About
Bertie the Butterfly used to be the mascot for Butterfly Bingo when it first fluttered onto the online bingo scene in March 2014. However, Bertie was removed from the home page following changes to the rules and regulations about gambling sites holding appeal to those under the age of 18.
As one of the many Dragonfish sites now available online, you could be forgiven for thinking that you know exactly what the site has to offer. In part, you are probably right, but this site has a little more than most to offer by way of promotions and Star Rewards. The home page has a summer vibe to it with bingo balls frolicking in a meadow and dew-covered leaves homing cute little ladybirds. The colour scheme and the overall aesthetic is pleasing to the eye, and the welcome bonus available to new players, pleasing to their bingo budget!
There has been a change of management over the years and when Silverspin took over from Gaming Realms, some of the exclusivity was lost. That said, sites from Silverspin Media on this network can offer a little more than the standard brand on the same network. This makes sites like this stand out from the crowd.

When you make your first deposit of £10 or more you will find yourself the recipient of a hybrid style bonus. This bonus gives you a little something for bingo AND a little something for slots on top of your initial deposit.
You will receive a £20 bingo bonus and 20 free spins!
Wagering Requirements
In relation to the wagering requirements for the bonus you receive as a new player to Butterfly Bingo, there’s nothing unusual in them.
The bingo wagering is 4x the value of the bonus that you are awarded on your initial deposit and 80x any winnings derived from the free spins given. Your free spins will only be in your account for seven days, if you haven’t used them in this time then they will be forfeited. They are added as soon as you make a successful deposit to your account.
Check the terms and conditions of the bonus to see which games contribute 100% towards meeting the wagering requirements because not all do.

Depositing options at Butterfly Bingo are the same as any other Dragonfish network site. Seven different options are available, only one of which cannot be used by players in the UK.

Promotions
The promotions page at Butterfly Bingo is accessible from the home page and can be viewed even before you register an account. For new players, this means a chance to have a look at just what is on offer to complement the excellent selection of bingo and slot games.
Below are just a couple of examples taken from the page at the time of compiling our review (April 2021). Please be aware that this site often up the ante a little by changing up its promotions so their page is worth a regular visit to see if anything new and exciting has been added.
- Star Rewards – When you deposit and wager at least £20 in any given week at this site you will earn rewards. The more you deposit, the more you will be rewarded. This includes bonus spins, reward wheel spins, and bingo tickets.
- Monthly Draw – On the 16th of every month, at 9 pm, a new prize can be won in a special room. You don’t buy tickets though, you are awarded free tickets and entry is by invitation only.
- Late Night Show – This is a game that has a limited number of players allowed to participate and it’s first come, first served to get a ticket for a share of the £100 jackpot. This site is also home to a selection of no-cost bingo games and a whole plethora of jackpots. Check out the main lobby for more details of these.
Bonus Codes
Unlike other sites from Silverspin, we could not find a dedicated Butterfly Bingo bonus codes page.
Like many sites that use bonus codes as a promotional tool, if you register to receive marketing material from this site, it may be that you find you are sent one by email, SMS, or text.
Should we be offered any exclusive codes for our readers, they will be published in this area of our review.
Game Selection
When you first enter the lobby of Butterfly Bingo you are presented with the upcoming bingo games and the top pick of slots. Scroll further down the page and you can see other types of slot categories available too.
To the left of a screen is a menu that gives you the options of bingo, slots, rewards, offers, and your inbox. If you opt for bingo you are taken to the main bingo lobby and it is here you can see the different categories for bingo. These help you navigate to an area that meets your gaming requirements.
This site hosts four different bingo variants; pattern and five-line 75 ball games, 90 ball games, and 52 ball bingo. All of the rooms are clearly marked with a selection of details including the game’s jackpot amounts, the progressive jackpot value if the room has one, the game type, and the number of players in the room. If a chat host is currently working in the room, their name will also be shown on the room information.
Head to the slots lobby and like the bingo lobby, this is split into various categories. There are over 400 different slot games available as well as scratchcards and Slingo. New games are added regularly so whether you are a fan of the classic slots, or prefer something a little more up-to-date, there will be a title for you. NetEnt, Eyecon, Microgaming, Slingo, Yggdrasil, and many more developers have their hand in the slots portfolio here.

TV Adverts
We’re not entirely sure when the Butterfly Bingo TV advert was first shown on television, but we can tell you that it hasn’t been seen for quite some time. We believe it was in the summer of 2015 that this brand launched its commercial, but like many other sites, changes introduced regarding advertising online bingo or any form of gambling have meant most choose not to use this medium to promote their product.
Below is the last commercial for this site:
If they do update their television commercial, details will be available in this section of our review.
Review Summary
Summary
The attention to detail, the loyalty program, a monthly prize draw, free bingo before you even deposit, and a trusted software platform and network all combine to see Butterfly Bingo awarded a 4-star rating from us. It maintains the integrity of the network that it sits on, provides games that we all know and love, yet still manages to stand out from the rather large crowd. We think it’s worth a flutter here.
