About
This is a completely free online bingo machine that allows you to play a full-fledged lottery just by using your browser. There is no need to install any troublesome apps.
In addition to the general 75-ball bingo (B-I-N-G-O), it also features 90-ball bingo and a "custom mode" where you can enter your favorite characters such as participant's name or prize name to draw a lottery. Enliven your event with rich presentations using voice reading (Web Speech API) and sound effects.
It also has the ability to automatically generate and print bingo cards (PDF) for players. Since it is completed within the browser without any communication, your progress is always automatically saved, so you don't have to worry about closing the page by mistake.
