Description
Step into the limelight – it’s your turn to take centre stage with X Factor Bingo! This special room has been created in partnership with the hit Saturday night ITV talent show and is brought to you exclusively by well-established operator Mecca, one of the UK’s biggest bingo brands.
This game is a great way to enjoy all the fun, drama and excitement of one of telly’s biggest programmes, even when it’s not on air. And with jackpots and the unique Judges’ Desk feature, there’s more cash up for grabs with this game than ever before, so you’re definitely on to a winner.
Finally, as players have come to expect, X Factor Bingo is available on desktop and mobile.
How to play
Shimmy into this room between 10 am and midnight (stars don’t need to rise early after all), seven days a week. Tickets start from 0.05 credits.
As usual with online bingo, there are rewards for marking off Full House, with that jackpot 500 credits at the time of writing. There are also prizes for marking off a single or two lines, with prizes shared if there is more than one winner.
Special features
Jackpots
There are four jackpots on offer on the Judges’ Desk feature described below.
The Judges’ Desk feature
The judges have a special ticket concealed behind their table. Complete it for one of the biggest available wins in X Factor Bingo. The final Full House call can mark off a number in this round, rewarding you with a fiver’s bonus.
Complete one line of the judges’ ticket for a 50 credit reward (at the time of writing) or complete two for a tidy 100 credits. Reach Full House on this ticket and you win the 500 credit jackpot.
Return to Player (RTP)
RTP or Return to Player is expressed as a percentage and essentially indicates how much money a player can expect to win back each time, relative to the sum staked. These figures are not always published for bingo games, for various reasons, but tend to hover at around 80%.
Verdict
You should be in for a treat and heaps of fun if you’re already a fan of the show, although you don’t have to be one to enjoy the game. And Mecca, a household name in Britain since the 1960s, offers a vibrant community alongside generous bonuses and promos.
These have included special offers to celebrate a new series of X Factor kicking off on TV and celebrating the show on Saturday nights during a season with special games, and prizes including TVs and holiday vouchers.
What’s more, the brand is licensed in the UK and by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission. Meanwhile, its awards include the WhichBingo 2018 accolades for best customer service and most socially responsible operator. (It won the former category again in 2019.)
Once you’re signed up with Mecca, if you really enjoy the TV-themed tie-ins, you can always hop over to the bingo versions of Britain’s Got Talent and Deal or No Deal any time you fancy a change.
So take X Factor bingo for a whirl around the shiny floor, and see what you reckon. Don’t forget to let us know how you got on.
