Bingo and Online Bingo Statistics Revealed

It is estimated that the global gross takings of online bingo was half a billion dollars in 2006. This figure has grown dramatically since then and this is due to the advances in various technologies, allowing bingo fans to partake in the game from the comfort of their own homes.  Bingo is no longer a one directional game; the online version gives players the chance to chat, take part in tournaments, cash in on massive winnings and try out several variations of the up and coming game.

For women between the ages of 20 and 25, bingo has become an extremely popular leisure activity. This is more than likely due to such an age range operating both a hectic home life and a heavy workload.  Driving to an actual venue requires both time and organisation and is often not feasible for most due to other commitments.

It is believed that about 50,000 of the approximate three million land-based bingo players have in fact swapped to play bingo and a total of 90% of this figure are below the age of 50.  This is certainly brushing off the stereotype that bingo is only for the older generation.  Recent research has in fact revealed that there are only a very small number of bingo players over the age of 65.

It is thought that a total figure of 85% of online players are women. 
The online bingo market certainly has the potential to grow even more, as 85% of all bingo players choose to play online and some gaming fans even play every day.

In total there are an estimated 100 million Bingo players worldwide and 80% of this figure are women in the 30 - 50 age group, the remaining 20% are men in the same age range.
