The start of a new year isn’t just the perfect time to quit your bad habits; it’s also a great opportunity to take up new hobbies such as online bingo. If you’ve been thinking about joining an online bingo site or you’re getting bored of playing at the same old place, why not let us inspire you with our top picks for 2023?
As we’re only a couple of weeks into January, there have yet to be any new online bingo brand launches, but you can be sure that we’ll be telling you all about them the minute that they launch.
In the meantime, there are many amazing places to play online bingo.
For example, several new brands entered the market in the latter half of 2022 including Bingo Stars, Heat Bingo, Winit Bingo and Blast Off Bingo.
Reasons to join Bingo Stars
Bingo Stars is a Dazzletag Entertainment brand, and it’s the sister site of Bingocams.
Here, you can enjoy playing in an exciting range of Pragmatic Play online bingo rooms including The Red Carpet, Jackpot Lounge, Superstar, Bingo Blast, Lucky 75, and 80s Heaven.
There are 4 different online bingo variants available – 90-ball, 80-ball, 75-ball, and 30-ball – as well as more than 1,000 slots, casino games, and live casino games.
In addition, you can play for progressive bingo jackpots in several rooms and enjoy a spin on jackpot slots like Clover Rollover 2 and Mega Moolah.
UPDATE JANUARY 2024 – Heat Bingo and Winit Bingo have both now closed down.
Heat Bingo is a newly launched Dragonfish bingo brand that includes a feast of online bingo rooms that offer 90-ball, 75-ball, and High 5 games. There are also 4 free bingo rooms, as well as more than 700 slots including player favourites like Starburst, Bonanza, Gonzo’s Quest, and Fluffy Favourites.
Heat Bingo is big on jackpot games, and it not only has a Mystery Jackpot bingo room, but also a monthly game with a £10,000 prize pool called the Big 10K.
You can find out more in our Heat Bingo review!
Winit Bingo has also just launched and is from the same stable and on the same platform as Heat Bingo, so we are hopeful that the operator is planning some community games and jackpots and promotions.
UPDATE JANUARY 2024 – Blast Off Bingo has closed down once again – this site is just not destined for success it seems.
Blast Off Bingo relaunched in late 2022, and it brought with it a delectable selection of Dragonfish-powered online bingo rooms. Along with 90-ball and 75-ball games, it features Bingo Roulette games. It also has a generous range of online slots and Slingo games.
The promotions include everything from the welcome offer and free spins to a generous loyalty scheme and daily jackpot games.
