Everything about online bingo: in person, remote, hybrid

“Online bingo” doesn't only mean bingo over the internet — it covers three use scenarios: fully in person (physical room, projected screen), fully remote (each player from their phone), hybrid (mix of in-person + remote). BingoShow handles all 3 natively.

Which format: loto 90, bingo 75, or express bingo?

BingoShow offers 4 native formats, picked when you create the session:

  • Loto 90 balls — traditional French format, 3 rounds (line / double / full house). For association, parish, school bingos.
  • Bingo 75 balls — US format, 5×5 cards with B-I-N-G-O letters. Faster, great for weddings/companies.
  • Bingo 80 — intermediate variant (4×4 cards), rarely used but available.
  • Bingo express 30 — ultra-short 5–10 min sessions. Perfect as a seminar ice-breaker.

See our full loto vs bingo comparison to pick the right format for your event.

Scenario 1 — 100% in person (classic room)

The most common case: physical audience in a room (village hall, town hall, parish, company seminar room). Theroom screen is projected on a projector or connected TV. Cards are printed as PDFs (generated by our generator). Players tick with markers. Automatic or manual draw, winning-card verification in 1 second via the unique printed number.

Scenario 2 — 100% remote (each player at home)

Each player receives a personalized access link that opens their digital card on their phone or computer. Real-time synced draw via WebSocket: when the host draws a number, all players see it simultaneously, wherever they are. Ideal for: distributed teams (kickoff, remote seminar), distant families (hybrid family reunion), charity events with national donors.

⚠️ Legal note: a fully-remote bingo open to the general public (public card sale) may be reclassified as online gambling, requiring an ANJ license. To stay within the association bingoframework, remote play must target a restricted circle (members, employees, identified guests).

Scenario 3 — Hybrid: in person + a few remote

Typical case: company kickoff with 80 people on site + 20 remote (foreign sites, absent colleagues). A wedding where a great-aunt in a care home watches from her tablet. A local charity event with a few national donors who want to take part remotely. BingoShow syncs the room screen and remote screens in real time, with or without audio.

Network drop, slowdown, outage: what happens?

BingoShow is built for network resilience: automatic reconnect on WiFi/4G drop, resync on recovery (missed draws are replayed chronologically on screen). If the host loses connection, the game state is preserved server-side — they resume exactly where they stopped. WebSocket architecture with HTTP long-polling fallback for restrictive corporate networks.

Hardware compatibility: which devices?

BingoShow works in any recent browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge — under 3 years old). Room display: connected TV (Samsung, LG, Sony), projector (HDMI cable from PC), Google Chromecast, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV. For hosts and players: PC, Mac, iPhone, Android, iPad. No app to install.

FAQ

Your questions, answered

What's the difference between loto, bingo and quine?
Same game, three regional names: bingo (North America, 75 numbers, 5×5 grid), loto (France, 90 numbers, 3×9 grid with “quine”, “double quine”, “full house”), quine (South-West and South-East France, equivalent to French loto). BingoShow supports all three formats.
Is online bingo legal in France?
Yes, as long as no money is wagered for monetary winnings — that would be a regulated gambling activity. Association bingos, school fairs, birthdays, company events with non-monetary prizes are perfectly legal. BingoShow only covers that use case: entertainment with in-kind prizes.
Does everyone have to be in the same room?
No. BingoShow works fully in person (everyone in the same room, projected screen), fully remote (each at home, cards on phone) or hybrid (live audience + remote, synced). The draw is the same for everyone, in real time.
How much does it cost to launch an online bingo?
Free to try (up to 20 cards / month). For a full event: €14 for a 30-day pass, no commitment (Pro plan), or €9 / month if you host regularly. Premium plan at €29/month for company needs (white-label, multi-room).
What devices do I need?
The card works on any phone, tablet or computer with a browser. The room screen works on TV, projector, Chromecast, Apple TV. Hosting is done from your phone. No app to install.
What happens if the connection drops?
The room screen holds locally for up to 30 seconds without losing the draw. If the drop lasts, a banner shows and resync is automatic on reconnect. No number lost.
