Lady Bingo

The game of bingo is overwhelmingly enjoyed by ladies. Estimates reflect that some 70% or more of bingo players are women. But it’s interesting to note why so many ladies are flocking to bingo’s doors. There’s more to this exciting story than meets the eye.

Online gaming is a mixed bag. First there’s the monotonous droning of slot machines, then there’s the prohibitive buy-ins of popular table games. But it’s nice to know that there’s still one game that comes replete with charm, sophistication, big paydays and other wonderful accoutrements. Ladies particularly enjoy this showstopper and its name is bingo.

What’s bingo got for the ladies?

For starters, whether it’s online bingo or ‘bricks and mortar’ bingo gaming, bingo offers lively gaming action. There isn’t a moment that ticks by without another bingo ball popping onto the screen, thereby increasing players’ chances of hitting a big jackpot win. And when it is taken into consideration that most of the games can be enjoyed with 1p and 2p a pop – it’s certainly affordable gaming to anyone and everyone.

By far the most important aspect of bingo is its social gaming component. No game provides a podium for so many players to interact with one another in a common, safe and secure gaming environment. Bingo is the unifying theme and all the players are eager to ‘meet and greet’ and to ‘name and game.’ Bingo is piping-hot entertainment and it’s all the rage. With forums, live-chat sessions, bingo moderators, blogs and email to make use of – it’s social interactivity like never before.

Prizes are another hugely popular reason why bingo is popular with the ladies. With cruise ship vacations, concert tickets, hundreds or thousands of €, £ and $ jackpots, it’s clear that this game has it all. But winning begins from the moment that players sign on. That’s because sign-up bonus offers, promotions and referral bonuses are hugely prolific in bingo gaming.

What bingo variants do the ladies enjoy?

Ladies particularly love the 2 standard bingo varieties. These include the North American favorite – 75-ball bingo and the European/UK humdinger – 90-ball bingo. Both games have their merits. 90-ball bingo is the classic game and comes with 9X3 bingo cards (15 numbers to a card). 75-ball bingo comes with 5X5 bingo cards and 24 numbers (center square is gifted to players).  But there are also hybrid variants like the fast-paced 80-ball bingo, speed bingo (30-ball bingo) and many others in the offing.
