Sky Bingo has a good selection of jackpot games to choose from, as part of a bingo network the jackpot amounts, both guaranteed and progressive, can be large. They range from smaller jackpots in the penny bingo rooms, to the big network jackpots for the big prizes and there are progressives on offer in most regular bingo rooms too. Read more below about the selection of jackpot games at Sky Bingo.

Guaranteed jackpots

All guaranteed jackpot games are 90 ball bingo. Guaranteed jackpots are where the jackpot prize is fixed, and is won every time the game runs.

Daily Bingolinx games

There is £8,000 in guaranteed prize money to be won in the Bingolinx games on Sky, these are networked games so you get a lot of players. They are played in Sky Bingo's 90 ball bingo rooms at the following times: 12am (this is midday) for a guaranteed £1,500, 6pm for a guaranteed £2500 and 10:30pm for a guaranteed £4,000. Tickets are only 50p for each of these games, this being part of the benefit of the games being networked (more players means lower ticket cost for the same prizes!). There is a maximum of 72 tickets you can purchase per game. Sky call these games both Bingolinx and Bingo Linx so I think both names are valid.

Once a month, on the last Sunday of each month, there is an increase in the guaranteed jackpot prize pool for the Bingolinx game. This is called the Super Bingolinx game and takes place at 10.30pm. The prizepool is increased to £10,000 for this game so it is well worth playing. Tickets for this special game as well as the regular weekly Bingolinx games are available in advance for pre-buy, just go to the Sky Bingo home page - click here to get to Sky Bingo - click on promotions and then the game you are interested in (in this case the Bingolinx games).

Progressive jackpots

Sky Bingo has progressive jackpots in its main rooms, and also has them for all forms of bingo - 90 ball, 80 ball and 75 ball. Progressive jackpots are where if the jackpot isn't won, the jackpot prize pool increases in size. So the possible jackpot prize increases until it is won. When the progressive jackpot is won the prize amount resets to a set 'seed' amount (still worth winning) and starts growing again. The current amount of these progressive jackpots can be seen in the top right corner of the bingo room as you are playing. The different progressives available are listed below, and the trigger to win the jackpot is to get a full house (90 ball bingo) or a coverall (75 ball and 80 ball bingo) in a certain number of calls or fewer.

To check the ball call number go to the Sky bingo site - click here to get to Sky Bingo, click on 'Promotions' then click on 'Sky Bingo Jackpots' at the lower right of the page. The ball call number is the number of calls (or fewer) you have to make the full house (coverall) in to win the jackpot. The numbers are set fairly low so you have to be lucky to win the progressive jackpot, but this is so that the jackpot can grow high to make it a big prize when it is won. Note that the win criteria for jackpots is subject to change at short notice and without advance notification so do check on the Sky site if you want to know these. The number of ball calls does vary between these jackpots so the higher the ball call number the more likely the jackpot is to be won, but of course that means it isn't as big as it would have been if the ball call number was lower. Also bear in mind that the different types of bingo (75, 80 and 90 ball) have different numbers of slots to daub to get the full house or coverall!
