Bingo Passes: Build Your Own Bingo Card in Experience Builder

Turn your pass into a game of bingo. Build a 3×3 to 5×5 card of places or categories, give every passholder their own shuffled card, and reward each bingo.

West Virginia SWINGO mobile pass - create your own Bingo game with Bandwango.

Turn your pass into a game of bingo. Bingo Passes give every passholder their own card of places or themes to check off, with prizes for each bingo and a bigger one for filling the whole card. And you can now build one yourself in Experience Builder.

West Virginia's Almost Heaven SWINGO Challenge: a 5×5 bingo card of swing-themed squares in a mobile pass, with the Bingo Reward below

A regular pass asks visitors to check off a list. A Bingo Pass asks them to plan a route. Each square is a place or a theme, every check-in marks a square, and five in a row earns a prize. It's simple to understand and hard to put down.

What you can do

  • Size the card. Choose a 3×3, 4×4 or 5×5 card, add an optional free middle square, and swap the word across the top for your own (up to 10 letters, like SWINGO).
  • Squares as places or themes. In Places mode, each square is one place. In Categories mode, each square is a theme, like "Breweries" or "Sunset view," and checking in at any matching place marks it off. Show category squares as names or as images.
  • A different card for everyone. Each passholder gets their own shuffled card, so no two people chase the same route.
  • Squares with a schedule. Give a category active or blackout dates, so a "Festival day" square is only available that weekend.
  • Prizes for every milestone. Reward bingos and a full-card blackout. Points are optional, and passholders can see the prizes waiting for them in their Rewards tab from day one.
  • Check-ins you can trust. Squares use the same check-in validation as your other gamified passes: GPS, PIN, QR code or quiz.

Why it matters: Filling a card means visiting a lot of different places, not just the most popular one. Bingo spreads visits across your destination and gives people a reason to come back until the card is done.

How to get started

  1. Create a new pass and choose Bingo.
  2. Add your check-in activities. You'll need at least enough to fill the card (for a 5×5 card with a free square, that's 24).
  3. On Bingo Card, pick the size, the free square, your header word and Places or Categories mode.
  4. On Prizes, choose the bingo and blackout prizes.
  5. Publish. The builder's checklist flags anything missing first, like a place without a category.

Tip: Categories mode works best with themes that have several matching places, so passholders have options for every square.
