Bonuses

Kiwi Bingo has one of the most generous bonus programs on the net for loyal players. But even as a new Member, we'll Double Your Money immediately. For starters, every single deposit you make at Kiwi Bingo will earn an additional 50% in Bonus dollars - turning, for example, your $30 deposit into $45. If it' your very first deposit we will add a further 50% - that's doubling your money!

Keep reading - it gets even better :)

Make your deposits with one of our Preferred Payment Methods (NETeller, Moneybookers, Wire Transfer or BankDraft) and get ANOTHER 10% on each deposit. THAT'S 110% FOR YOUR FIRST DEPOSIT AND 60% ON ALL OTHER DEPOSITS! WOW!

The First Deposit Bonus of 100% or 110% is limited to one bonus per new player. Existing account holders are not eligible. The maximum bonus on any deposit (first or any other) using our preferred payment methods is set at $120 and for regular payment methods is $100.

Deposit bonuses are paid into your Bonus Balance, but have to be redeemed by purchasing bingo cards or playing the in-game Slots or Scratch Cards. (See "How it Works" below).

Funds which are deposited into your account following the reversal of a withdrawal do not qualify for a deposit bonus.

Bonuses that you earn in the Chat Room will be paid into your Bonus Balance and can be used immediately. You can only qualify for Chat Bonuses if you are playing in the current bingo game and you are actively in chat. Players who have not purchased cards, will not be entitled to receive Chat Bonuses.

Bonus System Overview

Kiwi Bingo has a generous bonus scheme but it is important that you understand how it works. If you are a regular player at Kiwi Bingo, you will receive three types of bonus. Deposit bonuses, which are awarded when you make a deposit, Chat Game Bonuses, which are awarded when you win one of our regular Chat games and Promotional bonuses.

Your account at Kiwi Bingo has two main balances which are visible at the bottom left of your screen.

BALANCE

This is your Cash Balance and is where all your deposits and your winnings will be credited.

BONUS BALANCE

This is where all your bonus money is paid. If you move your mouse pointer over the Bonus Balance, a pop-up window will show you the breakdown of your Bonus Balance as follows:

Bonus money available for play (Remember, that any cash in your Balance is used before Bonus money.)
Bonus money that has to be redeemed before it can be used for play

How it Works

When you receive a bonus for a Chat Game, it will be paid into your Bonus Balance and can be used immediately to buy bingo cards. Remember, that any cash in your Balance is used before your Bonus money.
All deposit bonuses and some promotional bonuses have to be redeemed before they can be used for play.
These bonuses are redeemed by purchasing bingo cards or playing the in-game Slots or Scratch Cards. As you purchase bingo cards or play on the in-game Slots and Scratch cards, this bonus money is redeemed at the rate of 50% of the wager.
e.g. if you spend $2 on bingo cards, in-game slots or scratchers, $1 of any unredeemed bonus money will be redeemed.
Bonus money cannot be cashed out and remains the property of Kiwi Bingo. Please note that if you withdraw funds, any bonus money in your Bonus Balance that has not been redeemed will be removed. If you do not wish to lose these bonuses, we recommend that you add sufficient funds to purchase cards to redeem bonus money into your Bonus Balance before making the withdrawal.
A detailed breakdown of the funds in your Bonus Balance can be seen by moving the cursor over the Bonus Balance in the game.

When you make a withdrawal any funds in your Bonus Balance that have not been redeemed are removed. If you do not wish to lose this bonus money, you can first “release” it by purchasing bingo cards or playing the in-games slots/scratchers. Remember, every $1 you spend on bingo cards, Scratchers or in-game Slots releases $0.50 from your Non Playable Bonus Balance into your Playable Bonus Balance.
