Coral Bingo and Gala Bingo players, get ready for a new way to play bingo and win rewards. Entain has just launched exciting new Bingo Tournaments at two of its most popular brands. Following hot on the heels of the sites’ successful Slot Tournaments, is this a strategic step to extend the excitement of leaderboards, rankings, and rewards to the beyond slots fans to the bingo community? There’s been an 80% surge in UK players on Entain’s bingo platforms over the past three years. So we think it makes good sense to cater to that growing demographic.

Bingo Tournaments Inspired by Slots Tournaments
We’re thinking that Bingo Tournaments found its roots in the success of Gala Bingo and Coral Bingo’s slot tournaments which have been running for the last few years. These have proven to be massively popular, and it’s likely that the success of slots tournaments could encourage players to explore the bingo tournament equivalent.
These sites not only offer the traditional free-to-play slot tournaments but also introduce the coin-to-play variant, where players can enter by redeeming Coins. With two tournament mechanics, Entertain, you’re spoiling us!
The proof is in the pudding – since its March 2024 launch, the promotion has seen more than 80,000 unique players and 68% of Gala Bingo players engaging with it.
How does Bingo Tournaments Work?
It’s easy – from the games lobby, opt-in to the daily tournaments which kick off at the top of every hour throughout the day. Players start accumulating points based on their bingo wins. There’s a variety of winning options and points, for example a full house fetching 100 points, 1 line earning 30 points, and getting close with 2TG (to go) rewards 10 points. As players climb the ranking on the real-time leaderboard to win a place and a reward, you can also benefit from the social element of bingo – sharing progress with friends.
“Everything we do comes down to making sure that we’re providing the best experiences possible for our customers – so they enjoy playing with us and keep playing with us. Introducing a groundbreaking game and a more social way to play through Bingo Tournaments is just one way that we’re refreshing and investing in our games to deliver the best products to our customers.”
The Bingo Tournaments are shaping up to be a great option for fans of bingo. We love when bingo brands offer something new and different, let’s hope these bingo tournaments stick around!
