Bingo is won by filling bingo cards. The first player to fill a card in a specific way wins the game, and it is often easy to continue the game and thus allow many people to win, depending on how the game is organized. Depending on the rules and the variation of bingo being played, the way to fill the card may differ. In the classic versio of bingo a player needs to fill a row or a column to win, but in other versions it may be necessary to fill the entire card, only find a single correct value, or maybe fill a specific pre-determined pattern in the card.

Bingo is played by drawing bingo cards with values, and then drawing random values using cards or balls or lottery. Every time a value is drawn, players mark the same value if they have it in their card. The first player to fill the card wins.

Bingo is an old game with a long history. Thus, currently there is a large variety of different bingo types with distinct rules. There is U Pick 'Em Bingo where players select the numbers they are going after, Quick Shot Bingo where numbers are pre-drawn and where bingo cards are more like lottery tickets, and Bonanza Bingo - to name only a few.

Online gambling and online bingo in the Philippines is legal, but the legal environment can be unnecessarily complicated. Gambling in general is overseen by several national agencies such as the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation. There are distinct regional jurisdictions with different rules, such as the Cagayan Economic Zone Authority.

However, all gambling is well regulated, and there is a licencing system for online casinos as well. The gambling is thus easy, legal, and safe for the consumers. And while the situation can be somewhat chaotic for casinos wishing to make money organizing the games, it is generally easy for the consumer to enjoy the excitement of the game.
