It's so easy to play bingo online! All you have to do is (1) register with a bingo site - this may include verifying your email address and adding credit card details; (2) deposit some money (or you can use your free bingo cash) - if you do decide to make a first deposit I advise spending the minimum, usually £10; (3) buy some bingo cards - some sites allow you to buy up to 100 cards per game, but remember to keep an eye on your budget; (4) get your eyes down to play bingo!
You don't even have to worry about dabbing your cards, as the bingo sites will automatically do this for you (you can decide to do this for yourself, but it's not that easy with a lot of cards) - leaving you plenty of time to chat to your bingo friends and join in the chat games. As the numbers are drawn, your cards will shuffle accordingly to show you which one is the nearest to winning bingo.
When bingo is called (and again don't worry, it's automatic), the game ends. If you're a lucky winner your prize money is then added to your bingo account. It's all very simple and easy to play.
Look out for game variations - 75 ball and 90 ball bingo - and different price games (some sites will run a 10p per card game followed by a £1 per card game and you might end up spending more than you bargained for). Jackpots vary from a few pounds right up to the progressive jackpots that can be in the thousands.
Don't worry about the bingo lingo, I'll cover that for you another time.
Take a look at this little movie from Jackpotjoy - it gives you a brief overview of their site, and demonstrating just how easy it is to start playing bingo!
