About the bingo
In a long plenary session attention drifts by itself. Give people something to watch for, and they listen more sharply than you asked:
Which words are going to come up today?
Put your own words on the card.
Share the link with your participants.
Whoever fills a row first calls bingo.
Frequently asked questions about the bingo
What is bingo in a meeting?
Participants get a card with words that are likely to come up during the gathering. Every time a word passes, they cross it off. Listening becomes active instead of passive.
How do I start a game?
Open the host panel, set your word list and share the player link with your participants. They open it on their own phone or laptop and each get a unique card.
Does everyone get the same card?
No. There are 250 unique cards, so participants have different combinations. That way not everyone wins at once.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. In the host panel you fill in your own list, matching the subject of the gathering. You can also save a list as a preset to use again later.
Is there an English version?
Yes. The tool exists in Dutch and English, each with its own player page and host panel.
How do I check whether someone really has bingo?
The player shows their card and the tool checks the combination. You don't have to keep score yourself.
Is the tool free?
Yes. Bingo is free to use, with no account and no installation. Participants open a link in their browser.
Can I use bingo in my own meeting environment?
Yes. Below the game there's an 'Embed code' button that copies the code you paste onto a screen in SpatialChat or on your own page. The allow="fullscreen" attribute is already in that code.
Bingo holds attention through a long session. We make more of meetings, with tools, techniques and years of experience.
