Zoes Bingo Review
Zoe's Bingo launched in 2018 as a sister brand to Katie's Bingo. Adopting the same modus operandi it thrust a pretend owner of the bingo site, Zoe Anderson, into the spotlight. Like Katie's it launched on the Dragonfish platform thereby offer a wide selection of bingo games and slots. Despite claiming the Bingoport Best New Bingo Site of 2018 it's not really made many waves. That's a big shame because it's a decent enough looking site with plenty to offer players who decide to take a closer look.
Introducing Zoes Bingo
When you first arrive at Zoe's Bingo you'll find a colourful homepage featuring a cartoon style portrait of the site's "owner". Zoe tells us that she "loves a little bingo but really just can't get enough of those super slick slot games". To be honest we're not really a big fan of pretend people putting their names to bingo brands but some people might like it. Other than Zoe's face the homepage is dominated by the welcome offer, a few exclusives and a handful of slots. The site can be accessed on the go and you can even download an app from the App Store. However it's not needed as the site works just as well on mobile, tablet and desktop.
Zoe's Bingo Welcome Bonus
To encourage you to join Zoes's Bingo there is a 300% welcome bonus plus 30 free spins on the Fluffy Too slot. Register, login and make an initial deposit of £10 in order to claim the bonus. If you're like Zoe and can't get enough of those slots then there's an alternative slots available. The slots welcome offer is 150% of the first deposit up to £45. The slots welcome offer is outlined in full details on the site's promotions page but you will need to use code SLOTS to claim. Wagering terms do apply for both packages and these include x4 for any bingo bonuses and massive x80 for slot bonuses. To encourage further play Zoe does also offer bonuses on second and third deposits. Terms also apply.
Zoe's Bingo Rooms
New players can also enjoy a few days of free bingo in the Daily Doozey. No deposit is required but all wins are paid as bonuses so terms apply. As well as the Daily Doozey there are a handful of 90, 75 and 52 bingo rooms. Under the bingo tab in the lobby area you'll find Daily Jackpots, 24/7, Specials, VIP and All. The 24/7 tab is where you'll find the main active rooms - High 5, Chatterbox and High 5. Ticket prices are typically 5p or 10p although you can find cheaper and more expensive games. Some jackpot games offer pre-buy. All other rooms are jackpot rooms such as Mystery Jackpots and Even Stevens. Look under the Free section for more free game options for depositors including freebies that take place every Sunday and Monday.
Slick Slots
Slots feature at Zoe's and there are well over 300 different games to play. These include Starburst, Millionaire Genie, Fluffy Favourites, Sugar Train, Fluffy Too, Chuzzle, Spinata Grande, Shaman's Dream, Piggy Payout and more. On top of that there's also plenty of other titles from the likes of Pariplay, Eyecon and Net Entertainment. More recently Slingo games have been added to the Dragonfish platform although we think the lobby area could be greatly improved to make the slots more accessible. There have been a number of lobby upgrades in recent times but for some reason they just can't quite make things useable. Sections for Slingo, Daily Drop Jackpots, Progressives, Megaways and New Games would be ideal.
Zoes's Bingo Promotions
What differentiates Zoe's Bingo from other sites on Dragonfish though is that it does have a few exclusives although they are shared with it's sister sites. For example Mocktail Party gives you the chance to win a share of £200 on the 26th of every month. Another exclusive is the Fab 50 which plays every Monday. Zoe does claim to offer monthly bonuses to all players but when you follow the link there aren't any offers. The brand does also have some social media pages which is great, but with with hardly any followers it's not a surprise to see minimal activity. On a more positive note you will find the usual Dragonfish promos such as Weekend Tournaments, The Big £10K and Happy Hour taking place as usual.
Our Verdict
The "success" of Katie's Bingo meant that the then owners decided to try and replicate it with the same format but with obviously a different name. As mentioned we're not fans of fake players owning brands and we're not convinced that Zoe has worked out. How it won best new bingo site of 2018, the same year that Buzz and MrQ launched is a mystery. Sorry but this wasn't the best site of that year by a long way. What's also clear is that Zoe's hasn't kicked on from it's award success with zero social media activity and monthly bonuses missing in action. As it's exclusive rooms are shared with Prizeland Bingo and Quizingo we'd be more tempted to visit them instead.
