The cards have 3 lines and 9 columns. Each line on the cards has 5 numbers that means that the cards have total of 15 numbers ranging from 1 to 90. The players will have to cross off the numbers if it is the same as the number on balls as they are drawn from the container. To win the player will have to match all the numbers on the line one their game cards as the balls are drawn. There are different winning for each of the different options like: one complete line, two complete lines of all the lines completed on the card will win you different amounts. The game finishes when the player manages to cross all the numbers on game card and shouts Bingo! After that a new game begins.

Each of these five columns carries the name of one of the letters in the word BINGO. Each player buys one or more game cards, each one with a unique winning combination of numbers. The game cards are made up of 25 boxes with 5 lines and 5 columns. Out of 25 boxes 24 have number ranging from 1 to 75 and the box in the middle has the word free or an equivalent to that.
