Offers from Lucky Pants Bingo
Lucky Pants Bingo (or just Lucky Pants as it is now called) has Playtech bingo rooms but is now being marketed largely as a slots site.
Lucky Pants Bingo was originally launched by Stride Gaming way back in 2013, as a sister site to Kitty Bingo. Both sites (plus two others) ran on proprietary bingo software. Rather than launching any more sites on this platform, Stride went on a massive acquisition spree, buying two other companies running dozens of (mainly) Dragonfish bingo brands. This gave them control of 10% of the UK bingo market.
In 2019, Stride Gaming was itself taken over by the Rank Group. Rank decided to phase out the bingo software (which was showing its age and lacked liquidity) and in October 2020, Lucky Pants Bingo moved on to Playtech’s Virtue Fusion bingo platform, sharing bingo rooms with Rank’s flagship site Mecca Bingo. It’s now been redesigned and rebranded as just Lucky Pants to put the emphasis more on slots.
Playtech’s bingo product is deservedly very popular and while Lucky Pants doesn’t have quite as many bingo rooms as Mecca Bingo, it’s still a great line-up with substantial prize money and a strong community.
As well as a regular 75 ball room, an 80 ball room and several 90 ball rooms (including a speed room and rooms that run free and penny bingo games), there’s the Virtue Fusion specials Deal Or No Deal 75 and 90, Cash Cubes, Age of the Gods Bingo, Fluffy Favourites Bingo, Rainbow Riches Bingo and Spirit Twister Bingo.
At Lucky Pants you can also play BOB (Best Odds Bingo), Emoji Bingo and Burst Bingo which were previously exclusive to Mecca – but do be aware that the welcome bonus can’t be used in these rooms.
This is another area which has been taken to the next level thanks to Rank. There’s hundreds of games from all manner of providers. For example, progressive jackpots include Mega Moolah ,WowPot and IGT Megajackpots games as well as the more usual Jackpot King and many titles by Eyecon. Not all of these are visible in the lobby and you may need to use the search box to find them.
Bouncy Balls, Big Top Tombola and all the classic slots you’d expect to find at a Virtue Fusion bingo site are also available – but only as minigames inside the bingo lobby.
The slot games lobby at Lucky Pants is the same as at Mecca Bingo. It shows a selection of the most popular games and to bring the rest into view you’ll need to search by name. Annoyingly the search box only shows the first 10 results so you may have to dig deeper with a more specific search to find the game you want. This is made slightly easier by each game having an info page which can be accessed from the lobby or from search; here, you can find details of the gameplay and of any bonus features (though not of Return to Player – you’ll need to look in the game help files for that).
New release slot games have their own lobby area and it’s frequently updated.
As well as slots, there’s a selection of Slingo games and some scratchcards (which can be found via the search box). Although there’s also a live casino with roulette and Evolution game shows, none of these games are visible in the lobby; although there’s an area called Casino it only has slot games in it. So again, you have to search to find these games.
Promotions at Lucky Pants are very much slot focused (as you’d expect given the direction the site is clearly headed in). The bingo promotions they do have are run by the Playtech network or Mecca Bingo. There’s many events run in conjunction with game providers. And (at the time of writing) there’s a free daily game (for players who have made at least one deposit) where you can win free spins, slot bonus, bingo bonus or cash (or nothing).
The range of deposit methods is quite restricted. Instant bank transfer or a debit card, used either directly or via Apple Pay, are the best options. The other choices can’t be used to claim the welcome offer.
To play on your phone, you can use the Lucky Pants mobile app which can be downloaded from the Play Store or App Store or just go to the site from your phone’s web browser.
Although Lucky Pants has repositioned itself as more of a slots site than a bingo site, the bingo product remains excellent, making it the ideal bingo site for players who prefer slots offers but also want to be able to access bingo rooms with worthwhile prizes and that sense of community you can only get on Virtue Fusion.
At Best New Bingo Sites all of our reviews are completely honest and written by industry experts. We aim to present all our offers as transparently as possible with a full explanation of the terms and conditions. We receive commission from the sites we feature and this may affect how prominently they appear on our site and their position in our listings.
There’s a Safer Gambling Hub with a detailed description of how to use the safer gambling tools (the usual net deposit limits, session reminders, take a break and self exclusion). If you self exclude it applies to all sites with the Rank Interactive (Gibraltar) Ltd licence and not just Lucky Pants.

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS SITE. I have deposited quite a bit of money over these past months only ever playing on slots. First time I withdrew on Monday £200. Checked my account today and they have voided my withdrawal and to add insult they have given me £5 in bonus instead!! I have sent an email and await their reply of excuses. Absolute disgrace, con, con, con!
Slots are a joke over £900 in cleopatra not one bonus round. Don’t join this site its a joke.
Banned for playing to much free bingo took over £50 in deposits and have refused to pay back..
I played about 16 games a day so watch out for this bunch keep your balance very low because they might take your money.
