Rocket Bingo Review

It’s blast-off time at Rocket Bingo! Jet into space with this Jumpman Gaming powered bingo site, where your first £10 grants a go on the Mega Reel, with 500 Aztec Gems spins as its best prize. Not bad!

Keep reading our review below and find out exactly what bonuses and promotions await at a site that has been running since 2014.

Rocket Bingo Facts

Welcome Offer

With bright blue clouds and rockets shooting up into space, Rocket Bingo is a top site to launch (pun intended) on the Jumpman network. It sits alongside brands like Dove Bingo and Clover Bingo, plus the group has been around long enough to feel settled, with decent bonuses and prizes.

Fund your account with £10 or more and the Mega Reel unlocks, paying out in free spins on Aztec Gems. Hit the top prize and that’s 500 spins, though the reel could just as easily stop on something smaller, or on nothing at all.

Bonus Wagering

Wagering on free spin winnings is set at 10x, which is the legal maximum in the UK rather than anything unusual. If you do make a withdrawal before satisfying these wagering requirements, you will forfeit all remaining bonus funds.

The maximum you can keep is the standard network one. No matter how much bonus you build, only the value of your lifetime deposits converts to withdrawable cash, capped at £250. Real money is always staked before bonus funds, and only bonus wagers count towards clearing the requirement.

As usual, further T&Cs apply, so read them before making a deposit.

First Impressions

Rocket Bingo has recently been redesigned and now features several small planets and shooting stars on a white-and-dark-blue background. This gives the site a much more professional look than the previous cartoon-like design, and it’s also much easier to use thanks to its simple navigation bars.

The hero image deserves a mention. It is a woman on her sofa, phone in hand, wearing what is unmistakably a cardboard cut-out astronaut helmet. Nobody involved was taking the space theme too seriously, and the site is better for it.

Creating an account and getting registered takes just a few seconds. All you need to do is fill out the registration form with a few personal details, click join and then off you go.

Latest Promotions

6 promos sit on the offers page, and only two of them are open to a brand new player, so the calendar fills out as you go rather than all at once.

• Daily Wheel – One free turn a day, no deposit attached, paying out in spins.
• Turbo Wheel – Advertised as 50 or more free spins, and the one to read twice. The qualifying deposit is £100, which the tile does not shout about.
• Fluffy Fridays – A £250 pot shared between players staking on Friday evenings, from 8pm to 11pm.
• Drops & Wins – The year-long Pragmatic prize campaign, £25m in the pot, closing March 2027. You have to opt in for it to count.

Trading Since 2014, and Still Standing

Rocket Bingo launched in 2014, and the homepage owns up to it, reading “In 2014, we were the new kids on the block” before conceding that today “we’re essentially veterans”. That’s a long time in this market.

There’s harder evidence than the homepage copy, though. Several brands that shared this network have since shut their doors. Spice Bingo, Lollipop Bingo, Dear Bingo and Bingo Spirit have all gone, and players who once had accounts with them still turn up searching for Rocket Bingo as the nearest thing left standing.

The site also runs a members counter on the homepage, which stood at 17,534 on the day this review was written. Take it with a pinch of salt as a marketing device, but it is at least a number, and it is not one its rivals bother to publish.

None of that makes the games better. It does mean that if you open an account here, the odds of the site still being there next year are rather stronger than they were for many of its stablemates.

Bingo and Slots Games

With the bingo now on Playtech’s Virtue Fusion, there are 5 formats to pick from, from quick 36-ball Cash Cubes up to the 90-ball rooms, which take up the bulk of the lobby and include a Big Game every evening at around 9pm. The everyday rooms keep the next game only a few minutes away, and Spirit Twister skips the timer altogether, starting games on demand with a cap of 10 players. Prize pots are fairly decent overall, so there is not much to complain about.

Free tickets work in most rooms, and prices run from as little as 1p up to £2 if you want to really push the boat out.

The site has a great selection of slots and has secured many of the same games that appear on Dragonfish sites, like Fluffy Favourites, Sugar Train, and Irish Luck. So if you are familiar with that network, many of the slot games will also feel familiar.

There is a little casino here as well, though it is not a wing so much as a shelf. You’ll find 20p Roulette there, plus Adventures of Captain Blackjack and Blackjack Pulse Time.

Game Preview

Playing on Mobile

People do go looking for a Rocket Bingo app, and there isn’t one in either store. The site runs in the phone browser instead, which is where the hero image is aimed anyway, and the whole thing reflows down to a single column without losing the games menu.

Which fits, given the site’s own hero picture shows somebody doing exactly that on a sofa. With Cashier included, the browser version is the full product.

Signup and Login

Joining starts from the Rocket Bingo homepage, and you can do it in two ways.

The quickest is by using the PayPal Quick Registration feature. This lets you register automatically with your PayPal information while making your first deposit at the same time, and it takes less than a minute. Alternatively, you can fill in the registration form with the required information (full name, address and contact details) before choosing your username and password.

When you return later, the Rocket Bingo login appears in the top bar beside the Join button, and you can reset a forgotten password using a link under the login box.

Deposit Options

• Paysafecard
• Debit card
• Neteller
• Pay By Mobile
• Skrill
• PayPal

A £10 deposit gets you started, though you’ll want at least £20 in your balance before cashing out. If you’ve got less than that, a support agent can still pay it out on request. On the plus side, the payments team aims to process each request within 24 hours. PayPal pays out instantly once it’s approved.

Taking money out is free. The £2.50 charge is a deposit fee, and it only applies if you top up through your phone bill.

Licensing and Regulation

Rocket Bingo holds a full license to operate from the UK Gambling Commission under account number 39175. Jumpman Gaming Limited, the site’s owner, holds this license and has extensive industry experience, with over 150 other brands under its umbrella. Play from outside Great Britain and the Alderney Gambling Control Commission takes over instead.

The games are independently tested for fairness, and the operator promotes responsible gambling through partnerships with GamCare, Gambling Therapy and BeGambleAware.

All those years of trading haven’t bought the site a telephone, though. Live chat support keeps going until 9pm every night, plus an email queue answered within two working days.

Sister Sites

The following sites are powered by the same Jumpman Gaming software:

• Space Wins
• Lights Camera Bingo
• Mirror Bingo
• Zeus Bingo
• Daily Record Bingo

Searches for Rocket Bingo often arrive via Spice Bingo, Lollipop Bingo, Dear Bingo, and Bingo Spirit. Those four are closed, so there is nothing to sign up for on any of them, which is why we haven’t linked them.
