We all dream of winning jackpots at bingo when we play online; it’s the main reason we all keep coming back to play, that and all the great people you can meet in an online bingo room. What you may not know is that there are a few different types of games and jackpots that you can win in the wonderful world of online bingo. Here the aim is to explain the different types of games and how you could find yourself with a healthy bank balance from playing online bingo.
The best known type of bingo jackpot is probably the progressive jackpot or as some like to call it, the snowball jackpot. These games are generally played in the 75 ball bingo room but you can also find them played in 90 ball bingo as well. A progressive jackpot sees a percentage of each game’s ticket sales being added to a prize pool and the pot continues to grow. To win a progressive jackpot varies from bingo site to bingo site because each has their own number of calls to win in. The average amount of calls to win a progressive jackpot game ranges from about 33 bingo calls up to 50 bingo calls.
Some online bingo sites set a time period for the number of calls required; say one week and then they will increase this number by one per week. Details of an online bingo sites progressive jackpot and number of calls required is generally found in one of the promotional pages of the site you are playing at.
Another type of big jackpot game when playing online bingo is the Coverall games. Many sites play these games regularly over a weekly period and some even offer you the chance to win £1 million. In the Coverall games the prize pool starts at a really generous amount and then decreases when the bingo calls reach a certain number. This is an example taken from one online bingo site offering the £1 million coverall jackpots.
