If you’re thinking of playing online bingo, you might have some questions before getting started:
- What's the best bingo site?
- Which bingo site is right for me?
- How do I pick a bingo site?
- What’s the best bingo game to play?
Sun Bingo has 1000s of players, and we love to see our community grew.
However, it’s important to pick the site that’s best for you.
Online bingo is a thriving way to play the game we love, and there are plenty of ways to play and games to choose from.
In order to pick the right site, it might help to think about what kind of bingo you’d like to play.
There are a fair few types!
Different types of bingo
- 90-ball
This format is the traditional game played in UK bingo halls. The cards appear as a 3x9 grid comprising 15 random numbers. The aim is to get a line or full house. On Sun Bingo, we have a tab dedicated to all our 90-ball rooms. This can be found under the “Bingo” tab on the home page.

- 80-ball
This game format appears as a 4x4 grid comprising 16 random numbers. The aim is to get a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line. Seen as the perfect middle between 90-ball and 75-ball bingo, 80-ball bingo has surged in popularity in recent years. The Heart Room on Sun Bingo exclusively runs 80-ball games.
- 75-ball
Just like 80-ball bingo, the aim is to get a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line. This game format appears as a 5x5 grid comprising 24 random numbers (the middle square is left blank). This faster bingo format has the essence of the bingo we all love, just slightly sped up. Many online sites – Sun Bingo included – offer auto-dabbing. That means you never have to worry about missing a call again!

- 40-ball
Packed with action, this bingo game uses tickets comprising 8 numbers. On Sun Bingo, the Rainbow Riches Bingo Room plays 40-ball games.
- 36-ball

Chatrooms
There’s one word that springs to mind when you think about bingo: community.
The chance to catch up with old friends, and make new buddies, is one of the core values of bingo.
So, a bingo site should also encourage this sense of community, bringing the chat and togetherness of the bingo halls to their online platform.
Sun Bingo works hard to do just that. We have a large number of chatrooms, where our excellent chat hosts and friendly roomies are waiting to say hello!
Some of the chatrooms are specific to a bingo room, so you can chat about the bingo games as they play out or ask questions.
However, Small Talk and Chit-Chat are rooms just for talking, you can chat about anything and everything!

Whether it’s with Sun Bingo or not, we hope you have fun and enjoy playing online bingo!
