Charity Bingo Sites

We all love to do our bit for charity (mate) and some bingo brands like to help out and do their bit too. Over the years we've seen sites set up for a dedicated charity, some sites that will donate profits to charity and others that run games to generate funds. For example in 2010 Pink Ribbon Bingo became the first charity bingo site. It's aim was to make donations and raise awareness for Breast Cancer Care. Give Back Bingo, Charity Bingo and Bingo Giving all followed but their aim was to support random charities often suggested by players. Whilst all had good intentions at their heart none of them are doing donations now. Big brands prefer to support good causes with special bingo games. Gala and Mecca for example have a chosen charity and will support by donating profits from selected games. Note that playing in these games doesn't effect the price you pay or the jackpots on offer.

Supporting Good Causes

Interestingly since we first created this section there's been a number of changes on the charity bingo scene. Tickety Boo Games which supported Marie Curie Cancer Care closed down. This was a huge surprise because it was expected to follow in the footsteps of Pink Ribbon Bingo. Both brands used the Dragonfish platform, but sadly for Tickety Boo it was just a case of Tickety Bye. Pink Ribbon still operates although it's unclear whether they're still making donations out of their profits. A similar picture can be painted for Bingo Giving. Their aim, a bit like Give Back Bingo, was to select a good cause each month and make a donation. Today they're just a standard Dragonfish/Broadway Gaming brand with absolutely no reference to donations or their charitable past.

Jumpman Bingo Charity Sites

Sailing a similar boat to Bingo Giving is Charity Bingo, a Jumpman Bingo powered brand. Charity Bingo aimed to pick a good cause each month and support it through it's players activity. This site started off with good intentions but has since changed hands and doesn't seem to be updating with regards it's charitable activities. The jewel in the Jumpman Charity Bingo crown was Tidy Bingo. They reguarly held special games to raise funds that then were donated to Help For Heroes. Nikki and David went to great lengths to ensure transparency of these games - and made sure that their players knew exactly how much money was being donated. Sadly these ended in August 2016 when the site changed hands - and eventually closed down.

Why Play Charity Bingo Games

Whilst we admire sites that help raise funds for charity, we are sceptical about how players actually perceive them. In other words if Site A and Site B are on the same network and offer exactly the same experience then we're not sure if a player is more or less likely to choose A over B simply because A supports good causes and B doesn't. If players were swayed by charity then sites like Pink Ribbon and Give Back would receive better coverage than their competitors. We do feel that players are more likely to play specific games within a site like Mecca, Foxy or Gala rather than choose a site such as Pink Ribbon. A big brand can easily accommodate charity games within their schedules, still offer regular promotions and offer much needed transparency. We may be wrong so we'd be happy to hear your views on charity bingo sites and games.
