Hippo Bingo Casino

Hippo Bingo Review

For a virtual bingo hall, Hippo Bingo offers a nice range of other games of chance, including slots and progressives. The site was put into motion by Cassava Enterprises (Gibraltar) Limited in 2011 and its vibrant theme, although simple and non-intrusive, makes one feel at ease and motivated. The entire backdrop shows calm water (the favourite surroundings of hippos) and the logo, as well as buttons and details, are done in bright pink/purple for a stronger contrast. Hippo Bingo provides services for customers in Great Britain which are operated by 888 UK Limited, and this department is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission. The rest of the activities on the Hippo Bingo platform are conducted under the laws of Gibraltar. The site is very regular when it comes to bonus deals and promos; there are constant offers, seasonal bonuses and one-time deals bettors can season their play with.

Software & Games

Hippo Bingo keeps the focus on the fun. As part of the Dragonfish network, HippoBingo.com houses games made by a variety of providers and gaming studios. The primary products you can find available on the site are bingo games, but the brand benefits from the best slots on the market, as well. Some of the suppliers are SG Gaming, NetEnt, Pariplay, IGT, Eyecon, and Amaya. By clicking on the Our Games link, you will reach the page with some of the featured games which include Elements, Starburst, Fruit Shop and Cleopatra. There is a separate category with progressive jackpots and that’s pretty much all the content you can access, if we don’t count the bingo room. Hippo Bingo is compatible with mobile devices, whether they run on iOS or Android, so you can tell your friends how you’re carrying a hippo in your pocket, just for laughs.

Slots

The number of slots is considerable at Hippo Bingo; the only problem is that their collection isn’t very systematic. The titles are listed in no particular order and there is no search bar to help you with the browsing. That may not be much of a problem with experienced stakers, but some of the more recreational and moderate gamblers may find it tricky to find their way around all those slot machines. The fact remains that Hippo Bingo houses traditional fruit slots and newer video slots – the choice is yours, one way or the other. You can play Street Fighter II or Mad Monkey by Amaya, or go for Enchanted Prince, Piggy Payout and Lion Dance by Eyecon. IGT provides all the Cleopatra games (Cleopatra, Cleopatra II, Cleopatra Plus and Cleopatra Megajackpots) as well as the titles from the Monopoly series. Jack Hammer, Jimi Hendrix, Mega Fortune and Dazzle Me represent NetEnt’s workshop, while WMS/SG deliver Hot Blooded, Tetris Super Jackpots, Montezuma and Raging Rhino.

Table Games

Table games are unavailable at this point on the Hippo Bingo platform. It may be because table games bring that authentic casino atmosphere with them, while the Hippo Bingo management tries to keep it light and bingo-oriented, or at least keep everything within the instant win concept.

Other Games

You won’t find any scratch lotteries, craps or roulette at Hippo Bingo, but there’s plenty of bingo to go round. The brand’s flagships are 90-ball Bingo, 75-Ball Bingo and High 5 Bingo. Both 90-ball Bingo and 75-ball Bingo are well-known, and everyone who has ever bought a bingo ticket is probably familiar with the basic premises of these games. High 5 Bingo is a loose variation of regular bingo, in which there are 5 ways to win – the player wins only if he/she hits a row of 5 numbers diagonally, across or from top to bottom of the card.

Live Casino

Hippo Bingo Casino does not feature any live dealer games for now. The platform is still quite away from expanding in this direction, as it seems.

Banking

One player can assign up to 5 different banking methods to his/her account at Hippo Bingo. Accepted deposit and withdrawal methods include Visa and Mastercard credit cards, Neteller, Visa debit card, PaysafeCard, PayPal e-wallet, EntroPay, Bank Wire and Apple Pay. Customers are also free to call toll-free phone numbers (two of them, for players in and out of the UK) and arrange their transfers by speaking with the qualified casino representatives. The minimum deposit is £5, and the minimum withdrawal is the same. Hippo Casino employs a 2-day withdrawal processing time which adds to the transaction processing by the banking method you’ve chosen. All that considered, withdrawals are completed in 3-10 working days, depending on the banking service.

Support

Paying a visit to the Help page will reveal several options of contacting support: instant help, email and telephone assistance. Instant help service can be accessed by logging in and going to the Help Room. Agents are available from 10 am to 2 am. Emails are replied in 72 hours and the toll-free phone support is open 7 days a week, between 10 am and 2 am. You can find answers to frequently asked questions on the FAQ page.
