Online bingo sites use different promotions to attract new customers. As well as ‘online bingo no deposit’ bonuses they offer regular promotions to encourage their existing players to continue visiting their sites. These bingo promotions often involve winning money prizes, but some are more creative and unusual.

Gala Bingo launched a broadband week whereby 20 winners were selected in a prize draw and given money towards their broadband bills for the month.

Mecca offered a similar promotion but instead offered full house winners an opportunity to win their mortgage or rent payments for a year. All full house winners during promotional games won the opportunity to enter a final weekly prize draw. The winner of this draw won the annual mortgage or rent payments.

Sun bingo ran a promotion to commemorate paying out £100 million in prize money by giving away 100 cars in a prize draw. Players were automatically entered into the prize draw when they spent £2 or more on specific days or made a deposit into their account.

Keeping topical, William Hill offered players who deposited at certain times the opportunity to win a box at Ascot during the Shergar Cup events. The prize included a free buffet and champagne reception for the winner and their friends.

Paddy bingo launched a promotion that mirrored the famous ‘Where’s Wally’ children’s books. When a player spotted Paddy, the ‘cheeky Irishman with a grin to match and a pink and white hat’, and emailed the promotional team they won a £20 bonus for their account.
