No Deposit Bingo
Most of the new players are confused about the meaning of the term No Deposit Bingo. This is a scheme that is offered by most of the bingo sites of the US and UK. The purpose of this scheme is purely promotional and thus we can say that in some ways, the importance and glitter of this scheme is over-told by the websites on their home pages and in the ads that are displayed all over the internet.
Although, free bonuses offered by bingo sites are said to be same as real money, there are quite a few differences that set No Deposit Bingo and Real Money Bingo apart. Let’s understand them:
- Amount of Money: The amount of the bonus offered by most bingo sites to players on sign-up, is fixed. This is mostly around 15 pounds in websites based in the UK and $20 in websites in the US. This amount is of course very less as compared to the bonuses given in other gambling games like poker, but it is free money and thus is loved by all. When you are playing real money bingo, the amount that you can spend on playing games depends on your budget and willingness, however, in the case of no deposit bingo; the amount will be limited by the offer of the website.
- Types of games: Bingo sites do not let you play all the games with the free money they offer. This money is ‘trial money’ and is meant to ‘tease’ the player with the glimpses of all the goodies that he can get if he uses real money. And thus, most sites don’t let you play the best games with free money. If you play a few free games and you like what you see, then you can you can make an actual deposit to play the best games.
- Jackpots: If you think that you can win the pots with free money, you are wrong. No deposit bingo sites don’t let you play that big pot games. The maximum size of jackpot on which you can spend your wagers on is 50-100 pounds on most bingo sites. You cannot play for the big jackpots which can be as big as 20,000 or 30,000 pounds. You can only play to win thee jackpots if you make an actual deposit. This stands to be the most important difference between no deposit bonus bingo and real money bingo.
- Rewards: In case you win a reward by playing with the free money given to you by the bingo website, you cannot withdraw it immediately. You have to make an actual deposit in the site to claim that reward. However, if you were playing real money bonus, any rewards that you could have won would have been immediately transferred to your virtual account. Form this virtual account, in real money bingo; you can transfer this reward money into your bank account once you have spent your deposit amount and the amount of the deposit bonus.
Thus, though full of glitter and promise, free cash or no deposit bingo is not same as real money bingo. There are differences in the game play of both the types of bingo, which make the whole playing experience very different. If you are looking to play bingo to win rewards and make some good money, then you should go for real money bingo.
