Bingo Idol is a browser play bingo-oriented site, managed by one of the best-known gaming startup companies in the business – Tau Marketing Services. As a partner of 888 Holdings, Tau handles over 25 brands owned by Cassava Enterprises Ltd (888 Group subsidiary, incorporated under the Government of Gibraltar laws), including the Dragonfish powered Bingo Idol launched in April 2019.
Players outside the restricted territories (the United States of America, Israel, Turkey, France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Antigua, and Gibraltar) who complete the registration process and submit their first deposit will be able to claim Bingo Idol wager-free complimentary bingo cards and 10 Free Spins. The reward system at Bingo Idol is progress-based and once the welcome mat “wears out”, the loyalty points will continue to pile up on every qualifying bet your place, upgrading your membership status until you reach the final level.
PROMOTIONS AT BINGO IDOL
Bingo Idol welcome offer can be claimed by all new account holders who submit the qualifying £10 deposit and use the IDOL promo code. The offer is a bundle of free spins which can be used on a game of our choice, and two stacks of 105 Free Bingo Tickets, redeemable inside the Street Party and Big Bang bingo rooms. The number of cards and the individual ticket value is different in each room; the players will receive a 100-ticket voucher for Street Party and 5 tickets for Big Bang room.
Daily Offers are also regularly launched and available to all the members who created Bingo Idol account and submitted their deposits at least 24 hours prior to the active Daily Offer. The prize triggered by the deposit is not fixed and the members will be able to claim free spins, free bingo tickets or a mixture of both.
Additional, bingo-specific promotions can be located inside the Bingo lobby, where the players will get to choose between Mystery Jackpots, Last Call bingo sessions, and even Daily Jackpots with a different prize pot every day of the promotion.
Mystery Jackpot is probably the most exciting room since the actual cash prize remains hidden until the session is about to start. The maximum amount that the player can win is £500 and the price ticket is set at 10p. A more generous prize pool is offered in Daily Jackpot Games, where the players can win between £500 and £10,000, depending on the day of the week. Tuesday and Sunday are the most profitable days, featuring £1,500 or £10,000 jackpot, respectively.

The ticket prices go up to 50p, depending on the room. Guaranteed Jackpots room is where the players will find one of the Daily Jackpot games mentioned above – Sunday Blast, Monday Chill, Tuesday Rocks, Wednesday Chic, Thursday Groove, and KACHING, the latter being accessible to free bingo card holders. Gobsmacked is limited to only one 90-Ball bingo session with 100 free spins prize fond, while Bingo Roulette room offers a unique variant of 52-Ball game played on the roulette table layout.
