Starting out
What you need to know about the game to play
Playing bingo online is very straight forward. Once you have signed up and put some money on your account you can join a bingo room and start playing. You may or may not know that in real bingo halls players use daubs to mark the numbers on their ticket as they are called out. In online bingo games this is usually done automatically, known as the auto-daub function. Some sites allow you to turn auto-daub on or off, either way you never lose if you forget to daub manually.
