how to play electronic bingo

What is electronic bingo?

Much like traditional bingo, electronic bingo follows the same basic rules. Players buy a credit slip from the cashier however instead of dabbing numbers on paper, players log on to electronic bingo terminals and “dab” at cards on a touch screen.

The best part about electronic bingo terminals is the “self dab” tracking feature. As numbers are called, players select the corresponding keys on the electronic bingo screen. The “self dab” tracking feature will automatically scan the player's bingo cards to check if the player has the number.

This tool is a way to try and help players from missing out on a potential “Bingo” win.

If a card wins a Bingo, the player will still need to call "Bingo" and verify their winning card. Players still need to ensure that the caller hears them call “Bingo” and stop the game.
