Bingo Software
Behind the scenes of every online bingo site are the unsung heroes; the bingo software providers. These creators make the cogs that every bingo site uses to operate and offer games for them. Different companies offer different styles, layouts and games. A bingo site must decide what factors are most important to them, and pick a software provider they feel will best fit their needs.

Many will want to use software that connects them to a larger network. Bingo networks that share the same platform and server will find a more stable base from which to make profits. Although sites will have the same overall appearance to them, there is the possibility of customising the look and feel of any individual site.
Once you have visited a range of sites operated by differing companies, you will soon recognise the trademarks and unique features. Some sites even have their own unique software that they have developed themselves in house. Not so extreme are those sites that decide to use software that doesn’t share their player base with the rest of the network that the software is on.
Dragonfish, Virtue Fusion and Gamesys are just a few of the big online bingo software providers. You can browse our listings by provider with ease. Or read on to find out more!

Bingo Software
A company deciding to set up an online bingo site is just the beginning of the story for that site’s adventure.
About Bingo Software
When it comes to the theme, design and choice of games, the use of a software provider is needed.
The software providers of bingo sites essentially power all the bingo games you play. Therefore the brand and their features have a great impact on your gaming experience.
You might have noticed that there are distinct differences between the sites you play on. This is down to what software provider each bingo company decide to use to operate their site.
Top Names
There are probably over 85 online bingo software providers in existence, but there are an elite few at the top of the league table. The most common software provider is Dragonfish. Some of the other top names are Virtue Fusion and Gamesys.
Dragonfish is one of the largest providers in the industry, some say that the Dragonfish sites are too alike. Sites have their own home page designed, but all the other pages that cover promotions and other areas will be shared.
Most Dragonfish sites have the same promotions too, with the exception of Bingo Hollywood and the Ignite group of sites having unique promotions.
Due to the fact that there are so many sites on the Dragonfish network this can lead to all the sites feeling the same. But the promotions they do offer are usually excellent, with holidays being amongst some of the huge prizes they regularly offer.
Virtue Fusion is another popular choice for bingo sites. Owned by Playtech, this software offers players the ability to customise options such as sound, the dauber and aspects of the chat function. A site can be suited to the players’ personality and preferences this is undoubtedly one of the reasons for the success of Virtue Fusion software in the online bingo world. The software also accommodates for different languages and currencies.
One of the main positives of Gamesys software is that many of their sites have standalone software. So each Gamesys site will tend to look quite different to another, which gives them the reputation of creating unique and fresh sites; Sun Bingo and Fabulous Bingo being good examples.
Overall
There are plenty of other smaller software providers which have greater freedoms in terms of the look and feel of their sites, but it’s a riskier option as they aren’t protected by the security of a large network.
There are pros and cons to each online bingo software provider as a player using sites to enjoy games, and bingo companies also have their own reasons for deciding on which provider to use to power their sites. The best way to explore which style of sites suits your needs is to just start playing on a wide range as soon as possible.
