What should I look for in a new bingo site ?
When a new bingo site launches, there's a few things to consider and we've put together a quick list of what we think you should be looking out for;
Welcome offer - Most new bingo sites will tempt new players with a welcome offer, so make sure you check the terms and conditions. Some welcome offers can range from "free" bonus money which attracts wagering, through to free or bonus spins, which again will need you to play through them a few times before you can withdraw any winnings.
Loyalty or VIP schemes - In addition to a welcome offer and other deposit offers, most new bingo sites will offer a loyalty scheme of a VIP club. These are available to regular players and you'll get some kind of points scheme to collect and redeem for bonus money or sometimes real money.
Types of bingo games - Check the new bingo site you're joining to make sure they've got the types of bingo game you most enjoy playing, like the regular 90 ball or 75 ball bingo. You might also find some new bingo sites have other bingo game variations like 90 ball, 50 ball and sometimes 30 ball.
Slots and side games - If you like playing progressive slots or side games alongside your regular bingo game, then check out the games sections on any new bingo site, and make sure they've got the games you like. Some new bingo sites start off with slot games you might not have heard about, whilst others will have the usual Fluffy Favourites or Starburst available when they first launch.
Banking options - Most bingo sites will allow you to deposit and withdraw in all the usual ways, like credit card, PayPal, Neteller, Skrill etc. But make sure the new bingo site you're choosing has the right payment method for you. If you play on your mobile a lot, then you might want to consider using a mobile payment solution like Boku or by paying directly through your phone bill.
Customer support - Probably one of the most important things to look out for when choosing a new bingo site. Customer support can vary from each site, so check out their contact pages or FAQs to make sure they've got the basics there like email, telephone or live chat. It's sometimes worth trying to contact customer services first to see how well they respond to you before you deposit!
Chat rooms and chat hosts - If you're a social animal, make sure there are chat hosts and chat rooms to your liking. You can sometimes find newbie rooms or free bingo rooms to try out before you deposit and play for real, so you can check out how friendly the other players and chat hosts really are!
Why play on a new bingo site?
New bingo sites are hot property amongst bingo players; there’s always a mad rush to see what the latest sites can offer… but why? You might love your well-established bingo site, and rightly so. What makes new bingo sites so popular anyway?
There are a tonne of reasons why playing on a new bingo site is great fun…
Be the first to test the site - Don’t you hate it when there’s a brand-new film you want to see, and someone spoils it for you? Get ahead by exploring new bingo sites before anyone can tell you all about it and ruin the surprise. You can try out the site for yourself without having any preconceived ideas about it, and if there’s something you don’t like, you could even drop the management an email with your suggestions. New sites are still trying to find their feet, and they might be glad of some feedback from players to help them get those early stages just-so.
Be the first to tell your friends - All hail the bingo king/queen!

What makes a new bingo site?
New bingo sites are launched all the time and we aim to review them as soon as they're out. Most new bingo sites are developed on the popular software platforms like Playtech (Virtue Fusion), Dragonfish, 15 Network bingo (Jumpman Gaming) or a unique proprietary platform.
You can also find New Free Bingo Sites and New No Deposit Bingo Sites here at OhMyBingo.
What is a redesigned bingo site?
It's not uncommon to find bingo sites relaunching with new designs or even moving platforms from when they originally launched. For example, Foxy Bingo originally launched on the Dragonfish platform and then famously switched to the Cozy Games software in 2018.
