After a tough year for the industry, it’s time to celebrate a game that many took comfort in during lockdown
OnlineBingo.co.uk is giving bingo fans a chance to take part in the UK’s first ever official National Bingo Day with a week of exclusive content designed to bring bingo back into the conversation after a tough year for bingo halls and the industry at large.
During this week, the UK’s biggest bingo comparison site has already released an overview of National Bingo Day, with a list of reasons to love playing bingo at home or with your friends.
OnlineBingo.co.uk has also collaborated with some of the UK’s most well-known bingo halls, including Buzz Bingo and MrQ.com, to give readers an insight into how the industry has handled the countrywide lockdowns over the last 18 months. It was also an opportunity for these bingo-heads to share their favourite bingo memories and talk about how they will be celebrating the big day
National Bingo Day is being championed by the industry as a way to revitalise the game, and it’s clear from the interviews that bingo is clearly near and dear to staff and players alike.
Though National Bingo Day is about celebrating bingo as we know it today, OnlineBingo.co.uk’s bingo boffins have also produced a prophetic look into the future of bingo and what the future may hold for players, as technology improves and attitudes towards the game evolve and change. VR bingo party anyone?
National Bingo Day is being recognised in the UK for the first time this Sunday, June 27th. Whilst this will be Brits’ first chance to shout about our national love of bingo, fans in the US have been celebrating this national holiday for years.
This event comes at the end of a tough time for the industry, as bingo halls have been closed for most of the global pandemic. For many, bingo is more than just a game – it is a chance to socialise, catch up with friends and maybe bond over a house win.
Max Wright, editor of OnlineBingo.co.uk said: “We are proud to commemorate and support the first National Bingo Day this year. The past 18 months have been turbulent for the industry, especially for bingo halls which have been closed for most of the pandemic. This new, annual day of appreciation has presented us with a fantastic opportunity to work alongside bingo-industry members who operate land-based bingo halls for the first time, to celebrate the game of bingo however the fans choose to play.”

BETBY ACHIEVES GLI CERTIFICATION FOR PERU, EXPANDING ITS FOOTPRINT IN LATIN AMERICA’S REGULATED MARKETS
BETBY, a top-tier sports betting supplier, has received certification from Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) to provide its sportsbook solution in Peru’s regulated market. This certification marks another significant milestone in BETBY’s continued expansion across Latin America.
With the Peruvian government formalizing its regulated sports betting framework, GLI certification has emerged as a crucial requirement for providers aiming to serve licensed operators in the country. BETBY is now authorized to deliver its innovative and tailored sportsbook solutions in Peru’s rapidly expanding regulated betting market.
GLI’s certification, recognized as a benchmark for excellence, validates BETBY’s ability to meet Peru’s strict technical requirements, including those related to sportsbook functionality, information security management systems, and information security standards. Peru’s regulatory framework is primarily based on GLI-33 certification, which BETBY successfully achieved in early 2025. As a result, the company was well-positioned to swiftly meet the country’s compliance standards.
“Peru represents a key step in our broader Latin American growth strategy, as the region continues to adopt clearer regulatory frameworks for online sports betting,” said Ilze Ramolina, Head of Legal & Compliance at BETBY. “Securing GLI certification for this market, which has a growing digital infrastructure and tech-savvy audience, allows us to support licensed operators in launching compliant and competitive offerings from day one. This is yet another step forward in our mission to deliver tailored, localized solutions that meet both local requirements and regional expectations across the region.”
This achievement follows BETBY’s previous certification for the Brazilian market, solidifying its presence in two of Latin America’s most promising jurisdictions. The supplier’s flexible and highly localised sportsbook platform, combined with its commitment to compliance, positions it as a trusted partner for operators looking to thrive in newly regulated environments.
By entering the Peruvian market, BETBY continues to demonstrate its strategic focus on Latin America, providing hyper-localized, engaging, and secure sports betting experiences for both operators and players.

Connecting Saints fans like never before
The partnership will see Midnite and Southampton collaborate throughout the season to connect Saints supporters to their club like never before. A host of supporter and community activities will be launched to engage and involve the fanbase in the build-up to the season and throughout the 2025/26 campaign.
Southampton and Midnite will also collaborate to support Saints Foundation during the course of the season to support its fundraising ambitions and experiences for participants. Saints Foundation is the club’s charity, which works to provide life-changing opportunities to help people and communities in the city thrive.
Greg Baker, Chief Revenue Officer for Southampton Football Club, said: “We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our latest club partner. Midnite is disrupting its sector and developing a dynamic challenger brand.
