The winner of the WhichBingo Award 2021 for Best Bingo Site is Sun Bingo – the first time it has picked up the main award since 2010. The good news didn’t stop there for Sun Bingo as it went on to scoop two more major awards – Best Bingo Chat Team and Best Playtech Bingo Site. The change in fortunes for Sun Bingo coincides with the appointment of Adam Scott as Gaming Operations Director at NewsUK in May 2020, having moved from competitor Gamesys, operator of multi-award winning sites Heart Bingo and Jackpotjoy

 

Another big winner was an unexpected name: PlayOJO. This brand also picked up three prestigious awards, snatching them from under the noses of dedicated bingo sites. PlayOJO is the proud winner of the awards for Best New Bingo Site, Best Pragmatic Play Bingo Site and Best Slots Site. Of all the casino sites that have adopted online bingo over the last 18 months it is PlayOJO that certainly put its heart and soul into the product, rather than just having it sit on site as an additional plug-in. They players on the site have certainly shown their appreciation of its efforts.

The popularity of online bingo has soared in the last eighteen months during the pandemic, so it was also pleasing to see that hosting our ceremony virtually hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm of players who voted, with another huge number of votes cast again this year. With the game continuing to attract a much wider demographic of players than ever before, these awards enable us to recognise the hard work of all the best UK bingo sites around today.”
