Get Minted Bingo is still available to players online but as the Internet bingo market has become more and more competitive, this brand simply doesn’t tick all the boxes that other brands on the same platform do. For this reason, unless the site has a makeover or changes in some drastic way, this review is now for information purposes only and will no longer be updated.
Please note that all banners and links direct you to Bubble Bonus Bingo, a superior brand offering the same overall gaming experience.

Get Minted Bingo has been around since 2005 and were actually one of the first ever sites launched by the Cashcade group, which is the same company behind Foxy Bingo. These days they are powered by the 888/Globalcom software and are one of the many sites on the Dragonfish network. Unfortunately they have not had the same success as Foxy Bingo and landing on the home page for the first time, you can’t help but feel that everything is looking rather dated.
The background to the homepage is plain black, which is a stark contrast to the rest of the site which is made up of blocks of bright pink, orange, red and blue. These blocks of colour are used to advertise their welcome offers, recent winners and a selection of their instant games. At the top of the page you have two menu’s, the top one that looks like a series of tabs, leads to the other Get Minted sites which includes instant wins, TV gameshow and casino. Below this is the actual menu for the bingo site and it’s always worth checking these as there is plenty of useful information to soak in.
Click on ‘Register Now’ button and you will be taken to the registration section. This is a one page process, where you will have to fill in your basic details such as name, address, email address and of course username, but this will need to be different to any other accounts you have on the network. You will need to enter your credit card information, but this is for security and age verification purposes only, so they won’t take any money until you are ready to deposit. When you do come to play for real, you will earn an average bonus on your first deposit, followed by reloads on all future deposits.
If you have played at any of the other 888/Globalcom powered sites, the lobby will feel very familiar. It is packed with information and games, with tabs leading to all of the different areas. You can see your game balance and instant game balance, and if you need to top up your account, you can access the banking area with a single mouse click. Everything is well laid out and extremely easy to navigate, you can see that the software has been tweaked over time, and it all works well with the minimum of fuss.
The rooms themselves use the networks standard layout and colour scheme, and if it was not for the Get Minted Bingo logo, you could be playing at any one of a dozen different sites. Nevertheless it’s all well designed with equal portions of the screen dedicated to your cards and the chat room. There are plenty of options built in to keep things interesting and the Chat Hosts do a good job of keeping everyone entertained. If you need any help or advice, there is a dedicated support room where you can speak to the hosts directly without any distractions.
The promotions are one of the highlights of Get Minted Bingo as they have a good mix of regulars, supplemented by monthly specials as and when they are needed. They give away over £6,000 each and every month through their free bingo games, and there are guaranteed cash jackpots seven nights a week. When they do run their bingo money tournaments, they tend to be based around the time of the years so you can expect to see them at Christmas and New Year etc. Add to this an impressive loyalty scheme, and they really do have something for everyone.
Get Minted Bingo are really letting themselves down. They have a long history and the backing of one of the better software providers and networks out there. Unfortunately other sites on the network look nicer and offer better bonuses. It would not take much for them to turn things around, but they definitely need to make more of an effort and give the place a new look and a sense of identity. With so much competition out there, brands such as Get Minted Bingo really need to work harder to get themselves noticed.
Get Minted Bingo Review – Bingo Games
Game Options
Get Minted Bingo runs on the 888/Globalcom software, and is home to 75 and 90 ball bingo, plus a range of exciting instant games and slots, all of which can be accessed via their own tab in the lobby and from within the bingo rooms. The software has been developed over many years and has been honed to perfection, so everything looks great, works well and gives you the chance to win big cash jackpots every time you log in.
The actual bingo rooms are well designed and include loads of options to customise your gameplay including best card sorting, animations, themes, price alerts and even a selection of dabber shapes and colours. In the chat room there are plenty of emoticons and acronyms for the most commonly used bingo lingo, and you can chance the size and colour of your font. One really nice feature is the ability to send your friends virtual gifts to mark special occasions.
Free Bingo
Get Minted Bingo give away over £6,000 every month through their free bingo. The great news is, they have games for both funded and none funded players, so everyone can join in the fun. If you have signed up but not yet deposited, you should make your way into the ‘Free-4-All!’ room. This room is open each day between 7am and 7pm, with games starting every eight minutes. Every one of these games gives you the chance to win £1 worth of bonus money.
If you are a funded player though, you can take part in these games, plus all of the games in the ‘Free Bingo Funded’ room. This room is open each evening between 4pm and 7pm, with games running every fifteen minutes. As these games are for funded players only, the prize up for grabs reflects this, so each one comes complete with a guaranteed £10 prize pot.
Jackpots
Get Minted Bingo is part of the Dragonfish network and has a schedule packed full of guaranteed jackpot games. It does not mater what time of the day you log in, you will never be far away from the chance of winning a pocket full of cash. Every night though, they host five special ‘Daily Jackpot’ games, and each one of these gives you the chance to win a share of £100.
That is not the end of the guaranteed jackpots though because on the 1st of every month, they host a ‘Lucky 7’s Jackpot’ game. Cards for this game cost just 7p each, and the lucky player that bingo’s on the number seven pattern, will take home £777. If however you prefer the 90 ball version of the game, you will enjoy the Mystic £555 that takes place every eleven days.
Loyalty
When you sign up for an account at Get Minted Bingo, you automatically become part of their Loyalty Programme. It is called Bingo Friends Forever and is based around five different levels. You will be awarded your first 1,000 points when you register, and after that you will earn points each time you refer a friend or purchase bingo cards.
Each 1,000 points you accumulate can be exchanged for £1 worth of bonus money, or traded in for rewards. As you play more and deposit more, you will progress through the different levels, and as you do you will unlock extra benefits including more free bingo, higher bonuses, improved promotions, monthly cash backs and even a personal VIP representative.
