Bubble Up Bingo takes the Double Bubble slot into a 90-ball room and adds two extra ways to win that have nothing to do with speed. Land a prize on 11, 22 or any other double, and it pays twice over. Finish the full house on 7 and a progressive jackpot comes with it.
It’s a Gamesys game, so you’ll find it at Double Bubble, Jackpotjoy and their sister sites rather than across the wider bingo world.
How Bubble Up Bingo Works
Underneath, it’s ordinary 90-ball bingo. You buy up to 60 tickets for the next game, or schedule them for later games in the same room, and the numbers are marked off for you as they’re called. One line, two lines and a full house each pay a prize, and the room tells you how many numbers you still need.
At Jackpotjoy, tickets are 10p or 20p. The game we joined was a 10p one with 37 players in, paying £3.30 for a line, £7.10 for two lines and £25 for the full house, with the Super 7 Jackpot standing at £143.09.
The room itself is laid out in three columns. On the left is a panel of mini games, in the middle are the game details (jackpot, players, balls called and the ticket button), and on the right is the chat, with chat hosts in the room. A timer at the bottom counts down to the next game.
The Double Up Bonus
Eight numbers are special in Bubble Up: 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77 and 88. They’re highlighted on your tickets and in the call history. If the number that completes your prize is one of them, the prize is doubled. That applies to all three prizes, so a line, two lines or a full house can each come in at double value.
Because every number has the same chance of completing a prize, you can estimate the odds. Eight of the 90 numbers are doubles, so a little under one prize in eleven should land on a double. Over a session of a few dozen games, you’d expect to see the bonus go off several times, just not necessarily on your ticket.
The Super 7 Jackpot
Most bingo jackpots ask you to finish within a set number of calls. Bubble Up’s Super 7 Jackpot doesn’t care how many numbers have gone. It pays only if you win the full house on number 7, and the winner takes it on top of the normal full house prize.
A share of every ticket sold goes into it, and it keeps growing until somebody wins it. By the same logic as the doubles, a full house should land on 7 about once in every 90 games, which is why it gets the chance to build between wins. It’s a game of pure luck: buying more tickets raises your chance of being the full house winner, but nothing changes which number finishes it.

Bubble Up and the Double Bubble Slot
The room is built on the Double Bubble slot. Jackpotjoy describes it as using the slot’s graphics, with the action set in the same bathroom as the slot, bubbles and all. If you know the slot, the look will be familiar straight away.
It’s still bingo underneath, though: no reels, no paylines, just a 90-ball ticket with two bonus rules on top. For other rooms built on slot brands, including Bouncy Balls Bingo, see the full list of bingo room games.
