Choosing your Bingo Wagers

Playing bingo is far from traditional online gambling, with video poker or slot machines there is a certain amount you play per line. When you play online bingo wagers, there is an entrance fee to play the game. Then, once you are in the game, you buy bingo cards. There are a variety of ways you can choose what to wager.

If you are playing 75 ball bingo, you would expect to find 5p, 50p, and up to £1 in order to enter the bingo game. You have to pay these wagers, although you do have some degree of control over how much you spend whilst playing online bingo.

You should have already budgeted as to how much you want to spend either weekly or monthly playing online bingo. This limit should be based on the maximum amount of cash you are prepared to lose, therefore you should stick to this amount and not exceed it.

If you have decided to spend £20 a month playing online bingo and you want to play twice a night, every night, then you haven’t got enough money to spend £1 a game, so you would wager 50p or less on your bingo games. If you work it out over the month, a 5p game could suit you better as then you can play more than 62 games of online bingo every month.

In addition to your entrance fee, you then have to buy cards. There is a range between £1 and £15, depending on the bingo sites for 1 bingo card. So, if a site charges £6 for 6 bingo cards, with your 5p entrance fee, you have already spent over £6.

Of course, there are many bonuses available on the sites offering to double your initial deposit and also offering up to 50% on each additional deposit your make. So this can increase your monthly budget to £37.50 a month.
