, Diamond, Sapphire, Topaz, Speed Trap, Pick & Mix and Bargain Basement Rooms and one person will be picked weekly to win. It's a good way to get involved and a natter with other bingo players, with the added bonus of possibly winning something too.
All in all, Paddy Power Bingo is a visually pleasing site to look at, easy to find your way round, has great offers, plenty of free bingo and a great community spirit. It is well worth a look in our book!
