Bingo Bonuses Explained

With the intense growth of online bingo the major networks are pulling out all the stops to get you to sign up to their sites. To entice you to sign up they will offer you a variety of bonuses which may even include free money with no deposit required. There are many different type of bonuses so let me explain in more detail.

By far the best type of bonus is a no deposit bonus. This is in effect free money. The bingo site offers you a fixed amount (usually £5 to £20) to sign up to their site. Some sites that offer this kind of bonus do require you to enter your credit or debit card details simply for age verification.

Many sites may seem to offer a no deposit bonus but on closer inspection this is not the case. An offer such as get £20 free may have small print that requires you to deposit £5 or £10 to claim the free money. These type of offers are of course not no deposit bonuses.

Perhaps the most popular type of bonus is a matched bonus,  usually 100%. In basic terms if you deposit £20 and the match bonus is 100% you will get £20 free.

It is always a good idea to read the terms and conditions before you sign up to any site. If you simply want to try online bingo then opt for a straight no deposit bonus.
