WTG Bingo

According to the ever-reliable Urban Dictionary, WTG is either an earnest “Way to Go” or a sarcastic “Wow, that’s great”, which I’m sure never gets confusing. I think ambiguous acronyms are responsible for more arguments and break-ups than Monopoly and mothers-in-law combined.

WTG Bingo is the “way to go” kind. It’s a Jumpman Gaming casino with a stylish comic-book design that reminds me somewhat of Wink Bingo. It’s not quite as in-your-face or even as effective, but it looks good and I prefer this simple approach to the over-the-top and poorly designed themes seen on some other Jumpman Gaming casinos.

Welcome Offer

WTG Bingo offers all new players a spin of its Mega Wheel as soon as they sign up and deposit at least £10. If you have played any other Jumpman Gaming casinos in the past, including Aladdin Slots and Rocket Bingo, you’ll have a good idea of what to expect. If not, here’s a quick rundown:

• The wheel contains various segments, and you win the thing you land on
• The biggest prize offers 500 free spins on Fluffy Favourites
• Other prizes include a £10 Amazon voucher
• The wagering requirement is 65x and applies to all free spin winnings, but not the voucher
• You can’t win more than the total value of your lifetime deposits

The latter term is often overlooked, but it’s arguably the most important. It means that if you deposit £10 and get 500 free spins, you can’t win and collect more than an additional £10, as that’s your “lifetime deposit” total. It effectively turns the bonus into a 100% matched deposit offer with a unique slant.

The good thing is that you will encounter the Mega Wheel again in the future. It is incorporated into the WTG Bingo loyalty program, whereby you complete challenges to win trophies and earn additional wheel spins when you advance through the levels. As you will have played more and likely deposited more by this point, the aforementioned term is a little less restrictive and you can claim more from the wheel.

That doesn’t help you much with the welcome bonus, but as I said, it’s best to think of it as a free spin matched deposit bonus. Also, the cap doesn’t take effect until you clear the wagering requirements, so any additional funds you claim from the free spins will help you through the wagering period.

There’s also a chance you’ll win the Amazon voucher, of course, and in my opinion, it’s the best prize of the lot. It might not seem as enticing as 500 free spins, but there are no wagering requirements or other catches, and if you only deposit £10 or so to get it, you won’t have much to lose.

Other Promotions

WTG Bingo has an excellent selection of loyalty promotions. In addition to the loyalty program mentioned above, there are regular giveaways, real money tournaments, free spins, reload promotions, and more.

The giveaways in particular are what stand out to me. They are one of the things I love the most about Jumpman Gaming websites, as there’s always something to win. At the time of writing, you can win a Nintendo Switch, but in the past, it has offered everything from Apple iPhones and smartwatches to clothing and holidays.

Slots and Bingo Games

You will find over 1,000 games on WTG Bingo. Despite the name, it’s not exclusively a bingo site. It does have a handful of top bingo rooms, and as these connect across a wide network, there is never a shortage of players or prizes. You can play games at any time of the day and tickets are available from just a few pence.

I wouldn’t rank the offering as highly as sites like Foxy Bingo, which is much more diverse and has regular bonuses, but it’s certainly enough to keep bingo fans happy and it helps that there are hundreds of slots, number games, table games, and even live casino games to go along with them.

It’s fully mobile-compatible and instant play. Everything is also neatly laid out, with no endless pop-ups or sliders getting in the way as seems to be the norm elsewhere.

Depositing and Withdrawing

WTG Bingo accepts debit cards, PayPal, Neteller, Skrill, and Pay By Mobile. With the exception of the latter, which charges £2.50, all of these methods are fee-free for deposits. The same can’t be said for withdrawals though, as WTG Bingo charges £2.50 per transaction.

This fee applies across the Jumpman Gaming network. It’s something I have complained about countless times before so I won’t repeat those issues here, but it’s a frustrating term and means that if you withdraw £10, you will lose 25% of your winnings.

It’s less of an issue if you’re withdrawing hundreds of pounds at a time, but it’s still a fee that you shouldn’t have to pay and one that doesn’t exist on the vast majority of sites. Withdrawals are also a little on the slow side, which doesn’t help.

WTG Bingo Review Summary

WTG Bingo is a simply designed, bonus-heavy site that doesn’t disappoint when it comes to games and giveaways. There’s a lot to like, but there are a few annoyances as well, most of which relate to the deposits and withdrawals, including the unnecessary withdrawal fee and the fact that they can take several days to process cashouts.
