No Deposit Bingo Sites - December 2024

Welcome to our No Deposit Bingo Sites page for the UK in 2024. New players can enjoy playing bingo without having to make a deposit, rather just adding their card details.

No Deposit Bingo Sites – Update: December 2024

If you want to join a new bingo site and play bingo without making a deposit, then no deposit bingo will be great for you! This category of bingo is particularly popular with players in the UK and it isn’t hard to see why.

However, it’s important to know what you’re getting into when signing up to a no deposit offer. There are often all sorts of wagering rules required, which can prove difficult when you want to withdraw any winnings. As we move to a period of greater fairness, no deposit offers are getting better on the whole. There are fewer of them and the wagering requirements are less onerous. Perhaps, you don’t even care about that. Perhaps, you just want to get a no deposit offer because you like the look of it. It’s a great opportunity to check out the chat rooms, usability and potential for further play on sites.

We’re seeing a general trend this year to better and fairer no deposit bonuses. They may not be as big as they were in the past. But often, they represent a better deal for the player.

About No Deposit Bingo Sites

When new bingo sites launch a welcome offer their main goal is to attract customers. Many will boast a no deposit offer to get as many new players to sign up as possible. It encourages these players to then stay around on the site, playing bingo games for money.

You may like the idea of being able to get a feel for a new site and play some games without making a real money deposit. And then if you do like the site, you can go ahead and deposit! If you don’t, then you can always move on to a different site that you prefer.

Theoretically therefore, it is in the sites’ best interest to provide great games, a good community feel, and attractive offers and promotions. These are the things that will keep a player coming back for more.

Types of No Deposit Bingo Sites

There are several forms of no deposit bonuses that you may come across while on your hunt for the best online bingo site:

No deposit cash bonus – Probably the best kind of no deposit bonus there is. This will usually be about £5-£15 of bingo bonus that you can spend on any bingo games (though there may be restrictions – check the site’s T&Cs before you sign up) and you will have a certain amount of time to use it. It is normally only valid for bingo games, not slots or casino. These are VERY rare these days,
Free spins – Some sites offer free spins on slots games when you sign up. Occasionally these will be spins that you can use across a variety of games, but you will usually be restricted to one game – some sites will let you choose one out of a selection.
Bingo tickets – This is like a more restrictive version of the no deposit cash bonus – this bonus will be given to you in the form of tickets for individual games. They will only be usable in particular rooms, and it may be at specified times.

We love a site that makes their new customers feel welcome. Of course, full terms apply and you can find all the details you need under the listing above.

Payment Methods

For the no deposit offer itself, it is likely you’ll have to register your debit card in order to claim the bonus.

There’s generally no difference between no deposit bingo sites and others when it comes to making a deposit, so you can expect to be able to use common payment methods such as debit cards, PayPal, Paysafecard, Skrill, Neteller, bank transfer, pay by phone, and more.

The Small Print

Of course, no deposit bonuses aren’t as simple as just being given free money to play with! There are plenty of rules and restrictions that come with no deposit bonuses, and depending on the site, some of them may be so strict that it’s almost not worth claiming the bonus at all.

Free bingo – Some sites allow you to sign up with your card details and start playing bingo right away – great! The catch? Often, free bingo games will only have tiny cash prizes, or prizes that are given as bonus. Your access to free bingo may also be limited – some sites only offer access to particular games at certain times, or your access may expire after a certain number of days from registration.
Wagering requirements – As with most bonuses, you’ll most likely have to wager your no deposit bonus several times before you can withdraw anything (even if you’ve made a minimum deposit). And the downside is that many sites actually have higher wagering requirements for no deposit bonuses than for other bonuses – for example, you may be required to wager the no deposit bonus six times compared to four times for a first deposit bonus.
Withdrawals – It’s incredibly rare that you’ll be able to withdraw winnings from games without having deposited. Often you’ll need to deposit a certain amount (and wager it several times) before you are allowed to withdraw any money.
Forfeits – If you decide you want to withdraw your winnings, you can generally make a deposit and take out your prize. But be prepared to sacrifice the rest of your bonus if you make the withdrawal before it’s all used up!
Time limit – Most bonuses don’t last very long. You’ll generally have about a week or so to use up your no deposit bonus before it expires – so get playing! The terms and conditions should state how long you have from sign-up before the bonus expires, so make sure to check them before you register.
Bingo tickets – With new tax regulations having kicked in in August 2017, many bingo sites have dropped their no deposit bonuses – some sites now only offer free spins or bingo tickets, which don’t face the same tax rules and which limit your options as you’re only allowed to use them on certain games. Still better than nothing, but it might mean that you won’t be able to try out certain bingo rooms or games before depositing.
Mobile play – Sometimes bingo sites won’t let you claim the no deposit bonus if you’re playing on your mobile – you’ll have to login to the site on desktop to claim it instead.

Features and Sites

The features that we know players are typically interested in are: how busy and lively will the site be? Is the bingo room screen clearly presented, and is the site easy to navigate in general? How high quality are the big money games and promotions? Are the side games and chat games any good? What are the chat hosts like? Are the other players fun to chat to? How is the customer service?

While it’s entirely possible to withdraw any winnings as cash, it should be noted that wagering requirements could mean that you need to play and make deposits for a long while before winnings can be withdrawn. Some players have been very lucky with no deposit bingo sites and won huge jackpots. Most however, may win modest amounts or sometimes nothing at all.

Other Information

Most sites required debit card details to be entered upon registration, but this is purely for verification purposes. No money will be taken from your bank account without your permission. This method is also used to stop people from claiming the welcome bonus multiple times.

Many sites offer alternative payments to cards, including Paypal and Paysafecard. This ensure your bank details are even more secure, due to the fact you don’t need to give out any information to sign up. However, you probably won’t be able to redeem a no deposit offer with an e-wallet.
