About this tool

Bingo Card Maker prints a full set of bingo cards in one go and helps you run the game. Choose classic 75-ball cards (B 1–15, I 16–30, N 31–45, G 46–60, O 61–75) with a free centre square, proper UK 90-ball tickets, or cards made from your own words, phrases or emoji for a baby shower, a classroom or a meeting.

The 90-ball tickets follow the real rules: three rows of five numbers, each column holding its own range (1–9, 10–19 up to 80–90), and every strip of six tickets using each number exactly once. Every set is checked so that no two cards are the same, and each card carries a number and a game number, so you can print the same set again later.

The PDF lays out 1, 2 or 4 cards to a page (6 tickets for 90-ball) on A4 or US Letter, with dashed cutting lines and a caller’s sheet at the end. On the night, the built-in caller draws numbers or words fairly, never repeats, can read each call aloud, and checks any card number for a line or a full house. It all runs in your browser: nothing is uploaded, and there is no sign-up or watermark.

How to use Bingo Card Maker

  2. Set the title, the free centre space text and a colour.
  3. Choose the number of cards (1 to 100), how many per page and the paper size. Use the arrows to look through the cards, or New cards to reshuffle.
  4. Press Download PDF and print. The last page is the caller’s sheet.
  5. To play, press Call next in “Call the game” for each draw, and type a card number into “Check a card” when someone shouts bingo.

Tips and good to know

  • For word bingo, add more words than the card needs. With exactly 24 words every card holds the same words, so many players finish at once.
  • Note the game number before printing. Typing it back in later, with the same settings, gives you the very same cards for checking winners.
  • Four cards per page suits A4 well for 75-ball and word cards; choose 1 per page for young children or anyone who needs large print.
  • Use the ink-saving grey theme and the 6-per-page strip layout for a big 90-ball night.
  • Read calls aloud uses your device’s own built-in voice, so it sounds different on each device.

Frequently asked questions

Are my words or cards uploaded?

No. The cards, the PDF and the caller all run inside your browser on your own device. Your word list is remembered only in this browser so it is there next time.

Is it free, and are there any limits?

Yes, it is free with no sign-up and no watermark. You can make up to 100 cards per set and as many sets as you like; word lists can hold up to 150 entries.

Does it work on a phone, and offline?

Yes. You can make cards and run the caller on a phone or tablet. After the page has loaded, the caller and preview keep working offline; the PDF maker loads the first time you download, so do that once while online.

Are all the bingo cards really different?

Yes. Each new card is compared with the rest of the set and any repeat is thrown away, and the preview confirms “All 30 cards are different”. If your word list is too short for the number you asked for, it tells you.

What is the difference between 75-ball and 90-ball bingo?

75-ball is the American game on a 5 × 5 card under the letters B, I, N, G, O, usually with a free centre square. 90-ball is the UK game on tickets of 3 rows and 9 columns, with 15 numbers each and prizes for one line, two lines and a full house.

Can I use emoji or pictures on the cards?

Emoji work on screen and in the PDF; type or paste them one per line. Pictures from your own files are not supported yet.

How does the caller check a winner?

Type the number printed under the winning card into “Check a card”. It compares that card with every call so far and names the completed rows, columns or diagonals, or one line, two lines or full house for 90-ball tickets.
