If you’re new to the world of online bingo or assessing a new operator, you may be understandably reluctant to part with real money before you’ve had the chance to get to grips with things.
The good news is you don’t have to.
Our guide to the best online bingo with no deposit
Choose free no deposit bingo games and you can try out different variations without the risk or having to pay a penny in deposits. In an increasingly competitive marketplace, this is becoming ever more possible, with more operators offering it for at least some of their bingo variations.
You usually have to register a few details before you can start playing. Equally, as always, it’s worth checking the terms and conditions of any new operator in advance, too. Additionally, you may find you need to register card details, so be sure you’re happy doing this and don’t forget to cancel them if you want to leave.
But if you play your cards (or bingo balls!) right, you should be able to withdraw any bonuses and our winnings without problems, and without having spent a thing.
Bonuses and wagering requirements explained
While a welcome bonus is typically a percentage of your first deposit, some sites offer a no deposit bonus. This means you get some bonus dosh just for opening an account – no money has to change hands. This can be up to a tenner, while other ‘no deposit’ offers may involve free whirls on slots.
Look out for wagering requirements before getting stuck in with a new website – this is how much a player needs to spend or play before they can withdraw their winnings.
It’s typically expressed as a multiple of the bonus offer. So if you claim a tenner on signing up and there's an x5 wagering requirement, you’d need to spend £50 overall before you can make a withdrawal. These vary significantly from one website to another.
