Bingo jackpots have definitely increased throughout the years. Bingo started its humble beginnings in carnivals and county fairs, soon after spreading through churches as fund raising events. In these early days, jackpots could be as small as 2-5 dollars. Some churches even offered for players to donate their winnings back to the church for a tax free donation. As popularity grew, so did the number of clubs and the size of the winnings. Over time jackpots grew and could be from the hundreds to thousands of dollars. In today’s age, bingo is now being offered online for players from all over the world. Jackpots can now go up into the millions.
Most clubs offer jackpots based upon the number of cards purchased. Therefore,, the more players, the higher the winnings. Online gaming sites can often have many players since people can play from anywhere in the world and all be in the same place at once. At the same time, local clubs now offer casino style bingo halls that sometimes have thousands of visitors a night. Two of the biggest jackpots ever won were received in the spring of 2008. One was won online and the other in a local bingo hall. This shows either way you play, you can be a big winner.
There are a lot of bingo clubs that now offer higher stakes due to the variety of games available. When playing online players can choose 90, 80, or75 ball games that aren’t usually offered locally. These games offer more ways to bingo off of the same card. Clubs are also now offering progressive pots, where the stakes go up with each game played until someone wins it all. While others are offering special session bingo, where a continuous game is played over a span of nights or weeks, with on final winner in the end. These new variations of the age old game can require more commitment and purchase of cards, but can pay off in the end if you are the one to yell bingo.
Many online bingo sites are also offering bonus winning just for playing. For example if you play a set number of games or spend a set amount of money, they give you a bonus just for playing. These bonuses can be as small as two to five dollars, but you can buy the next card on the house to try again.
