Gone are the days of newspaper bingo meaning the weekly bingo card given out in the weekend paper for you to mark off your numbers every day from the numbers printed in your daily newspaper. No, nowadays newspaper bingo is big business online as more and more news groups are launching their own online bingo sites to cash in on the increasing popularity of online bingo.
The Sun was one of the first newspaper groups to launch an online bingo site onto our computer screens in January 2006. Over the years the Sun Bingo website has gone from strength to strength and in 2008 they moved from their link with Tombola to their own standalone bingo website and business appears to be booming if their current promotions are anything to go by.
Another tabloid newspaper that has its own online bingo site is Mirror Bingo who are part of the CashCade network and use the Globalcom software to provide their bingo games. Scotland’s biggest newspaper, The Daily Record, also has its own online bingo site which like The Mirror bingo site is part of the CashCade network so as with other CashCade sites, the bonuses, jackpots and promotions on offer are some of the best online.
It has been predominantly the tabloid newspapers that have launched online bingo sites but other newspaper groups are cottoning onto the popular of online bingo and are launching their own bingo sites.
The Daily Mail launched their bingo website, Coffee Break Bingo, as part of their online news website. From the home page you just need to click on the Coffee Break tab to take you to their bingo site and then log in and play. So when you go online at the Daily Mail you can catch up with the latest world, sports and entertainment news alongside your daily bingo fix.
Although the Daily Express have already launched their bingo site, I’m not sure if they are just going through the motions or whether they will be developing the site further as me the whole website looks a bit bland.
One of the newest newspaper bingo sites to be launched is Metro Bingo. If you are a regular traveller through London you won’t fail to see the free Metro newspaper that is handed out in the railway stations. When you visit the Metro Bingo website, not only will you be able to sign in and play bingo but from the home page you will have links to the online Metro newspaper website so you can catch up with the news whilst you play bingo.
As online bingo popularity increases I don’t think it will be too long before some of the broadsheets, such as The Independent or Daily Telegraph, launch their own bingo websites
