There are some exceptions where you do not need a licence to run bingo, including bingo for fundraising.
If you are providing bingo from a premises, you'll also need a licence from the local licensing authority where the premises will be located. Your licence must cover the appropriate activity. You must have a licence if you want to run any kind of online or 'remote' bingo, such as using gambling websites and apps. Generally, you need a licence from us to provide bingo to players for commercial gain in Great Britain.
