Online bingo takes a backseat in Gala Bingo May promo
Gala Bingo is always looking for something different to offer its faithful online bingo players and May is no exception, although this month Gala Bingo is wanting to encourage customers to its scratchcards and slots offerings.
The Gala Bingo May promotion is called 'May the Cash be with you' and has already focussed on the popular Galaxy Bingo scratchcard and X Factor slot this month. Week commencing 17th May will see the spotlight fall on the Mini Springtime Scratchcard mini game that can be played at the same time as the online bingo games.
£300 can be won every day. Each day one player will win £100, two players will win £25 each, five more will win £10 each, ten will win £5 and 25 players will each win £2. The only requirement to be in with a chance of winning is to deposit and play £5 on the game of the week, ensuring that the correct bonus code shown on the website is quoted when the deposit is made. Then, whether the player wins or loses their name will be entered into that days prize draw.
Players that love the games and play at least £5 more than four times in a week will also gain entry to a separate draw to win a weekly Jackpot of £400.
Gala Bingo must be confident enough in the loyalty of its online bingo players to know that by steering them to other games they are just enhancing the online gaming experience and not tempting them to give up on the actual online bingo in favour of scratchcards and slots.
