Redbus bingo has both progressive and guaranteed jackpot games to choose from, and all guaranteed jackpot games have prebuys. There are also free bingo guaranteed jackpot games with prebuys available (for registered players) Read more below about Redbus bingo's jackpots games. You can also check out the Redbus bingo games by clicking here to get to the Red Bus bingo games page which has sections for all of Red Bus' bingo games. For more details on the special jackpot and prebuy games check out the entries for the individual games on the Redbus bingo promotions page.
Progressive jackpots
Progressive jackpots increase their prize pool every time they are not won, so the possible jackpot amount increases until they are won (at which point they reset to a certain seed amount, that is still worth winning). You can check the current level of the possible jackpot win in the room itself as you are playing.
Double Decker: 90 Ball Progressive Jackpot
Double Decker is the name of Red Bus bingo's 90 Ball Progressive Jackpot. It can be won during all 90 Ball games - there isn't a special progressive jackpot room, just play any 90 ball bingo game! To get the jackpot you have to cover your full card in 37 calls or less. Do that and the progressive jackpot, plus that specific game's jackpot, are yours. 38 calls or more and you just get the usual prize, and the progressive grows a bit for next time. When the jackpot is won, it starts again from £100. The current value of the progressive jackpot prizes are visible in the top right hand corner of the bingo lobby and rooms as you play - the banner swaps between the Double Decker prize amount and the London Eye prize amount.
London Eye: 75 Ball Progressive Jackpot
London Eye is Redbus' 75 Ball Progressive Jackpot. This progressive can be won when a player bingos on the special London Eye pattern (which is 16 slots to daub) in 45 calls or less. From 46 calls or more, the winner only gets the jackpot for that specific game and the progressive amount will keep on growing. When the jackpot is won it will start growing again from £150. The current value of the progressive jackpots are shown in the top right of the bingo lobby and game rooms.
Guaranteed jackpots
Guaranteed jackpot games are where the jackpot prize is fixed, and gets won every time the game runs. On Redbus bingo some guaranteed jackpot games are free! So you can have a chance at a prize amount without spending any money. All guaranteed jackpots on Redbus have prebuys available so you can buy tickets in advance. Also, these prebuys are possible earlier than most of the 'usual' bingo games which is nice if you want to play in a big jackpot game but won't be able to be at your computer when it runs. The pre-buy rooms show the time & day in which the game will play so you can pick your games and plan them.
Note that there are a few terms and conditions that apply to all of these guaranteed jackpot games:
- If there is more than one winner, the monetary value of the prize will be split equally amongst the winners.
- By accepting the prize, winners are required to provide photos of themselves and a testimonial.
- Prize will be credited into winner's account immediately after winning the game.
- Only funded players are eligible to play in these games except the 200 free and 300 free rooms, where for a limited time unfunded players can play in those rooms (only).
Free bingo
Note: You have to be a registered Redbus player to play these free jackpot games obviously, but for a limited time only unfunded players can also play on the 200 free and 300 free rooms only. This is an opening offer as Redbus Bingo is a fairly new site, so take advantage of it. I am not sure when these games will revert to funded players only - the 500 free room has reverted to funded only already. All these free bingo games are 90 ball bingo.
200 FREE
The 200 free room, so named because there is £200 available in prizes in this free to play bingo room. This room runs daily at 8:15 pm UK time in the '200 free room' under the 'free zone' tab.
