About
‘You don’t have to be nutty to play at this site, but it helps’ wouldn’t be a great advertising slogan for Nutty Bingo and thankfully, that’s not what they went with when they launched in 2012! The tagline for the brand now is ‘Nutters only’, one that suggests that you have to be a bit mad to play there – but not because it’s a bad site, we suspect because of the banter in the chat rooms.
When they first opened to players, they offered something a little more with an initial deposit of £10; a free gift! However, it wasn’t long before that offer was replaced with something more industry standard.
You might be entering a ‘nuthouse’ when you sign up to play here, but that does not mean that they have scrimped on the quality or choice of games available. There are all the usual suspects with bingo and slots choice, and these are complemented with a decent loyalty programme (Star Rewards), free bingo games, and some big-money jackpot games.
The site sits on a trusted network and is powered by popular software so you are guaranteed a safe and secure gaming environment at which to enjoy your favourite games.

Welcome Offer
Before you deposit at Nutty Bingo, you can access the Freemium room at the site. This room hosts a free bingo game once a week, a 75 ball coverall game with a £150 jackpot.
A first deposit of £10 or more will see you awarded a £20 bingo bonus and 20 free spins on the NetEnt game, Aloha! Cluster Pays.
This is the maximum bonus that you will be awarded; a higher deposit amount of the minimum required will not see you awarded a higher bingo bonus or more free spins.
Wagering Requirements
The wagering requirements on both aspects of the new player welcome bonus from Nutty Bingo are standard for Grand Battery Holdings operated bingo sites. For bingo, the wagering required is 4x the amount of the bonus.
For the free spins that are awarded, you will not receive any winnings generated until after they have all been used. When this has happened, these will be converted to bonus funds and carry wagering requirements of 80x the winning amount.
Not all games contribute the same value towards the wagering requirements so it is worth reading the terms and conditions of the bonus.
Deposits and Withdrawals
To deposit into your account at Nutty Bingo you have the following options available to you:
- By telephone on 0800 901 2510 from the UK
- Debit cards
- PayPal (only for UK players)
- Apple Pay (only for UK players from an Apple device)
The minimum deposit and withdrawal amounts are £5 but to receive the welcome offer for new players, a minimum deposit of £10 is required.
Promotions
From the main lobby, when you have logged in to your account, there is a section labelled ‘Offers’. It is in this area that you will find details of the current offers and deal available from Nutty Bingo. These include the welcome offer for new players and a selection of the jackpots available at the site.
Some of the other deals are time-limited so it is worth checking the page yourself to see what the offers are at the time of your visit.
Below are just a couple of those available at the time our review was compiled in May 2021:
- Wacky Wings Prize Night – Every Monday and Sunday, if you can bingo in 54 calls, you get to choose your own prize from a Bingo Pack (£50 bingo bonus + 30 free spins), £40 cash, or a tangible prize from the Prize Mountain.
- Monthly Giveaway – On the 16th of each month, at 9 pm, there is a special game that plays in the Prize Room. Tickets are not for sale but are awarded via Super-star Wheel spins, promo codes, or the Rewards Wheel. The prize changes each month and is a tangible one, not a cash prize.
Bonus Codes
At Nutty Bingo they have a page called ‘Promo Codes’ found in the promotions section of the site. This has a bonus code for every day of the week

Bingo and Slots Games
From the main lobby at Nutty Bingo, you have the choice from the left-hand menu of Bingo, Slots, Rewards, Offers, and Inbox.
Bingo Choice
The bingo lobby is set out with easy-to-follow navigation. You can choose from 75 ball, 90 ball, Daily Jackpots, Bingo Roulette, Specials, Free, Invite Only, Weekend Tournament, or All. You also have a search feature if you are looking for a room by name.
The site is home to four different types of bingo and these are 75 ball games as both pattern (75-24) and five-line bingo (75-25), 90 ball games, and the 52-5 version of the game. Each room clearly shows which game type is hosted in each. Other details that are shown include the number of players and the jackpot value.
Slots Choice
Like the bingo lobby, the slots lobby is set out in a way that makes everything easy to locate. The headings are Popular, New, Jackpots, Slots, Slingo, The Big £120K, Drops and Wins, All, and the search function.
There are plenty of different instant win games available under the slots section with many of the most popular software providers having their titles in amongst the extensive list available. Some of the developers who have their name in the hat here are Big Time Gaming, Eyecon, IGT, Microgaming, NextGen, Pragmatic Play, Random Logic, and Red Tiger Gaming. There are several others also in amongst the mix of instant wins.
Whatever your preference for slots, whether it’s the older style games from Eyecon or something a bit more graphically pleasing, there is something for you in the section of the site. Many of the slots have bonus features that offer extra multipliers, free spins, or avalanche winnings.

TV Adverts
When Nutty Bingo launched in 2012, it wasn’t long before the brand took to our television screens to promote its brand-new site. Whilst many sites haven’t bothered with TV adverts, this site started with a bang, even if the commercial wasn’t the most interesting. The woman in the advert was a tad annoying!
We haven’t seen anything more by way of TV commercials since the original but should they opt to promote themselves using this medium again in the future, we will update the details.
Review Summary
Summary
We love the kooky clown who welcomes you to Nutty Bingo as it gives a sense of fun about the site as soon as you land here. There are many features of this brand that we really liked including the free bingo with no deposit required, bingo and slots covered in the welcome package, and a bonus code for every single day of the week. For these reasons, we have awarded the brand an impressive 4.5-star rating.
