Traditional Bingo has been a popular pastime

Traditional Bingo has been a popular pastime for many years throughout the world. It’s a great meeting place for friends and family and a great place to meet new people in such a relaxed atmosphere. It’s no surprise that there are over 60 million bingo players worldwide.

The average bingo player is predominately female, aged 30-60, and is located in North America. Avid bingo players stick to their routines, such as playing bingo on certain nights of the week, each and every week. Playing bingo becomes part of their routine, part of their way of life.
They start to form a friendship with the players around them and players will easily notice if a regular is not there. Most bingo players even have a lucky seat. Traditional bingo halls can however be a tad smoky, it’s sometimes difficult to manage multiple bingo cards, and some players struggle to get to the bingo halls or they simply do not have the time, especially for stay at home moms.

Wait, now there’s a new form of bingo, an evolution in the bingo generation. Its bingo on the internet, online bingo! You may ask yourself, how can playing bingo online give the same satisfaction as playing bingo with family and fiends in a traditional bingo hall? Why should I change my lifestyle?

The fact of the matter is that Online Bingo has its own set of unique advantages. In a recent survey done by a popular online bingo portal, the number one reason for playing online bingo, was “meeting new people”.

Playing online bingo tears down borders and allows you to play online bingo live against other players around the world. You heard me correctly; online bingo is multi player, one game with players from all over the world.
