Hippo Bingo

Introduction

Hippo Bingo comes with a theme that draws inspiration from the open grounds as much it does from the deep depths of online bingo. The stage is set with a mixture of colours and background pictures that bring in a feel of tranquillity and excitement to mind. Founded in 2011, the site has established itself as one of the top bingo locations in the Dragonfish network.

Home to both their own and shared rooms, this online bingo site won’t run out of games to display any time soon. And that goes for slots, jackpots and Slingo titles too. To speed up the experience of exploring all these games the site offers considerable bonuses and other promotions.

Secure, safe and supported

Being regulated by the Gibraltar Gaming Commission and the UK Gaming Commission means that Hippo Bingo functions under two of the strongest licenses in the industry. These not only ensure that the servers are properly audited and tested, but also that the players are bestowed rights that protect them. Responsible gaming tools are present too.

For any technical or administrative issues the first stop should always be the FAQ. Secondly, once you log in you can access a series of useful articles via your own account…

...and if that doesn’t solve your issue you are left with three options. First, you can contact the customer support team via email. You can expect a response in 72 hours maximum, which is a bit too long waiting period for our liking. Secondly, UK players can call a toll-free number, whilst players outside the UK have to foot the bill. Finally, there is also a support room that all players can reach once they have logged in. Wait times aren’t considerable, and it's usually easy and fast to get a response this way.

From promo codes to bingo tournaments

We’re going to touch the rewards system a bit later in the review, because it’s quite extensive in its own right. But before going there, players should check out the amazing promos that this bingo site offers.

New players get their hands in bingo cash and extra spins. The spins come with ridiculous wagering requirements, which practically makes them worthless. And on top of that they come with win limits too.

It’s a nice way to get to know a slot, but don’t expect to cash out on those bonuses.

That said, the bonuses aimed at bingo games don’t generally come with such limitations. They also offer a lot more variety, by including free tickets, extra tournaments and mystery jackpots for depositing players are all intriguing encounters.

Tip: Remember to check the offers page before depositing, as Hippo Bingo offers deposit codes that change every week.

Banking Deposit/Withdrawal

• Total number of active payment methods is limited to five per player.
• Paypal and Apple Pay are only available to UK players.
• Players can change their daily, weekly and monthly deposit limits via the cashier.
• When making a withdrawal the money is first matched to all the methods that were used to make deposits. Any money that is left after this can be withdrawn to whichever method the player chooses.
• Players can request up to ten withdrawals in one day.
• There are no fees for either deposit or withdrawals, sans certain special cases.

Games

90 ball bingo and 75 ball bingo are the two most popular bingo variants available. You can also find the occasional room with 52 ball bingo, which is quite different from the norm. Some rooms might offer a slightly different variation on these ball setups, such as only having 24 numbers on a card instead of the usual 25.

The most active rooms run a game every few minutes, whilst guaranteed and mystery jackpots or weekend tournaments only run on the specified times. During busy periods there are a dozen or more rooms running games simultaneously, so you’re really spoiled for choice here.

The jackpots don’t quite reach the million pound specials that some other sites offer, instead opting for more manageable sums that are still a delight to pocket. If you’re looking for bigger pots, the online slots section with progressive jackpots is a good choice.

Depending on luck, there might be promotions from software providers like Pragmatic Play, whose mega-tournaments offer prizes easily running into tens of thousands.

Games like Shaman’s Dream, Enchanted Prince, Mega Fortune, Fluffy Favourites, Millionaire Genie, Twinkle Jackpot, Divine Fortune and Wish Upon a Jackpot form but a small part of the collection here.

Before moving onto the slots, you might want to take a look at the slingo games. Book of Slingo, Monopoly Slingo, Sling Reel Extreme, Slingo Reveal and many other titles offer a combination of bingo and slot gaming.

Whilst there are no table games, there are literally hundreds of slots to enjoy. You could play a different game between every bingo game you’ve enjoyed, and still have a long way to go before reaching the end of selection. Especially as Dragonfish adds new games to the mix constantly.

Popular Online slots - Starburst, Lost Island, Rainbow Riches, Fruit Blast, Irish Luck, 99 Time, Twinkle, Stampede, Reel King, Piggy Payout, Sizzling Hot Deluxe, Cleopatra, The Goonies, 300 Shields, Medusa, Dream Diver.

Mobile Overview

It’s no surprise that a bingo site that organizes raffles that sometimes have smartwatches and latest smartphones as prizes also comes with full mobile support. Does the site work on a smartwatch? We’re not quite sure about that.

Loyalty Program

After checking out the offers all players should head to the rewards section. You’ll soon notice that this is the real benefit of playing at Hippo Bingo. Players can get access to following:

• Bonus extra spins
• Spins on the rewards wheel
• Special tickets
• Speed vouchers
• Spins on the Superstar wheel
• Tickets for the big jackpot rooms

The two different rewards wheels open up a whole other world of rewards, with even more bingo tickets, extra spins, bonuses, prizes and even cash up for grabs.

Conclusion

All the benefits of being part of a large network and enough personality to stand out amongst a mass of other sites. The unique touch still needs a bit of work (seriously, where’s that hippo?) but otherwise we don’t have a bad word to say about Hippo Bingo. A good place to fill your bingo cards!
