Glossy Bingo

Introduction

Glossy Bingo is the second branded online bingo site launched by Broadway Gaming Group, a company known for its high-quality sites. And indeed, Glossy Bingo packs a fine punch when it comes to all things glamorous – you may feel like a movie star visiting their lobby and playing their games.

The site has been operational since 2013 and has gone through considerable changes throughout the years. For example, the site originally started in the Microgaming bingo network, and in 2020 moved into the Pragmatic Play network. Makeovers and redesigns have kept the interface and site up to date.

Our Real Money Test

We put Glossy Bingo to a real money test. Our reviewer made a deposit of £150 via PayPal to play online bingo and slots in June 2022. The selection of games is impressive and includes bingo specials. Pragmatic Play provides the rooms while numerous studios provide a plethora of online slot games. Managing to score a win, the tester headed to the cashier and requested a withdrawal of £220.45p via PayPal, which was processed and paid in under 24 hours.

So what kind of gaming can you expect?

Branded, networked and exclusive rooms for online bingo, with a handful of ball variants available. Other games include a selection of slots, table games and scratch cards. It’s a well-rounded selection that concentrates on quality over quantity. The software in use ensures that playing is possible on all devices.

Promotions and bonus offers

The welcome offer opens the doors to the bingo rooms with the help of bingo cash. Regular deposit bonuses are sent to players via normal communication methods, such as emails or SMS.

However, at times the selection might seem a bit limited. At least when compared to the free tickets promotions that many other bingo sites come with. Luckily, there are VIP and special rooms available for regular players. These often come with jackpots that are considerably larger than normal. At other times, the selection seems to overflow with promotions.

Extra spins aren’t available all that often. To balance this, the site runs slot sprints, which are basically slot tournaments. The rewards from these often come as extra spins.

And then, players also have access to plenty of promotions that come via the Pragmatic Play platform. These can include massive tournaments and giveaways, playable across the whole network.

Excellent service

It doesn’t take much reading to notice that Glossy Bingo is regarded highly amongst its players. Just look at the player testimonials all over their site, and you can get a pretty good idea of what sort of playing experience you are about to enjoy.

Customer support is always within easy reach. Live chat is available 24/7, and so is email support. Live chat is obviously faster, but the emails don’t spend too much time waiting in the inbox either. Both the site and the customer service is only available in English.

Tip: Only deposits made via debit cards can be used to claim deposit bonuses.

Banking Deposit/Withdrawal

• A payment method cannot be shared across different accounts.
• If you seek to withdraw your full balance, and it is under the minimum withdrawal of £10, a £2 administration fee will be charged. Furthermore, this transaction can only be processed by contacting customer support.
• Withdrawals are generally free, but there might be a fee in certain rare cases. Players will naturally be informed of this.
• Players can make normal withdrawals even when promotions are active.

Games

Pragmatic Play’s bingo network has become one that can offer extremely high quality. It might not be quite where Microgaming’s bingo network was when it was closed down, but it’s well on its way there. Half a dozen rooms form the basis of the experience, occasionally complemented by special rooms.

The three main bingo variants available are 90 ball bingo, 30 ball bingo and 75 ball bingo. We’re looking for the bingo selection to expand in the future via new games. Variety is also brought into the game via other methods. For example with rooms that offer wins as extra spins on slots rather than just cash.

Ticket prices are very cheap, especially when compared to the rising progressive jackpots that are starting to benefit from larger and larger numbers of players.

Table games do not currently include live casino games, though that might be available in the future. Roulette and blackjack are available in dozens of varieties. They are joined by selected versions of Sic Bo, Baccarat and Dragon Tiger.

Video poker seems to be very popular at the site too. Players can enjoy titles like Double Double Bonus Poker, Deuces Wild Poker, Joker Poker and Aces & Faces Poker. Scratch cards form a similar group of interesting and rare games, such as Sure Win Scratch, Avalon Scratch, Immortal Romance Scratch, and Lost Vegas Survivors Scratch.

Online slots are obviously the biggest single group of games. The selection is pretty much limited to games from Microgaming. You might think that would be somewhat limiting, but given how the company has added dozens of smaller studios under their wing, you can be sure to enjoy a wide range of different slots.

Some of the favourites include Agent Jane Blonde, Break da Bank, Avalon, Aurora Wilds, Diamond Empire, Hitman online slot, Retro Reels, Shogun of Time, Untamed Giant Panda, Mayan Eagle Nobleways, Book of Atem Wowpot, Fortunium, Shaman’s Dream, Game of Thrones Power Stack, and hundreds of titles that fit in-between.

Mobile Overview

The site itself takes full advantage of modern discoveries, meaning that you can access the site with any device as long as it comes with a web browser. In this regard, it’s not that different from many other online bingo sites.

What does make it stand out are the bingo rooms that come with an entirely different look and feel when playing on smaller screens. The same experience, but in a different form. Something anyone interested in mobile gaming should definitely check out.

Loyalty Program

No information on a loyalty program is currently available.

Conclusion

Glossy Bingo has a long history with a future that looks bright. They’re part of a group of bingo sites that have chosen quality over quantity, with sites that are kept up to date by diligent staff. Customer service is definitely one of the plusses at this site. From time to time you might run into things like lack of bonuses, or lack of loyalty programs. However, with time these issues are always fixed. Get your cards ready and enjoy the excellent bingo rooms!
